Sick of Change

Okay so I just got back from the dealer here in Torrance, and talked leased deals. They expect me to pay $450 a month for 48 months on a LEASE for the new TSX, are they insane? I'm paying $325 WITH tax for my A4 which I got brand new, I told them it's obvious you don't want my business, have a nice day. "Well the TSX is in high demand and Acura isn't making enough of them..." well Acura needs to get on their game then...nice car, but no thanks for that price.

So why don't you buy it instead?

Besides, a 48 month lease is a bad idea anyway. If you can front the payments, it's cheaper to finance.

As an aside, I received a 6% finance rate over 60 mo (don't ask...I've already been pissed off at the credit reporting agencies for tons of errors on my report). As it stands, I put $500 down on the car, and have a $485/mo. payment.

Yes, $450/mo. on a lease is ridiculous, although not too far off.

Acura.com lists a 0-down, 48 mo, 15K/year TSX w/ NAVI for $430 on a lease. Non-NAVI is $386.

You can always try another dealer. Here's the nearest Precision Dealer in the area:

Exactly, I can buy a car for that price...hell I coulda been buying my A4 now for that...if I could afford it I obviously would.

It's generally not a good idea to be driving a car you can't afford. Still you should see if your bank offers leases or perhaps go with a lease broker.
