I am shopping for an MDX/Sport. We had the worst car buying experience in Acura of Bellevue. My wife and I came in, I identified her as the customer, and the associate acted as if he was doing us a favor. He walked us to the parking lot, didn't hold the door, stood in front of the car and said "There." Things went rapidly downhill. By the time I decided to try and see whether the price was decent, in spite of the lousy attitude he had, he came back with $2200 over invoice firm. My wife simply said "Let's go to Lexus", and we walked back through the showroom and out without anyone stopping us.
 
The kicker, I tried to see what the Costco buying program might be able to get and they referred me to...Acura of Bellevue. Of course we never got a response to the email I sent the sales manager describing the poor experience we had. I emailed Costco and told them as well.
 
This weekend, friends of ours told us that they only service their car in Bellevue, they never buy there.
Corworkers confirmed that the sales staff and sales management is mostly miss, with an occasional hit.
 
We have an appointment to see Acura of Seattle Wednesday and hopefully purchase the vehicle. At least on the phone, they were pleasant. Hoping to get a Sport package at $800 over invoice with some DIO on top of that.

Well, this has been my experience with quite a few Acura dealerships.
 
Actually many of them will treat you very well until the slightest mention of a discount comes up, and then they will treat you like you are some bum.
 
If we buy the MDX I plan on taking quotes from dealers within 300 miles and not even dealing with regular sales staff. 2%-3% over invoice on any car that's been on the market for over a year is a fair price unless there simply isn't enough supply.

Looking at getting an MDX. From all i can tell, the tech package is included within the sports package. Is this correct?

MDX Tech - Northeast Florida by ratrace26

Picked up my Blue Tech (on 7/23) for 40K including destination. Actually made the deal on 6/30/07 (end of month and quarter). Blue was my first choice and black second. Was set to pick up a black tech but then there is the small issue of the active head restraint redesign on all MDX's made June & later. The black was built in May. So the dealer showed me they had a black and a blue (both taupe)coming in mid-July. I put down a few bucks to hold the car - and wound up with my #1 color / interior choice. During the wait, Honda added the 4.99 % for 60 months deal - which beat my best rate by 1%. Pretty damn good dealer experience overall.
Man - what a great ride. Still "learning" all the features. Getting the homelink to work was a little funky - had to press learn on my garage opener unit (not the remote) cause of the rolling code. Anyway - fight for a good deal.

Andy,
 
With the end of the month here and the '08s on the way, push until you get to at least $300 over invoice. You should be able to get it lower than that with the $1500 dealer hold back from Acura.

It is not a clear coat. But it is a thin layer of clear shield in the front of the hood to resists any dent. You can actually touch and see it. They said it is life time warranty with Acura. My wife car is really beat up in the front, so we decided to have it and put them in the payment for low APR. Of course, it is cheaper if you bought them not from the dealers. The roof rail they charge me is $380, but online sell for $170 w/o shipping and i need to install them.

My 1st post here so here goes nothing....Thought I'd share my experience/price with South Bay Acura. 1st off, working with Jerry Ede was well worth the trouble of driving out 50 miles, even when I had 4 other dealerships within 15 miles of my home....standup guy and his wife is great too!!! The whole negotiation was done via email.
 
The price: 07 MDX Nimbus Gray/Taupe Tech/Ent. No frills, no dealer added accessories: $40,400 + $670 destination.

Hi,
 
anyone know where I can get a good deal in Dallas for a Tech/Ent MDX? I'm willing to travel to Austin, or Houston for a good deal.
