Replying to: dolsey01 (Apr 03, 2009 12:54 pm) Selling price: $16038 MF .00225 Residual 62% Payment $214 including 7% sales tax. Total out of pocket = $214 first month plus BS $439 dealer fee + tags = $750. I live in MA but this deal was for my Mother in Florida. I could not believe ALL the surrounding dealers get this BS dealer fee and it ranges from $400-600. In Mass, I was complaining about $149 doc fee but I guess we have it good here. Maybe not the best deal but it did it all over email and it saved me a plane ticket and car rental for a weekend so I am pretty happy. Probably the easiest lease I have negotiated and the second one in the last 3 months.

I am new to the leasing game and not really sure how I should handle it. I went to the dealership today and discussed leasing or purchasing a new Civic LX. They knocked down the price on the 2009 Civic LX 4D Sedan from $18,255 (MSRP) to $16,500, which seemed like a fair offer to me. We started talking about leasing and he made me the offer of $0 down, $249 per month. Seemed like a good deal to me but I guess it's a manufacturer's deal right now, so maybe I should go lower? Just wanted some advise on how to go about this: should I call around other dealers and try to negotiate a lower price? Is this overpaying or would it still be considered a good deal? Also, I am sure this is pretty obvious, but this is my first new car purchase, so any general advice about how to approach this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Replying to: utlonghornut (Apr 23, 2009 10:44 pm) They can certainly do better than Honda's advertised lease offer. Go back a few posts are read mine regarding my recent lease. My pre-tax payment was $200 Call or email around, get the lowest selling price and then have them calculate the lease payment based on that price. The MF is .00225 and residual for 12K is 62%. Honda Finance's current promotions are good though 5/4.

Replying to: Car_man (Apr 23, 2009 2:33 am) The most detailed lease offer I have received for a Civic LX AT is $190.84 all in per month with only fees and first month's payment due at signing. Details: Selling Price: $16,023 Term: 36 months Mileage: 12,000 miles per year Money Factor: .00225 Residual: 62 % Due at signing: $1243.09 (Acquisition $595; Tax on fee, $29.75; Title/Sticker/Plates/Doc Fee, $434; first month, $190.84) The lowest selling price I have recieved is $15,534 and I think I can get that down to $15,300. Based on the that, the monthly payment would go down to $175 tax included. Not bad! Note, this confirms the .00225 (not .0025) MF.
