Sorry to break it to you, but I've leased several Hondas and unfortunately I don't think I've ever had any equity at lease end. My guess is you'll be upside down too. Just don't get your hopes up.
 
Everyone pays the tag and title fees.

I have owned several Honda's and had only leased one prior to my Ridgeline. I leased a 2000 Odyssey LX for 36 months, 45K miles and at lease end I had about $2,300 in equity. The vehicle was worth about 16K and my buyout price was $13,750. I don't know if this is typical or not. The Odyssey's supply was lower than the demand for a few years which probably contributed to this.

Hello kayakdog. You are in luck if you have not leased this truck yet. Honda recently enhanced its lease program on it. I will estimate what its lease payment should be like for you using the prices that you mentioned and the new improved lease program. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2006 Honda Ridgeline RTS with an MSRP of $30,625 and a selling price of $27,256 through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $258. As you can see, this payment is much more attractive than the one that you were quoted last month.

Car_man I have not pulled the trigger yet on a RTS lease. The dealer I've been dealing with nearly had me. Today I was there and they tried to get me to agree to a 36mo.,12mi./yr. lease with a trade allowance of $13500 on my 2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege with 18,000 mi. and a loan balance of $11040. Giving me $2460 of equity. They changed the selling price to $27577.22 and the MSRP to $30590. The residual remained at .61%.and a money factor of .00055. They quoted me a monthly payment of $250.64/mo. The numbers don't add up. If I use the Edmunds lease calculator I come up with a monthly payment of $235.76. However, in light of your information my $2460 of equity should reduce my payment under $200/mo. How do I get the new Honda lease information since the dealer didn't mention it?

Best Lease Deal Out Now by fsufan

Car_Man, what do you see as the best deal out there now regardless of vehicle type?
I guess what I'm asking is which vehicles have the best combination of high residual value and low interest rate for 36 month leases with mileage of both 12k & 15k per year. Reading the boards it looks like it may be the Ridgeline?

That's impressive. I still assume having equity at the end of a lease is rare, unless your payments were exceptionally high.
