Some douchebag cut me off and smashed in the front of my 2008 on 1/1/08. I wish I had the option to just turn mine in! 
But I work in finance, so I know that there is no "Hot deal" that makes leasing to buy a good option in the long run.

[QUOTE=Ad_Man_TL][QUOTE=MR1]Why on earth would Acura want to help you out? You took their brand new car and broke it.
1) They should want to help us, because that would be TLC (Total Luxury Care).
2) Because we are "renting" it from them. their car getting damaged is the cost of them renting cars (lease being a fancy term for renting).
If you rent a room in a hotel and there is a leaking pipe, etc. they just move you to a new room. I want to be moved to a new car.
3) we did not wreck it. a psychotic lady in front of my wife (who was NOT tailgating her) paniced and slammed on her brakes. she was probably on her cell phone or texting for all we know. perhaps even on meds or had been drinking for all we know. so it is not our fault. but Minnesota has no fault, etc.
Maybe she was even conveying military secrets to her home based terrorist cell on her cellular phone. Doesn't matter. Your wife was still responsible for maintaining a safe distance between the two cars and ensuring no contact at any point. And the damage is obviously extensive, which means she hit her hard.
If I slammed on my brakes because a toddler wandered out into the road and you rear ended me, would you blame me or the child?
Seems like you can't own up to anything. Your wife smashes the car and it's not her fault; it was the "psychotic" lady's fault who was in front of her. Now Acura should take back the car you agreed to lease for X amount of time because you don't want it anymore since it's been wrecked. You need to get the fuck over yourself.

Regarding diminished value, if awarded, it comes from the person that makes the value of your product go down. In a perfect world, you owe Acura additional funds for giving back a damaged/repaired car at lease end.

Anger issues? No, not clinically speaking. I just cannot stand it when, adults especially, cannot accept responsibility for their actions and honor their obligations.

You two, funny. but not.
I am probably one of the most responsible and righteous person in the world. So I take a great office to your comments.
Clearly you are jealous of my high status and high expectations.
I pay Acura for the use of their car, so clearly I owe them nothing to them, especially when that low income check panicked and slammed on her brakes. btw, she even admitted total fault at the scene.
Obviously you two are very young and it shows in your posting.
IMO anx1300c your use of profanity and personal attacks would mean you would have been banned at most forums. strange enough, here the mods say they are very lax. which seems odd for a primo brand car site like Acura where I 'd expect standards to be higher. but I suppose without all the 22 year old rice boy rap (crap) music listening morons living in their mothers basements here no one else would be posting much as the rest of us are much to busy, too high class and too important to spend time posting on a car chat site.
Best wishes for you both to grow up and make something of yourselves in the future. anx1300c you really need to deal with controlling your anger and jealousy issues.
End of discussion.

Okay, this 63YOA will chime in here and agree with ANX and MR1, you signed on the dotted line and you are responsible for the duration of the lease. And no matter what the "psyco" lady said at the scene, in the cold eyes of the law your wife IS responsible for not "ensuring safe and clear distance". And just an observation... when folks' anger quotient goes up their spelling ability goes way down.

"I take great office to your comments"???
"That low income check"??? (Perhaps she was Czechoslovakian?)
We've all heard the old adage "ignorance is bliss", so maybe I am a little jealous of this guy. Oh well, I'll just go vent my anger on the rodents in the basement. If I save up enough rent money, I might be able to buy a '98 Integra and find out what "High Society" life is all about.

Enough bashing and counter bashing. All useful information has long since been entered here so there is no point in prolonging the agony.
