    this is true however GAP is a must have for any lease
  • chwtomchwtom Member Posts: 46
    is the acquisition fee essentially gap insurance? and should the aquisition fee bee added onto the negotiated price of the car? for example, i would like to lease a crv ex-l awd. i found a dealer who will lease it to me with a selling price of invoice (24,800), but said the aqcuistion fee (595) would be added on to that. is that how it works?

    We just leased a 2007 AWD CRV. The acquisition fee was explained to us as being the gap insurance. Also, it was added on to the price of our car as well.

    We got a 0 down, monthly payment of 376.83 for 12K miles/36 month. Negotiated price was 23700 with 595 acquisition fee, and a silly 42 dollar document fee.

    I just picked up our new royal blue CRV EX-L with AWD. We got it from Boyland Honda in Greenfield, Wisconsin. I can't recommend them high enough, particularly the internet sales manager.

    We leased it for the following parameters:
    Price: $24,900
    36 month lease, 15k miles per year
    Money factor .00285
    Residual 61%
    Acquisition fee $595
    License and doc fees $203

    I emailed all the other dealers in the area, and Boyland was the only one willing to go near invoice. I ended up getting the truck for 100 over invoice. The best prices i got from other dealers were 500-100 over invoice.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi,

    I am currently near the end of my negotiations for a Honda CR-V. The internet manager is quoting me the following price:

    MSRP $20,600
    Destination $595
    Quoted price $19950

    The invoice price is $19600, so this is $350 over invoice. Is this a good deal? If so, what should I expect to pay per month? We have yet to discuss the lease offer, but I would like to have 15,000 miles/yr and a 36 or 48 month lease.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi Carman,

    Sorry for the late reply! The selling price was: $23,450 (MSRP was ~$24k).

    To recap:
    - Honda CRV 2007, 2WD EX
    - 35 months, 12k
    - $1,000 down
    - $377 monthly including tax

    Thanks!

    Does anyone know the February Residual and Money Factor for 2007 CR-V EX 2wd 36mo/15k.
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi kwokpot. The money factor that was used to calculate your CR-V's lease payment looks about right. You were only given a $500 discount on this truck. I am not personally all that familiar with what the market is like for the '07 CR-V in your area, but I personally would have shot for a slightly larger discount than that. If you want additional feedback on the price that you paid for this truck, make sure to stop by the following discussion: "Honda CR-V: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". I definitely would not say that you got "taken" on this deal, but you may have been able to negotiate another couple hundred dollars off of your truck's selling price.

    Greetings bifurd. You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the CR-V that you are interested in leasing. These are important numbers for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing this truck's selling price in relation to its MSRP you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on it. The second reason is that one needs the selling price and MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion on this deal if you let me know what these numbers are.

    For now I can tell you that the amount that is due at lease signing for this lease is too high. Consumers can and should lease any vehicle that they are interested in without making any sort of capitalized cost reduction. I always advise consumers against making large down payments on leases because those who do risk losing them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered.

    Hi chwtom. All banks that lease vehicles to consumers charge acquisition fees. Honda Finance charges a $595 acquisition fee on every vehicle that it leases, regardless of its price. Since Honda Finance leases come with gap insurance at no additional charge I guess that one could say that part of the acquisition fee is used to pay for it. You can either pay your vehicle's acquisition fee at lease signing or add it into your vehicle's capitalized cost and bake it into your monthly payment.

    Hello superfille. $350 over dealer invoice is a very good price for a 2007 CR-V. Do the MSRP and dealer invoice price that you mentioned include the destination charge? They need to be included in the calculation of your vehicle's monthly payment. For now I will assume that they don't. Correct me if I am wrong. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2007 Honda CR-V LX 2WD with an MSRP of $21,195 and a selling price of $19,950 ($350 over the $19,600 invoice price + $595 destination) through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $304. The payment for an otherwise identical 48 month lease should be around $283. These payments assume that you qualify for Honda Finance's "Super Preferred" credit tier and pay a security deposit at lease signing.

    Thanks for the additional information, choncho06. OK, so you are considering leasing a 2007 Honda CR-V EX 2WD that has an MSRP of $24,000 and a selling price of $23,450. A base 2007 CR-V EX 2WD has a spread of around $1,700 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice price. You were quoted a discount of $550 on this truck. That leaves over $1,000 to play with. It wouldn't hurt to shop around or negotiate with this dealer some more to see if you get a larger discount. When you arrive at a price that you are comfortable with, make sure that the dealer you are working with uses Honda Finance's buy rate lease money factor to calculate your monthly payment. Honda Finance's current standard buy rate for a 36 month lease of this truck is .00275 for consumers who qualify for its "Super Preferred" credit tier and pay a security deposit at lease signing.

