Hi Carman,
 
Any info on the 06's yet. Looking for 06 Civic EX Coupe with 5speed MF and residuals please. I prefer 36 or 39 months with 12K per yr. Thanks for your help.

Here's the information that you are looking for, ruag35oner. If you were to lease a 2005 Honda Civic sedan VP through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00255 and 53%, respectively. Don't forget to take the dealer cash that is available on this car into account when negotiating your lease.

Hi ajpbf7. Honda just published a lease program on the '06 Civic coupe a week or so ago. As one might imagine with a new model like this, Honda is not currently providing any sort of lease support on it. If you were to lease a 2006 Honda Civic EX Coupe without navigation through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00255 and 61%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease should be .00255 and 57%.

Here you go jnuzzi. If you were to lease an all new 2006 Honda Civic LX Coupe through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00255 and 59%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease should be .00255 and 55%.

Hello car_man,
 
Do you have any #'s on expected buy rate lease money factor and residual value for the upcoming 06 Hybrid, w/NAV? I'm looking at 36 or 39 months, for 12K miles/year. I've put $ down, but haven't decided on purchase vs. lease yet (it's for business purposes, so for tax reasons I'm leaning towards leasing to take tax advantage of it as an expense). They expect to have them in October.
 
Also, are there any advantages/disadvantages to leasing a hybrid? I don't hear it discussed that much. Thanks!

hey,
after doing as much homework as only possible, i went to a dealer yesterday to get a lease on a 2005 civic ex. we had negotiated price down to 16880 from 18425 (miami, florida)
i wanted a lease since i have limited budget at the moment (-out of college and on entry level job) and i qualified for the graduate program lease.
offer was approximately something like this.
42 mon.
1500 down
15K /yr
309/mon
 now this is after negotiating for 2 hours since he brought me out ridiculous quotes. i really want the car, last one around here, and i didn't want to give up.
my creditscore is 658.
i was giving him 3000 down!!! for a lease!!! and his first offer was for 12k/yr for 289 for 48 months!
i dont know what is up.
after 4 hours at the dealer, i left. i called later, he said that honda bank chainged their mind about approving me for a lease....
well, i offered 16000 to purchase the car and i am putting 3000 down, interest rate i am approved for is 11.14.
can you give me any advice or your thoughts i would SINCERELY appreciate it. this is my first time buying a car and talking to dealers...
thankful in advance,
a.d.

Walk away from that Lease deal. Head over to your local credit union and join up and see if you qualify for a good rate (you will most likely get around 7% or 8%with your credit score). If not, try to get a parent or someone with good credit to co-sign for you. If you can buy it for $16,000 and then subtract your $3,000 downpayment you will have to finance around $14,000 for the car and tax,title and lic. You can get a 60 month loan on $14,000 for about ~$280.00 per month on this car. If you need to you could stretch it out to 72 months (although I wouldn't).
 
DO NOT LEASE. Buy this car. Go to the Credit Union. Also, take your time and don't ever get in a hurry to buy.

thank you for your advice.
i did walk out the deal and am going to another dealer. i just could not figure out why the lease was so expensive. here are the details from the honda printout.
he was telling me that i was getting these prices cuz i was on the graduate program lease, which is the least preferred.
he kept pushing me for 42 and 48 mon lease to lower my payments.
when i asked him about the interest rate, he said, there is no interest rate, it is a lease....hahaha!
 
payment details:
term 36mon
base payement 315.35
total payment 334.27
purchase option 10,133.75
msrp 18425 (although we agreed on price of 16880) he said that he needed to enter this in the computer to receive right residual value -perhaps true.
est miles/yr 12000
excess milage 0.15
 
money due at inception:
1st month 334.27
depozit 0
aqz fee 0
fees and title 293.50 (inc. lemon, tire, battery and tag fees)
upfront taxes 81.44
cap reduction 1290
out of pocket 2000
 
well, i can tell you that he was pretty pissed after dealing with me for 2.5 hours. i have three master degrees including an mba and he was trying to explain to me how a lease works and that i need to go to 48 months. i think that i confused him totally when i started talking about depreciation procentage rate of the value of the car in the fourth year and that i was not interested in leasing for four years since the fourth year payments would not go into equity on the car.
