It seems you paid about $4,300 for insurance against some repairs, dings and environmental damage. I am sure the dealer considers this deal, with these three F&I products on the back end, a home run.
 
There is no way the prices charged by the dealer were $50 over cost. Really, $800 for ding protection and $870 for damage caused by the environement?
 
Hopefully, the extended service contract (it is not a warranty) was provided by Acura and not some third party.
 
Thankfully, all these "products" can be cancelled. The smart thing to do.

so as I understand, the MSRP on a 2012 MDX base is 43,815, plus the destination charge puts me at 44,710. If I offered 36,500 excluding ttl, and it's accepted, what I'm still confused about is, what would the ttl total? in CT, is it dfferent from everywhere else? I realize I pay tax per month (inculded in the monthly payment), but what about sales tax when I buy it? and title and license fees? could you answer with maybe an example using the 36,500? I SINCERELY appreciate it.

Hey thanks for the reply, I appreciate the feedback.
Any one with an opinion on a fair price for these packages?
I am going to back to the Acura finance department today and try to renegotiate these deals to something reasonable. If not then I think I'll just cancel everything and take my losses. They said at the time of purchase that these extended overages would be prorated if canceled, and I'm assuming it will be done so on a monthly basis but you never know with these car companies.

1. 2013 mdx base new, $37900+ttl ===> your offer is similar to mine. Mine maybe a few hundred less. But I think we can get down below $37k for 2013 base brand new. I know someone did it in Dec around $36k. You can flip a few pages and see that price.
 
2. I will not consider used car. Price is so similar to the 2013, why get a pre-own? Unless it's much less... in your case, price too similar, I'd rather get a new car.

Anyone know what price will 2014 MDX be? Will it stand very firm while 2013 modle has a lot of discount? 2014 has a nicer look but more importantly, it has more space, easier access to the 3rd row seats. but it didn't say larger leg room for 3rd row seats, just said more leg room for 2nd low seats. Also sounds like a safer car. Safty feature enhanced. If price is similar to 2013 with all these discount prices, 2014 is the way to go. Otherwise, 2013 is a great deal. Any suggestions?

2013 Acura MDX with Tech Package + Navigation + premium leather + tinted window + car mat $240 value for OTD $42,800.
 
I wish this dealer is in NJ. She did very well.

Is $35,500 (+ttl) a good price for a 2012 MDX base model (certified) with 5000 miles? Thanks! I appreciate the help.

TT&L varies based on state, municipality, etc. That's why reporting OTD pricing on this forum isn't very useful. Folks should quote Price + TT&L.
 
You can call your local DMV to get a good estimate. Quick google search produced:
 
CT DMV Fees: link
 
CT Vehicle Tax: link
 
I just glanced at them, but I'd say a couple hundred bucks for fees and 6.35% tax for around $39k OTD on a $36.5k sales price for CT.
