Hi,
I work for a local south bay area Acura dealership, AutoWest Acura of Stevens Creek. I've done a locate on the tech model 2009 in sterling gray and have found none. The current colors in this area are Silver/Black/White and Red. The other colors are out of production for the rest of 2009. I am glad to help you in any capacity that I can.

Paid $39.5K + $299 doc fee + $75 title + $50 registration + $2,468.75 MA sales tax 6.25% . OTD =$42,392.75 (before dwn pmt of $2K). put $2K down and got the 2.9% int rate. Can't say enough good things abotu Schaller Acura in Manchester, CT. Very smooth and easy, no pressure process. I had called around a lot of dealerships in New England. They had the best price and the expact color combo I wanted. Spent about 10 min with the fincance guy (who was great) and that was it. Since I live in MA they are getting it registered for me and to driving it to my house to save me haveing to drive to them a second time in CT.

Has anyone purchansed 2009 Base in Colorado recently? Can you share your buying experience here? The best price I have quoted for is about 36800, which is a lot higher than the price posted here. The dealers in CO seem not willing to negotiate very much.

Caprice2:
 
I tried Duval first, but they did not have the color I wanted and their price was WAY high. I had to spend a day of (tough) negotiating with Orange Park to get them down. I assume in the end they wanted to make the sale vs risk waiting to try to make a couple of more bucks on someone else. They had a lot of MDXs on the lot. The people at Orange Park were nice and professional. They spent a lot of time to show and set up the features on the car.

Just don't go to Marin Acura - those guys think they can bully you with their old-school full pressure sales tactics into buying a car, even one that you don't want at a price that is ridiculous. I can share a lot more if you're interested but I didn't think car dealers operated like that anymore because so much information is available to the consumer now.
 
Thanks for all the information you shared!

An Example
For the purchase of a $30,000 vehicle with 7% state sales tax, the taxpayer would receive a $2,100 tax deduction. The actual tax savings depends on the amount of sales and excise tax paid in your state and on your tax rate. Ask your dealer about your state's tax rates.

 
Keep in mind that its deduction not credit,,,
So if you are 15% tax bracket your savings are 0.15*2100=$315...
Thats just 300 on a 30K car...Is your time worth that much?
 
Also if you are living in a high state tax states like CA, NY, NJ and are making >80K and have a mortgage deduction then probability is VERY HIGH that you are subject to AMT...then no deduction for you!!!
 
I am not a CPA...but devil is in the details
 
I believe tax deduction should not be considered at all in a anything that is an expense.
For me if it is an expense it driven by two things
1) Passion and/or
2) Value/Utility
 
This is what I would consider
1) Do you like the looks of 2010 or 2009 (Front grill is different)
2) New transmission for Acura. Are you OK with it? Last time when honda/acura went from 4 speed to 5 speed it was a disaster. Transmission failing at 65K to 70K miles. Go read threads on MDX/Accord/TL board regarding 2000/2001 transmission
3) How badly you need car now
4) Time value of money Vs. Timing of car buying

I agree with sanjaysdca about the tax deduction. There are not too much we can get from tax deduction.
 
Does 2010 model has the same transmission for those in 2009? I heard about transmission problems about 2010 models as well.
