I saw this with inexpensive manual Japanese imports the last time I shopped ~4 years ago. In particular lowend civics & Subaru imprezas were holding their value such & the dealer incentives & financing made the calculation essentially even. I have friends that said the same thing about certain diesel sedans (pre mpg scandal) but never calculated it myself.
