Price increase!

Just heard that Acura is jacking up MSRP $800 (USD) across its lineup. Got to love inflation…

Law of supply and demand. Very little supply. My 2019 MDX's lease is coming up in March. My dealer says I might as well buy it out as there are no new cars to be had. No way I could get a better used car for the buyout.

Sad to say it but in this market, $800 not too bad. I know it’s weird to say it but overall, it’s not bad.

What is the buyout going to be? The used car market is cooling in my area (I've been watching many cars since I'm in the market for a replacement vehicle) but yeah the new market is wild, at least with some manufacturers and Acura is definitely one.

From what I am reading of the goings on in the auto market, I am glad that I took advantage of the $3k "equity" in my 2019 leased MDX Advance (leased to June 2022), in August 2021. Moreover, Acura kicked in a $1k Loyalty award as a Come On in July. It was that letter I received form my 2019 ACura Dealer that prompted me to inquire about the new 2022. After Tons of YT video reviews with high acclaim, I wenty to see it and drive it. Once I did, Bingo I was Hooked. But as I posted elsewhere in the forum, I am a "Shopper". After getting ridiculous numbers from my original dealer, I went to 2 others in my area. The 3rd Dealer, Curry Acura in Scarsdale NY (Westchester county), gave me the Best Deal. I saw the posted Pics of a Fathom Blue Pearl from another poster on a different Forum, and saw other colors on their lots (White, Black/Purpleish, a Liquid Mettalic [which looked to be the best color for the car BUT hated the mixed Bronze interior] ), I was Hooked to the FBP with the graystone interior. Took that car for another spin, and signed the lease that day. FRC, the dealer paid me about $36,000 for my 2019 with 21K miles on it (well under my lease allocation of 12K miles per year), and about 2 weeks later my car which was Mint, was on their lot for $41,999 (Canyon Bronze Mettalic / Camel [brown]leather interior). I checked their POV about 1 week later - it was gone. I retired in May 2021 , 70 yo , really didn't need a 3 Row SUV, but was accostomed to the space and comfort of it (never had my grandchildren in my 2019). Even though my lease payment was higher, and I did put up another $2500 in Cap cost (which I would I have done in June 2022 ), the current scenarios of stock shortage and MSRP's being Bumped for Inflatioon, I think I did very well and I am enjopying my new MDX Advance immencely.