    Hi all, My first time to the forum. I need help negotiating lease terms on a 2007 CRV. Here is what the dealer quoted me today: MSRP $28,595, 36mos, 15k, $2000 down total monthly lease incl. tax = $428. Does that seem high. I really wanted to pay in the low $300. What should I ask for to get a lower payment. I'm in Omaha, Nebraska. Thanks in advance for your help.
  • superfillesuperfille Member Posts: 3
    Hi Carman,

    Thanks so much for the details on the LX CR-V. That's very helpful. My car just came in, so I am going to pick it up tomorrow barring any unforeseen circumstances.

    On that note, thanks again and thanks to everyone on this forum. I have learned a TON about the leasing and purchase process from this site and I really appreciate it.

    Hi Carman -
    I would like to lease a 2007 Honda CR-V EX 2WD in Westchester County, NY. The lowest price I've been quoted is $23,900 including the $595 destination charge (I hope?!). The dealers claim the car is so hot, they don't have any in stock...there is a 4-8 week wait. I know the MSRP is $23,445. How can I negotiate a lower price when the demand is so high? And what would be a good monthly price to pay for a 36-month lease, 15K miles/year, zero down OR $1000 down?
    Thanks!
  • wreillswreills Member Posts: 2
    what is a good deal on this vehicle, like to know the current money factor, and residual value %, a 3 year lease and 12000 miles a year
  • upstatenyerupstatenyer Member Posts: 2
    Hello all

    Carman, if you're out there, please reply, I need help in the next 24 hours!!

    Looking to lease the above vehicle, MSRP with destination is 22,395.

    Offered 0 down, 36 month, 36K mile lease for monthly payment of $356, with 8% NY State sales tax included. (so I guess without tax its zero down, 36 months at $329.63 per)

    I dont know the residual and money factor for this vehicle, but is this a good deal or should I negotiate further, if possible. Seems to beat many other offers I see here.

    What do you, or anyone out there think? Should I do it?

    Thanks for the input.
  • upstatenyerupstatenyer Member Posts: 2
    OK, nobody replied, so I took the deal, figured I'd share what I actually paid:

    Off the lot price (all DMV fees, reg, tire waste included):

    359.60/month
    36 months
    12K miles

    Even better, they let me put ZERO down (literally signed and drove off) and divided my total over 35 payments to start next month, making it 377.62 x 35 payments over 36 months.

    What does everyone think? I know on the grand scheme of car buying its average, but for a HOT car at this time of year I thought it was the best I could do.

    Oh, for everyone out there, dealer was Saratoga Honda, Saratoga Springs, NY, and I would give them my highest recommendation. They will negotiate over internet/phone/fax and deliver to other states as well, I may continue to use them if I leave the area!
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Welcome mmj. Honda is not currently providing any lease support on the 2007 CR-V. As a result, its lease program isn't great. I would be happy to use its current lease program to estimate what your monthly payment should be for the exact truck that you are interested in, but in order for me to do so I need you to provide me with its selling price. Always remember that the selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without knowing what this truck's selling price is, it is difficult to tell how good a deal you are getting. Let me know what this number is and I'll tell you what I think of this deal.

    Hello yf342. Honda Finance probably has the best available lease program on both of the models that you are interested in. You should be able to get a good idea of what sort of selling price you will have to pay for these vehicles by visiting the following discussions: "Honda CR-V: Prices Paid & Buying Experience" and "Honda Accord: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".

    Once you have decided what price you want to pay you can estimate these vehicles' lease payments by using the following lease programs. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2007 Honda CR-V LX 4WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00380 and 71%, respectively. As you can see, Honda's 24 month lease program for this truck is pretty bad. You would be better off leasing it for 36 months. The numbers for a 36 month, 15k lease of it are .00280 and 62%.

    Honda Finance's current 24 month, 15,000 mile per year buy rate lease money factor and residual value for the 2007 Accord SE V6 are .00090 and 57%.

    Hi frenchbuff. Honda has enough dealers in the New York area that it wouldn't hurt to shop around a little bit, but if no dealers have CR-Vs in stock, it is going to be difficult to get much of a discount on one. Let's work up a couple of sample lease payments for you based on different selling prices. Let's start with a selling price of full MSRP. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2007 Honda CR-V EX 2WD that has an MSRP and a selling price of $23,900 through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $379. A $500 discount would drop this truck's payment to around $364. A $1,000 discount would drop it to $349. Lastly, a $1,500 discount would drop it to $333.

