I just drove both cars today, back to back. The RL first and the TL second. I am leasing a 2005 RL right now.
 
After the test rides, I just received lease offers on both cars, TL Tech lease (front wheel drive) and an RL with tech. The offer on the TL is as follows:
 
MSRP - $39,445
Customer discount - $1,495
Selling Price: $37,950
Tax (6.5%) $2,366.99
Tag/Reg $350
Dealerr Fee $599
Balance due $41,275
 
Lease terms are:
MF: .00165
Residual: 61%
Residual $: $24,061
Cap: $40,2033
Payment: $594 (tax incld) w/ $0 down, 36 mo/12K miles;
 
RL
MSRP: $50,660
Customer Discount $4,259
Selling Price: $46,400
Tax $2,874
Tag/Reg $350
Dealer Fee: $599
Balance due: $50,233
 
Terms
MF: .00119
Residual: 49%
Residual $: $24,823
Cap: $46,818
Payment: $745 (w/tax) with $0 down for 36 mo/12K miles
 
These were the first offers I received. I have not presented a counter.
 
The test drives were interesting. The 2009 RL feels quicker and sportier in handling then my current RL. It is also quieter then my 2005.
 
The TL felt quick and had seemed to have a stiffer suspension and tighter handling and cornering. The interior materials are much better then the prior model, IMHO.
 
However, the main obvious, to me anyway, difference between the two 2009 cars is the highway/wind noise. Acura really did a great job with the noise reduction in the RL. The TL felt fairly loud in comparison. Probably, like my 2005 RL before I switched the tires (which helped a lot). The RL also feels more substantial to me (whether this is good or bad is up to you).
 
Sorry for the long post. I know this went far beyond what you asked, but I thought I would set this stuff forth to see what my local Central Florida dealer is making so you can make a comparison.

I live in Ohio and I am working on a Base TL or possibly the TL Tech. I really have not been working the TL Tech deal very hard because this is not the direction I think I am going to go. Having said that I am at a monthly payment of $530.20 (including 6.75% sales tax) for 36 months, 10k per year, with ZERO down. "Gator" - based on this and other info that I have I believe you have room to move.
 
On the base TL I am at $459.72 (including 6.75% sales tax), 36 months, 10k per year with ZERO down. Residual % is 65%, money factor is .00197. I am still waiting for all the exact numbers. I have estimated a selling price of $33,607.
 
Does anyone have the invoice prices on the 2 models? I am showing $32,136 (base TL) and $35,556 (TL Tech). Are these correct?
 
DCH MontClair Acura (New Jersey) is advertising $299 per month with $1,999 due at signing (base TL) and $347 per month with $1,999 due at signing (TL Tech). Both are 36 months and 10k per year. At these rates I have estimated they are selling at below invoice.
 
I will keep you posted.

I have to tell you I do not think that those prices advertised by DCH are realistic. I visited DCH, have excellent credit and was not offered a lease anywhere near those terms (although the lease I was offered was somewhat reasonable - 1,500 down (inc. 1st month payment), 389/month.
 
I was just offered a 36 month lease on a base TL for $1,850 down (incl. 1st month's payment), $370 per month, 12k miles per year. What does everyone think of this deal? Thanks!

Are the per month payments you are quoting before tax?
 
Also - What happened at DCH Montclair? The deal they quoted you is not even close to what they are advertising?

Any fees in the $1850 down, or just the 1st month's payment, and the rest being cap cost reduction? I'm assuming that the tax is also not included in the monthly payment? I'm also looking at leasing a base TL in the next few days. The dealer offered invoice price right up front before any negotiating.

Actually, just finalized the lease deal. My down payment came to 1950, which includes everything. Payment is $370/month including taxes.

My latset offer is $500 off MSRP for TL Tech AWD, residual 60%, MF .00165, $1750 out of pocket and the payments work out to be around $611.00.
 
Dealer wanted to go down lower on the selling price if I took delivery on the spot.
 
I would advise buyers to wait some more (around Spring) for prices to move closer to invoice.

Jballs, if you wouldn't mind, could you please send me the details on the lease you were able to get? Cap cost, fee breakdown, money factor, etc., would be very helpful to me. I hope to wrap up a lease deal before the end of the year.
 
I'm in Ohio, and the tax here works differently than in most states, but at least I would be able to compare the other aspects of the deal.
 
The deal I'm being offered is invoice ($32,895) + $595 acquisition fee + 4950.86 up front tax. Total cap cost = $34,440.86. Residual for 36 month 12k miles/year (64%0 = $22,857.60. Money factor = .00197. Monthly payment = $434.64 with total due at signing $484.64 (1st month + 50 title & reg.).
 
Again if you could e-mail your details to merlion0821(remove)hotmail.com, it would be appreciated. Thanks!

I live in the Cleveland area and will be picking up a base 2009 TL this week. 36 month lease at $445 per month (6.5% tax included) based on 15k per year. Total of about $725 due at closing including first month fee. My first offers on this vehicle started at over $500/month

Looks like a good deal to me. I am at $459 per month with zero due at signing for a Acura TL base, 36 months, 10k per year. I believe I am going to be able to work that down to $445 or lower. I also am at $505 per month on a Acura TL Tech with zero due at signing, 10k per year.
