when do 07's start coming off lease

I am definitely getting a used mdx. I was going to go with an 05 or 06 but the new body style in the 07+ just looks way better (imo).

i can wait, i have a 02 tls that i drive now and even though i have two car seats in the back, I can wait a bit to get the car I want for the best deal possible.

I am looking to get the 07 as it comes off lease, can i expect to see some hit the resale market towards the end of the summer in 09? I should have enough to put at least 50% down by then (if I can find something for about 25k).

What do you guys think a reasonable price will be for an off lease mdx (base model is fine with me) with about 30k miles on it? Do you think I can score one for about 25k?

You are looking to buy at the end of summer '09?

I would suggest at least looking for a Tech package.

my price range is about 25k and i definitely want an 07 or up model. I could get an 06 right now for like 20 but I am really loving the new body style.

I dont really care too much for the tech package because any gps these days can do the same job for a few hundred bucks.

I think the Tech package has a little more than just Navi, but just in case :

While the MDX is generously equipped right from the start, it is also available with three option packages. Priced at $43,495, the MDX with Technology Package engages the tech-savvy buyer with a 10-speaker, 410-watt, Acura/ELS Surround(R) Premium Sound System engineered by legendary recording producer Elliot Scheiner to create an unmatched listening experience. In addition, the Technology Package also includes several visual and audio communications features such as the Acura Navigation System with Voice Recognition(TM) and rearview camera and the AcuraLink(TM) Satellite Communication System with Real Time Traffic.
If you can get one for ~$28k in MD right now for one, I'm pretty sure you will be able to find one in 6 months for around $25k.

I would wait until the beginning of summer next year; you should be able to even get it less than 25K especially when the face-lift is out.

I may keep my eye out for an 07 next year as well. I love the way they look.

Thanks!

I think you can buy a brand new 08 w/o tech for around 32k right now. You might want to look around.

Dealers should be trying to clear out their 08s right about now.
