2012 Honda Lease Rates – April 2012

Honda lease rates carry over from March. There is dealer cash available for the Accord, Civic and CrossTour right now, so if you are shopping for either one of these models, you are in luck. Remember that “dealer cash” is not the same thing as “customer cash”. Customer cash is for you, the customer. Dealer cash is for the dealer, which they are not required to give you in it’s entirety. Generally, dealers will give you a good chunk of it in order to make a sale. That doesn’t exactly mean that you can’t get the whole thing, though. It never hurts to ask.

Looking below, you will notice an estimate for the Accord Sedan SE. Personally, I think you can do better than that because my calculations do not include the $1250 dealer cash that’s available. Hypothetically, I see being able to stay at this monthly payment but with a $0 drive-off instead of paying inception fees upfront.


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.

  1. 2012 Accord SE (Seadan w/ Leather)

    36 month, 15k/year lease (5.6% tax rate):

    $237/month – dealer pays first month’s payment, so 35 payments total

    $320 due at signing – $0 downpayment, $0 due at signing except for TTL and dealer fee
    ($145 dealer fee plus $175 title/plates/taxes)

    Honda has an awesome lease program – no disposition fee, gap coverage and $1500 damage waiver…

    This deal is sitting at the dealership waiting for me. Compares almost exact to WeymouthHonda.com which always has disclosed rates, prices, etc and a very nice online lease calculator.

  2. WeymouthHonda is awesome for posting that information online. Its dealerships like those that I really find refreshing to see. Honda/Acura has fantastic lease programs, highly recommended for folks new in the auto leasing world. I think your deal was excellent btw Jon. Congrats!
