2010 Acura TSX, TL Lease Rates – December 2009

logo_acuraMy Take: For those who missed out on the TSX V6’s $1500, I’m sorry to say, it’s gone. Expect the payments to jump over $40 per month at this point. The $1500 rebate for the V6 has been extended until January 4th!!!! Get on it!!!! This is probably one of the best deals around. I have driven the V6 and I have to say, it is far superior to the 4cyl. The lease rates for the TL and TSX remain unchanged from November and will run through the remainder of the year (and probably a few days into the New Year). Word of caution, Acura money factors do vary from region to region, so if you are getting the crappy 0.00201 MF, that’s pretty much all you are going to get. When in doubt, always crosscheck with other dealers to make sure you are getting the right MF.

One last note I’d like to point out for those who wonder why cars with Tech packages have a lower residual value. Based on my conversation with my Acura dealer, cars with Navi/Tech packages do not hold value well in the long run. The Navi, for example, costs about $2000 in a new car, but it’s only worth no more $300 after three years when appraised as a trade-in or in auction. Tech, Navi, RES packages are really meant for folks who keep their cars and don’t mind the depreciation because they don’t plan to sell the car or return it. General rule of thumb, if you want to save money, lease base models and get a portable Navi. They are dirt cheap anyway and some, like the Garmin Nuvi 755 (referral), come with FREE lifetime traffic subscription. I think Costco has the 755 for $199 (plus tax) right now, which is slightly cheaper than from Amazon.
