I had the worst experience trying to get a 2008tsx by stipmom

My daughter wanted black on black. First we went to AcuraofOcean in NJ where we had purchased before.They didn't have any in stock and would not bother to look for one without an additional$400-ontop of a price that was not even competitive. I give alot of credit to Bill Vincents Acura in Sommerville. The internet manager there tried to get the car for two days but none was around in NY or NJ. We then switched to the DC area since the car was going to be registered in Maryland anyway. Chevy Chase acura swore up and down that they had one in stock. Gave them a$500 deposit and got a vin number. I kept on asking him if he was sure they had one since the website did not seem to show any and he said they did. At 6:30 p.m. on Sat. he sent me the cost breakdown as my daughter's fiancee was going to pick it up on Monday.Monday morning he calls to see the car and suddenly it was sold Sat.nite. Since his email to me was after 6 I doubt that was the case.I then contacted Tischer Acura in Laurel Md who had also had the car on Sat. and asked him if it was still available.He said it definately was so I gave him a $500 deposit with again intending to pick up the car that night. Two hours later we get a call-the car supposedly had been sold late Sat. Shouldn't he have known that before he was willing to take my mone?.We did finally locate the car atRadleyAcura inVa for$26000incdestination.They were very easy to deal with.If I ever need another Acura I'd go to Bill Vincents Acura or Radleys.

I have had my car for about a week now and have about 360 miles on it. The first week of driving returned about 24mpg on the trip computer but that involved a lot to Chicago suburban rush hour driving and some idling while playing with the car and warming it up on cold mornings. So I figured that was reasonable. It was about 1mpg more than my 96000mile Audi 1.8T would produce.
 
However the mileage is so conditional on the state you drive and how warm the engine is. This morning after the engine was already warm (about half way into my commute) I filled up with gas and reset the MPG on the display. I then had some suburban 4 lane roads to drive on before hitting the freeway. The freeway was initially stop/start but then picked up to a more steady 55mph. I noticed that the average MPG increased and peaked at 40MPG in this steady state driving. Then turning off the freeway, I burned gas on some other minor roads before parking at work. That last bit reduced my average back down to 36MPG.
 
So for the 10 miles I did after I filled her up, I average 36 this morning. That's incredible! It won't stay that high and I would expect it to drop back below 30 to the high 20s on the drive home but I will monitor that and record it in a spreadsheet. It will be interesting to see if it improves with engine break-in.

I've been going back and forth with some of the dealers in and around Sacramento, CA, and the best price I've been offered so far is $25,880 + fees for a non-NAVI TSX. Seems pretty competitive from what I've seen on here - any input?
 
Stock seems hit and miss around here. Of the two closest dealers, one still has over 20 TSX's in stock, the other is down to 8, only 1 non-NAVI. Other dealers within 100 miles have anywhere from 2 to about 15. I'm not in a position where I really need to buy, so I'm hanging out a bit and waiting to see if there's any price shift that happens once the '09s are officially in showrooms - I think if I could get one for $25k with the 2.9% financing, I'd probably bite.

Here's a deal one of my friends got on a Acura TSX 2008 last month:
  
Invoice: 28353
MSRP: 31005
MF: 0.0014
Residual: 56% of MSRP
Down: 3180
Monthly payment: 350/month
Term: 36mo., 12K miles
  
He qualified for Tier 2 since he did not have much history, only about a couple of years.
  
What do you think guys - Good deal or not? How does the monthly payment look? Good?
  
I am posting this one for him

Hi!
I was not able to find an appropriate place to put up a financing question so please excuse me. Okay so i bought my TSX in aug 2006 with 4.9% from honda financing for 5 years. Do i have a chance of getting a lower interest rate if i choose to refinance my car? I am in central NJ.
Thank you in advance.

Current market interest rates are still a little above 5% on a new car.... and for a used car (which is what you have), it would be even higher..
 
I don't think you'll be able to save any money by refinancing.

massimo1 - nice deal, it looks like that's the bottom price for dealerships in northern CA. I've got two dealerships willing to do that price. Now it's just a question of whether I want to pull the trigger and finding the right color combo.

SMccready: like you I thought I'd wait until the 2009 TSXs come out but I could not bear not to get the color I wanted. I plan to keep this car to at least 150,000 miles.Would have taken exterior in black or royal blue, (liked pearl green a lot but parchment interior does not suit me). This was the last black non Nav base that they had, so I felt some urgency. They had a red and a gray too I think. Other Acura dealers in the SF Bay Area either did not have what I wanted, did not have the low price or have such a poor internet sales department that they don't even answer emails or phone calls.
And you know what? I LOVE this little TSX driving bullet! Besides all the features you all know about, it has GREAT VISIBILITY. Important to me for safety.
 
Good luck to you, let us know what color and price you get.
 
Viva TSX!

massimo1: Seems like just about everyone who gets a TSX really loves it. Stock is starting to dwindle at the dealers I've been talking to, and it looks like I'll have to jump in the next few days if I'm going to. I still know of a few new TSXs in the area that would work as far as color combo goes, but not many. I like the green as well, but I don't think there are any left. My #1 choice would be the Glacier Blue, but I don't think I'm going to find one of those, either. White, Silver or Carbon would all be OK, w/non-ebony interior. We'll see what happens ...
