Ain't got a hundred large to dump on a new Tesla Roadster (http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/24/production-tesla-roadster-gets-glorious-hands-on-stifle-your-en/)? Fret not, as the outfit famous for producing the world's first commercially viable electric supercar now has another option for you to ponder: leasing. For those unfamiliar, it's somewhere in between buying one outright and swiping one while the salesperson's not looking, and it'll require just over $12,000 up front along with 36 payments of $1,658 in order to temporarily own the car of your dreams. Of course, that's just a model scenario based on a Roadster with an $111,005 MSRP, though the somewhat snazzier Roadster Sport (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/08/tesla-roadster-sport-gets-taken-for-a-test-drive-photo-shoot/) is also included in the deal. Come to think of it -- if you get in on a lease now, there's a good chance that the Volt (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Volt/) you pre-ordered will finally be in stock by the time you bid your Tesla a fond farewell.
