can someone please give me some advice. i leased a 08 accord exl v6. absoutely hate it. problem is i rolled about 5800 negativity in from a 06 mustang GT LEMON.
well anyway wife just leased a 08 tl. i went to the same dealer to see if he can do anyhting for me on a 08 tl. this is what he came up with. i owe 30k pay off on the accord. they will give me 23k therefore rolling 7k negativity into the TL. I would need to put down 4k and my payments would be 529 a month for a 48/10k miles lease. i am pretty sure the selling price is 34k ( with the negativity) for the new tl. without the negativity 27k.
can someone please give me advice if the dealer is giving me a good deal or trying to pull a fast one. i hate to get in deeper but really want out of the accord.
i can be emailed at davidroscomcast.net any help is GREATLY appreciated before i pull the trigger on this...

Out of curiosity, what do hate so much about the 2008 Honda EXL V6 that you can't live with and therefore are willing to take such a loss?

2008stype: May I ask how much you paid for your Type-S?? What part of the country are you from. I am looking for the best possible deal in the Tri-state Philly area for a Type-S. Thanks!

Mike,
 
Thanks for the tip. I was wondering what product to use. A co-worker has an older M-5 and was using a product called Hide Food. This seemed to work for him. So far the S is great. Getting the same MPG as my 01 Accord V-6, 86 more HP for the cost of premium.

The transmission issue is old news. TL had a bad washer in the 01-02 which caused about a 5% failure rate. This was solved years ago and Honda made good on the bad trannies. My 01 Accord V-6 got a 73 month 70K mile extended warantee by Honda (I had no problems).

I bought my S about 5 months ago when they had the 2500 off. I bought mine from Rizza Acura in Chicago (southern burbs). I paid a bit over 36K out the door complete (including sales tax and Illinois title transfer). I got mudflaps and no DOC fee included. Chicago has a 1/2 % additional sale tax and an $100/car fee as well. Rizza has a good web sales staff and they seem to move a lot of cars so it might be worth your while to send them an email.. I worked with Chuck. Dale this the other half of the internet sales team. If your buying for out of state I believe you still will have to pay IL sales tax, if it less than your home state you will pay the difference upon registration, if it is less your stuck for the difference.
 
I think the S is a much better car that the "std" TL so I recommend spending the extra $.
