They seem to be in short supply and the best quote I got so far was around $800 a month with 0 down and 15K a year for 36 months. Even this quote was only if I wait until the beginning of next month.
Wait for one if the Advance is what you want, it is worth it. If not, go Tech or Tech/Ent and add accessories.
The Infiniti drives like a minivan which is a big drawback. On the other hand it has much a much nicer and more intuitive center stack with dedicated buttons for normal functions. It has a larger third row which is somewhat helpful. It also has the 360 camera view which is a nice addition. A fully loaded Infiniti with the same sticker price as the MDX Advance is going for about $650 a month.
My dilemma is:
Wait for an Acura and pay more, or get the Inifiniti and suffer with the lousy drive.
That is correct.. September rates have carried over into October
Thanks!

36 Month / 12k per year
$1,000 out of pocket, which included first month($610) , DMV($197.50) and some bs fees ($197 i guess to make up the difference)
$610/month (which includes 8.875% NYC taxes).
I think not to bad.
I had a $650/month (incl. taxes rolled in) deal in NY with DMV fees additional.
Is that website legit?
Also, what are the same numbers for just the AWD without the tech package?

They quoted me a MF 0.00180 and RV of 64 or 65% (I can't remember exactly) for a 2014 MDX AWD base - 12k/yr - 36month lease.
Can acura dealers mark up the MF and RV or are they set in stone by Acura?
Also, what would be a good selling price for the base excluding tax, titles etc?
This comes out to ~$585/ month... assuming it doesn't include tax. Is this a good deal?
Thanks everyone!
I just picked one up in Massachusetts with $2K down, residual for 10K is 64% and got the .00170 MF. My monthly is $525 with tax included.
I walked into the dealer with printouts from the lease calculator off Bankrate.com which takes into account MSRP, purchase price, MF, amount down, sales tax % and residual amount at lease end.
No incentives on these vehicles as they are brand new and selling really well so no chance they're selling you a new one for $44,134.
Use the bank rate lease calculator.
The MDX is loads quicker, handles much better, regularly exceeds its EPA mpg estimates and has a superior AWD system. The IDS allows you to choose between Sport, normal and comfort suspension modes, so you can have your cake and eat it too. The JX has well-documented reliability issues and will not likely maintain the resale value of the MDX. Weigh all that against the JX's bird's eye view camera, intuitive center stack and lower price, and you have a really comfortable and roomy Infiniti minivan which may be a little cheaper, but it will never be fun to drive, and the cost difference will erode over time through MDX fuel savings and higher resale. Despite the non-intuitive MDX controls, once learned, they're easy. It's just a little annoying to learn them at the start. After all the govt crash tests are through, the MDX may also to prove to be safer in a crash too.
Choosing between the FX37 (Q-whatever now) and the Acura RDX? That's a no-brainer for me, FX all day long. Hope this helped.
2014 MDX AWD, tech package and addition of auto start installed by dealership.
39 month, 12k miles a year
totalof 800 out of pocket which includes 1st payment and some fees.
$587 a month plus was able to get the rubber slush mats included. I am in N.Y. I thought a pretty solid deal.
It's a beautifully equipped vehicle that rides and handles great plus is very quiet with the acoustic glass.
Here are the lease numbers:
MSRP $49466
CAP $47597
MF .00170
LE $31411
$4217.34 Total due at signing
$542.09 per month inc. sales tax
36 months / 10k
Payment inc. side steps
WHat is your cap cost reduction, I'm guessing maybe $2500?
I wouldn't suggest including side steps in your lease payment as your then paying interest on an accessory. That's just me.
I highly suggest going to Bankrate.com and using the lease payment calculator as it will tell you exactly what your payment should be with and without tax.

Is this a good deal?
Just recently (mid October) went to Rick Case Acura in Fort Lauderdale, FL trying to trade in my 2012 base model MDX. Wanted to get rid of it due to the gas mileage and it did not have a few features that I now want.
The dealer only had a single 2014 MDX AWD Tech on the lot so I did not really have much of a choice.
The dealer wanted $4,000 down but I told him that I would only do $2,000 and he wanted to put me into a 48 month lease. My 2012 MDX is 3,000 miles under with no issues at all. I am not sure why they tried to quote me with a $721/month payment. The dealer then told me to wait till december as they are having better deals. Does this sound right? I am thinking they wanted me to pay two more payments on the car which would be about another $1,100.
MSRP: $49,460.00
Discount: $1,000 + $500
Total Discount: $1,500
Your Price for Vehicle: $47,960.00
Money Factor Assuming Excellent Credit: .00170
Residual at 15,000 Miles Per Year on a 36 Month Lease: .60
Monthly Payment with First Month Payment Due at Signing: $764.72
What are your thoughts?
Again, there were other factors in my deal that clouded the final number but I can tell you I went in with invoice as my starting point and I wasn't kicked out of the dealership so take the time to gather all the facts of what others are paying and go from there. I think once you do that you'll see that this price is too high in my opinion.
MDX AWD Advance
one-pay lease interest rate 2%
36 months/12,000 miles per year, $27,537.71
The one-pay is all-inclusive – payments, taxes and inception fees
Residual price $34,440.00
What is the December MF & Residual Value for the following
2014 SH-AWD Base for 10K / 36 M
2014 SH-AWD with tech for 10K / 36 M
2014 SH-AWD Base for 10K / 36 M
64% residual
2014 SH-AWD with tech for 10K / 36 M
63% residual

I currently live in N. Cal and I've recently requested pricing for an MDX Standard Package. I have 2 questions:
I'm in a bit of a hurry because I need to buy a car this weekend :-)
1) is the residual percentage fixed? Based on 10K miles I've been quoted 63%, 64%, and 65%. Can the residual percentage be negotiated?
2) I'm getting quotes for money factors at .0017 and .0016. These rates seem high. I'd like to get that rate to .0012. Is that realistic? Is the rate more or less fixed? Should I try for lower than .0012?
Thank you!
I don't have money factor information on that model, though..
Residuals are fixed by the bank.... anyone quoting a different residual probably isn't taking the time to look it up, or isn't accounting for the mileage allowance. The dealer has no power to change the residual.

As mentioned I probably could have squeezed a bit more on my trade-in but I think pretty reasonable.
Thanks
I have negotiated MDX with tech for 45078, and trying to get it for around 44750, please let us know if anyone had any success, I am planning to close on this Saturday.
If anyone in NJ is looking for one, we can tag along and get a better collective bargain.
hi shravanc,
Is the quote for mdx awd with tech ? Who is your dealer ? I am looking at different suvs and i have short listed acura/audi/infiniti.
