njgladiator,
 
I just leased a 04 MDX Touring
48month/12k miles a year lease through AHFC
$2,500 down
$435/month (total with tax and fees) Based on a .00215 money factor.
 
I paid $35,840 for the MDX Touring ($163 over invoice)
Edmunds TMV is $39,545 (which is MSRP)
They cut me a check back for the equity in my trade, minus the $2,500 Down payment and first month's payment.
 
Don't freak out just yet!
Here is where they will make their money...
My trade, a 2001 Ford Lightning...
Edmunds trade in value for Outstanding Condition w/ 23k miles was $21,280 on the day I traded it in.
I got $21,500 ($220 more than Edmunds). Not bad. I was happy with that, since I tried to sell it privately for 6 weeks at $25k (lowered to $24k then $23k) with no serious buyers. However, I went back to the dealer to drop of the second set of keys for the Lightning and saw they had my trade listed for $27,999. Maybe they will find a someone to over pay that much, but will most likely sell it for $25k and still make money on the total deal.
 
I'm sure if I sold it on my own and my trade was not a factor, they would have never sold the MDX to me for the price they did. They need to make money somewhere.
 
The business office women said she never saw a MDX lease for this low... Maybe true, but they will make money on my trade, which I feel is fair.
 
Everyone I met at the dealer was great and I would highly recommend them (Germain of Naples).
The gave little pressure and treated me with respect.
The salesman did say to send him potential buyers but try not to mention this deal, because they could not do it again. He went on to say that I got the manager on a very slow day towards the end of a very slow month and they really need to move some Acuras.
 
We are really happy with our MDX and feel good about the deal we made.

WoW!! Congratulations Jamber !! you're either a great negotiator or they were really really slow. I only wish to get close to those numbers when I try to make a deal.
 
thanks again

I have been asking around and the dealers in Maryland say $500-1k under MSRP. Thats no where what you did. Anyways, I am really going to look further when the humming problem is fixed by Acura.

I called the Acura dealers in the San Jose area and got quotes on line or over the phone from all but Sunnyvale Acura.
 
The Pleasanton Auto Mall had the lowest price at $41,045 for the 04 Touring MDX with NAV and RES. I was told they had the color I wanted but after driving 40 miles to get there, they told me they didn't have the car.
 
Hopkins Acura in Redwood City matched the price and also restored my faith in car dealers. Very good experience with them. Very straitforward. They didn't try to push any add-ons.
 
Got the Midnight Blue. I must be the only one who likes it since they are discontinuing the color.
 
Thanks for all who posted here. It was a great help to read what others were paying.

Mark, you certainly got a good deal. The options alone amounts to $2337 and the MSRP is $41745. For $40715 is a steal. Let me put it this way, you got free options and $1030 off MSRP. Good job!
