2012 Honda Accord SE (leather seats AT alloy wheels) $175 mo $1700 down 12k miles 36 mo

Quote from albertw : SD if u can get the 36 months to around $7200-$7300. my car the 2011 Honda Accord LX-P in 2010 Dec. grand total is $5600 but 30 months lease with LX-P not SE As I said before make the dealer change the Acquisition Fee into the Gross Capitalized Cost which make the Purchase option at end of lease increase $14,574 + $595.00. If u don't want to keep the car at the end of the lease than u should not care how much the Purchase option is right?

As I understand it - the acquisition fee cannot be added in later - it is either paid upfront OR rolled into the monthly payments..

FYI - my total, out the door price, if I choose the 36 month lease, and pay all at once, is about $7000 which breaks down to about ~$192 a month (with zero down) - that is SUPER slick IMHO

or, ~$154/mo for 36 months using the same $1700 down that I would have spent..

instead of the still really slick $175 a month with $1700 down...

I wish to have 7k up front I would have bought a used 2006,07 Camry or Accord if I were U.

Nope...still think OP's choice is better and not having to deal with someone else's sloppy seconds.

Its a bet - one of us is betting on red and the other on black...

If your used car has any problem, without a warranty, add another X amount of dollars on it..

Whereas my car - any problem, its got a full warranty...

Now - if your car has ZERO problems for 3 years - YOU WIN --

If your car has ANY problems -- my scenario wins..

Hey guys, does anyone have tips finding lease deals? Are you better off searching the web or looking through your local newspapers? Is there a certain time of the year/month that's the best to look?

Thanks.

Except at the start of year 4, one of you has a car and the other doesn't...

an 8/9 year old car....

Yeah I like new car too. My lease end July next year, and I may lease another one if I find an SD

Quote from cuoreesitante : Doesn't make it any less slick of a deal. Then your opinion doesnt really matter does it, since we ARE talking about a lease deal here. The answer is always going to be yes lol.

"lease" not mentioned in subject title when originally posted.

Yes because the "36 months" part could mean you are financing it for 36 months...

Its a real wonder how you have 100+ posts and no rep points.

The Civic I bought was financed for 60 months, but they also offered less time like 24 or 36 months. I visited this post thinking this may indeed be a good deal to buy (finance) instead of leasing.

I guess I can kind of see how its confusing - either way, its for a lease -- and by the way, you now have rep points -
