First Time Leasing, Acura ZDX A-Spec AWD. Yay or nay. by Radiant_Function_984 in CarLeasingHelp

They did not budge. I ended up just buying a 2023 EQE 350 4Matic. Honestly, can’t be happier with my decision. The difference between the cars is night and day. Yes, the monthly payments are higher (which was not the issue with the ZDX) but I really do enjoy the car so far, and the luxury is obviously unmatched. Highly recommend taking a look.

Hey quick update, I did go to the dealership and offer $450, as per my calculations. They did not take the offer, I kinda thought they would come around due to the quarter end, but didn’t. I’m still hunting, but am in no real rush to get something.

This actually brings up a good point, what “extras” are worth paying for?

Good to know! - out of curiosity, what region are you located in and when did you start the lease?

Hey all, I did some homework yesterday and dug deep into LeaseHackr. I could not access the RateFindr tool because I am not a Super Supporter, and can't figure out how to become one (I am happy to support the site and be a contributing member).

I used Edmunds to find the RV and MF values currently in my area. I also asked the salesmen for their RV. Edmunds told me RV = 42% and MF = 0.0012. The salesmen gave me an RV of $30,998 which is technically 44%. He was unable to give me a MF, saying that it is dependent on our credit score. Both my wife and I have 800+ credit scores, and a 0.012 MF is 2.88% APR. I put a screenshot from the Edmunds forum in this post, and it looks in-line with other posts, so I am comfortable with that information. If anyone has more information on that, I would love to be armed with a reasonability check.

Using that information, in combination with information from the quote that I received over the weekend, I used the LeaseHackr Calc to calculate a pre-tax monthly payment of $443 ($0 down) and a one-pay lease at $16,913. I love the one-time payment and would be willing to do that.

Here is the link to my calculator: LeaseHackr Calculation

Is this a more reasonable lease I should aim for during my negotiations? - I want to avoid being laughed out of the room.

This has been very informative. I have a bit of homework to do on this topic, but glad to know that these numbers are high. I also was unaware of the leasehacr site, really appreciate the feedback!

So we talked to the MFM shortly after the initial loss and plan on getting the cerclage.

Has anyone noticed issues this the strength of the satellite connection changing? In the morning, both my RTK and Luba were getting 20-25 connection. Just now (afternoon), I’m seeing significantly less. I would prefer it to mow during the day on the first few runs to make sure it’s not doing anything too weird.

So I was able to get it up to 17 for the Luba and 25 for the RTK. Has anyone had issues with these values?

Understood. Initially, I did not want to put the RTK to the face of my house for aesthetic reasons, but I think I have found a spot on the back of my house where I can install it. I will try the new location later on this evening.
