That's Ohio so all of that $2,000 OOP is probably taxes.

Still doesn't strike me as a good deal.
That's not a good deal. Don't forget that you're also fighting against a car that made its 2021 MY debut in Sep 2020. I think the '22 TLX is coming out in 2 months so you may be better off waiting for the new ones and their higher residual value.

Negotiated price

[QUO


=ELIN;16742998]I wouldn't put the whole $5000 back into the lease. If anything, I would only put $2-$3k down and ask the dealer to write you a check for the balance of the $5k.

At $139/month ($5k/36 months), you stand to lose quite a bit of down payment if you get out of the lease early. It's quite common to end a lease 3 months early if you see something you like.

Ever lease before? What's the negotiated price?[/QUOTE]

Here’s the negotiated price and I plan to buy the car or trade in for another Acura at the end of the lease term.

That negotiated price doesn't look horrible (12% off MSRP!). Looks like you dropped the trade-in equity to $2500, assuming they write you a $2500 check to put in pocket.
Some states allow you to drop your tax burden on the new car based on the valuation of the trade-in. Check with your state and dealer to make sure you get your tax credit if not listed in your quote.

I would probably do the deal assuming they don't sneak in any additional tricks like window etching, etc.

thanks for the reply. I thought was a good deal. Only have to decide about the money up front trade in my old Honda CR-V 2010 (no air bag a/c works on and off) or come with $5000.00 cash. My friend will also buy the CRV for 5K as is which will give me the cash. They dropped trade in value to $2500 because of no airbag.This lease is also out of state in an adjacent bordering state. They are not sneaking anything else in, I turn down all added options.
