Thinking of leasing a 2010 TSX what prices are u guys getting?

I just sold my car and am dropping my 2001 CL-S with 175K miles for $3500. I was gonna do a swap lease on a 2009 Maxima but this kid is jerking me around. I got some payments on a 2010 TSX base with $2000 TOP $385 for 15K miles a year and tech is $454.

There is really not much wiggle room in the TSX lease. The price you gave I assume includes tax is very fair.

Seriously....with the low interest rates being offered today by credit unions the only way to guy is to finance instead of lease.

I just got a new job at infiniti sales and it's feast or famine. I would love a g37x but it's $175 more a month. I want to get the new m when it comes out of when this lease is up. I just want something to hold me for a few years that's why I'm going 30 months. If I lease and buyout at the end it comes out the same price in the end but leasing keeps my payment at $380 instead over $500 if I finance. With this lease deal I think leasing is the way to go on a base tsx.

When I traded in my truck, I had alot of equity, thats why I bought. If I didn't have a decent down payment, I would consider a lease. I just don't like the thought of "renting" a car.

i bought a CL new almost 10 years Ago i put down 5K and payed like 550 a month for 5 years and then a tranny / tires/ coil packs so I added up how much I spent on the car maintence, interest and all that stuff (not gas or insurance) and it came out to almost $50K so thats about 5K a year the last 10 years..
OK leasing the TSX $364 X 36 = 13,140 + 2000 (down payment) is $15,140 so a little over $5,000 a year to drive a new car every 3 years so after 10 years I would have been on my 4th lease and spent the same amount I spent now and am driving a 10 year old car that is worth less then I payed for the new trans.. MAKES SENSE TO ME!!

I am in the car buesness (work for ramsey infiniti in NJ so let me know if u guys need anew g or m) and am in the process of selling me 2001 CL-S even though I just payed over 3K for a new tranny cuz now its leaking oil from the rear main seal. I was doing my math on the car and all the payments, interest, maintence ,trannies, coil packs, brakes, mods and came out to about $50,000 in almost 10 years (it will be 10 in march) for a $30,000 car...follow me...
Now the TSX is costing me $364 x 36months = $13,150 + $2000 down payment so total of $15,150 for 3 years..So that is a little over 5K a year for a $30,000 car.. So if i started leasing instead of buying I would have been on my 4th NEW car and spent a total of the same money I spent now and am driving a 10 year old car the is worth less then I payed to have the tranny rebuilt... Sounds like a no brainer for me...
Also I dunno how many time I seen people finance a car even at 0% and they come in 3 years later and they are upsidown..
If u financed a TSX at 0% with the same amount down as the lease ($2000) the payement on the finance would be AT LEAST $150 more a month and thats a 0% for 60 months which Acura almost never does so if you went to trade that car in after 3 years your payment was $150 more the past 3 years and u most likely will be upsidown or break even if you are lucky..
Lemme know what you guys think of all this..

Nothing personal, but I'm trying to figure out why someone in the car buesness (sic) with Infiniti is buying something from one of Infiniti's top competitors. Seems like any employee special deal you can get on your own G37s should beat anything you could get on a TSX from another dealer.

Anywho, the place where your money reasoning in assessing lease vs. finance is incorrect is that you are assuming that you will have to buy 3 new transmissions on anything you keep for 10 years. Granted that is what you went thru, but that is probably a 1 in 10000 shot of that happening, even if the early Honda V6 Automatic transmissions were problem prone. For that to happen to you on a 2nd car in a row, well, I'd go buy some lottery tickets QUICK. Honda I4 powertrains are as bulletproof as anything on the market, so the odds are even smaller.

With 2k down and 15K miles I can get a G37x for 460/month $100 more then the TSX and its 9 months more.. I just started working her bought my first condo, and got engaged.. $100 does not sound like alot but insurance is about $500 cheaper a year on a TSX and gas savings prob $25/month from 4 to 6.. so thats saving me $2K a year the next 3 years taking a TSX over a G37x..I know it does not sound like alot but the buesness is shaky right now

Signed the paperwork yesterday so here it goes for anyone else THINKING of leasing a BASE tsx..
30 Months 15K miles a year 37600 miles when I give it back (put 100 miles on buyers order) $380 a month is my payment <-----that includes EVERYTHING TAXES/FEES/EVERYTHING!!! with TOTAL $2000 out of pocket..
65% Residual..Buyout is almost $20K (which I will not be buying) and I have $1500 in excess wear protection at the end of the lease (3 diff accedentals at $500 each) AND NO DISPOSITION FEE.. Infiniti has a $595 dispo fee!
I added Tire and wheel package for the wholer term for $300 so that bumped my payment to $390 ... Picking up MONDAY..I CANT WAIT!!!!
