We've been to three dealerships and all three had the same exact fees, that I was told is always the same. They are as follows: Bank Fee $595, DMV Fees: $137, Document Fee $199, First Month Payment: $274 and Taxes which depends on the selling price of the car.
 
They did also give us the option of rolling all of these fees into our monthly payment, but then we would have been looking at $350 a month.
 
Has anyone else been able to come close to these prices I've been quoted because other dealerships I've been calling say they can't even come close and I'm starting to wonder if they were just pulling a "bait & switch" on me.
 
Here are the figures again:
 
Honda Accord EX-L V4
MSRP: $27,075
Selling Price: $23,723
Months: 39
Miles: 12,000 per year
Taxes and Fees: $2,035 approx
 
Monthly Payment (1) : $350 per month (includes all taxes and fees rolled into payment with $0 due at signing)
Monthly Payment (2) : $299 per month (pay $2,035 in taxes and fees at signing)
Monthly Payment (3) : $274 per month (pay $2,035 in taxes and fees plus $1,000 down payment at signing, for a total of $3,035)

I'm glad that you found this forum so helpful, banker2. Thanks for taking the time to share the details of your deal with everyone. If you'd like, you can hop on over to the Dealer Ratings & Reviews section of Edmunds.com to share your thoughts on your recent dealer experience there as well. Enjoy your new ride !

Hi marys236. Here's the information that you're looking for. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Accord EX-L 4-cylinder Sedan without navigation with 15,000 miles per year are .00250 and 57%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '09 Accord V6 Sedan without nav are .00280 and 57%.
 
When negotiating your lease, make sure to take advantage of the $750 dealer cash that is available on '09 Accord 4-cylinders and the $1,000 on the '09 Accord V6 right now.

I'd be happy to help you out, mogpod. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Accord Sedan EX V6 with 12,000 miles per year are .00280 and 60%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier.
 
You absolutely should negotiate the selling price of the car that you want to lease. If I was in the market for an '09 Accord right now, I would insist that the dealer I was working with base the lease upon a selling price of right around dealer invoice minus the $1,000 dealer cash.
 
As far as fees go, at lease signing you will be asked to pay your car's first month's payment, Honda Finance's $595 acquisition fee, possibly a security deposit equivalent to your car's monthly payment rounded up to the nearest $25 increment (though Honda may be waiting its security deposit requirement on this model right now), and any required state taxes or fees. You can usually roll most of these items into your car's capitalized cost to make them part off your monthly payment rather than paying them at signing if you want. Watch out for any sort of doc fee. This is nothing more than a way for dealers to add profit to deals.

Much appreciated, Car_man. This is very helpful.
I have a couple of more clarifications to ask if you please:
 
Some of the dealers' lease specials include a 39 months term on specific trims. What would be the residual for a 39 months term (EX V6, LX..., standard)?
 
You've mentioned the "$1000 dealer cash" incentive. Does this come from Honda? In which case it would be nice to have a print out when one walks into a dealership.
Or is it something that is negotiated verbally and in which case the buyer won't nececerily get it.

You're very welcome, mogpod. Honda stretched out its lease specials from 36 to 39 months in January to help offset some of the drop in its residual values. 39 month leases typically have slightly lower monthly payments than 36 month leases do because they provide three additional monthly payments to spread out vehicles' large initial depreciation hits out over.
 
Honda Finance's buy rate lease money factor for a 39 lease of a 2009 Accord EX V6 is still .00280, but its 15k residual value for this term is 58%.
 
The $1,000 dealer cash is a payment provided by Honda to dealers to help them sell vehicles. Dealers are free to use the money on deals or to pocket it if they can. Savvy consumers who know about dealer cash incentives are usually able to get dealers to reduce their vehicles' selling prices by that amount.

Ok guys, im so glad I found this site because i have a few questions.
 
I went to my local Honda dealer (Lawrence, MA) for a 09 Coupe EX-L Manual, I'm interested in a 39 month lease and got them down to $23,087 for cap.
 
According to the lease special on Honda's website my payment should be $355 w/o tax based on Tier 1 i assume.
 
However I've seen a couple people here get a much lower monthly payment for the same car, can someone explain what else I'm missing? I havent purchased the vehicle yet or submitted a credit app.... I did last summer and was placed in Tier 2.

i just got in a 36 month lease for a 2009 accord ex-l sedan. i put down 1300. cash and i had a trade that got me 1050. for a total of 2350. out of pocket. that final car price was $23,800 my payments are 267. per month. this includes taxes and all fees. i got this deal at boch honda in norwood ma so you are not to far. all you have to do is keep walking out. every time i got up and started to walk out they dropped at least $10.00 off your monthly payment. if you need it i can send you all the exact numbers and you can see if they match it. to top it off i got a keychain with 6 free oil changes.

I was at Boch on Friday, but they didnt have an EX-L coupe manual without Nav. They had one with Nav which they kept trying to get me to buy... but they didnt want to sell it at around invoice of a no nav coupe. So, i went home. They called me back yesterday twice but i didnt answer.
 
I've been dealing with Commonwealth motors for the past week, they have the car i want but aren't willing to give me a trade in value for my car.
 
I'd like to see your exact number because you got a good deal

Lease information for '09 Accord Coupe EX L 4A with Navi? by Chumshonda
Jan 19, 2009 (5:50 am)

Hi Car_man or any others who can provide guidance,
 
This is my first post to this excellent resource!
I would appreciate any help or guidance you could provide for the subject vehicle. This is a loaded 4 cylinder coupe. I have seen many posts w/o navi but few with. I believe you have said the dealer incentive on 4 cylinders is $750.
 
Like everyone I want a good deal but am confused as the MF, Residual % and other values seems to change with specifics. I also would appreciate your thoughts on mileage allowance and impact to monthly payments.
 
I am a current AHFC lessee and expect a good rating.
MSRP per Edmunds is $29255
I hope to get near invoice with destination less dealer incentive or $25798
 
I am in the Indianapolis area.
Your help is appreciated
Thank you,
Chumshonda
