I understand that the new 2018s will initially not be discounted much/any, but I wonder if lease offer pricing is known? I suspect in lease offers Acura can't price itself too much above current Lexus ES/IS offers ($329/month, 4K down at signing). Any ideas? And just when will we see them advertise and release full specs? With android auto, the tech package's NAV system is mostly negated but full leather and BSI and cross traffic alert are needed (other goodies are welcome too no doubt). So many even entry level midsize sedans now offer android auto and BSI in base models, too bad one has to spend $3500 or so extra on TLS to step up to BSI safety feature.

 

Lease pricing is based mainly on what the dealer charges for the car, which as you point out, probably won't be discounted much, at least initially.

The deals will be on the leftover 2017s.

I'm not even sure the 2018 Lexus ES/IS models are even out yet. Last I looked, my dealer still had some 2016s they were trying to move a few months ago.
