Hi, I’m looking for some outside perspective on a lease deal I was shown and ultimately walked away from because it didn’t seem right to me; photo of the worksheet is below: https://postimg.cc/kBJMw2Z1 I don’t know if I entered in the details correctly in the LH calculator but here’s the link bel…

Very confusing deal sheet so probably smart to walk away. I am not sure where the $5750 in Cap Cost Reduction is coming from in the deal sheet. There appears to be no equity in your trade unless that is the source of the mystery CCR, but they should have been able to explain that. There is no sense …

I reworked your calculator using the basic numbers you provided. Here is how the deal looks without all the other BS fees and <a href="https://calculator.leasehackr.com?make=Acura&miles=10000&msrp=52650&sales_price=46729.09&months=36&mf=.00211&msd=0&dp=0&dealer_fee=999.00&acq_fee=595&disp_fee=0&taxed_inc=2250&untaxed_inc=0&rebate=0&resP=59&gov_fee=406.60&sales_tax=6.625&demo_mileage=0&memo=Acura%2BRDX%2BA-Spec%2BAWD&tradein=0&fin_sp=52650&fin_taxed_fee=0&fin_untaxed_fee=0&fin_term=60&fin_apr=0&fin_dp=0&fin_rebate=0&fin_ps_rebate=0&fin_tax=0&keep_term=60&exp_rv=0&service_fee=0&acqFee_check=true&totalLeaseTax_radio=true&bmw_demo_25=true&lease_result_mode=true&pretax_monPmt=532&lease_das=4056">addons if it truly is $529 a month with only TTL, fees and first month payment DAS, maybe it is not such a bad deal. You really need to understand if there is equity in your…

I mean this constructively. You were assessed as a low information shopper. Thankfully you went with your instinct and came here to ask. There’s a lot to dissect here, but for starters, with the rare exception of a manufacturer pull-ahead offer (think Volvo’s) or some unusual conquest incentive (…

Yeah, after looking over this worksheet in more detail; that $5,750 seems to be made up of the $2,250 rebate they’re giving me + my $3,500 deposit. Ok, Ty; I’ll try checking Marketplace and Signed to see what it shows. Yeah, I agree; might as well wait until my last lease payment before I really s…

Yeah, this looks a lot better excluding all those wacky fees and last 3 payments of my current lease that makes up that $3,565 number. Yeah, with TTL, required fees, and first month payment DAS; $529/mth doesn’t look bad. Courier Service: $28 Etch: $499 Wheel Locks: $177 Perma Plate: $995 Last 3 …

Yeah, I think I started looking for a new lease a bit too early but at least I have an idea of what they are offering for the RDX. I’ll just wait until my last 3 payments are done, and hopefully be able to find a better deal at that time. Ty.

Adding to everything else already said, this is a lot of coin for a car that’s been in production, almost unchanged, for 6-7 model years. If you’re dead set on the car, it’s probably a better buy. If you’re shopping for a deal in this class of car, I can’t imagine numbers for the new X3 and GLC are …

Agree with all the above, the only feedback I have is post a screenshot next time. What the hell was that hosting website lolll.

Lmao im glad i opened it at home :sweat_smile::joy:

Smartest thing you can do is learn how to put your own target payment/DAS together using spreadsheets or learn to use the tool here:
