#2472 of 2628 Never leased..questions on 2 vehicles

I'll try to make this as brief as possible! My husband and I have always purchased our vehicles but after wanting new vehicles every 2-3 years, we've quickly learned that leasing looks like a better option for us. We are both looking at Acura's and noticed they have leasing offers on the models we're interested in.
I'm looking at a 2012 MDX - lease offer is - 2012 MDX 6 Speed Automatic Featured Special Lease - $0 Due at Lease Signing, $510/month 35 months. Details say it's for the base model (MSRP 43,925.00), I'm wanting to get one with Tech/Ent package (MSRP 49,390). The dealer I'm looking at online appears to have 88 2012 MDX (various levels) on hand, as of today. What kind of numbers to I approach them with? BTW, credit pretty good with a 740 score.
Husband is looking at the at a 2013 ILX 5 - lease offer is - 2013 ILX 5 Speed Automatic w/Premium Package - $0 Due at Lease Signing - $310/month 38 months. He seems pretty satisfied with the package and options listed.
How/where do we negotiate...or is there even option to negotiate on advertised special leases?
Any advice, suggestion or input appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Recently got quotes for a base MDX at about $36,000, MDX with Tech for about $39,500, and MDX Tech/Ent for about $41,500. These prices include freight and consider the $1,000 loyalty discount. These prices are in the Virginia/Maryland area.
At those prices plus the acquistion fee ($595) and a reasonable amount for dealer documentation (say $100 or so), the expected monthly lease payment, with $0 down, 12K per year, for 36 months, would be something like:
Base $440
Tech $490
Tech/Ent $550
Even if you don't qualify for the loyalty if your husband buys the ILX first, you have an Acura and therefore would qualify.
A 740 credit score will get Acura's prime lease. A dealer with 88 2012s should be ready to deal.
Of course, the above quotes were not negotiated so there is likely some additional discount to be had.

Yes, you can negotiate the price of the car, which will reduce your pmt.

Could/would they go as low as invoice? Or is there a certain limit they'll go down with leasing?

I just negotiated the following deal for a 36 month lease on an Acura MDX with tech pkg which includes an Acura loyalty $1000 credit, is this a good deal or should I try to get better?
$2000 down payment, includes first month payment
$480 per month for 35 months

Is the residual payment negotiable? I would like to purchase the car at the end of the lease. Please advise!!

Hello there,
I got a lease offer for 2012 MDX with technology package for $589x 35 months.
All taxes are rolled in. First payment is $609 for registration and first month.
10 k miles a year.
Is this a good deal or should I shop around a little more?

Hi devilsadvct33. Acura's current buy rate lease money factor for all 2012 MDX trim levels is .00090 for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier.
This truck's 36-month, 15,000 mile per year residual values are 53% for the base model, 49% for the Advance, 48% for the Advance & Entertainment, 51% for the Tech and 50% for the Tech & Entertainment.
When negotiating your deal on this vehicle, make sure to take advantage of the $1,500 dealer cash that is currently available on it.
