Consumer Reports is likely reporting an average, with actual prices both higher and lower. If not, they're dead wrong.
Out of the 10 dealerships from which I solicited quotes (nationwide), my average price (including destination and dealer fees, but not TT&L) was about $42k for a 2012 MDX with Tech Package. Seven dealers offered quotes below the average, three offered quotes above.
These prices did not include the Acura loyalty/conquest offer. If you qualify for those, subtract $1000 off of any price.
A GREAT price for a 2012 MDX Tech is around $40k (including destination and dealer fees) - around $39k if you qualify for loyalty/conquest. You may have to travel and negotiate for a great deal.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. While encountered a few dealers who were legit and genuinely wanted to make a deal, I encountered just as many who were completely full of xxxx and a couple who were downright shady - something a bit surprising for a "premium" brand.

Hi, we signed a deal yesterday to lease a 2012 MDX and are located in Central NJ. After reading your posts here, it seems like what might have been a fantastic deal, might not be so great after all. We signed a 36 month lease and our payment is $460 per month. It is for 12k miles per year on a base model. Sticker was about $43k and we qualified for a rebate because we are current Lexus owners. This is a no money down lease, but are paying first month payment of $460, bank fee of $595, NJ Supplemental Titling fee of $180, Registration and Title fee of $310, Doc Fee is $296, online processing for $6.75 and $7.50 for some tire fee. This totals $1,855.25. I keep thinking about our experience and what seemed so pleasant and natural, might have been a "typical sales technique" to make us feel comfortable and to get us to sign. Does this sound like a good deal?

Im not sure on the price of the car since I got the advance but I found a website you shoulda check your prices out before you buy your accessories. Unless they give you your accessories for free.

I eventually got my MDX w/ Tech from Park Acura in Akron, OH for $44,100 OTD. They were very nice to deal with. I do like Airport Acura. They have a nice location and wonderful staff, but they could only do $45,100 (or at least they said). I know I could have gotten a better deal at Pokanka, but I'm just going to pretend that I didn't lol.
In regards to accessories, I deal with auto parts and part managers at dealerships and was able to snag the necessary genuine accessories at 10% over dealer cost. You can find some great deals on eBay or Curry Aucra Parts or H and A Accessories.

Would you mind telling me how you got internet offers? I'm trying to get a lease rate that some of the other people here have gotten - base MDX w/$460ish monthly payment. The one dealer I went to locally was nowhere near that price. Thanks!

Hello Guys, In the market for a MDX, Have a good dealer offering MDX advance + Entertainment with few accessories like:
CROSS BARS - SILVER, Rails, silver
ADVANCE RUNNING BOARDS
ALL-SEASON FLOOR MATS
Mileage 29350 for $38450+tax.
Really love the extra safety features of the advance, and according to my research this is around 8K to 10K lower than what ppl have been able to get 2012 Advance/entertainment for.
Do u guys think its a good price or should I go for 2012 Tech hunting spree and try to get something around 40K.
Any input appreciated guys!
