If you're thinking of doing it for yourself, everyone I've talked to has been less-than-thrilled with the experience, so my first recommendation would be "reconsider." If you still need to, I'd carefully read every tiny bit of the fine print, as there can be some nasty boobytraps in there, and you don't want to try negotiating those after you've signed. Not that you need me to tell you this, but you did ask, and Male Answer Syndrome is kicking in.
If you're doing it for work, on the other hand, then potential expenses are not such a hassle, but I'd find out things like how many miles it's likely to be driven in a given year. I'd then try to negotiate for somewhat over that when getting the contract written, the best-laid plans of mice and men being what they are. Again, "watch out for sneaky penalty clauses," and "shop around" come to mind as advice.
Not sure why I'm trying to answer this, since I've never leased a car in my life, but I guess it's that Male Answer Syndrome again...

Is this personal, or for work?
