Just got off the phone with Springfield Acura and they quoted us $39,800 for a 2009 MDX Tech/Ent. Can you email us offline exactly who you were dealing with over at Springfield Acura? Our email address is doodles22 at comcast.net. If you do take delivery today, let us know how you made out. We would all love to know the details of your OTD price. Thanks!

ya, that 38.8 price +TTL is a little too good to be true, They might be assuming you install some accesories to make up the profit. Let us know if you pull it off. Thanks.

I think the saying is that is something seems too good to be true it probably is, and that was the case with this 2009 MDX w/ TECH + ENT I had agreed to for $38,799 at Springfield Acura in Springfield, NJ. When we arrived, we were told one of the Internet salespeople asked her mgr for a quote for the car with only TECH package, then relayed it to us as the price for TECH + ENT. I had the entire email conversation printed out, and the GM came to offer us the car for $39,778. Out of principle, I walked out of the dealership.
We called back the other low bidder on the car, DCH Montclair Acura (Verona, NJ), and said they had a deal for $39,153 which was their low bid -- then 20 minutes later received a call from the salesperson that her manager also thought he was quoting just the TECH package, rather than TECH + ENT, and they were unwilling to sell us at this price. I called the GM back directly, and told him that as we had found his dealer through the COSTCO auto program, I had assumed (albeit incorrectly) that his dealer would avoid playing games with me, and I would be calling COSTCO to tell them about this experience. He then re-offered me the car for $39,153, which I bought a couple of hours ago.
As for the accessories, I found another local dealer with an ebay store, and using that I was able to establish prices which I believed to be fair (about 40% off the dealer list). We wound up getting the cargo cover, cargo tray, running boards, all weather rubber mats, and luggage racks and crossbars. The installed price for all of these accessories was $1,425 -- this brought the car to $40,583.65.
With 8.625% New York sales tax (where I live), $199 NJ Dealer documentation fees, and some License fees, it came to $44,493.20. I financed it for 36 months at 0.9%, which comes out to $1253.60/month.
I hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions.

MDX 09 Base in Seattle Area by shinsfan

I am right now going back and forth between 4 Acura Dealers in WA for the 09 MDX Base. I have a quote for $36.5k + tax. Has anyone gotten a better deal?
 
Been reading the forums and folks are quoting getting as much as $3k below invoice.
 
I want to be at ~$35k + tax.

2009 MDX Technology Package by etomidate

We worked with Los Gatos Acura and had a wonderful experience. They played no games and matched the best price we got...which actually was from Serramonte Acura in SF. The cost was $38,283 + TTL in CA. Oakland, Pleasanton, Sunnyvale, Autowest Stevens Creek, Hopkins - all said they couldn't come close to the price. "We'd be taking a loss on the car." That is classic. Just be honest and say you can't sell for that low. Plain and simple. We are all educated buyers with some intelligence behind our actions...sales people sometimes can be such weirdo's.
 
However, I digress...our salesman was super great and it was the most pleasant experience I've ever had buying a car...as far as buying a car goes. I recommend this place for everyone. You can see my previous post from my other purchases from other years. Would never recommend anything unless I was 100% sure of the results.
 
Best of luck my friends...a fire sale is going on right now.

This was really helpful, thanks. For those who have financed recently, what are the standard fees? I am thinking about doing the 0.9% but don't want to get gouged on the fees.

Bought a 2008 MDX Sport w/PTG today in Boston area for $37.8K. Dealer has one left, but it is a demo. I was looking for a 2009 MDX w/Tech, but best price I was quoted was $39.5K.
 
I did all negotiations via email and saleperson was very good and honored the price with no hassles when we arrrived. My wife and I were out in approx 45 mins.

Amazingly we didn't have any fees to finance the vehicle, and we did not have to give them a dime to drive the car out of the lot. Of course it is subject to a credit check. I plan on paying this automatically every month from my ING checking account with an APR of 3.05%. In my opinion it does not make sense to put anything down, and arbing the difference between my post-tax interest income from this account and the 0.9% from Honda Finance lowers the price of this vehicle pretty nicely.
