Hi Car_man,
 
Thanks for your analysis. Well, they reduced it to:
 
$513.94 ($479.20 pre tax) for 36 months with 12k miles per year with $860.95 due at signing.
 
Will I do better negotiating $37,000 as the purchase price and go with the special lease through AHFC?
 
I am supposed to go to the dealer tomorrow morning.
 
Thanks!

In general the purchase price has absolutely nothing to do with getting the lease special. The lease special determines the residual (% of MSRP) and the money factor. These factors are indtpendent of the purchase price. First negotiate the lowest puchase price, then ask them to give you their buy rate from AHFC, without a markup. That is the starting point of the negotiation.

Hi vsaxena,
 
But Car_man said that the $1500 dealer cash is not compatible with the special lease from AHFC. Therefore, the deal would be $35200 + $1500 = $36700. That is $300 over invoice (including destination). Maybe I could get them down to $36500. If I'm getting $35200 for the purchase price, then they are probably using another bank.
 
Thanks.

Hey, Someone may want to fully check on this but I was told that the lease deal was good with the marketing support as long as the lease was not 36 months. The dealer in the miami area said they were doing 39 months so that they could take advantage of both. Hope this helps, Will

I purchased the car on June 5' 2005 for $38,000, touring with Navi without DVD. It seems they are selling around $1000 below invoice for sage brush. The invoice price is $39200. The lease deal for Acura is excellent. They used the Honda lease company with residual value of $24,300. Initially want to get Odessey but the one with Nav is hard to get. It ends up almost the same for lease price because of the residual value.
Out the door $931 (license, tax and frist month payment) with $514 (with tax monthly) for 36 month 36000 miles.
 
The Acura or Honda has best price for 36 months lease. Dealership always tries to sell you the 39 months lease since they seem less both actually more for the price you paid

Hi Car_man,
Thanks for your posting. I am planning to lease 2005 MDX and I live in the bay area. In the above article, you quoted a price for lease. Where can I find this deal? I am looking to lease in a day or two. Your help is appreciated.

Btw, this is my first leasing experience.

You're welcome kwyoon. AHFC's lease program on the 2005 MDX is more attractive than you are likely to find through an independent bank. The lower the selling price that you are able to negotiate is, the lower your lease payment will be.

Hi fsudreyer. Honda Finance's special lease money factors on the MDX are only good on leases up to 36 months in length and are not compatible with the $1,500 dealer cash. If you opt to lease through Honda Finance for longer than 36 months, you can take advantage of the dealer cash but your truck's money factor jumps from .00160 to .00250. It may turn out that one can get a lower monthly payment by leasing for a longer term, especially a 48 month term, and taking advantage of the dealer cash instead of leasing with the special money factor for 36 months.
