Prices paid for spoiler by salinasx

Help! I've think I've done pretty well on negotiating the price of an auto, cloth RSX. The stumbling block is negotiating the price of the dealer installed spoilers: rear and underbody. Dealer doesn't want to budge from their price, roughly $799 for rear + $1699 for underbody. My questions are: what has someone else paid OR where I can I find info on a realistic price for Acura OEM spoilers.

Purchased a 2004 RSX-S in Silver for 23,000 OTD at Baranco Acura near atlanta. Great Service, and price. Sales tax was at 5% so the car was near or under invoice. Extras I got were wheel locks and a trunk tray, (were included, really had no choice)

my new RSX today: desert silver base model with 5-speed stick and cloth - don't like leather. Purchase price is $19,250 which is about $200 over invoice, and is almost $1000 under Edmunds TMV. It includes a "Pro pack" they wanted $500 for, which explains the "$250" part of the 19,250. That has stuff like wheel locks and trunk tray.
 
The only thing the finance manager tried to sell me was a 100K extended warranty for $995. He was very persistent, despite my repeated assurances that I was not interested. Needless to say, he did not make a sale!
 
I feel good about the price, and I love this car. My old integra just passed 251K miles, and I am hoping the RSX will give me a comparable experience. It is almost time to put the 'teg to rest!

A friend of mine bought one (silver/leather/automatic) recently, he really likes it. Though I'm generally not a fan of automatics, this one (5-speed) is nice and should prove to be economical on the highway.
 
Do you still have your Matrix?

is gone - it was a trade on the RSX - and after three weeks of blissful driving, it is clear it was the right thing to do!

What is wrong with driving an auto?
 
What is your age and what type of driving do you do?

zero engine control, forever in the wrong gear at all times, and loss of what seems like half the engine power when you need it most, because the torque converter isn't locked up.
 
But I am sure this is not the right place to be discussing this...
 
My driving is the usual sort of stuff...my commute to work is short, my commute to campus (graduate school) is not, and all the other typical stuff.

That's not true with a manual shifting automatic. I also use mine for engine braking on snowy roads...works almost as good as a true manual and much better than just using the regular brakes.

Try commuting 700 miles per week in stop and go highway traffic...you'll change your tune.
I don't do it any more, but I did it for the first year after buying my RSX.
