I am also thinking of getting the base MDX. I have a BMW lease expiring on July 31st.
 
The financing and incentive are exclusive of each other. I do believe taking the financing for 36 months at 0.9% is a better deal for me. That's as close to free money as you are going to get. My loan figures would come out to only $300 or so in interest over the 3 years.
 
 The only problem for me is that I would have to make a deal a month early, by June 30th, since that is the last day both incentives are still in play. Acura will probably renew the incentives, but I wouldn't take the chance of betting on it.
 
With all those 18 mpg MDX's piling up, I wouldn't be surprised that with a little patience, one can find some dealers who will offer you close to the incentive AND the special financing. Don't forget the added pressure of the 2009 MDX's coming out soon.
 
I live in a golf cart community so I can use the cart for visits to the local supermarket, bank and post office. I would use the MDX pretty much exclusively for highway driving, so I would expect to achieve close to 21 mpg which isn't bad. I will be relying on my portable Garmin GPS nav. system to alert me of highway traffic problems and give me alternate routes.
 
This may be the best buyer's market we will ever see for SUV's. Sooner or later the Fed will start raising interest rates again and oil prices will correct sending gas prices back below $4. Of course, I don't know for sure, but it sounds likely.

We have been dealing with two Acura dealers for the past two weeks in trying to get the best possible deal. We were thinking about leasing but we drive 18-20K per year. We started thinking about buying and this is the current offer that's on the table.
 
Base model MDX with side boards
Negotiated price $36,100
$1400 out of pocket
2.9% financing
$680 per month for 60 months.
 
Deal or no deal?

Does the $36,100 include extra fees like destination, doc fee, etc, and do the two dealers seem to have a lot of stock on hand? The $36,100 seems like a good deal with the special financing, but I just wonder if either dealer would go any lower before signing on the line.
 
As for the rebates, I am not going to buy until after June 30/July 7, so I guess I'll have to press my luck about Acura renewing the incentives/financing respectively after they expire. I can't imagine they would expect the MDX's to move in July/August just by themselves though but I guess we'll see.
 
Good luck! I like the steel blue myself, looks very sharp in person.

Great Deal... by nice_whips

MDX tech, power liftgate, wheel locks, dealer installed dual headrest DVD. I chose the $2,000 cash back instead of 2.9% financing. $40,050 out the door. If you choose the 2.9% financing (or 0.9% if you finance over 36 months) just add $2,000. The dealership was fantastic to deal with. Negotiated the deal over the phone and spent 15 minutes at the dealer signing the paperwork. Would absolutely recommend Acura of Wayne NJ. I spoke with Michael.

nice_whips,
The invoice price for MDX tech model is $40200 inc dest roughly. The power liftgate, wheel locks and dealer installed dual dVD must have cost you another $1000. Even with a 2K cash back, how did you get this for $40050 out of the door when the tax + registration + doc fee is like 3K in NJ.

nrb856, that sounds like a great deal. Does it include license and registration too? Please share with me the name of the dealer and sales person who you worked with.

When to introduce a trade in? by dakineguy
May 26, 2008 (8:38 pm)

I've been talking with several dealers about the purchase price for a new 2008 MDX Tech/Entertainment. At what point during the conversation should I tell them that the deal is contingent upon them taking my Ford SUV as a trade-in? Any suggestions in how to handle the question "are you trading in a car?". So far, I just say that I haven't decided upon a trade-in.
 
Thanks!

My understanding is that you introduce the trade-in after you have the set price on the new car, otherwise it gives them too many variables to trick you so to speak. Edmunds has a good article about buying a new car that explains this process.
