Thanks again for your valuable information.
 
My opinion: Honda's finance rate is absurd. 6.1% on a 36 month lease? Yikes. I can get a 60 month car loan at 5.2%. Maybe buying isn't such a bad idea. Payment difference is only about $110/month.

Car Man - does 12K miles effect the interest rate that much ? 6% for a 36 mo is a bit steep. What about a 39 mo ?
 
Thanks

Mileage won't affect interest rates, only residuals. The interest rate is dependent upon the cost of funds for Honda Credit plus its markupt. Cost is dependent upon the term structure of interest rates (what various rates are for various bond maturities; a/k/a/ "yield curve").
 
Given what one can get a car loan from a credit union, I think 6% is too high. But that's just me. Some banks are charging a lot more than that.

You're very welcome mi_sat. Most manufacturers' standard finance and lease rates are not very attractive. Honda doesn't need to provide low interest rates on the Odyssey because it sells well enough on its own. Financing this van through an independent bank is not a bad idea.

Dpav, leases' mileage allowances have no impact upon their money factors. Honda finance's standard money factors are exactly the same for 36 and 39 month leases right now, .00255. Its standard factor drops slightly, to .00235, for 42 and 48 month terms.

Thanks Car Man -one other question...
 
What is the residual on a 36 mo lease EX-L thru Honda Finance (or other bank that you have access to) ? Have you seen anything yet ?
 
Thanks

I leased a 2004 Honda Odyssey for 24 months back in August 2004. Is there a way I can get out of the lease earlier, so I can purchased a new 2005 Honda CRV?

You're welcome dpav. If you were to lease a 2005 Honda Odyssey EX-L (non-Touring and without the entertainment or navigation systems) though Honda Finance for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should currently be .00255 and 55%, respectively.
