Hello,

I am looking to purchase a 2008 Acura rdx with tech. The offer that I have received online is for 33k for the 2008. The other option I have is to lease a 2009 rdx with tech package for 419 for 36 months. Do you think the 2008 is a good deal or should I be able to get a better deal on the car. A third option is a 2007 rdx with tech for 26k. Please help with suggestions. Thanks so much.

 

You can do A LOT better than 33k before TTL. If it were 33k OTD, that's another story...

 

Since 09's are in now, you'll definitely get a much better deal on 08's. The dealership just wants to get those off the lot now.

 

Well, I got mine for 33k out the door. I am pretty sure you can do the same deal as well or lower. I'm not sure whether this is a hot deal though, anyone got lower before?

 

Or get a used one like I did, there are several available on Autotrader.com

 

Yeah I figured it should be more like 33k out the door instead of 33k +tax,title,processing. I also wanted to see what you thought about my other two options which are a 2007 used or a lease option. The lease option for an 2009 with tech package. 36 months + 15,000 miles is $489 a month with $5,547 due at signing. I have never leased a car, what do you think of the lease. The other option is to buy a used 2007 rdx with tech with 24k miles for 24,500 out the door. Thanks for all of your help and advice.

 

The break down for the $ due at signing is

$1004-processing fee ($399) and aquisition fee ($595)

$38.75-tag fee

$489-first months payment (oh yeah, you will only be responsible for 35 more payments because $489 is included as part of your upfront costs.)

$1170-sales tax (3.17%)

Cap Cost (money down)-$2,845

TOTAL: $5,547

What part of the break down should I be able to get down.
