What is the Blue Book trade-in value for your Accord? Is the dealer offering you more, less, or average for your trade-in?   Assuming the dealer is offering you "average" trade-in value for your 2004 Accord, then the $22,510 doesn't sound too bad for the "used" TL. Acura TLs are among the slowest depreciating cars out there.

Replying to: billyperks2 (Sep 15, 2009 7:23 am) Yikes 17 in town! I know that is what the car is stickered at but I'm spoiled with my 07 TL with 21 in town ( I manually calculate as I have found that the computer is always favorable by about 1.5 miles). Billyperks2 did you calc yours by hand or using what the computer shows? How do you do on the highway? or combination driving? Thanks any info is appreciated. I really like how the AWD and bigger engine handles but the 17 in town is a bit scary. Was hoping to pull 19+ in town if you try to time lights etc as best you can.

Replying to: miketl07 (Sep 17, 2009 4:04 am) Mike- the car has only 700+ miles on it so maybe as the engine breaks in more the mpg gets better.I used the car's computer calculation and I only took the car on the highway three times in one month.I am babying this one, trying to avoid those nasty stone nicks and glass chips.Call me anal (my wife does) but I want to keep the bling on this for quiet some time.

Replying to: Chasboy (Sep 17, 2009 4:45 am) Chas- what is your take on the new Grill and Trim piece for the back that Acura introduce for the 2010 models as an accessory item? They removed the Chrome and made it like a smokey granite color- its on thier web-site.

Replying to: billyperks2 (Sep 17, 2009 5:22 am) Don't blame you on 'keeping the bling'. I feel the same way. Hate the idea of stone chips, etc. I looked at the grill, but the pic is bad. The body color of the car is off-can't tell if it's white or not. I think we need a better, full body pic, where one can change the colors of the car to get a full effect. I wouldn't buy it based on that one pic. Here's another 'alternative": http://www.carid.com/2009-acura-tl-grill/ Replies to this message: billyperks2 (Sep 17, 2009 8:03 am) Chasboy (Sep 17, 2009 10:47 am)

Replying to: Chasboy (Sep 17, 2009 5:46 am) That after market grill is horrendous- I will never go that route. The grill on my car is fine, I have owned the car for one month now and all I get is praise.I remember I was at a Gas Station and while inside paying the attendant, two guys came and asked if that was my car outside.They said it was the freshest thing on the road and I got the right trim (meaning the AWD).

Replying to: billyperks2 (Sep 17, 2009 8:03 am) I agree. My wife and I had a similar experience at a carpet store. 2 salemen went outside to look at it, then came in to ask questions. They couldn't believe the reasonable price for such a cool car.

I'm looking to purchase a used Acura 06 with Navigation... I'm looking at CPO prices and they seem absolutely ridiculous.   $24,460 44,797 miles $23,000 58k miles $23,000 49k miles $25,500 14,400 miles $25,500 20,000 miles   It's a 3-year old car.. and the price from lower mileage cars are only $8-9,000 away from what most of you guys are getting for the 2009 Acura with Tech.   What should be the bottom range of my negotiation? I don't think these prices are even close to reasonable and I don't think the dealers would shave $4-5k off the price. Any ideas? Anyone else purchase the same vehicle CPO for less?
