Here's the information that you're looking for mikevi7. Acura's February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 TL AWD Tech with 12,000 miles per year are .00098 and 54%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier.
 
It is difficult to say whether Acura will introduce any additional incentives for President's Day weekend. Typically Honda / Acura's special holiday enhancements involve improved finance rates, such as 0.9% for 5 years rather than additional cash incentives like Nissan employs. Having said that, it wouldn't hurt to wait just in case they do make an enhancement tot he programs .

#2751 of 3017 Help Please: TL SH_AWD w/ TECH by jesterny

Feb 24, 2012 (1:38 pm)

I am new here and new to leasing. I have a question. I am supposed to go tomorrow to complete the leasing process at my local dealership but I am not sure if I got a good deal.
 
Does the following sound ok?
 
Lease with Option to Buy
 
2012 Acura TL SH-AWD with Tech Package:
 
$5000 Due at signing (This includes Down Payment & ALL Fees, Taxes, Title, Etc.)
 
$450/ Month Total Lease Payment
 
10k/Year Miles Allowed
 
I only have 24 hours before I sign the papers and make the commitment so if anyone can respond soon it would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance.

no, in my opinion that is not a great deal.
 
i would shoot for this:
 
$2,000 due at signing (all in)
$460-485/month (all in)
12k/year
36 months
 
I would never put that much down on a lease...if the car gets stolen or totaled, you will lose your entire down payment.
 
hopefully this was helpful

Thank you for the info Mikevi7.
 
It actually took me 2 hours of going back and forth between the dealer and the manager to get this deal. My income will only allow me to pay a maximum of $450/month, so I thought the $5000 due at signing was a good deal. Thanks for the heads up.
 
I forgot to mention that the $5000 also included the first months payment and all taxes and bank fees. So it's probably about a $3400 down payment and the rest is all the other fees and taxes. (If that makes a difference??)
 
They have had me waiting 3 days while they locate the color I want, I already planned on asking them for an increase to 12k Miles/year for the inconvenience. They are also giving me a loaner at signing until they receive the color I wanted. (Not happy about that, but its better than nothing.)
 
At least now I have an Idea of what I should be paying. For $450/ Month for 35 months maybe the Total Due at Signing should be about $3500-$4000...? Does that sound about right?
 
Thanks again, Sorry for the noob questions. I just don't want to get screwed cause I really like this car and I never leased before. I just can't pay more than $450/Month.

I am turning in my 2009 Tl Base with Tech. I was offered a 2012 TL base with Advance Pkg. for $550 a month (all in) for 36 months and 12k miles. and they will take me out of the last two months of the lease. I am presently paying $499 all in.
 
Is this a good deal. I can wait the two months to turn it in until the lease is up also.

I sure do vulches. Acura's February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a base 2012 TL with 12,000 miles per year are .00098 and 59%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier.
 
The residual value for a lease with only 10,000 miles per year is 1% higher.

CAR MAN:
I NEED YOUR ADVICE/HELP. Please help me out.
I am leasing the Acura TL (first time lease here)
 
This is the best offer thus far, not sure if its good though:
-2012 Acura TL (ADVANCE) standard (NOT THE AWD)
-15,000 miles (36 month lease)
-$1960** down/ $470 plus taxes monthly (taxes are about $28 per month) (transfer tag fee included (about $100) & they will pay for first month (about $498))
So the down payment really is about $1362 with the first month & transfer title fee covered by the dealership.
 
PLEASE ADVISE IF I SHOULD JUMP AT OPPORTUNITY OR WAIT. THANK YOU!

Welcome new2leasing1. Do you happen to know this car's selling price? That number would be very helpful in my evaluation of your deal. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without this number it is much more difficult to tell how large a dealer discount you are being given and in turn if there's any room left to negotiate.
