I am in oregon (Portland) area and the dealer is suggesting for 2019 MDX SH-AWD BASE. MSRP: $47295 Discount: $8468 Residual: $26485 Money Factor = 0.00225 Down payment=$2500 Monthly Payment = $409 Is the above a Really Good Deal, Okay Deal or Bad??? Thank YOU! :slight_smile:

Pretty sure there’s an $8500 direct to dealer rebate, so you’re essentially paying over sticker.

what do you suggest I negotiate to?

Tell them you want another $5k off [image] 2019 MDX lease help -- success! Ask the Hackrs MF is marked up. They can’t monkey with RV

They said they cannot change MF or RV. down payment is around $3000 with first month + $1000 Tax/Reg/Fees = $4000 Should I say, $1000 down out the door price? is that good? (I have never leased before and do plan to buy back at the end as well. Not sure if this is right, but I do drive low miles …

[image] subhrain: They said they cannot change MF They managed to mark it up, didn’t they? “Cannot” = “will not”

can you please help me as to how MF determines the monthly? I tried using the calculator, but I didnt have all the details.

Money factor is another way to express the interest rate used to calculate the portion of your lease payment that goes to finance charges. Base MF is set by the financial institution, and the dealer can then mark it up (within limits) for profit.

if they chose not to reduce the MF, can I ask them for a discount on the downpayment? Right now its something to the tune of $4000 (w/ taxes). May be I can say $1000 + 409/month for BASE MDX SH-AWD? If I can get that will that be a good deal?

I have no idea what constitutes a good deal on an Acura. Respectfully, though, this is your money so you should be in charge. I would take a step back and do some more research, and then go back and present the deal you are willing to make based on careful research and feedback from the good folks…

That’s buy rate for the mdx lol…
