My Take: The FX35’s 24-month lease should be avoided at all costs. The 36-month is adequate for most lesses, while the 48-month lease nets the lowest monthly payment (around $50 less per month than the 36-month). It may seem like a better deal, but I can almost guarantee you that you will need to spend some money on tire replacements at the end of a 48-month lease, so that’s something to think about. The EX35 still seems to have decent residuals despite being an 08 model. The money factor is practically non-existant so that makes for a decent lease. This isn’t the best deal of the year however, July/August’s deals on the EX were probably the best ones of the year. There is $500 cash and another $5000 dealer cash that’s available, which should help drive down the price of the car significantly. I don’t think you’ll get the whole $5000 dealer cash (they won’t even combine it with the 0% APR and 0.9% financing), but the $500 shouldn’t be too hard.
