Now that your lease is almost up, you may be wondering what's next. It's a good idea to start thinking about your lease-end choices, especially if you have 6 months or less remaining in your lease. With a Honda Leadership Lease™ or Acura Luxury Lease™, you generally have three options: Read more about your options below.

Option 1: Return your vehicle and lease a new one.
This option is convenient, easy, and best of all, you get to drive off in a brand new Honda or Acura! Your Acura or Honda automobile dealer will be happy to show you the latest models and discuss your options.

You will need to schedule a free vehicle inspection during the last two months of your lease. Through our Leadership Leasing Loyalty™ program, we may be able to waive the security deposit when you lease another vehicle through us. You will be responsible for any outstanding payments, excess wear and use, excessive mileage, and any other end of term obligations specified in your lease agreement. Visit the Planning section of this web site to learn more about our lease programs.

Option 3: Purchase your leased vehicle.
Buying your leased Acura or Honda is a great way to continue benefiting from its reliability, performance, and high resale value. If you decide to buy your vehicle, there is no need to have it inspected, since there are no excess wear and use or excess mileage charges to worry about.

To find out your purchase amount, you can get a payoff quote 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through our online Account Access or by calling our Express Payoff system at 1-800-708-6555.

Option 4: Extend your lease.
If you're interested in keeping your leased vehicle a little longer, or you just want to wait for a new Honda or Acura to come in, well consider extending your current lease. You can, in most cases, extend your lease for one or more months at the same monthly payment. Your Customer Service Representative can provide details about extending a lease.
