Possibly a cap reduction amount. When leasing, I usually ask for no
cap reduction and pay a slightly higher monthly rent instead. After
all, one of the purposes of a lease is to conserve cash.
That is, if the leasing company goes for it. Some of the "package"
leases from Honda may not be adjustable that way.

yeah, I plan to just pay the lease fees up front. I mean, say I pay lease
fees and put 2k down, and in a month I total the car.. the gap insurance
will cover the car, but I wont' see my 2 grand back. doesn't make much sense
to put down any more than you actually have to.

The cap reduction cost is their way of getting the lease payment to
be lower. If you're going to put out a lot of cash, it makes more
sense to purchase the car...
