Here you go Keith. Acura's May buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24-month lease of a 2012 TSX 4-cylinder Tech with 12,000 miles per year are .00046 and 62%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier.
 
When negotiating your deal on this car, make sure to take advantage of the $500 cash incentive that is currently available on it.

Hey SergeyM. That is excellent advice. If my credit score had suffered I would probably be inclined to continue driving my current vehicle until I got my finances in order rather than getting something new.

Hi edcarr. Savvy consumers who are in an area that has a decent level of competition are usually able to negotiate lower selling prices than the ones that are used to calculate manufacturers' official advertised payments.

#2312 of 2437 2012 TSX Sport Wagon Lease by discostew

Jun 01, 2012 (5:38 am)

After looking at Audi & BMW (I have owned both in the past), I decided to try Acura for the first time. Really like the looks and standard gear on the base TSX Sport Wagon. The lease I ended up with was half the monthly of the Audi Avant I wanted. Black over black.
 
Sticker: $32,045
36 Months / 10k a year
Gross Cap: $29,500 + $595 Bank Fee = $30,095
Residual: 19,227 (60%)
Upfront: First Month $324 + Fees (Title Reg Doc Fee) $418 + Tax $652 = $1,395 (no cap reduction)
Finance: .00046
 
And a free set of winter mats!
 
$324 a month - seems pretty good? Dealer near Boston - they delivered it to me in VT. Lots of wagons down there and I guess the TSX is going away for 2013 so I bet the deals will get even better.
 
Good luck!

We are just now in the same boat! We have tons of equity in our 2010 and I refuse to hand that over to the dealer (we clearly are paying too much on our lease compared to you--it was my first lease and even though I visited here often, I learned the hard way the last three years and lost thousands).
 
What I plan to do is talk to our bank about a loan, since Acura Financial does not do third party transfers / sales. I want to line up a buyer myself, buy the car, and sell it (all in a day or two), and hope the bank can help us do this with a temp loan or something. If that doesn't work, we'll see what Acura dealers might offer us for the car. Even if we had to have a loan for a small time to find a buyer, paying any early loan payoff fees (if they exist) would be worth it for what looks like $6,000-8,000 in cash we could get.
 
The issue comes with state taxes. If you have to buy the car to sell it, I have to pay state sales tax--but if I sell it real fast, I can apply for a refund on the unused tax portion. States differ--some allow you a 10 day grace period to pay tax, which give you 10 days to sell it free of charge.

A lot of this depends on where you are. There's no way any informed consumer would ever pay $29K for a two year old used car when they can get a brand new one for virtually the same price. And private sales and dealer prices differ by at least 2-3K. In the DC area that car would sell for maybe 24K private party and maybe 27K at a dealer (regardless of what the asking price is).
 
My suggestion would be to buy the car if you like it. If not, turn it in, move on and not worry about what the dealer would make on it.

Of course no one would pay $29k for a $32k car when it's 3 years used. But I bet they might pay $26-27k for those low miles. So if it were me, I'd still try to sell it. Like I said I'm doing the same thing, and if I can't sell it myself, I'll trade it in to the dealer and make less--but I'll still make a few grand on the latter. I think the advice to just let the dealer have it is crazy. Either buy it and run it into the ground or buy it and sell it / trade it in. I'm starting down that road today.
