Anyone have information on the June incentives? I'd also be interested in prices and dealer name for Tech or Tech/Ent for anyone in UT, NV, CA, CO, AZ, ID or WY. Chan74, would you be willing to share your dealer and contact info? $40,700 is a good deal by my estimation. Enjoy!

Anybody have experience with pre paid maintenance..thanks

Congrats. Napleton came in at $39,200 for me (incl destination), which sounds like almost exactly the figure you got The thing that frustrated me about Ted was that after he give me the $39.2k quote, I told him the number I had from Arlington and said I would buy from him if he could match Arlington's price (I actually live in Elmhurst, so Napleton would have been slightly more convenient). He told me to come on in and that he was "sure I wouldn't be disappointed." So, I show up, and he says he can't do any better than $39.2k. Obviously it was only a $250 difference, but I was annoyed enough that he wasted both of our time that I wound up sticking with Arlington. He was also very ambigious about what they had in stock, and was trying to sell the idea that he could trade for any Tech model in the Midwest once we agreed on price. I wasn't overly enthusiastic about having my new car driven 200 miles by one of the dealership's guys.
 
I actually test drove the car first at McGrath and had a pretty decent experience with them. They had no Techs in stock, though, and so couldn't come close on price (invoice - or about $39.6k - was their best offer). Sales guy was really honest about what they could do, though, and didn't waste anyone's time. Always interesting how much the experience can vary from person to person, even at the same dealership.
 
Naperville was probably the biggest joke for me. Quoted $41,900 incl. destination, or almost $3k above what I eventually paid. One would think the Internet guys follow these forums and know what people who request online quotes are realistically going to pay.

new tech/ent by nabeelfarooqui

hi all,
just got my tech/ent puppy for 41,750 (with free protection package) + TTL from nashville,tn... from all the research that i did, this was the absolute best deal that i could pull in the mid-south... not as cheap as some in the north east (40,200 was the cheapest that i heard) but not bad, all in all...
 
now here is my (slight) dilemma... i really want to lease-to-buy this vehicle... i fought tooth and nail to get the cap cost down... but i realized during lease signing that the buy out price is based on msrp, not adjusted cap cost... due to religious restrictions on doing transactions with money borrowing/interest, i couldnt do the 3.9% finance, which would have turned out very sweet for me... but i wanted to know, are the buy out options in the end negotialbe?? and i am assuming that in case it isn't and i buy out with the end of term price, which is $21,850 (46%) i suppose that it will come out about $2750 more than if i were to have purchased it right now instead of leasing?? are my calculations correct - i took 46% of the $6000 that i negotiated down....

The car is worth the same amount at lease end, no matter how good a deal you negotiate on it... Money saved by negotiating a lower selling price is all reflected in a lower monthly payment. What you pay on a lease is the difference between the selling price and the residual (plus finance charges... but in your case, we'll just call it rent)... Since the residual is a fixed amount, then any discount on the selling price flows directly to the lessee.. If your selling price is $6000 less, then you saved the entire $6000, not some percentage of that amount.
 
Negotiating the residual at lease end? That will depend entirely on the market for the vehicle at the time. Some banks won't negotiate at all.. Others will negotiate if the value of the vehicle is far less than the buyout amount. There is no way to know in advance. However, residual percentages have been adjusted down, compared to the last few years, and may more accurately reflect actual market value.
 
If you can't borrow money, how will you pay the $22K for the car, three years from now? (not to be nosy... )
 
regards,
kyfdx

Hi,
Does anyone know whether or not the $2000 market support for MDX in May is still available in June? I spoke with a CT dealership this morning, and according to him, the $2000 market support is gone now. Anyone has the information and can confirm whether this is trure or not? Thanks.

Anyone in the New York tri-state area been able to get the $39,200 including destination pricing that several on this forum in CA and FL have posted? I am in NJ and seem to be hitting a brick wall at $40,600.
 
If so, appreciate if you could steer me to the dealer.
 
Thanks.