As far as the price that you will be able to negotiate on this truck goes, the recent posts from consumers who are in the market for this vehicle indicate that dealers haven't been providing much in the way of discounts on it.

    Hello all,,,new guy here so I hope this is in the right spot.I'm interested in a 2007 CRV LX 2WD..and wish to lease one here in GA.Local dealer has four of them on the lot and is offering a "special" $259 per month 36 month lease with $2990.00 down.This doesn't seem special in any way to me.The sticker says $21,700 which is close to the MSRP($20,600)
    for that model.I want to be in that monthly range but not by shelling out 3k for a lease. Should I try another dealership? Hope I didn't highjack the thread.

    I'm trying to help an elderly friend with his first lease. He's giving his 1998 CR-V to his granddaughter and wants to lease a 2007 LX AWD. Money really isn't an issue, he just doesn't feel the need for all the toys, hence the LX. He really only needs 10k/year on mileage, wants to just sign and drive. Dealer is quoting a price of $22300 to base the lease on.

    My friend thinks he wants a 60 month lease. I told him that the maintenance he will need to do will negate the savings, and that a longer lease doesn't always equal a lower payment. Where is the residual the best on a CR-V LX AWD? Thanks!
  • stevecarstevecar Member Posts: 148
    Noone should lease a car for longer than the warrantee. If something happens after 36 months, you will be fixing a car that you are giving back. Chances are it will need tires, brakes, etc and then you will replace these items and return car. The beauty of a 36 month lease is if you do 10k miles a year, your only outlay will be iol and wiper blades.
  • toledotomtoledotom Member Posts: 4
    That's what I told my friend, I saw it click with him, doubt he's still thinking 60 months.

    Hi Car_man I wonder if you can help me out here.
    I am planning to lease 2007 honda CR-V EX-L AWD with Navi. This is for 36 month 12K miles. From my research MSRP 28595 and invoice 26482. I am trying to offer the deal with 410/ month with zero down. I wonder if that is a legit offer? From what I read in the forum the Money factor is 0.0028, but I am not sure the residual... one of the dealer told me is 60%, but I read your previous post you said 62% I wonder if 60% is correct for the residual value?
  • pegasus17pegasus17 Member Posts: 536
    If money isn't an issue, perhaps he should buy the CR-V as it will hold its value well just like all Hondas do. I saw a TV ad for 4.9% financing for 60 months. just my .02
  • sundoggysundoggy Member Posts: 2
    Regarding my 2007 CR-V. This dealer wants me to go in and run credit check first then will tell me the money factor. Is that a common sign of a dirty tactic? Some other dealer just told me right over the phone or internet. This dealer first quoted me $200 more than other dealers...this already kind of pissed me off then they called again and "you have to bring in a paper quoted by the other dealer in order to match closer to their offer." I am going into the dealership to do my final negotiation, but I think this dealer is trying scam me. Any thoughts?

    Hello Car_Man- Can you tell me if Honda offers a non-traditional lease where I can prepay a 36 month lease and not pay as substantial finance charge? Lexus calls this a "Multiple Down Payment Lease". I really like this arrangement because I do not want to pay all of the sales tax upfront and I want the option of not buying it at the end of the term while getting (refundable)GAP insurance. Thanks.
  • trbl39trbl39 Member Posts: 2
    Hi. I have a 2004 Honda CRV and lease is ending in June. My daughter will be purchasing it and will need to finance part of it. She already has loan approval from a credit union. Honda's end of lease info states they are unable to conduct 3rd party sales such as a sale to a friend or family member. They can only sell leased vehicles to lessee(me). They say for me to send the full payoff amount to receive the title. And then when I receive title the law requires me to transfer the title to my own name and pay any applicable sales tax. Okay, does this mean they send me the title and I go transfer it to my name, pay the state(PA 6%) tax, and then I have to transfer it again to my daughter's name and then pay the tax again? Or do i just get the title from them and transfer it directly to her? Just how does this work. Will the title come to me with Honda's name on it? I have gotten 3 different answers from a Honda dealer, an auto tag notary and the credit union where the loan is coming from. I don't want to have to pay tax twice. Thanks!
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Welcome gutshot1. You are right to be hesitant about putting that much money down on a lease. I always advise consumers not to make down payments when leasing. Those who do risk losing them of their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Consumers can lease any vehicle that they want without making any sort of capitalized cost reduction.

    Let's work up a sample lease payment on this truck using Honda Finance's current lease program and see what we come up with. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2007 Honda CR-V LX 2WD that has an MSRP of $21,195 and a selling price of $20,509 ($750 over invoice) through Honda Finance right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $299. The lack of lease support on this model makes it difficult to do much better than that.

