'19 Honda CRV EX-L - Good Deal?

Hello Hackers,

This is the info I received at the Honda dealership for a CRV EX-L AWD. I live in Buffalo, NY.

MSRP: $32195
Sale Price: $30245
Residual: 54%
MF: .00105
Trade Payoff: $1305 (for 3 remaining payments on current Honda lease and 2K mileage overage)
Term: 39 month/ 15k miles
Tax: $1660 (not sure how they got this as sales tax is 8.75% where I live in NY)
Doc Fee: $75
Non Tax Fees: $247
Total Balance: $34227

Monthly Payment: $458 inc taxes
Drive off cost: $458 (first month payment)

This seems high to me. What do you think?

Not a good deal. Doesn’t mean 1% rule at a minimum. You’re looking at like 380/m if you remove the 3 months + overage.

Do dealers normally just eat the remaining payments? I didn’t think it should be added into the deal.

They don’t “eat” anything. The buyer does the “eating”. They’ll gladly roll any remaining payments into your new lease.

So what’s the best way to approach this deal with 3 remaining payments?

Go look for a 2018

Not many left in my area.

Wait three months.
