Replying to: whsu (Jul 08, 2008 10:33 pm) I also brought my MDX from Raquel at Oakland Acura in Northern CA last weekend. My cash price was $2,700 below invoice and Honda Special Financing price was $1,200 below invoice.   I took the Special Financing at 0.9% for 36 months and keep my money in my Money Market earning 3%. The saving in interest over 36 months is approximately $3,000.

Replying to: chandra0102 (Jul 08, 2008 8:07 pm) Yes, $2,500 below invoice. If you are going to offer $38,000, do it on a tech model, not a base one! Look at the post below yours: base model for $34,000.   Forget sites like costco, etc. Just take the invoice and subtract the rebate and go from there. You can buy your extended warranty from any Acura dealer, there are 2 dealers selling those online for cheaper, buy it from one of them (I forget their websites). I doubt your dealer will match their cost.

Replying to: chandra0102 (Jul 08, 2008 8:07 pm) Listen to hodog16's advice. It all makes sense. The economy stinks (count your blessings that you are doing well), gas prices are very high, and auto sales, especially SUVs and trucks, are at the worst levels in decades. I believe that dealers of every brand would gladly unload every truck/SUV in their inventories for their rock bottom, below invoice price - no profit - and feel happy that they dodged financial ruin. Sales people still want to make commissions if at all possible, but dealership owners just want to manage their way through the current economic mess and survive. Take a look on-line at your local dealership's inventories. Local dealers in (financially healthy) northern VA have 100 - 250 MDX's on their lots, and they are doing better than domestic makers. It is THAT bad out there right now.   I just bought a 2008 MDX Entertainment and Tech package, $46,610 MSRP, $42,398 invoice, for $39,599 with no negotiating. That was the price the internet sales manager offered. I probably could have driven the price $500-$,1000 lower but didn't want to because the guy was so pleasant to deal with. BTW, Radley Acura in Arlington, VA. Replies to this message: olgaroza (Jul 11, 2008 7:31 pm) dishwash42 (Jul 12, 2008 5:32 pm) vavavoom (Jul 12, 2008 7:33 pm)

Replying to: chandra0102 (Jul 08, 2008 5:25 pm) Well, had a gruelling 2 hour session at my local Acura dealer last night. Finally agreed upon a price of 35,500 for the base model in white color that I wanted, but including an extra power train warranty of 7Yr/70,000 miles which was my sticking point. So, I have now the basic 4 yr/50,000 miles B-to-B warranty, plus 7Yr/70,000 miles power train. I don't know whether or not I got the best deal possible, but it seemed pretty good considering my needs. I did miss out on the 0.9% financing from Acura which had expired on 7/5, but I did go for the 1.9% for 3 years.   Now I have a need of a good quality car cover for my new MDX for outdoor use since the car will be outside until about Nov, when I make space for it in the garage. Any ideas of a source or brand?   Thanks for everyone's helpful ideas and tips, etc.   Harish Chandra   Any ideas on some sources of good quality car covers for this model Replies to this message: akg4y (Jul 14, 2008 8:28 pm) vavavoom (Jul 15, 2008 2:07 pm) akg4y (Jul 15, 2008 6:39 pm) and 5 more... udpumpkin (Jul 16, 2008 6:36 am) mebuytoo (Jul 18, 2008 8:21 pm)

Replying to: lpsshopper (Jul 10, 2008 6:34 am) lpsshopper, what's the name of the sales person at Radley? I'm shopping for MDX w/Technology, and willing to make a trip from Rockville, MD.   Thanks Replies to this message: dishwash42 (Jul 12, 2008 5:32 pm) vavavoom (Jul 12, 2008 7:33 pm)

#6684 of 9208 Finally Purchased MDX Sport PTG by vavavoom Jul 12, 2008 (7:33 pm)
Replying to: olgaroza (Jul 11, 2008 7:31 pm) Final price $40,849 not including taxes etc. in MA. It was a moderate negotiation but dealership was willing to deal.

Replying to: whsu (Jul 08, 2008 10:33 pm) I'm looking at a 2008 MDX/Tech w/ Pwr Tailgate: MSRP $44,960. Can I assume that $40,000 would be a fair price in LI/NYC area? This would be for cash...no lease or financing.   ALSO, does anyone know..can the POWER tailgate also be operated MANUALLY?

Replying to: 90mercsable (Jul 13, 2008 9:03 am) I got a tech + PTG a month ago for roughly $38,450 last month prior to tax, title, fees, and that was before the dealer incentives went from $2,000 to $2,500. I think you can get them for $38k+ before tax, etc.   The power tailgate can be operated manually, I think if you open it manually it takes care of the rest. Should the mechanism fail it can be opened and closed manually I believe. Replies to this message: 90mercsable (Jul 13, 2008 10:57 am) sfbayer (Jul 17, 2008 2:42 pm)
#6687 of 9208 Re: Trying to make an offer for a 2008 MDX [hodog16] by 90mercsable Jul 13, 2008 (10:57 am)
Replying to: hodog16 (Jul 13, 2008 10:36 am) Thanks for the info, yes I see the info about the $2500 dealer incentive. My problem with the tailgate is, the height of my garage won't allow the tailgate to open fully up, the ceiling is very low. I don't want the POWER tailgate to crash into the garage door (when open), or auto garage door opener track (when door is closed). The dealer has a really old one in my color (non PTG), but quite a few recent deliveries (with the PTG) in my color (Steel Blue). Replies to this message: sfbayer (Jul 17, 2008 2:42 pm)
