It's more like upfront paying a rented Lambo and the car dealer can order it back anytime without notice and reason. You know it's rented although you paid a huge sum (often as high as a new Lambo) but it might have been the only way to get that specific model. You just hope they are a nice company and let you drive as long as possible. Also, you can't resell it either ofc.
