the car dealer that wants to sell you the car told you that this is as good as it gets, and it won't get any cheaper.... if you believe that I have a bridge to sell you...
 
you think they would tell you to WAIT and that it will get cheaper as the economy gets worse, as cars sit, as the 08 models get OLDER and the 09 comes outa nd makes the 08 obsolete.... yeah buy it now!!!
 
hey, the deals now are GOOD. but I honestly think they will get better. time will tell... but I think Acura will find it HARD to jack UP prices as sales continue to slack off....
 
maybe the lease won't get any better in terms of the MF or the residuals...but then they will just to throw dealer cash at it to make it work out.
 
as the new TL hits the dealers, they will be give away the left over 08s. might not get your favorite color, but it will be cheaper.
 
me... i'm waiting for an SHAWD TL. FWD just plain sucks. sorry. i've driven the TL-S and own a new MDX. my MDX handles AMAZING and it's a tank/heavy. a TL with SHAWD would be wonderful.
 
i'm waiting.

Called the fleet dept at the dealer this morning and asked if he could do the 35months/12k with a drive off of $664 and payment of $375 including tax on a base TL. Said yes, faxed me the credit app,picked the color when we went to the dealership. We never even test drove the TL just went with reliability and word of mouth. Same thing with our previous car which was a Honda we never drove the car before. The sales rep did the finance paperwork did not try to sell us anything and we were out of the dealership in about 40 minutes. The car is a pleasure to drive. Thanks to all the members of this board for sharing their buying experience with me.Wish all well.

so the $664 drive off payment was all you paid? What about dmv? Doc? Aquistion? Care to share which dealer you got this deal from? I would call them asap to close on a similar deal.

It will probably be fine, but why would anyone not take a few minutes to test drive the specific car they want before committing just to make sure they didn't see any problems that would cause them to bring the car back for repairs and adjustments the next week?
Some cars have rattles and brake squeals that others don't. Sometimes a specific car will drift left or right or have some other issue that needs warranty attention that could have been noticed in a test drive and you could have just chosen a different car on the lot rather than deal with it at the service department later.
They are not all the same.

I guess the warranty will take care of the unseen.

Apologize for the delay, and I do hope this helps you. Breakdown of the $664,is as follows: $375.40(1st month), Initial registration fees $262,doc fee $48.71,electronic filing fee-$28.00(PURE PROFIT),tire fee is $8.75. Now when you add it up comes out to $722.86,that is what he asked from me. I told him that another dealer who we both know gave me the quoted payment based on a drive off of $664, he said no problem.Looking at my contract I see that the dealer contributed a payment of $58.86 to make the drive off $664.Also,my payment should be $375,not $375.40. Ask for the fleet director at Acura 101 West in Calabasas,he has been with the company for 11 years. Overall, my deal was fair, and my buying experience was good.I told hime to keep me informed on the MDX for better rates. Let me know if you have any questions.Take care

You are correct, in hindsight I should have probably test drove the car and to have at least sat in it before leasing the car. I just believe that well the car is made by Honda therefore is less prone to having too many problems. On a side note I sat in the MDX in the dealer showroom and enjoyed that experience. I have received a few compliments on my white diam TL.

lease numbers for a TL-S by boe747lcf

Hi car_man and kyfdx.
 
do you know if acura normally supports a 24 month lease term? if so, i'm looking for the current MF and residuals for a 10k/yr, 24 month lease on a 2008 TL type S. If that lease term doesn't exist, can you tell me what the MF and residual is for a 10k/yr, 36 month lease?
 
Thanks!

Hey guys, new to the forum. Just leased an 08 TL, Black on Black, in Southern California (South Coast in Orange County).
 
Ended up with $1500 walk off (including doc, tire fees, taxes, registration, etc), 382.00/mo (incl taxes) for 15,000.
 
Hilarious that the Accord dealer wouldnt budge below 450 for the 15K miles...

Hi everyone-
 
Picked up my 2008 Type S on Friday night. I have to say I am really enjoying it. (Prior lease that just ended was a Z4).
 
Thanks for all the sharing of information, it certainly helped me structure my deal. (See earlier post).
 
Cheers