    Hi kisyntym. The last time that I checked, consumers needed to have a credit score of 710 or higher to qualify for Honda Finance's top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier. To qualify for the next tier down from that, its "Preferred" tier, consumers need a score of 709 to 660.

    Hi toledotom. The price that your friend was quoted is a little on the high side. The full MSRP for a 2007 Honda CR-V LX 4WD is $22,395, so the quote only includes a $95 discount :surprise: . I am not intimately familiar with what the market is like for this model right now, but you should be able to do better than that. I personally would shoot for $500 to $1,000 over invoice. Try stopping by the following discussion to see how much other community members have paid for similar cars lately: "Honda CR-V: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".

    Your friend definitely should not do a 60 month lease. That is a really long time to be committed to one vehicle. Plus, once the CR-V's 3 year / 36,000 mile basic warranty expires he will have to pay to fix anything that goes wrong with it (other than powertrain issues) out of his own pocket. I usually recommend that consumers lease for 36 months or so, 48 at the longest. Let's compromise and work up a 48 month lease assuming a selling price of $750 over invoice. According to my calculations, the zero down, pre-tax monthly payment of a 2007 Honda CR-V LX 4WD that has an MSRP of $22,395 and a selling price of $21,623 ($750 over invoice) leased through Honda Finance for 48 months with 12,000 miles per year (I'm not sure if Honda Finance leases Honda models with only 10,000 miles per year) would be around $287.

    Hi sundoggy. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Honda CR-V EX-L AWD without navigation with 12,000 miles per year are .00280 and 62%, respectively for consumers who pay a security deposit at lease signing and qualify for its "Super Preferred" credit tier. Shoot for a selling price of $500 to $1,000 over invoice, the lower the better, and have the dealer use this lease program to calculate your monthly payment.

    Hi pegasus17. Given the lack of lease support on it, financing the CR-V instead of leasing it isn't a bad idea, but to the best of my knowledge Honda is not currently offering any special financing rates on it.

    Hi sundoggy. This isn't necessarily a dirty tactic as you put it. Honda Finance's money factors vary by credit tier. One needs a credit score of 710 or higher to qualify for its "Super Preferred" tier. It has other, higher money factors for consumers who don't qualify for its top tier. By not telling you what this vehicle's money factor is until they run your credit the dealer is accomplishing two things: they give you an accurate idea of the specific money factor that you qualify for and they make you feel more committed to the deal. If another dealership treated you better and offered you a lower selling price why are you still working with this one?

    Greetings roco23. Since you are new to the world of leasing, you definitely should check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com prior to visiting any dealers: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.

    You absolutely should negotiate the lowest possible selling price on the CR-V that you are interested in prior to discussing its monthly payment. There's no need to mislead the dealer to make them think that you are paying cash for or financing it, be honest about your intention to lease but firm that you want to negotiate the selling price before discussing monthly payments. I am not intimately familiar with what the market is like for the CR-V right now, but if I was in the market for one I personally would shoot for $500 to $1,000 over dealer invoice. You may be able to get an idea of how much you will have to pay for this truck right now by visiting the following discussion: "Honda CR-V: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".

    You can use the formula that is described in the above article to calculate this truck's lease payment. To do so you will need the exact MSRP and selling price of the CR-V that you want, along with its money factor and residual value. Honda Finance's ease program for this truck varies by term and mileage allowance. I can give you an idea of what it is currently like, but I am going to have to make an assumption about these variables. For now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. Honda Finance's current 36 month, 15,000 mile per year buy rate lease money factor and residual value for the 2007 CR-V EX 4WD without leather or navigation are .00280 and 61%, respectively.

    I believe that Honda Finance includes gap insurance with its leases at no additional charge.

    Hello finbar. Pre-paid leases are different than making additional security deposits. Many banks do offer consumers a reduction in the money factor that they use to calculate the interest portion of leases for consumers who pre-pay. I have never heard of anyone pre-paying for a lease through Honda Finance or making additional security deposits on a lease through it, so I don't know if it offers these programs. I suspect that it doesn't, but I don't know for certain. You will need to check with a dealer to see if it does. If it turns out that Honda does offer pre-paid leases or allow MSDs, it would be great if you would let everyone here know. Thanks.

    Hi,
    I'm looking for the lease rates (factor and residual) for a 2007 CRV EX-L 4WD in Orange County, CA. The lowest price I'm being quoted so far is $24,895.00 Is this a "good" price or can I expect to do better? I'm looking for a 3 year lease at 15k miles a year.
    Thanks
