I'm gonna check the website out. . .
uhh....try somewhere in the high-400's for a lease @ 39 mos/12-15k miles-per-year. TSX is $6k cheaper and it's in the high-300's, or at least it was over the summer when i asked. that's pre-negotiation, of course, but i'd bet that the best lease deals that people have been getting aren't any lower than mid-4's (TL) or mid-3's (TSX) respectively. if you put a crapload of money down you could get it cheaper, but the $$ you put down up front is pretty much gone forever....not the best choice when leasing, as i understand it (better to have as minimal up-front cost as possible).
honda/acura lease deals tend to be among the better ones out there, though - just for craps and giggles i checked into leasing a G35 coupe and then later a vw GTI 20AE and discovered that lease rates were only about $20-30 per mo. less than financing the car for 60 mos....the lease rates were just awful.
