I purchased a MDX Sport w/o Ent in Central CT in January. I added the roof rails and bars and paid $43,475. The dealer had the exact truck I wanted sitting on the lot and I made phone calls to surrounding dealers and was suprised how willing they were to give me a price over the phone but I would have had to wait for the one I wanted for who knows how long. Every dealer told me the Sport was hard to come by. I just used their figures to negotiate with the dealer that had the truck.
 
Ulitmately I think I may have been able to do a couple hundred dollars better but I've been very happy with the Sport. It is worth getting if you are considering.

jmpage2: it is easy. simply search the profile of the person in question and determine where they are located. then do a google search for the state sales tax for that location. then you know how much the tax was. it's not rocket science.

hpowders-
 
I too live in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and have been shopping around to lease the new MDX. My current MDX lease does not expire until July, I have been shopping around and have found the dealers in our area to be very willing to negotiate at 700-800 below invoice, although they are tacking on the destination charge and advertising fees to that number (which makes me come out at invoice). I agree with what you are saying about the dealerships being slow. However, I feel that the lease deals are really good right now and I am afraid of what will happen after 4-31. Maybe we can share information and help each other out. Let me know. Thanks,

Thinkingly logically, with summer driving season almost upon us and the inevitable higher gas prices that come with it, MDX inventories have to be building up through the summer. People are already avoiding SUV's/COV's and their lousy mileage like the plague. Check out sales figures lately? Dealers can't give them away. MDX sales have been flat.
 
The dealers should be treating you very well when July rolls around and those MDX's are beginning to pile up. Also, a few months down the road, they must make room for the 2009 MDX's. Everything sounds like it will be in your favor.
 
 I am looking for a base model and I most likely will lease. A 2 year lease sounds probable because I do want to turn it over and get the power lift gate base model. I would not pay more than $500 a month, after-taxes, no cap. cost reduction, just basic fees (acquisition fee) and security deposit up front.

You are right; I should wait. The 2 lease payments I have remaining have to come from somewhere! I am also looking to lease a base model. I will probably do a 3 year lease. Thanks for your input.

Thanks jk7. Could you provide the name of the dealership that you made your deal with? I thought about waiting, but it may be a moot point with the fact that so few Sport models are produced and that my trade, a GMC Acadia (I'm done with domestics!) will be quickly depreciating at a faster rate the longer I keep it. Thanks again.

Anytime. You should do just fine in July.
 
Well, we know Acura will be moving 2 MDX's this summer in Florida.

Question about residual by rajosmom
Apr 22, 2008 (6:58 pm)

Replying to: hpowders (Apr 22, 2008 7:02 am)

I am a little confused. One dealer is telling me that the residual is 58% on a 12,000 mile per year lease for a base model MDX. Does this sound right?
