Lease Your Next Acura View our Current Acura Lease Specials here! Leasing an Acura is one of the easiest and most affordable ways for drivers to enjoy the performance, features, style, and dependability that the current Acura lineup has to offer.

Below you will find some options that you can explore, or you may simply call us at any time to help answer your questions. DRIVE A NEW Acura MORE OFTEN: Now you don't have to wait nearly as long to get behind the wheel of a new Acura. When you lease, you have the flexibility to upgrade more often, meaning you can stay at the cutting edge of automotive technology, style and performance. LOW UP-FRONT AND MONTHLY PAYMENTS: That’s right, both your payment up front and every month could be less. So you get to drive a sleek, new Acura and still afford to show it off during a night out on the town. CHOICE OF FLEXIBLE LEASE TERMS With term choices from 24-60 months, you can control how much you pay monthly and how long your lease runs. Drive a new Acura more often with the 24-month lease, or pay less every month with terms up to 60 months. Choose a term that matches your lifestyle. MILEAGE FLEXIBILITY THANKS TO Acura LOYALTY ADVANTAGE PROGRAM: Don’t stress over every extra mile on your lease! Whether you are over or under your miles, the Acura Loyalty Advantage program allows you to live your life unrestricted. Plus, you can receive 1,000 additional miles just for leasing with Acura Financial Services.

New Acura vehicles are usually covered under a factory-limited warranty for the first 4 years/50,000 miles. ACCIDENT AND THEFT GUARANTEED ASSET PROTECTION (GAP) INSURANCE COVERAGE IS INCLUDED: Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) insurance is just one more level of security for your lease. In many cases, GAP pays the difference between what you owe on the vehicle and what your vehicle insurance covers if your Acura is stolen or deemed a total loss after an accident. $750 EXCESSIVE WEAR AND USE OR DAMAGE WAIVER INCLUDED: Acura Luxury Lease includes a $750 excessive wear or damage waiver. Loyal clients who purchase or lease their next Acura vehicle may qualify for an additional $750 waiver on the vehicle they are turning in and may be eligible to get their turn-in fee waived. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS ARE THE SAME AS STATE MINIMUMS: Acura Luxury Leases have insurance requirements that are consistent with state minimums. This may help lower your insurance payments and make leasing more affordable. YOU'VE GOT END OF LEASE OPTIONS: We’re all about the options. When your lease is up, you may extend it, purchase your current Acura, or slip behind the wheel of a brand-new Acura vehicle with a new lease. END OF LEASE PURCHASE PRICE GUARANTEE: No last-minute purchase-price surprises! If you make the choice to buy your Acura, the price you were quoted at the beginning of your lease is the price you will pay at the end of your lease. View our Current Acura Lease Specials here!

Resolutions to keep your car i n great shape all year long When the clock strikes midnight, it’s the official start of a new year, which means you have 12 months to fulfill your New Year’s resolutions. Your go-to resolutions might involve improving your physical health, making advances in your career or focusing on a new hobby. But the thing that keeps your life and plans running is your car. Why not resolve to keep it performing well all year long? Check-in consistently A resolution to keep your car in great shape requires consistent attention. One oil change, tire pressure check or walk-around will not be enough to fulfill your car care goals for the year. Instead, you have to make a plan to regularly check the health of your tires, the condition of your windshield wipers, the existence of paint scratches, spots or cracks and the strength of the bulbs in your car’s headlights, taillights, turn signals and cabin. Seek assistance from the experts The best maintenance guide you can use is your vehicle’s owner’s manual. It outlines everything you need to know about your car. It provides problem-solving tips and maintenance schedules designed to keep every facet of your vehicle in working order. Once you’ve reviewed the instructions in the manual, it’s probably a good time to get a second opinion. A maintenance check with a trained automotive professional will reveal the true health of your vehicle and uncover potential problems. A small fix now could save you from dealing with and paying for a huge problem in the future. Slow down Even if your vehicle boasts incredible fuel economy, your driving behaviors can negate your car’s efficiency. Speed demon tendencies and aggressive driving behaviors are unhealthy and potentially unsafe for you and others on the road, and can also cost you money. According to Natural Resources Canada, aggressive driving and speeding can increase your fuel consumption by as much as 35 percent. Declutter and shine It’s easy for your car to become a messy catchall of food trash, sports gear, mud, dirt and forgotten homework. But the clutter you carry is more than just an eyesore. An overstuffed trunk can impede your vehicle’s performance, and a cluttered cabin can damage your upholstery. To help protect your car’s performance and the look of your interior, it’s important to declutter and vacuum the interior regularly. Just as easily as the inside can get out of control, the exterior of your vehicle takes a beating every day. Your car’s paint is vulnerable to all weather from sunshine and rain to wind and snow, and its effects can scratch, chip or damage the paint. To protect your car’s exterior, wash and wax your car regularly. It’s especially important to thoroughly remove snow, ice and road salt from the undercarriage of your car to prevent corrosion. Make your car a priority when you make your New Year resolutions. By committing to a care and maintenance schedule, you’ll help improve your driving life throughout the year.
