Does this sound like a good deal?
In southern california i was offfered the following deal on a 09 TL AWD / tech, 15k miles, 36 months, $1000 drive off, money factor is .00237, residual is 54% of MSRP ($42,995.00) and the selling price (net cap cost) of $38,200.00. They tell me the monthly payment will be 579.69 per month plus tax. Is this a good deal ?? How should i respond. Thanks gang.. scott
Got a final proposal for the 09 Acura TL SHAWD with tech, with 15K miles, 36 months and $1000 due at signing.... monthly payment will be $550 per month plus tax for a total payment of about $594.00 per month, based on a net cap cost of $37,500. Now here is the kicker, I told them that the front end "smiley face" look with the chrome/metal finish grill looks really bad. So they will have the front grill factory painted without any additional cost. I figured that was about a $300 paint job savings from a body shop. A painted grill to match the color of the car looks very nice and much better than the stock ugly grill. I researched this matter extensively and i think this is the best you can expect for the SHAWD/TECH with a painted grill thrown in. What do you all think?
Also this is for everyone on this site---BEWARE OF THE DEALER FEES. This is extra profit for these guys. This weekend, Rick Case Acura in Florida tried to slip in dealer fees of approx. $600!!!!! on my lease. READ YOUR CONTRACTS VERY CARFULLY WHEN YOU SIT DOWN WITH THE FINANCE GUY. THIS IS HOW THE START CHANGING THE NUMBERS ON YOU!!!
All 2009 TL TECH packages in stock now only $32995.00 plus tax and lic.
Lease payments with only 2500.00 total out of pocket is
10,000 miles @ 379.00 plus tax.
12,000 miles @ 389.00 plus tax
15,000 miles @ 412.00 plus tax
This is the best time to buy or lease before the TAX increase and double the license fees!
We have a large selection to chose and look forward from hearing back from you.
Hope this helps, I may do this deal soon.
Do you have the newest rates for for the TL, and TL with Tech. This information should help everyone one out in their current pricing efforts. Thx...
Of course, ask for a better deal, but remember this dealer in CA, has 128 TL's in stock, 75% TL Tech's if your dealer has 3, he may not go for it. Also noticed someone posted about a drop in M/F from Honda Fin, is this true, and what is the current M/F on a 36 mo 15,000 lease for a TL, and TL Tech.
Thanks
TY for the reply... what is M/F sorry I'm a noob
2009 TL Tech, 36 month, 15k miles per year, $2500 total out of pocket and 435 a month plus tax
selling price of 34,000, residual of 56% and money factor of .00237, been told this $2316 under invoice
dealer wont break out the 2500 cost other than first month, inceptions, document and Motor vehicle fees this is a NJ dealer
or

When negotiating your lease on this car, make sure to take advantage of the dealer cash that is currently available on it.

The dealer invoice price of an '09 TL Tech is $35,556. There's $2,000 dealer cash on the Tech model, so that drops the invoice to around $33,556. You were quoted a selling price of right around that. Of the two cars, this is the better deal. The fact that the dealer was willing to sell you a Tech for that close to invoice leads me to believe that you might be able to shave another couple hundred dollars off of the base model if you drove a hard bargain.
Either way, as long as the dealer is using the buy rate to calculate your payments both off these offers are very reasonable.

Once you have arrived at a selling price that you are comfortable with, make sure that the dealer calculates your car's monthly payment using its buy rate lease money factor of .00237 (for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier).

Is this in line with what you were told? If not, I'll check again to see if Acura has made any changes.

Which dealer did you end up buying/leasing the car from?
I'm not sure if you still frequent the board, so would anybody else know?
Thanks.
Here is the deal I signed for my 09 TL Tech in California.
FYI, Since I did not qualify for Super Preferred because my Credit
Score was between 700 and 710, they gave me only Preferred
at the higher Money Factor which I why stated there was a
change in the MF, as also illustrated by their TL Tech Ad
on the Acura Website for $429.00 Per Month.
Here the breakdown of my deal with $2000.00 out of pocket.
MSRP 39445.00
Base Cap Cost 33755.00
Costs Added to Lease 624.00
Cap Cost Reduction 1101.00
Adjusted Cap Cost 33278.00
Residual 23273.00
Money Factor .00237
Term 36 Mos
Sales Tax 8.25%
Monthly Payment wTax 445.93
Love the Car.
Worth the Money you save versus cars in its class. Enjoy Brothers & Sisters...

