Hi acuralease. The amount that going with a demo will reduce your monthly payment by depends upon how much of an additional discount the dealer is willing to provide you on it. My personal problem with demo vehicles is that I find that dealers are never willing to provide enough of an additional discount on them for me to justify purchasing what essentially is a low mileage used vehicle over a brand new one that no one else has driven all over the place.
 
I do not believe that Acura is currently providing any cash incentives for loyal customers on the TSX.

Hi acuralease. The Federal Funds Rate has no direct impact upon the interest rates that banks charge on auto loans and leases. While it is possible that Honda Finance's costs of funds might eventually drop and it might decide to pass this savings through to consumers, there is certainly no guarantee that this will happen.
 
Having said this, I would not be surprised if Honda Finance lowered its special lease money factor on the TSX when it introduced its new January lease program for it on the 6th. If it does cut its money factors though it will probably be just by enough to offset any natural drop in residual values that this car experiences at the beginning of a new year.

Hi kball2. According to the latest information that I have seen, Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Acura TSX with 12,000 miles per year are .00263 and 64%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its "Super Preferred" credit tier. Keep in mind though that this lease program is only good through January 5th.
 
It is difficult to say whether Acura will extend its special financing rates into January at this point. Feel free to check back with me later this week and I will be happy to fill you in on the details of the new program.

Honda Financial is notorious for not have great money factors. They are conservative in their finances which turned out to be a good thing lately! I just leased a base TSX a few days ago and the residual is pretty sweet. For 15K/36 months the residual is 62% - much higher than most every other make out there. Looks even better given the great deals to be had.
 
For example a $29,720 MSRP has residual of $18,426.40. Based on my negotiated price of $26,777 - my actual depreciation hit is 18426.40/26777 = 68.9%. So the car will only depreciate 31% over the next three years. Not sure any other car can match that.

So Cal Acura Lease by jmcbmw

Just got a sweet deal below invoice on a 2009 TSX-Tech at Keyes Acura on Van Nuys Blvd from their Internet Manager. Promised I wouldn't post the exact price online. Worked out to $800 drive off (1st pay + DMV) and $455/month w/ 15K miles. No hassle, big selection, all very nice and professional and I was out of there in about 2 hours including a nice overview of the car and it's numerous features. Today's the last day of the current lease promotion so similar deals to be had I'm sure.

Honda Finance in January? by darknightx13
Jan 05, 2009 (9:25 am)

When will we know if Honda extended it's current financing (i.e. MF and Residuals) into the new year? Is this as simple as calling a dealership tomorrow and asking? I'm very curious as to what's going to happen since I basically have to lease a new car in the next 11 days and I didn't make a deal during their current promotion. Thanks.

You will only know when the dealers know. If you can get a dealer to call you when an updated special arrives, then that would be the way to go. They only know on the day it arrives. I would not let them push you out either, meaning that if you need to extend your lease, which you can by calling American Honda. That way if you needed to take advantage of a deal you could have more time. Extending 1 month or so would not be a problem. Never let a dealer try to push you out, because you do have time. They might try to use that as an excuse to get you out, but deals might not be had at that moment. You'll be fine.
 
However, I sense that Acura will continue to offer deals to get through the winter and slump. Don't worry, take your time. Its your car, your terms.
 
Just either have a dealer call you, or check daily. They often will sense you are wanting a good deal, and will then do everything to get you just that. They'll call you.

Car_Man,
 
I'm looking forward leasing a 09' TSX Base Model... 10k/36mo.
 
I would like to know what should the residual and money factor be.
 
** My mom will be the cosigner and already has a 07' TL Base Model under her name with Honda Finance. (Can I get better deals?)
 
*** She has perfect credit.

$299/month w/ $2,500 down
 
Includes down payment and bank fee.
 
I've asked the sales person what the money factor and residual are for 10k/39mo. and he told me its .0025 and %63.
 
How does that work out?
 
$595 Bank Fee (Acquisition Fee)
 
$1905 Down Payment
 
= $2,500
