    Hi, Can I get MF and Residual along with any incentives, split out for dealer vs lease?
    RDX with Advance package for both FWD and AWD. 36/10 or if they have any lower mileage like 7,500. Do they have a 24/48 months with similar mileage?

    Thanks

    Hi. New here and hoping someone can help me not get ripped off. I'm looking at RDX w/advance/Navigation sticker price is $44,975. the deal on their website is $491.09 with $3777.90 due at signing not including fees. Can you tell me what the best lease price should be? I'm going into dealership tonight. zip code is 11530.

    Thank you in advance.

    How does deal sound on the 2018 AWD RDX Advance trim - 12/36:

    MSRP - $44,975
    Discount - $4436.00
    Tax 147.99 (VA)
    Acq Fee $595
    Process Fee - $579
    Total = $43,569.29

    MF is .00106
    Residual is $26,985
    Incentive is $1250 included in above discount

    0 down payment is $552
    2500 down $478

    That tax amount does not look right - VA assess 4.1% (I think) tax rate against the entire selling price of the car.

    Confirm the adjusted cap cost with the dealer, again.

    We recommend up front cash of the first payment and DMV costs at signing.

    Oops sorry about that - typed in the wrong info for taxes.

    Taxes are $1708.30
    Tag and title are $147.99

    Now does it look like a good deal?

    If I add all the taxes and fees to the selling price, I get $519/mo

    Confirm the adjusted cap number - there is about $1150 difference in prices, based on their payment quote.

    In reference to my deal mentioned on Aug 7th, is there anything else I can do to bring the monthly payment down? If I add $490 plus the tax of $17.37, I'm looking at roughly $13 so not sure what else I can do to reduce my payment. Thanks!

    The main driver of your payment, that you have control over, is the selling price.

    First time lease. I am getting quote for RDX 2018 with Tech package for $394+ tax 12k/3years with 0 down( $394 + tax + DMV) on phone.
    With this monthly payment using .00170 MF and 60% residual for 12k/3 years and MSRP 41975, I calculated Cap cost as 35050 (16% off MSRP).

    Can you please suggest, is there any room for further negotiation on table. Are there any other cost while making down payment,

    Thanks

    I get $391/mo plus tax with those prices. Close...

    16% off sticker on a new 2018 looks to be a healthy discount. But, if you don't ask, you don't get.

    Those are good money factors - we show .00170 for a traditional lease, and .00090 for one-pay.

    What is your tax rate?

    We don't recommend any sort of down payment on a lease - that money would be at risk if the car is stolen or totaled.

    I'm within a $1 of your quote for the traditional lease.

    Thank you very helpful. My tax rate is 9%. Could you please explain why you would not look at one pay (all upfront) leases even with GAP insurance. Also for the traditional lease how do I calculate the discount that am getting off msrp for the traditional or one pay lease. Is that a good discount?

    Also is there a link for a good lease calculator. This might be a dumb question but the lease price is not the capitalized cost - correct? The capitalized cost that I get for the traditional lease is 36750 (traditional option) that implies a 9% discount. That does not seem to be a great deal. Ask for 15% - correct? First time I am leasing so wanted to make sure I understand the math

    You've listed the sale price on each of your quotes. The discount is the difference between that number and the MSRP.

    The One-pay lease is good. @michaell was referring to all the money you were putting upfront on the traditional lease.

    Hi I got two deals and would appreciate any feedback before I sign the lease for Los Altos, CA. 2018 RDX, 2WD, Technology Package.

    One pay lease (all upfront) 12k miles per year
    MSRP $40,475
    Leasing price $36,081
    Money factor 0.00026
    Residual 60%
    1 Pay $14,299
    DMV fees year 2 $358
    DMV fees year 3 $358
    Total payments $15,015

    Three year lease
    MSRP $40,475
    Leasing price $36,081
    Money factor 0.00106
    Residual 60%
    Initial down excl. fees, taxes and 1st month 2,200.00
    DMV 345.00
    Tax on cap 198.00
    Tax on doc 7.20
    Total upfront fee 117.75
    Total down with fee excl. taxes and 1st month 2,867.95
    Base monthly 327.69
    Monthly tax 29.46
    Total monthly 357.15

    Those are good money factors - we show .00170 for a traditional lease, and .00090 for one-pay.

    What is your tax rate?

    We don't recommend any sort of down payment on a lease - that money would be at risk if the car is stolen or totaled.

    I'm within a $1 of your quote for the traditional lease.
    Thank you very helpful. My tax rate is 9%. Could you please explain why you would not look at one pay (all upfront) leases even with GAP insurance. Also for the traditional lease how do I calculate the discount that am getting off msrp for the traditional or one pay lease. Is that a good discount?

    Also is there a link for a good lease calculator. This might be a dumb question but the lease price is not the capitalized cost - correct? The capitalized cost that I get for the traditional lease is 36750 (traditional option) that implies a 9% discount. That does not seem to be a great deal. Ask for 15% - correct? First time I am leasing so wanted to make sure I understand the math

    We don't track pricing, but 9% off on a 2018 looks pretty good from here.
    If you are paying for all other charges upfront, then the lease price IS the adjusted CAP cost.

    No risk. In the event of an early termination, the lease is calculated as though the payments have been made monthly, just with the lower money factor.

    Ok great. So apart from the fact that I have to pay more upfront the one pay lease is not a bad option as it might come out cheaper.  That is my understanding from the discussion above. And there is no incremental risk or other factors that I need to worry on the one pay. Please let me know if you would

    No disadvantages to one-pay, other than the opportunity cost of the money you're using.

    Lower MF results in a lower overall lease cost to you.

    Hi how does this deal sound for Acura RDX 2018 with Advance Package. AWD. Los Altos, CA that has 9% tax rate

    MSRP-$44,975.00
    Price-$39,000.00
    Adjust Cap Cost-$37,395.00
    Residual-$26,985.00
    Money Factor-0.00106
    36months/12kmiles. with $3,300.00 down
    monthly $389.24 its including tax (my tax rate is 9% so 357 without taxes).

    What does the $3300 cover? We would suggest you limit your out of pocket to just the first payment and DMV costs.

    Thank you. The 3300 covers the 389 first month instalment plus dmv of 380, tax on cap 200, plus upfront fees of 118 plus 20 of doc fees plus 2210 of down.

    Is this a good deal for the awd 2018 with advance? Are these numbers consistent

    Looks pretty good...

    With just $1000 due at signing, the payment would be about $415/mo.+tax
    Which is the way I would structure it.
