Spoke to dealer who quoted me residual value of 64% and MF of .00206 for a Honda HR-V LX AWD on a 36 month/12k per year lease. Quoting me a sales price at MSRP (29,585). I got the RV and MF from LH and they match up. I’ve contacted 2 dealers so far and want to know if the market for these cars is at MSRP with no play.
Do I need a broker to cut thru the red tape and get a good deal or is this the reality for the here and now? Serious buyer.
You either need to put in the work and contact a lot more than two dealers, or use a broker. I would imagine a Camry could be had for under msrp but no idea on the Hondas. Either way, there are a lot of #s that go into leasing, so make sure you are educated enough on them to formulate a solid deal.
This and… have you driven an HR-V? I am usually the last person to say that a car is underpowered, but even Consumer Reports (not usually a publication that cares much about acceleration) called it “dreadfully slow.”
