MDX in Western PA by heywood1

Anyone have a recommendation for a dealer within 100 miles of Pittsburgh? Baierl Acura has about a dozen MDX's on the lot-- half of them '07s-- yet the salesman keeps telling me how great business has been, that he's not allowed to sell an
'07 MDX anywhere near invoice, blah, blah, blah....
 
Considering the recent noise regarding credit tightening and housing downturn, I should think invoice plus $500 is a reasonable offer for any remaining 2007 (I am flexible on color and trim level).
 
I can pay cash, but I'm sure I qualify for the low financing offers (extended through early October).
 
Thoughts?

I recently bought a Base MDX from Acura of Erie for about $300 over invoice. I moved to Erie, PA from PGH and when I started shopping for an MDX thought the PGH area dealers would be more competitive. None of them were and I tried them all through email contact. It was almost a Joke.
 
Dealership is very small, but they are easy to deal with and will get you what you want. I liked the Cherry with black interior; they found me one that was slated to be built and rerouted it to their dealership.
 
You also can try Park in Akron and Acura of Cleveland. I'm pretty sure I could have done better price wise there, but the Erie dealership is under 5 min from my home and was willing to get me the color combo I wanted.
 
Let me know if you have any questions about them.

Got the 2007 MDX for 36800 from Acura Boston. However I had to pay a document preparation fee of 295. I was told thats non negotiable. Is that true ?

Every dealer in the country will tell you that the doc fee is "Non-negotiable". I always respond: "OK, so lower the price of the car to cover it." They usually respond with nervous laughter...

Thats exactly what I did.
I had them lower the price of the car, after negotiating the price, to make up the "everyone gets charged this" document fee.

Thanks for the tip. I know exactly where they are there on Peach St. You did well at $300 over invoice for a Base MDX they didn't even have yet. I checked their inventory and they only have one in stock-- a (2007) Sport/Ent. with MSRP of nearly $51K, which is more than I want to spend, even at invoice. I'm looking for Base or Base w/Tech. I'll check Park & Cleveland dealerships for '07s. Baierl is closest to my home, and only gives service loaner cars if you bought your vehicle there. So I probably won't go to OH just to save a few hundred bucks. But I will for a thousand or two....

My opinion is that you shouldn't have to pay over invoice. Try to get it at least $200 to $300 below invoice and shop around. You could very well save money for a year's insurance for this car.

Checking the inventory in our area (Twin Cities, MN) I see that has dropped to the point where dealers may not be willing to deal like they might have during last month or two. As of today they are not showing any '08's in stock, and there are fewer and fewer '07's left on their lots. Depending on your area, it may make sense to wait until the '08's arrive, then with more inventory you may strike a better deal on an '07 as they become more anxious to clear the remaining inventory out.

2008 MDX Tech/Ent in Minnesota by newkidontheblo

2008 MDX's are here in Minnesota. I requested a quote through edmunds. So far White Bear Acura has been most responsive. Without haggling I have been given an internet price of $44795 or Tech/Entertainment package. This price includes the destination charge.
 
How good is this price? What are people paying in Minnesota and other areas.
 
Thanks

Has anyone bought the extended warranty for their MDX? I just bought an MDX w/ Sports & Entertainment pkg and they were offering me extended 7yr/100K for ~$1750. They say if I don't use it, they will return everything, but $50 after its expiration. I refused as I thought I could get a better deal from another place. Now, I'm second guessing my decision. Just curious if anyone bought the extended warranty and what they paid. Also, are there other companies who offer similar coverages at a lower price?
