Replying to: enforcer (Jan 16, 2009 11:24 pm) I can vouch for Pleasanton's professionalism and integrity, search my other posts ("deal gouged roof") for my non-sales interaction with them. Just curious about the extended warranty, is it more expensive to get it 4 years down the line as opposed to now? When I had my S40 and wanted to add another year to it just 2.5 years into the car, Volvo quoted me $1400 for that extra year which I'm sure wasn't as much initially. If you are interested in an extended warranty, Tim over at HondaAcuraWorld sells genuine Honda/Acura Warranties for much less than dealer and at least from its webpage, you can purchase it before you hit 6k on the odometer. http://www.hondacuraworld.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=AC- -MDX-EW-00&Category_Code=WARR Bernardi Warranty has it for bit cheaper than HondAcuraWorld but their website won't let those of us in CA purchase them for whatever reasons, but I read in other forums you can just call in and they'll do it over the phone. I was looking at 7 years 100k which comes to $1585 (Hondacuraworld), not bad, about a grand less than the dealership. I do plan on keep the car for a long time but after reading all the write-ups on extended warranties for high reliability brands such as Acura, I'm still not sure whether I should do this or get some new granite for my kitchen.....

Replying to: enforcer (Jan 16, 2009 11:24 pm) What do u think about Oakland Acura. I spoke to a lady name Raquel who says she can beat Edmunds recommended prices. I'm looking for an 09 tech and seems like the going price is 45K OTD.

Replying to: wai_ster (Jan 17, 2009 7:33 am) My tactic in getting my price was simply emailing several dealerships and saying that I had been reading in several forums people were getting 08 MDX techs for 35.5k and to see if they could do that price. 2 of my initial 4 said they could so I had that in writing and even though it didn't work out with those initial dealerships, I was still able to take that quote a month later to Pleasanton who then offerred me the 08 tech at $100 more and since they gave me $2000 more for my trade in than any other dealership (or private seller for that matter), I took it. If you really like Oakland for their service (and I really liked them but they didn't have new 08 techs when I was there last month), then email competitive Acuras with a price you want to pay, back it up with relatively verifiable claims (edmund forums, acuramdx.org forums, etc.) and when they say yes, bring that quote to Raquel for a chance to beat or meet. Good luck!

Just wanted to thank everyone who posts here.....this forum saved me a good bit of money w/ my 09 base. I probably could have saved another $500 if I had waited another couple weeks, since they are now offering the cash incentive....unfortunatley I couldn't wait. Submit your prices paid at realcartips.com Thanks again and Good Luck! |

Replying to: dltl (Jan 17, 2009 8:53 pm) Note that on the warranties, the $0 deductible warranty costs $100 more than the $100 deductible warranty. I can't figure out why anyone would want a $100 deductible warranty, as you are worse off if you use it two times. Make sure you call or e-mail Tim for the accurate prices. Mark

Test drove a '09 MDX and absolutely love it!! Of course, I sat down afterwards and got an initial quote of $48K w/ tech and entertainment package (includes TTL). No thanks!! Guess they don't realize how many of us educate ourselves on Edmund's. Looked online at a dealership in Sarasota that still has quite a few new '08 MDX's. Also noticed the $4000 cash to dealer incentive Edmund's has listed. With this incentive are you able to reduce the negotiated price another $4K? Also, if anyone has any experience w/ good deals in Florida please let me know. I'm willing to drive just about anywhere in FL or even GA to get a good deal.
