Metro Denver TL Inventories by cebteb
Jul 03, 2009 (12:40 pm)

I did an on-line check of the 2009 TL inventories at the 3 area Acura dealers and compared it to what I found in April on-line. The Boulder dealer has upped inventory from around 37 to 56. The second dealer is at about the same with an inventory of 35. The third dealer has dropped inventory from around 35 to 27.
 
Now I'm trying to figure out what that all means as far as demand and potential deals. I'm guessing the Boulder dealer has picked up the TL inventory from the small dealers in the mountain states area in hopes of selling more this summer in a more affluent market. I think the third dealer is either doing a good job on sales or is playing it safe in a down economic market. I did note that the SHAWD models did make up 25 to 40% of inventory at all 3 dealers. I also noted a preponderance of Brown colored TLs in those inventories. I though Blue was the non-seller. Hmmmm!
 
Seems like I see a lot of Acura and TL advertising here, but nothing about deals, discounts, rebates, year-end specials. Maybe the latest unemployment figures will get these dealers and Acura to shake loose a bit rather than eat their '09 inventory.

I paid 33K for 08 TL type S on 06/08. You are able to get a 09 as the same price.

Hey Falcon74
I was also in the market looking at the Acura TL+tech. Did you consider reaching out to Steven's Creek Acura or AutoWest Acura of Stevens Creek(if you request your quotes via edmunds, it will reach the people i was negoiating with)? I think you can get the car for 33 to low 33K. I decided against the FWD as i was not comfortable with the seat so looked at the AWD which has better cushioning/seating and loved it. Different story on why i had to pull the plug on the Acura.
 
thanks

BMW 335i......DEAL OR NO DEAL? by acuraprice

335i, jet black/saddle brown, premium, sport, nav, steptronic auto trans, sport wheel w paddles, anti theft, comfort access, heated front seats, satellite w 1 yr, HD radio, ipod & usb:
  
MSRP: $51,845
INVOICE: $47,705
SALES PRICE: $46,500
That's 10.3% off MSRP and $1,205 behind invoice.
Not a lease, outright purchase price includes everything but TT&L, can also use 1.9% simple interest financing.
 
Car is on the water (in transit from Germany) as we speak. Throwing in floor mats, and it drives out with a complete detail (3 coats of wax) and full tank of gas. What do you think? DEAL OR NO DEAL?

Nothing against BMWs. I've owned a couple (last one was a 330i all loaded up....same color in and out as the one you are interested in).
 
I-Drive is nowhere near as sophisticated as the TLs nav, nor is the stereo.
 
But, that's not what those cars are all about. I'll be the first to admit that the ride/handling compromise on a BMW 3 is the best in the biz, bar none. Plus, the 335i is fast....matching many muscle cars.
 
It is smaller on the inside. A little stark, too.
 
The big difference of course is an $8K-$9K price differential over a TL SH-AWD. Yeah, you give up a little speed with the TL, but you gain SH-AWD in the process. In truth, the TL SH-AWD is pretty darn close to the BMW ride/handling.
 
Although I liked my BMWs, I always felt they were overpriced for what I got.
 
Not a bad choice, though. ~$48K for a relatively compact sedan with funky I-Drive....I don't know. That's almost exactly $10K more than I paid for my last one, built on the same platform, with the exact same options, only difference being the twin turbo motor. Up to you whether it's worth it.
 
The better deal would be one without i-drive. I think the comfort access (which nets the same push button start without inserting a fob) was somewhere in the $400 range on the BMW (going by memory). That kind of struck me, too.
 
If the name cachet means something to you, you can get a new MB C350 Sport series for much less right now.
 
But, if you're liking the BMW, that's a good price for one equipped like that.
