Just saw that the base TSX 09 lease offering went from $272.00,mo., 10K/36 mo. with $2,272.00 down to $397.00 for 10k/48 mo with $2,272. in the Chicago area. This is an 2009, not the 2010. Similar increases on the other Acura models. Good way to improve sales especially when overall Acura YTD sales are down some 35%

Those prices are terrible. Never do a 48 month lease! 36 max. Sign and drive leases only. No cap cost leases. Get the bottom line price. I think you might have to pay the sales tax up front in Chicago. Walk away if the deal is no good. All Honda leases are based on 12K a year. I have no idea why they quote 10K? How about calling some of the dealers in Milwaukee. Maybe they have better pricing?

Only one Acura dealer in Milwaukee owned by the Acura dealer in Madison, WI. I agree with you 110 %. They are only shooting themselves in the foot. Back to the basics, its only a piece of iron. Fall in love with the deal not the car.
I have attempted to work with several dealers, based on their figures one would think the recession is over and so is the 9.5 % unemployment rate. TSX sales alone were down 53.1% for June 2009

Down 53% and yup, everyone is acting like the recession is over. Folks, this recession is gonna get worse because we have no alternative energy sources or infrastructure to deliver that potential new energy, and oil has peaked, and demand is going up in the Far East. That's my soapbox du jour. Now someone give me a deal!

There are some online car brokers that will get you the car at the right price or ship it to you. It sounds crazy but it might work even if it cost a few hundred in delivery costs. That is if you want this car. Search the internet and check them out. Locally I was offered a TSX with tech with nothing down on a leftover. I ended up getting a TL for $20.00 more TL with tech. (Zero cap fees etc)

You can get 10K on a Honda lease but 99% are based on 12K or 15. The cost between 10-12K miles will very extremely small on this car. For the price they quoted him that should have been 12K anyway.

Re: Traded 2007 Ridgeline for 2010 TSX Lease, your thoughts on deal? [fastfeet]

I'm in S FLA, my '10 TSX hasn't had any bluetooth issues, nor have I noticed much road noise except maybe slightly at high speeds/bumpy roads, but then I have driven a truck for 10+yrs so I am a bit numb to it. Nothing the radio cant fix , particularly with your Tech sound system. (I shouldve opted for tech...oh well)
My biggest pet peeve with the vehicle thus far is that they managed to omit 2nd row A/C vents? How?
I really enjoy driving the TSX, athough I do miss my Ridgelines AWD which although was tough on gas felt like it was glued to the road doing 90 in the pouring rain, not sure I will do that with FWD . I imagine your TL being a bit heavier probably felt similar and definately did if you had the AWD.

2009 TSX w/Tech Pkg

All should take a look at www.truecars.com wherein you can get the REAL transaction numbers of actual sales prices in your local and regional area, up to the national level. Works for vehicles upon which they have the data, which are most. I have found the REAL sales prices much lower than www.carsdirect.com, in most instances. I spoke to a few dealers about this new site, and once they saw it their jaws dropped in disgust! 
My latest calculation for a new 2009 TSX w/Tech Pkg in NYC metro area for 36 mo./15k is:
Sticker: $33,070
Base: $28,750 [based upon what actually sold]
Residual: 56%
Money Factor: .00198
Sales Tax: 8.375%
Mo. Lease: $409.43 incl. sales tax
add upfront first month, tags, Honda fee.
Only thing I'd add, personally, are splash guards and wheel locks.
Too bad Acura no longer offers OnStar, I had it in my 2003 TL-S, currently have it in my 2007 Saab 9-7X 5.3. Absolutely terrific service, worth every penny!

The difference between a 10k & 12k lease is that the 10k lease will have a 1% higher residual. A 15k lease will have a 2% lower residual then a 12k lease.
