$41,682: is invoice w/o destination charge
+ $715: Destination Charge
= $42397: is invoice price
 
Dealer holdback... is between dealers and manufacture.... (for acura it is 3% of MSRP)
Most of the time... dealers don't want to discuss with you about that...(they have to pay rent, electric, loan interest, etc… ) unless they are so desperate to move the car out of their lots...
 
* They can sell you at (or below) invoice and make money on higher doc fee, extended warranty, finance, accessories…

Getting quotes from area dealers. Best so far is $40,799. Possible accessories include sport running boards ($618 installed) and body moldings ($249 installed). Also trying to get Bernardi pricing on AcuraCare 6/100/no deductible $1055. Anyone in central Texas know of or have gotten better deals?

Hi Kurt,
 
The quote I got was from Open Road Acura of East Brunswick. It was an email quote, so but I can't guarantee that they will honor it when it I actually get there, but I'll let you know.

Hey Bugati,
 
Thanks for your input. I guess they are quoting me an invoice price basically. Should I be satisfied with that or do you think there is room to negotiate? I know they can always try to manipulate document fees, etc., so I figure it's best to get the lowest sale price first?
 
Thanks

hello boys and girls --
 
been quoted a price of 46,055 (including destination) for sport/ent with the following accessories installed: body side moldings, roof rails and sport running boards. dealers are telling me that the color combo that i want - aspen white/parchment is a hard find. the price quoted was for a formal black/ebony. how's this deal look to you guys?
 
thanks all for your input

1. Price: $46,055 with body side moldings, roof rails and sport running boards...=> probably just a so so deal.
 
2. Sport model:
     Dealers have very few sport model (b/c Acura doesn't make them a lot ?... or b/c not a lot people buy it ?.. or both..?.)...
     => Supply is limited… so that probably explains for… “hard to find”
 
3. NJ Luxury tax:
[Unconfirmed Info] I read from somewhere… someone said that.... for NJ… when buying a car... if the purchase price is over 45K.... you have to pay extra luxury tax?
 
If so... purchase accessories separate…to save some $ from the lux tax…
 
You should check with the dealer?

bugati,
 
thanks for the feedback. i wasn't jumping out and down when i got this price quoted to me either. i was shooting for 45,300. invoice on the sport/ent being 44,302, i factored in 1000 for the accessories. if i work the dealer i'm guessing i can get them to drop it down a couple hundred to get more in line with the price i want to pay. but again, the color combo might be the deal breaker.
 
thanks again for your input

History: Previous generation MDX were hot cakes... dealers sold them at full MSRP for several years...
 
Present: 2008 is the second year model of the new generation... => invoice price.... I think is a pretty good deal....
 
As of 02/12/2008... Acura doesn't have any rebate or incentive for MDX....
 
“room to negotiate more” ... It means you are trying to get into the dealer’s "holdback kingdom"… … I don’t think it will be easy… but if you have time … why not give it a try… they may give you some…. to help them clear the lot… (Note: Acura January sale is down about 14%)
 
To avoid inflated doc fee and mystery fees => ask for the OTD quote

Well as of this morning I have gotten 2 emails and a phone call from the dealers wanting my dollars but at 42,500 it is still too much I told one to throw in the extras I was looking for such as sport running boards and side moldings,what the hey they just bolt on and stick on how hard can it be?
One says at 42,500 that's the price the other one says we'll see and the other says come on in.
 Now I'm enjoying the action I am creating rather than haggle to no end every week it seems the price is coming down in our favor.
 
People be aware that the side moldings only cost 120 dollars at the most and the running boards 418 I saw on Ebay the dealers are making their money back by selling this to you at inflated cost.
