njpcdriver, where in NJ do you live? Depending on where you live and if you're willing to travel (who knows, you could be around the corner), I can help you get the best deal possible. One of my best friends works for DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ and between myself, my family, friends, and random people I've met on here, we have leased / purchased 12 (and counting...) Honda's from him in the past year. It's almost comical how much I help him out. I only ask from him in return is to refer customers to me if they need a Mercedes-Benz so we have a great relationship! I am more than willing to help out a fellow New Jerseyian (I'd help out people from other states, but it seems like they'd rather stay in-state). Seems the $243.00 for 36-months, 12,000 Miles per Year with $1,000 Total out of Pocket seems a tad high based on the Residual and MF that CarMan has listed and they could go a little lower. My friend will beat that no problem. He doesn't play any games. Contact me if you need help in getting the 09 Civic LX you'd like. Take care!

njpcdriver, that seems high to me as well. i just leased a 2010 civic LX-S for $223.86 35 months i paid the first months lease payment plus tags ect.. for a total of $443.36 due at my signing. i know the LX is priced about $1000 less then the LX-s is so you should be able to get the lx at a slightly lower payment and little to no money down like i did. i have found getting an internet price quote for purchasing from several dealers is the best way to go. that's what i did, i got price quotes from 5 dealers the lowest offer i got was $17,122 with tax title ect the OTD price was $18,500. most places wanted 18,200 before tax and title ect.. best thing to do is shop around and get the final price on paper so you don't get hosed at signing. good luck

thebigdaddye,
You were right - it was high so I went back to them and pushed for a better offer (thanks!) - here is what they came back with for the 2009 LX sedan:
Price $16,040
Cap cost: $0
Money factor: .00186
36 months with 12,000 miles per year = $229.43 per month with $1,258.43 total due at signing.
The monthly payment matches your payment, but why the difference in the down payment??

njpcdriver, that still seems a little high specially the amount down,plus it's a 2009 which i think has a $750 cash i believe to use towards the down payment. mine is a 2010 LX-S which is a step up from the LX. of course i don't know your credit rating or if your area is slightly higher for car prices. $229 a month is not bad ,but i wouldn't put that much down ($1,200+) try to keep it at or around $500 which should include the first month payment. keep at them and call around don't make a deal unless your totally happy and make sure everything is in writing

Just a little follow-up on the final outcome:
We decided to go with the 2009 Civic LX lease with $900 down and $232 a month. We didn't really have the time to haggle with the dealer anymore, so I put an end to the back and forth with the above numbers. Overall, the experience we had was good so no complaints here.
Thanks guys!!!

Car man,
Can you please give me the Residual and Money Factors on the following 2 cars? I am trying to figure out a lease for 36 months/15,000 miles.
2010 Honda Civic LX Automatic Coupe
2010 Honda Civic EX Automatic Coupe
I am turning in a 2007 Honda Accord with the lease ending in December so I am pretty sure that I quality for the super-preferred term as a returning American Honda Finance customer.
Thanks!!

thebigdaddye, your deal sounds great!
I just leased a 2010 Civic LX-S in Brooklyn, NY for $226 including taxes/30 months, with 1499 down (includes all fees and the first month payment). Before I read your post I thought it was good! I tried to find out the price of the car but the dealer kept telling me it doesn't matter and that he could put any price down but that would change money factor, at the same time he refused to tell me what the money factor was. He told me I got Tier 1 credit (whatever that means) and that I am getting the car for a total of 18,405 but it was not anywhere in the papers. The residual factor is about 13k. I keep thinking that I got ripped off and got the car for MSRP, am I wrong? Also, the dealer told me that the car total price makes no difference and that all I am buying is monthly payments but it doesn't feel right. What do you think? Thanks!