The price of 33833.71 includes destination. My tax in NJ was $2368.36
and they charged me $206.50 for Document/Tire fees, and $262.50 for
State MV fees for a grand total of $36671.07.
I tried to negotiate some more or get some freebies but the manager
would not budge an inch offering me some keychains instead.
Term = 36 mo & 15K miles per year
Price = 33755
MF = .00237
Residual = .56
Acq fee = 595
Govt fee = 229
Taxes 2031
Doc Fee = 95
Payment is 545.33
This is with no down payment, just 545.33 due at signing. It seems higher than everyone else, but I live in Maryland so tax may be higher.
Since I paid $396/mo. w/4k down, with $0k down, the cost would have been about $510 for 12k miles.
My money factor was also .00237 and my residual was 58%. I can buy the car for $22878.10 after 3 years.
Its a wonderful car and I love it.
2009 Acura TL TECH Silver / Taupe with Protection.
36 months
15,000 miles
$863 at sign (including first month payment)
$492 + tax (492+34.44= $526.44) WAC.
$482 + tax w/o pro pack = $515.74
I'm a newbie here. I just got a lease quote today and not sure whether this is the best deal.
$425 for 36 months
10k miles per year
$2900 down
I saw a better deal at Montclair Acura in NJ. They have $399 with $999 down.
Now sure what is included in the down payment (cap, 1st payment, etc...). Will this be all spelled in the lease agreement?. I still have to pay tax and other fees on the car, correct?
Thanks
Can you please give me the April leasing terms for the 2009 TL SH-AWD with the technology package? I'm interested in 24, 36 and 39 month leasing terms for 12K and 10K miles per year. This will be the last month I'll ask for figures because the extension on my 2006 M45 lease expires this month. Thanks in advance.

P.S. The best i could get in NY for 36 months, 15k miles, for Base with Tech pkg is $3k out of pocket (including bank fee + first month + dmv + bs doc fees) is $440+tax...Now, having $1500 loyalty from HVT (i'm an acura whore, this is my 3rd TL), made my out of pocket only $1500, which made it a great deal....
Toyota, Nissan and others especially in Bay Ridge are crooks. Even Nissan of Red Bank in NJ are the among the worst crooks, and that's not even Brooklyn any more. Staten Island dealeships are among the worst (don't even think of going to Honda or Nissan of Staten Island, they'll rip you off in a minute). You've been warned.
Plaza Mall Acura guys are decent, if they say they got the car, then they have it. It was a TL with Tech, 15K miles, 36 months, total ouf of pocket $1500 (but remember that Acura paid another $1500 loyalty).....They charged taxes up front so the Acura covered my taxes, and i wound up with $478 a month (tax not really included, but i don't care)...There was no way to do a deal at $478 w/ tax, and 0 out of pocket.......
The car is freaking sweet...It drives much softer than my '05 TL, it felt like you sitting on rocks in the back in '05 model, it's also more responsive. The tech package is worth every penny, even if it would cost an extra $1k i would still get it!!! Honda thought of every detail in this car. Grab it, you won't regret it..
Just my .02 cents for you.
Thanks all to the posts in this group and specifically replies to my messages.
Now a proud poppa of a 09 TL FWD w/Tech Package, Grigio w/Ebony
If you're buying in the Baltimore, Hartford, Frederick, or Montgomery areas of central Maryland, I can't recommend Norris Accura more highly (Route 40 off of I-29 at the I-70 interchange). This is our third Acura, second from Norris, and it's been top-knotch in every way. Call and ask for the internet group guys - If you did your homework ahead of time they'll get you to your price. If you're going out to Frankel, from Owings Mills, Pikesville or Towson, it's only and extra 2-5 miles to Norris and well worth the experiene.
Keep up the good work and thanks again.
Can you please give me the April residual and MF (36 months and 12,000 per) for the 2009 TL SH-AWD Tech? Thanks in advance.

Dealers in New Jersey have to add sales tax to cars' monthly payments, but it is impossible for me to know whether this has already been done on the $425 payment that you were quoted. Make sure to find out if it already includes sales tax before proceeding.

All of the above money factors are for consumers who qualify for Honda Finance's top aka "Super Preferred" credit tier. Its 10,000 mile per year residual values are 1% higher.

Also, I read a post in March that if you are a current Acura lessee you can get an additional $1500 reduction? Is this true and if so is it still current for April?
Thanks so much! I really appreciate your help!
