Here is a link – got it as close as I could.
Edited to accurately reflect 12k miles (typo).
I signed this exact deal (actually $11/mo less) just yesterday.
Yes, I got that exact deal, though I did add tire and wheel protection (not in this quote) b/c I knew we’d curb the rims… which we did in the first week of driving the car - TWICE!
November was a great month to get this car. Stamford CT Acura actually offered to sweeten the deal by $1,000 less down, but I was already done in my mind… the grind was too much time out of my work week. I bought from Rick Clark at Devan Acura of Norwalk CT. Hope this helps. If you go to Stamford Acura, ask for Sal and reference this deal (which he should remember as I sent him the Leasehackr link). — Ken
This is a fairly good deal considering it’s a Type-S, the suspension is very nice! Wish I could replicate it best offer I got was $660 a month for a 0 down and 1st payment due at signing after rebates and incentives.
Thank you! I imagine that dealer cash is what is given to the dealer as an incentive to sell the vehicle? So consumers get the rebates directly from Acura and dealer cash can be used to shave down capital cost making the lease deal more enticing correct? Sorry I am new here. I know that Its best not to put any cash down on the lease but I don’t getting a sub $600 a month payment without putting cash down means capital cost should be sub $50,000 which is $27000 off a Type-S ZDX which is insane! Am I missing something?
Theres $11500 in customer facing incentives, $8500-9500 dealer cash and then whatever discount on top of that.
Also, 27 months is the best program on these currently.
After driving the zdx back to back with the lyriq and the blazer, I’m a big fan. Much prefer how it drives compared to both of those. Seats are way more comfortable.
The interior in photos leaves a bit to be desired, but i feel like it is much nicer in person.
I found the zdx to ride much better (especially the type s with the air suspension). Seats are more comfortable in the zdx. Zdx feels overall more taught and sporty.
Interior on the zdx is a bit more simple in design, but everything is laid out really well. When i looked at photos of the zdx interior, i wasn’t all that interested. It feels much nicer/looks much nicer in person.
The infotainment screen feels a bit more dated. Bezel is too large on it. They could have done a much better job there.
The lyriq interior looks fancier, but more piano black which doesnt age well. The big one piece screen is nice, but you get the exact same thing in the blazer.
Exterior is definitely more unique with the lyriq, but that’s going to be very personal with which you prefer.
Congrats and thanks for your thoughts. I test drove a ZDX A-spec today since that was the readily available demo model but would be interested in a Type S for the surround view.
Dealer says the cars are moving rather slowly–they maybe move 2 a month. I liked the drive and it is powerful enough for most people’s needs.
It’s on my list, looking at a few other vehicles too but not needing to do anything until the spring anyway.
