Replying to: acuraprice (Jul 05, 2009 4:37 am) 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. |

Replying to: cman7 (Jul 03, 2009 9:06 am) They are ripping you off. Horrible price, no question. I got an offer a few days ago for an '09 TL with Tech for $33,100 incl destination. Not included - TTL. Also not included - a $55 doc fee. I live in a neighboring state, so will also have to pay $15 for a one way drive ticket, as vehicle will not be registered till I drive it to my state. That's it. Another dealer offered about $33,500, another $34,095 - both of those price not including same items as above quote. The car they're offering you will be 2 years old in another month or 3 when the '10 TL comes out. For 7% more than you offered for the '08 which I assume is without tech since you didn't mention it, you can bargain for an '09 with tech - although the OTD will be more than that of course. |

I was going to go into a neighboring state and purchase my TL on Tuesday 7/7. I was sure that was the last day listed for the 2.9% financing. Went to Acura's website tonight, and see that I went braindead - the last day was 7/6. 7/7 is the date for whatever new incentives, if any, will be offered. Was planning to finance with the 36 month 2.9%. Does anyone know what the new incentives, if any, are for the TL beginning 7/7? Financing incentives - 2.9% continuing, I hope? Dealer incentives - I believe they had $1,000 during the last 4 months. Continuing? More or less or none? Anyone know?

Replying to: jwbooth (Jul 06, 2009 9:50 pm) Everything seems to be gone as of now - no special financing, no dealer incentives. Looks like I really blew it on this one. Wouldn't they go back to special financing and dealer incentives shortly, with the '10s coming out soon?
