I have no idea what Acura is doing this month. With a drop in residual pretty much across the board (except for the MDX, which remains a mediocre lease this month), you would except Acura to drop the Money Factor to keep payments around the same as last month, right? Well, they do, but not for the RDX. Ironically, they decided to jack up the money factor instead. What the heck, right? Luckily, not all is lost. The TL lease looks improved, so at least we have that. The TSX doesn’t look half bad, but I would wait another month to see if it’s RWG rating breaks the 90+ range.
