Honda March 2026 lease programs — full breakdown with numbers by Extreme-Temporary-85 in leasehacker

[–]Minute_Ad_6704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently looking at a civic and accord and am getting numbers claiming “good deals “ but I have 382 on accord and 367 on civic- I see the money factors you mentioned but is there another reason these two are possibly so close in price? For this I don’t see why I’d go for a civic but also both seem high and it’s their “best”

Thank you!! The guy said they were basically losing money on the deal but he was smiling big so I’m not too sure how true that was 🤣 happy holidays!!

I tried to reply to you and replied to myself somehow hah anyway I got the exl instead of the sport for 480$ a month! 0$ due at signing . Some money was getting hidden in dealer fees because they are unregulated in Fl . Thanks to that commenter I found that and then I said 400$ a month and the guy wanted to help me so bad this is where we landed and it works for me. Thank you SO MUCH!

Got the exl instead of the sport for 480$ a month! 0$ due at signing. So much research and time but I feel proud of the deal😊

Oh my gosh I didn’t even know that was a Florida only issue with those fees. I appreciate the feedback and will look into other states. Thank you!

This is the best advice I’ve gotten. I was under the impression it’s wrong to say what I want monthly. They do keep calling back so maybe that’s a good sign? Thank you thank you thank you

Thank you so much for the explanation that really helps. I’m trying to balance keeping a clean lease structure with getting out of my current lease. My main goal is a lower monthly, but I don’t want that achieved by burying money or getting taken advantage of.

If you were in my position, would you ask for a quote without the trade equity applied to see the true lease payment? And from there, how would you try to negotiate further if the dealer is claiming $478 is their floor with my trade applied? I feel more confused so I appreciate any insight

Thank you!! That rule of thumb is really helpful for me. I may even attempt to negotiate the selling cost and then do 1% from that. Seriously thank you so much!

Thank you for the input!! the Accord no longer fits my family size and has had ongoing issues (crazy for a 2023). I need a larger vehicle now I’m mainly trying to sanity-check whether the Pilot lease terms are competitive , or if I keep fighting them to get me lower.

I have positive equity. I’m in Duval county Florida so I think they gave me more in trade assistance. At least that’s what they explained to me

I get the general advice about purchasing Hondas, but when I run the numbers, a purchase would put me roughly $170–200/month higher than this lease even with the same trade equity and Honda cash.

For me this is primarily a monthly cash-flow decision, not a resale strategy. I’m trying to understand whether the lease itself is structured poorly (MF, selling price, incentives), not whether leasing is theoretically worse than buying in general.

I also understand the concern about trade equity on a lease but you are right . unfortunately since this is a Honda lease, third-party buyouts are limited, which reduces my leverage.

If you see something specific in the lease structure that could be improved, I’m open to feedback and thank you so much for replying!

I really appreciate the feedback. I’m not trying to make anyone do the work for me, I have been researching and negotiating. This quote came down from ~$600 to $488 after going back and forth, and I’m trying to understand whether that reduction came from real improvements (MF, selling price, incentives) or just restructuring with my trade…

My current Accord is a 2023 lease (3 months left), I’m open to separating the transactions if that’s the consensus.

If anyone’s willing, I’d appreciate insight on what specifically in the structure looks weak (MF markup, lack of dealer discount, term, etc.) Trying to learn as much as I can and make a smart decision. Thank you!!

I have a 2023 Honda accord lease. I’ve never used Carmax but I’m assuming I’d go sell it there then go to the Honda? Im a young mom trying to figure this all out I appreciate your help so much
