We test drove the Lexus IS, GL (very fast), and the E350. First time I've been in a Lexus since 91 when the LS400 was it. The quality has left the car! It's now a production car. Interior seemed like a cheap facade on all three models. Very thin flimsy center console supported by cheap plastic. Toyota is the #1 production car as of last year (passed GM), and it shows through - they are definitely stamping those Lexus's out. Went back and slid into an Acura TL SHAWD, no comparison. The quality is in the Acura, solid bolstered interior - doors shut quiter and are more solid. I thought handling and performance was better than the GL, although the GL did have a tad bit more available HP (as it should at $53,000). Going to look at the G37 today.

On the price however, the ES was literally leagues AHEAD, i.e. more expensive! talk about getting less for more..

Replying to: acuraprice (Jun 26, 2009 5:17 am) If you've got a firm offer of $37.5K on a SH-AWD, jump on it. But wait, there's more. What's their doc fee? Are they including the delivery fee in that price? Are there dealer installed accessories that you also have to pay for? Do you have a trade? If so, what is it and what are they giving you for it? Long and short of all this, I've yet to see a legit offer eating into dealer holdback. They can play with the numbers a little bit. Add a little here for doc fees, a little there for accessories, under allow for a trade, not include delivery charges, play with finance rates a bit,....all of this makes for the total deal. Dealers I've talked to in OH both say the same things. August is when the '10s hit the lot. My guess is all Acura dealerships will get the '10 models at roughly the same time. |

I am currently looking at two quotes for a TL with Tech. These are dealer demos with about 3800 miles on them, so technically being sold as new. The quotes I am getting are 33, 888 but wondering if they will go lower??

Replying to: acuraprice (Jun 25, 2009 12:43 pm) btw, the 19" tires are 'supposed to' ride even harder than the 'hard riding" 18's which we have. I'm still waiting for the hard ride to start... |
