My Take: New month, same lease rates. If you where waiting for the MDX payments to drop, you will have to wait a little bit longer. I think that the money factor still could use some reduction, so hopefully Honda will do themselves a favor and lower it so they can move some cars. There is $2000 in marketing support cash on the MDX however, so that should help ease the pain if you really need to get a new family hauler. Speaking of SUVs, some of you should have probably heard that Honda will be releasing the ZDX soon. Here’s a little excerp from Bloomberg.com and a pic from MotorTrend.com
“The V-6 engine ZDX, the first Acura designed by a woman, will be built at Honda’s Alliston, Ontario, plant where MDX is produced, Spencer said. The new Acura competes with Bayerische Motoren Werke AG’s BMW X6 crossover, introduced last year.
The model will be priced “in between MDX and the RL” sedan, he said. The 2009 MDX is priced from $40,990 while the top-end RL sedan sells for as much as $54,100, according to the company’s Web site. “
Are you excited? I certainly am. Major props to the lady that designed the ZDX. Not just because she did an excellent job, but also because I believe the percentage of female auto designers is like 0.2% or something of that nature.
