Lets get down to business, Ladies and Gents by rpram1

After reading all the recent posts I thought it was time to get this group organized (mainly so that I can figure out what to offer). OTD prices are too difficult to break down (too many different states, taxes and interpretations). So lets just say everyone post what they think the target price is for the follwing ( before tax, title and license):
 
(list any accessories you got added to your deal by the dealer):
09 MDX Base
09 MDX Tech
09 MDX Tech+Ent
09 MDX Sport
09 MDX Sport+Ent
 
It might be the price you paid or just the price you think is the target given todays incentives, marketing support, etc.

I am in...if I could get 09 MDX Base for 34K (including dest+freight+doc charges) as others have claimed I am ready for a group buy. Email me at cbusireddygmail.com if you are organizing this. I live in NJ and 4 hr drive to VA is fine for me.

Not thinking about a group buy; just want to make sure we all have the best information. I am a long way from Virginia, so let's just say I am looking to force Virgina pricing to the dealers of the midwest and beyond.

No, I then took the trade off that price. Originally I was quoted $38,350 for the base MDX. I was able to get 2 other competing offers. The best was $35,488 + TTL. I used that price to negotiate. I got our local dealership to match this price. Only negative was, the color combo I wanted had the Acura protection package (all weather mats, wheel locks), roof rack and body moldings already on it. The protection package was $495, roof rack/body moldings an additional $615. They did come up an additional $500 on my trade to comp me for the protection package. I was fine with paying for the roof rack and moldings because I wanted those. So, that brought the price up a bit - but I still feel like I did well. Not the $34,099 +TTL that others have gotten, I used that number, but no dealership around here would bite!! My trade was ready to die, so I just had to make the deal, otherwise I would have no trade. I feel good about it, especially with the low financing. I bought mine in SC, not Chicago. Hope this helps. Definitely use the internet to have the dealerships bid against each other and see what you find? They are getting limited with 09 models, so I think the deals aren't as good as earlier this fall. Good Luck!!!

Ladies and Gents,
 
I live in ATL, and the prices I have been quoted are not anywhere close to the one posted here.
 
I am looking for
09 MDX Tech+ENT. The quotes I received with dealers in ATL is from $42.5K to $43.5K.
 
Not anywhere close to $41K as mentioned from the VA dealer.
 
Any info, please email me at ckwu511gmail.com

I suppose the other question is how the Dealer Cash of $2,000 is being used in your negotiation.
 
I always assumed with Honda/Acura it was my job to try to get a piece of the dealer cash into my hands in the form of a lower price, knowing the dealer was going to get a big fat check from America Honda.
 
So I would say that to get closer to the VA dealers you need to grab some more of that dealer cash by holding firm on a lower price demand - maybe at least split it in half, thus trying to get real close to $41k without budging.

rpram1,
 
I disagree.
 
I think enough of us (at least here in NY/NJ) have beaten up our local dealers and I don't think anyone has really gotten much below $36K for the Base MDX.
 
I just think, for whatever reason, this VA dealer has (or is it now HAD?) an extra $2K to play with from the factory.
 
I made it clear to multiple dealers that I'd purchase within the hour for even $34,500 and they just completely declined. I think others have had similar results.
 
Thanks to whoever posted about putting an end to the OTD price posts. I didn't see any logic behind posting an OTD price, except, I guess to make sure you don't get ripped off on "fees". But, it just made it too confusing here.

I agree. I tried using the $34,099 and the best I got was $35,488 +TTL. Not sure how that dealership was able to offer that. I was told that earlier this year they were able to negotiate better prices (with fuel prices high, etc), but now, with 09 models getting in short supply, they won't negotiate as much. The financing is key. If you take advantage of 1.9% or 2.9% it really saves a lot. We were looking at an 08 courtesy vehicle for $34,500. They wouldn't budge off that price, it had $17,000 miles on it and some cosmetic defects. We got a NEW one, with everything I wanted on it for $1,000 more! Not to mention with the lower financing, my payments are lower per month. Just pays to shop around. Regardless, we are all getting pretty good deals on a great car!

Hi All,
just add some more light to the dealer cash discussion. It seems
 
In addition to 2k dealer cash we all know, Acura is running two stairstep dealer cash programs on MDX so potentially enable dealers to earn up to another $2,500 . depends on VOLUME, most dealers are banking on getting around $1,250.
pls refer to car_man msg #1599 of 1599 in the lease discussion. Link below
