Depends.....how much is your sales tax in your state? 4k down with 10 percent tax vs 5 percent tax is a big difference. Then can decide if a good deal or not.

sales tax is 7%

Seems most of your down payment is going towards tax and fees. So, seems like a good deal to me.

Teo, with 7%, are you in Orange County, CA? (if so, as of 07/01/15, it's back up to 8%).

If so, let me know as I have a contact for you. I'm in OC and I got $524/mo + tax with $0 down for a 2016 SH-AWD Tech (10K miles/yr).

We can talk via PM on this, but on a lease, you want to put as little money down as possible. I've personally done about 12 leases and most have been $0 down. I've got a personal example of why $0 down is the best option.

You do know that $4000 down would be lost if something happens to the car don't you. It's never good to put money down on a lease.

Hi all! This seems to be an old thread but I am looking at one particular 2010 Acura RL - Tech pkg with 109K miles. Acura dealer is selling it and car had one owner who bought it from that dealership and car has all the maintenance done up to 105K miles(according to paperwork).

Is it safe to buy "high mileage" RL? I had 2003 Acura TL but other than that haven't had any other Acura experience.

You need to post your question in the Acura RL section. They will provide with the needed info of any issues and the "sweet spot" model(s) and year(s) to purchase with the best balance of performance, tech, and luxury.
