What's the buyout price?

IMHO it is not a good idea to buy a car that you leased at the end of the lease. Almost always the residual value of the car at lease end will be higher than the actual value of the car if you were to buy a similar car in the market. ]

It is $8345 and is run around 90K. Similar car I have checked on the web, it cost above 10K ..so is the concern

It is typical for Japanese cars to have higher monthly lease payments and lower end of the lease buyout value. IMO, it is better to buy it out of lease since you already drive the car and know the history well.
OTH, most american cars used to have lower lease payments and high end of lease valuations - it is better not to buy those.
Hope that helps.
