2008 TSX inventory getting LOW. Got a great lease rate

If you want a New 2008 TSX better get to the dealer. The new lease program seems to clearing out the remaining 2008's. I spoke to the general sales manager and he clearly stated he was receiving no more 08's and expects to receive the 09's around mid April. I could not pass up the TSX's lease money factor of .00035 (.84% interest) for 36 months. I leased a nighthawk black w/ parchment and navi.

Got an excellent deal:

358.00 per month with navi.
Sign and drive. No money out of pocket.

By the way this is my second tsx. Sold my 06 to the mother-in-law about 2 months ago. The general manager did say the 09 TSX typeS would be AWD and around 260HP. around the $33-$34K range. We'll see a guess.

We'll keep my wife's 07 for at least two more years, and I figure one more for the 05 (65K miles on that now). After the scary performance of the first model year TSX and 3rd gen TL, I'm afraid I may have to look elsewhere when I replace the 05. We really like the TSX, but there's no way I'm getting caught up the first year blues.

They don't know more than people on this forum know and we still don't know if that's true or not (it's only a rumor as of now).

I'm trying to figure this whole lease thing out..I've never leased a car before, and planned on keeping my TSX till the wheels fell off (I'm kicking myself for not taking advantage of the finance incentives they had till December).

Assuming I want to keep the car after the lease, after all's said and done is it still a good deal? I took a look at the forums on Edmunds, and apparently a lot of people have been asked to put down $1499.99.. So yeah, if anyone can help school me on how to know I'm getting a good deal on a TSX, or pointing me to a good guide I'd appreciate it.

Small 06 to 08 changes.

Yes, 12,000 miles. I owned a 2006 TSX and have noticed a few mild differences in the 2006 and 2008. Here are a few very small changes, if anyone can add to or correct me please do so.

1. TMPS (tire pressure monitor)
2. Navi detects sun position and adjusts automatic climate control.
3. Silk-screened print on heated seat switches and a few other switches seem to be a larger font size.
4. volume and tuning knobs on stereo have a soft touch feel.
5. two bottons at instrument panel seem larger/softer.
6. steering wheel has a smooth leather feel. 2006 had small demples.(top of steering wheel)
7. stereo does play mp3's. Says this in the manual and sales bros.
8. Rear view mirror.

This is a very good lease. Not surprising given slow overall sales and the end of the TSX life cycle, but still good.

I am probably going to put a deposit down in a few days and hold a 6-speed w/Navi for a few weeks before I take delivery.

I was going to pick up a 2004 or 2005 for a commuter/winter car, but I think the lease is the best deal on a TSX right now, new or used.

Wow man, congrats on the nice lease rate. I wish I could have held out another 8 months, would have saved me about $3k. But then again I love my '07 PWP and the 88 crx just wasnt cutting it. lol
