If you can't afford to pay $2,000 - $5,000 more than what is estimated here, then maybe you should be looking at a different car??

Honestly, if you are planning on leasing and putting down the minimum needed, then your payment will be over $1,000/month. Maybe your monthly car payment could be used more wisely??? i.e., paying student loan payments, buying a house, paying off your outstanding credit, etc....
I don't think people are all that concerned about a 2-3k difference. You must be aware that there are several sources who predicted ~$62k base, and elsewhere in the world the car has been market up 20%+ from 06 to 08. That would be significant. I'd still buy it though even at that price.
