I traded my 06 lease early, over my mileage for that time of the lease. So I had about $20-30 more I had to roll into the new lease payment. They will look at your pay off versus your trade in value. With you being so close to your lease end date. I see you having minimal problems trading in, or trading in early. Perhaps, you could have some positive equity to roll into your new lease, depending on the condition, miles, market values. Going further into your miles will only eat into that equity. You are very close.
 
In my 06 Accord lease, I was a point in the middle of the lease, or close to the middle of the lease, I was able to walk away owing nothing. If I had kept it, I too would be turning it in this January 09. I would have been over my miles too, that would just eat into any equity I had. It will not be alot, but should be some, but still depends on those conditions being just right, even for Honda.
 
Doing a trade appraisal now, would be smart. Then you can see exactly where you are at, Perhaps getting the trade appraisal at more than just 1 dealer.
 
Pay off versus your Trade-in Value is exactly what they look at. As long as your car meets those conditions, you should be okay. Your so close, I really don't see you having much problem. Honda is one of the few cars you would be able to do this with few problems.
 
Getting a new EX-L 4cyl you want, should be obtainable to where you need to be, with good deals to be had. You have a bit of time to work with, but I would get the appraisal, if it looks good then, then get out, do a new lease. Get a good sale price, get all your miles you need up front, that way you are not putting yourself in the same position years again later. You should be able to do $0 down lease, and get where you need. For under $400, you can get a loaded Accord or Acura TSX.
 
Most dealers will want you out, they see you being a great candidate for a new lease. You can get out anytime you want, but its the timing that affects the money you owe and trade value. Heck you can trade only a few months in, but you are going to owe money, because you haven't touched the pay off amount enough, the value is lower. I never keep my leases for the full terms, have had little problems.
 
Its all about the timing, keep your car in top shape, miles, market.
 
Good Luck!

January 09 lease rates vs. December 08 by nomisny

So I 'ordered' an 09 EX-L Coupe Navi 6 speed on Friday, 1/2/09.
Reputable dealer who I have leased from before.
Said it would take him a couple of days to locate one.
Fast forward to today Tuesday, 1/6/08 and he thinks he may have one or two within reach and will know tomorrow hopefully.
 
I checked edmunds' incentive list and it shows that marketing support went from $750 to $1000 as of January 6, 2009 on all 09 Accords.
 
Should this be passed on to me, or have the residuals changed such that its a wash, or worse, maybe the numbers are worse as of the 6th, so I should keep my mouth shut?? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
btw lease deal is 3 yrs/12k $469/mo everything rolled into payment, incl. tax, bank fee etc. Only thing I have to foot is for new plates and 1st payment.

Hi joseatt. Here is the new January lease program for the models that you are interested in. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Accord Sedan LX-P with 12,000 miles per year are .00250 and 61%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its "Super Preferred" credit tier.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '09 Accord Sedan EX 4-cyl. are .00250 and 61%. Lastly, the numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '09 Accord Sedan EX-L 4-cyl.are .00250 and 59%.
 
When negotiating your lease on this car, make sure to take advantage of the $750 dealer cash that Honda is providing on it. This cash should enable you to negotiate a capitalized cost for your lease that's below dealer invoice.

Hi reechz. Thanks for taking the time to share your lease-end experience with everyone. I have leased several Honda / Acura models in the past and I have always found Honda Finance's inspection process to be fairly lenient. I;m glad that you found the same thing. This should help put some community members' minds at east.

Hi nomisny. According to what I have heard, the dealer cash on 2009 Accords didn't increase to $1,000 across the board, V6 models get a grand but 4-cylinder models still get $750. If you are getting a V6 Accord, Vehicles are eligible for the incentives that are available at the time that the consumer physically takes deliver of them, so I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to take advantage of this extra $250.

What was your negotiated sale price for the car? Bank fee? You should only have your destination fee. All other fees are not required. You said etc.... rolled into the payment, what else is rolled into it. Perhaps the security might be a fee, but I am not sure you always have one. I have never been charged that.
 
I think the payment is decent. Though I have seen lower, but that was on a sedan, not a coupe. Honestly, because the Acura TSX is around this price, perhaps a bit higher, and they lease a bit better.
 
Let us know, Its decent, but really want to know the sale price, the fees rolled into the deal. Sounds like the sale price isn't really good.

Thanks for the info carman and bvd.
 
It is a v6 speed ex-l w/ navi I ordered.
By fees I really just meant tax and bank fee.
Besides that, I think it's just DMV. Either way, all I'll be paying upfront is first months payment and plates.
 
Anyone know if the residuals or money factor got better, worse or stayed the same this month? Thanks again,

You're welcome, nomisny. Here's the latest on this car's lease program. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Accord EX-L V6 with navigation and 15,000 miles per year are .00280 and 55%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its "Super Preferred" credit tier. When negotiating your lease on this car, don't forget about the $1,000 dealer cash incentive that is currently available on it.
