Has anyone bought a TSX, 6sp, no nav from Gary Force Acura in Nashville? I am looking for a good deal...aren't we all!! I am willing to travel outside of Nashville for the right price. I was offered $25862 from somewhere in Atlanta. I was not impressed with this price at all.
 
Lemme know if anyone has had experience in Nashville, Knoxville, Chatanooga, Memphis, Huntsville, Atlanta Louisville or Lexington.
 
Thanx

Jul 18, 2004 Purchase of Acura TSX- Sacramento by tsxbuyer

Hi there! I read through a lot of the helpful messages in this forum over the past few weeks before buying my 2004 Acura TSX automatic w/navigation today, and wanted to share my experience.
 
I live in Sacramento, and we have two Acura dealerships, Niello Acura and Lasher Acura. On Friday night 7/16, I sent out quote requests to those dealers plus several others in Stockton and the Bay Area.
 
I included Acura of Los Gatos due to the positive feedback elsewhere this forum and wasn't disappointed: they were prompt in replying, no pressure, and oh so helpful.
 
I was looking for Arctic Blue (auto w/navi), and the Internet manager there found that there were none on hers or any other Northern California lots, but she went so far as to discover that there was an Arctic Blue one en route to Niello by the end of July that was available! I thanked her profusely for her honest and helpful service that in my opinion went above and beyond the call of duty, then I contacted Niello.
 
I received a quote of $27,752 via e-mail. I countered with $27,300. Niello today agreed to a price of $27,482, not including tax, title and document fees, but DID include splash guards and trunk tray at my request.
 
Niello was low key, low-pressure, eager to please and had everything wrapped up in about an hour and a half.
 
I decided to purchase an extended warranty. The 7-yr, 100,000 mile Acura factory extended warranty has zero deductible and was offered at $1,250.
 
I got it for $1,040. The business office rep swore that warranty costs them $940, and he showed me a list that he stated showed the prices the dealer paid for the warranties. After looking at the apparent $940 dealer cost, I looked straight at him and asked directly if there were any other incentives, promotions, or ANYTHING that lowered his purchase cost for the warranty, and he said no - he'd be happy to make just $100 on it. So I went with $1,040.
 
Could I have successfully dickered further? I'm not sure, but I have heard plenty of tales of buyers of other brands paying $1,600+ for their extended warranties, so $1,040 for an Acura factory extended warranty with zero deductible sounded pretty good.
 
I've been through expensive car repairs before, and I know how something like a bad window motor can chew through $400 in nothing flat. The Acura has several computers in it, and you don't want to be paying retail for those pups. So for me, the warranty made sense and was not overpriced in my opinion, because somewhere within 7 yrs/100,000 miles, it's likely that there will be more than $1,000 in repair expenses.
 
Kind of longwinded, but that's my experience! The car will arrive at the dealership for us to pick up at the end of July.
 
Hope this info helps someone out there! And if you're in the San Francisco Bay Area, be sure to give Los Gatos Acura a shot at your quote! They sure impressed me with their responsiveness, helpfulness, honesty and prompt, no-gimmicks follow-through.

I just got a new deal for the auto/non-nav
the dealer offered it for $24,900 destination charge included. I would have to pay the high sales tax of 8.625% for NY and the TT. but the only thing I'm not so sure is the interest rate of 5.9% Apr. that they are offering for financing, did anyone get a lower rate from another dealer in the NY area?

Well, I am now the proud owner (OK, really my wife is) of a satin silver TSX without the navi system. I bought it from Gary Force Acura in Nashville last night. I paid $25,400 + TTL for it.
 
This morning my wife and I went outside and just gazed at it. We kept saying "Man, that is a pretty car."
 
Gary Force was good to deal with, but wouldn't go below $25400. I tried to get it for $25,200. I am still very happy with the price.
 
I did not buy the extended warranty, but the guy was willing to go $1080 for it just by teling him that I knew how much it costs them.
 
Have fun with your TSX's...I know we will!!

$21k for "excecutive loaner" TSX? by ejsj

I saw an ad in last Sunday's paper for a SF Bay Area dealership offering 2004 TSX "executive loaners" for $20,888. I'm assuming the cars were used by folks bringing their cars in for service, and since the TSX has only been out for a year they can't have many miles on them. So $21k sounds like an incredible deal! But could I be missing something? I've seen other used TSX's going for $24k so what's the catch?
