Stoopy -- The question as to why people do what they do in any endeavor defies logic in many cases. Some people see things in absolute terms -- right or wrong. Some look only for a bit of an edge one way or the other to make a decision. They stay flexible in what they feel is to their benefit. By leasing, people avoid any long term connection to the car. Trading it or selling it is a source of great anxiety. As you said, they pay for that transaction. On paper it doesn't make good financial sense most of the time and a honda pilot is probably low on the best lease list.
Why do people live like paupers, house is a dump, old clothes, junker car and then when they die the kids split up 500k in the bank and in the closet? Happens all the time. They drive corvettes to the funeral. What a world.

Buy things that appreciate rent/lease things that depreciate has always been my theory. I will admit however that the SUV lease market is not great right now. In 06 i leased a 34K 4runner for 323 a month with true zero down. Just 36 payments of the 323. That was a 61 percent residual and a ridiculously low MF. Now i am looking at the pilot with only a 49 percent residual and a somewhat high MF. The best option right now on the Pilot is to buy it pre owned.

Lease on 2009 Pilot EX 4WD by jessedylan

I've been watching this board for about five months, and while it's helpful, I'm finding that I'm not getting the value some have mentioned. After much back and forth, this is what I'm down to:
 
$28,599 price
$2,699 down
$399 / month (that's after tax)
12,000 miles a year
0.00151 money factor
52% residual
 
Any thoughts? I might pull the trigger on it if not. I'm in the state of Washington.

What's MSRP?
 
Is the $28,599 the Net Cap Cost? (Sale Price plus fees minus down payment)

$28,599 (or $28,589 - whatevs, it's that close) is the price the dealership is giving me. The MSRP is quite a bit higher, but I don't know it off the top of my head. I'll try to get that.

You're very welcome, imy2. Honda Finance's residual values for leases with only 12,000 miles per year are 2% higher than its 15,000 mile per year residual values for most terms.

Hi Dan. Here's the information that you're looking for. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Honda Pilot EX AWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00151 and 52%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its "Super Preferred" credit tier.
 
When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take the $1,500 dealer cash that is currently available on it into account.

Help! Did Hone get rid of the Dealer Cash? by jasonscott

Was about to pull the trigger this weekend on an Accord EX-L Auto 4Cyl w/ Navi AND a Pilot Touring 2WD.
 
Had my numbers all worked out with the dealer, but spoke to them today and they now say that there is no more incentive on the Accord and the Pilot incentive dropped!
 
Oh Boy this may be a deal breaker!
 
Can someone give me the current incentives on the Pilot Touring and the MF and resid for 36 months?
 
Any help would be appreciated.
