The usual drop in residual/money factor here. Acura still has lease cash of $1500 available on the TL. $2000 on the RL. I didn’t see anything on the TSX, so I don’t think I would lease one of those right now. Going back to the TL, the lease still looks very good. TrueCar indicates a 11% off MSRP discount without incentives. But they also have a disclaimer saying that Acura dealers may not honor their “best price” quote. What I think will happen is this: Dealers will honor a sale price around that ballpark, but they will not give you the $1500 cash that’s available on that car. In order words, 11%-12% off MSRP with the incentive sounds about right.
Here is a sample calculation based on TrueCar’s Southern California sale price and do not include local taxes. Please note that your dealer calculations may vary due to local fees/taxes.
