Supply vs demand. the supply of 2012 Accords is decreasing while the 2013 isn't out yet. Dealers are less likely to deal especially on the SE model. Look at the Altima - now that the 2013 is out, the 2012's are available for a minimum $6k off MSRP. Today was the last day of the month - not sure if they still have quota bonuses this late in the model cycle. Good luck.

Hey tolgac. You can still trade in your vehicle and not use the proceeds from it as a down payment for your lease. Just have the dealer cut you a check for your trade instead. I've done it before. In fact, in some states trading in a vehicle, even if you don't apply the proceeds towards your lease, actually results in a tax benefit.
 
What is the selling price of the car that you're interested in? Let me know and I'll tell you what I think of this deal.

#4789 of 5229 2012 Accord EX I4 auto sedan 36 12k by gpsac

Just picked up new Accord EX I4 auto 4dr on a 36 mo 12k mile. Polished metal with gray interior. Central Florida.
 
0 up front
35 227 + tax (242)
 
Turned in my 2010 Accord with 2 payments remaining of 248 which the dealer would make and then turn it in to Honda. Apparently it is not worth the residual.

#4792 of 5229 Accord SE Lease in Philly Area by partcans

Aug 12, 2012 (6:50 pm)

Hi,
I have e-mailed several dealers in the Philly area, and also found that Piazza seems to have the best internet prices--$20,053 for the SE. This price is higher than some quotes on this website, but I haven't gone into the dealer yet, and suspect that I can trim a little bit off of this number. Unfortunately, it seems more difficult to get a handle on lease costs. Excluding taxes and state/dealer fees, I've calculated that a 36 month, 15,000 mile/year lease should cost $205.85/month (using a $13,807 residual and .00046 money factor). However, the fees charged by dealers seem really inconsistent. For example, I received a lower quote from a dealer charging a higher price ($20,333 resulted in $452 down and $235/month with 9% tax included vs. $20,053 = $453 down and $236.31/month OTD). I have had no luck getting dealers to report their fees via internet. Does anyone have any idea what lease/registratiion fees should be expected in Pennsylvania? Thanks--this forum is the most informative website that I have come across!

REF: 4792
Previously reviewed great deals on the SE lease are 210/month pre-tax with zero down. PA doc fees are completely optional:

Your numbers are quite good considering the 9% tax. Only additional fess are temp license and first year reg fees (~100 here in OH, not sure about PA). Remember the supply is dwindling and so is there desire to deal. Pictures of the 2013 Accord were released a few days ago and it is very similar to this 2012 model. If i wasn't stuck in a lease til March 2013, I'd lease a 2012 Accord now. Good luck!

#4794 of 5229 2012 Accord Coupe by iceman1988

Aug 14, 2012 (8:47 am)

Here is what I have been quoted on:
 
2012 Accord Coupe EX I4
-1,300 Total out of pocket includes first months payment
-$268 month 35-months 12k miles
-$284 month 35-months 15k miles
 
2012 Accord Coupe EX-L I4
-1,300 Total out of pocket includes first months payment
-$305 month 35-months 12k miles
-$322 month 35-months 15 miles
 
money factor .00046
Residual 52%
 
Selling price: (before Tax)
EX - $ 22,673
EX-L - $ 24,262
 
I beleive that these are both very good deals. (Both well below invoice) Just want to see what you guys think. I am thinking of going with 15k miles just to be safe, since the new 2013 is coming out soon it might be difficult to get out of the lease if I run out of miles with 12k. My main question: Is it worth it to get the EX-L at $38 more a month? or should I stick with the EX and cloth interior. Don't get me wrong I loved the power leather heated seats and leather wrapped steering wheel, but what else does the EX-L offer that would make the $37 more actually worth it. don't care about the xm radio and dual climate control, and outside temp display. What would you guys do? I am leaning towards the EX with 15k at $284 a month. I just don't see enough to warrant a $38 more for better seats. What do you think?

#4795 of 5229 2012 Accord Sedan - Residuals by bradl1

Aug 15, 2012 (10:56 am)

Hey Carman, big fan of the site. Could you please post the residuals and MF for a 2012 Accord Sedan (both the EX-L and EX-L V6), assuming a 3 yr, lease w/ 15k/year.
 
Also, is the 3 yr lease the way to go on this vehicle or are the numbers better for a 2 year.
 
Thanks so much!
