Yes, I have heard that as well...but I thinkthe number is country-wide.
 
Now I have a real dilemma...Since I heard the news about TSX's V6 plans, I do not know what to do....I still need t pick up the car within a month, but I wanted to get it in February (to capitalize on a $750.00 cash) and was willing to forego an extra month on my existing lease. Now I am thinking perhaps the dealers will be more aggressive pushing the exiating 4-cyl TSX off the lotts?

No, I don't think they'll be more motivated to move the 4cyl TSX's, because it will always be the standard in the TSX. If anything, they might push for the V6, but probably won't work as well on price for the V6 as the 4cyl. They will likely put it next to the TL, when shoppers come in to look for a TL. They would give them an option.
The V6 will be an option in just engine, but certainly will not replace the 4cyl. It will just be another trim added to the car. People love the Honda 4cyl, and then a few will buy the V6 model, perhaps not justifying the extra cash on the TL.
 
They are offering deals on the 4cyl models, deals are to be had, just look around. I don't think anything will change on the 4cyl model deals. If anything the numbers will be more tight on the V6 model. If they don't sell like they want, than they'll adjust it to do better. Also just like if the V6 TSX hurts TL sales, they'll have to bump the sales on the TL. I know they will face all of this.

I live out in NYC. Every time I speak to a dealership they always telling me that the selling price of the vehicle has nothing to do with the lease... Why hell they keep telling me this if every time i research about leasing it always says negotiate sale price?
 
I'm trying to lease vehicle by this week so please help ASAP.
 
What can I do or say to negotiate a good deal?

Leasing and the Stimulus Package? by spedprof
Feb 13, 2009 (11:48 am)

Folks,
 
The Stimulus package that is working its way towards approval contains a provision that provides that sales tax for the first $49,500 of an auto sale is tax deductible for most earners (There is a salary cap for singles and marrieds). If I take a new lease and roll the sales tax into the payments, am I eligible for that deduction or must i pay the complete sales tax up front to be eligible? Regrettably deductibility of interest payments was taken out in the last compromise.

36 vs.39 month lease? by spedprof
Feb 13, 2009 (11:55 am)

Folks,
 
Based on the discussion here, I started to email dealers about leasing a new TSX even though my current lease is not up until March 31. I offered either 36 or 39 months. One dealer in responding pointed out that production was about to stop on the 09 TSX and that I best hurry in and make a deal or the colors that I want might not be available. While I discount that as sales talk, it does suggest that I stay away from 39 months and stick to 36 months since the situation at the end of this new lease (July, 2012) will put me at the end of the year when there might actually be a shortage of colors. I know it's a long way off, but I don't think the 36 month lease will be that much more right now.
 
Thoughts?

Hi there. Looking for some help - please simplify for my sake.
 
Our MDX lease expires in April and we have been sent multiple mailers from Acura asking us to turn it in early, so we just might. We are looking to lease a TSX w/Tech. I have tried wrapping my brain around the posts regarding caps and residuals but no luck (I have 3 kids under 5), I would need a few hours without screaming to do so.
 
I have, however, requested numerous quotes from dealers with the first one coming in already. Maybe you can tell me how to interpret this (Chicagoland dealership).
 
"Price of $33,020 includes destination. You may have seen Acura's $299 lease special on the TSX base model, and here is a similar offer on the Technology model:
 
39 months = $369
$2499 due at signing, plus tax and license"
 
It seems decent, but I don't know if we're getting hosed somewhere or not. Any thoughts? Plus, how much could tax and license fee be? (Transfer of plates in IL I think is around $75?)
 
FYI: We are looking at 10K per year mileage. Our MDX is a 36 month lease and we are just shy of 20K on it.
 
This is from Naperville. We have always used McGrath in Westmont for our Acuras (CL, RDX, MDX), but do not have their quote yet.
 
And no, we won't be putting three carseats in the thing.
 
Thanks for any help.

They tell you the sale price has nothing to do with the lease because they consider you to be ignorant and not familiar with the lease formula. The mainly do that to people who visit dealerships from my experience. Internet/fleet sales tend not to play those games in most cases since they know you have probably done your research online and know a thing or two about leasing. Here's a link to how the lease formula breaks down and you can clearly see how the sale price affects the lease payments. Also, you might wanna download the lease calculator.

Just tell them to see how they derive to their monthly payment and then run your numbers using info on this forum. They probably think we are still in the dark ages at this age when info is easily shared on the internet.
 
It looks like I am getting a 09 TSX with $1,100 cash and $326 a month. I will have to pay for my current lease for the whole 3 months, but since the dealer lowered the downpayment significantly, I decided to pull the trigger. If it goes through, I will be paying less than for 4cyl EXL Accord. Keeping my fingers crossed.
