August 2008 Lease Rate for 08 Acura RDX

My Take: Word has it that AHFC is offering $2500 rebate on their RDX leases now. Not a bad time to jump into an RDX right about now. Even Edmund’s TMV is showing at least $1000 under invoice sale prices. Personally I would shoot for invoice minus the $2500 rebate. That would make for a sweet deal. I’ll be looking at the base RDX since it holds a higher residual value than the Tech. As always, if you need more “personalized” help with your numbers, shoot me an email at: g@ridewithg.com.

• RDX (w/o Tech)
• MSRP $31,455 ($33,955 - $2500)
• Invoice $28,765 ($31,265 - $2500)
• Standard inception fees + tax
• Lease rate in BOLD

36mo Payment: $416 at invoice, $495 at MSRP

Remember, if you end up paying around $31455, the dealer pretty much leased you the car without a discount on their end. Always get the dealer to pitch in some discounts because rebates are not from the dealer, they are from the manufacturer. You want to get a little love from both parties here. Dealers may represent the manufacturer, but they are independently owned and operated. TMV is showing around $29,422 in Southern California.
