Hi,

I’m looking for a good lease deal on the new Mazda CX-90 Turbo S Premium Plus, and so far this is what I’ve got. The LH score is 5.5, but in order to get the same drive off as shown below I had to play with some numbers: CALCULATOR | LEASEHACKR

What do you guys think? Do you think there’s much room for negotiation in the current market? Thanks

Over $1000/mo to lease a mazda…

I know – things have changed a lot from just a few years ago. The alternative for me is the Acura MDX Advance, which would be about the same if not slightly higher, and I do like the CX-90 better.

You can get 2 cx-9 for that price

I wanted a cx-90 as an all weather take abuse vehicle but around ~$450 - not $1k lol

Well, given that I was leasing a 2019 CX-9 GT for $350/mo w/ $5K down, and even after adjusting for the significant price hike to the top-trim CX-90, things did change quite a lot.

8

The lowest trim has an MSRP barely below $40K, so you might not be too far off.

9

Whats changed is youre trying to lease a brand new model with crappy lease programs and youre trying to justify it as the entire market has shifted.

The market has shifted some, but thats only a tiny part of the problem here. Your vehicle selection as a lease candidate is 90% of the problem.

Yeah, I just can’t imagine that the CX-90 is going to lease well anytime soon…

I haven’t been following MDX threads, but is the Acura trim level you want realy the equivalent of $860 + $7K DAS???

11

I get your point, but I try lease vehicles that I’d either be willing to keep and continue to use reliably after the lease runs up or that I can sell without losing much to depreciation. It has been working for me so far, but I agree that this deal isn’t that attractive.

12

The best way to achieve that is not to lease something with no discount, no incentives, and a mediocre mf.

I was looking at the MDX a few months ago and it was close to that. The 2023 MSRP has actually increased ($3500 above the CX-90 actually), so I’m not sure what kind of deals are available right now.

15

What would be a good MF, assuming excellent credit?

16

Nothing now is a good MF, the CX-9s (Well maybe not the Turbo) was a super low 0.0001 a couple of months ago.

17

I’m not familiar w/ the MDX trim packages, but I can’t help but think that it might be worth revisiting the MDX based on this:

Jeeps still have decent programs this month with low incentivized MFs and some sweet discounts.

I expect them to get even better in May with how much Jeep sales have plummeted. I honestly might go for a 2nd Grand Cherokee next month to replace my Pacifica.

For $1000/mo+, one could get a really nice summit reserve gc

I’m currently trying to configure an MDX A-Spec ($61,745) at 8% off to lease at 36/10. Ready to trade our 2020 RDX with 3-4k in equity. No dealers biting yet.

Think you missed the point. In order for a lease to be a good candidate for putting in the work of negotiating a discount, it needs to have good programs, ie a good combination of RV, MF and incentives.

Trying to single out one of those variables will not lead you anywhere.

TLDR if you want to lease, look at vehicles with better programs. If you want a CX90, finance it.
