Replying to: mjf70 (Nov 17, 2008 5:58 am) 36months, 12k miles 1408 fees .0021 60 residual 679 per month Selling price-MSRP (They wont come down) Acura got to be out of their minds for a car that competes with the ES350 and G35. I can lease a GS 350 for less than this. |

does anyone know the money factor for the 08 tl

I picked up my 09 base yesterday. Took the new money factor of .0021 at $100 under invoice. Price - $32795 $595 acquisition fee $819 drive off (first + DMV = no cap reduction) 3 yrs (12k miles) at $411.25/month ($445 with CA tax) I got home and noticed a ding on the trunk lid - called and they said they'd fix it. Today the internet manager called to say that the special MF was only for the Tech and that it needed to be changed to .0251 Adding $11 in after tax dollars to the payment. When can you come in and sign the new papers? I asked them to adjust the purchase price so that the payment stays the same, or if it has to go up then throw in the BS oil changes/tire rotation for the extent of the lease they tried to sell me or the scratch and dent policy. He said no. I said I'd drop off the keys when i could (i worked 5AM until 8pm today and will do the same all week). He told me that I would be driving the car without a contract. Huh? What did i sign yesterday? What was all the DMV and transfer of title paperwork i have? I asked to speak with the GM and left a message. We'll see how it plays out. |

| that seems a little shady to me. do you really think they would amend the contract if you were paying too much? | |

Replying to: chuckjr (Nov 17, 2008 9:05 pm) You should stick to your guns on the $11.00. They can neither force you to sign a new lease or take your car away. Even if they have some legal basis to argue that the lease is not valid, they would pay far more in attorneys fees to litigate the matter than the $11 per month. Your approach is correct. You should only agree to sign a new lease if the monthly payment stays the same. They can change the purchase price on the contract and should eat the loss. Of course, they may not be so enthusiastic about fixing the ding or servicing other problems that might come up during your lease. Do you have another Acura dealer nearby? |

The dealers are complaining that Honda is not supplying them with enough AWD TLs. Some are only getting 5 per month but have 30-50 base models in stock. Some do not even have AWD TLs available to test drive. Consequently many dealers are not discounting the car. However, if you cast your net a little farther out(metro NY/NJ) you can find dealers who are willing to deal. Now some dealers who said they would not discount are now willing to discount $1000 or more off MSRP. The deal I made was $1145 off MSRP, zero down, taxes included in monthly payment, residual 61%, money factor .0051 (0021 is for different models and not all models), 36 months, 15K per year, monthly payment $599, delivery next week. If you are willing to wait dealers will become more flexible with their pricing. Car Man thanks for all of your help. You always make my car buying experience much easier.

Replying to: chuckjr (Nov 17, 2008 9:05 pm) I never got a returned call from the GM or the internet manager. They dropped off the paperwork and will be picking the signed contract up from my home while i am at work. I will have to go back to them to get the ding fixed and if the internet sales manager wants to be a jerk he's the only one that knows about it. They ended up eating $740 funny, I called another dealer on monday night in case i needed to return this one. They told me the MF was .0211 for a base and I was pissed. I told him that the other dealer quoted me that but had upped the MF. He said he would do some digging to make sure the .0211 was for a base and tech and call me back. This was at 8:30 monday night. he never called back |
