Just purchased a new '09 TL Base from Pohanka Acura in VA (outside of DC). Paid 29,951 + 400 processing + 200 tax & tags = 30,551.
Overall great buying experience, as they did everything to make us happy. Just thought I'd share if anyone lives in that area and wants to give it a shot. They had about 4 or 5 left as of this weekend.

2009 TL - Tech by smith83

Hi everyone. I really appreciate all of the great information on this website!
 
It looks like this vehicle has $2,500.00 cash to dealer and 1.9% financing. I was considering leasing a 2010, but may be better deal to purchase an 09'. Can someone give me an idea of what to offer on a 2009 Tech?
 
Thanks!

Sept. 8, Acura w/ tech clean deal by vivalasvegas

Ok, here is one of the cleanest deals to analyze.
Keep in mind that the deal was made on Sept. 8, a month ago when I believe there was $2000 cash to dealer.
I highly recommend this dealer.
I went through the Edmounds "Get a Quote" where you put in your zip. And one dealer was highlighted at the top as being a dealer that understood what Edmunds and TMV was all about and that if you contacted them they promised to give you their best price on the first quote.
(Note that though from Vegas, there are only 2 not so motivated dealers so looked in SoCal.)
Sent my info and they called the same day to verify color and package, looking at tech.
Then, in the same call, not 5 minutes in I get a quote for $34,315. Being suspicious about all the doc fees and other misc. bs I quizzed him. He said he would get back to me.
Was still suspicious so asked for a walk-out -the-door, writing a check total.
 
$34,315 '09 w/ tech
$3,353.91 sales tax
$8.75 tire/battery fee
$55 Doc fee
$20 (day pass needed to drive to NV to register car)
$29 electronic filing fee DM charged for day pass
 
$37,781.66 TOTAL
 
From the land of $500-$700 Doc fees the $55 fee is amazing. We ended up picking the car up a few weeks later. The total was actually even a couple bucks cheaper! Even though our situation was a bit odd, driving from out of state, they were very accomodating.
 
The salesman Nadeem was great. Still can't believe I got a quote in 3 minutes!
A little bit of pressure sale in the "finance office" although paid cash for car.
Be prepared for warranty, upholstery protect (complete with demo), paint protect, lojack sales. The price dropped $500 in 5 minutes which is a real turn off. Finally told him that we had to be somewhere so we needed to wrap it up.
Did not need any warranty as primary driver will not put a lot of miles on so the years would expire before the mileage.
 
I highly recommend Power Acura of South Bay (Torrance, CA) for an auto purchase. And Nadeem (internet sales) made the deal happen.
 
I would not recommend buying any accessories here as they were very high.
 
We were very fortunate to get a car with 2 accessories we desired and did not even know until we got home; "mud flaps" backsplash protecters and wheel locks!!! We were just going to purchase later as many on here have suggested.
 
S.O. hates, hates the game playing and sitting around in the dealership office so he thought for sure this was too good to be true and waited for the add-ons, but it never happened.
 
So Power Acura of South Bay and ask for Nadeem tell him you want his internet price or just go through the Edmunds site like I did.
$34,315 acura w/ tech early Sept.
 
Woot.
BTW got a Palladium with Ebony interior for anyone who has a new TL, I love the blue lights that light up the console/drink area at night. cool.

I would look at TMV. If you want the best deal start under that, but it seems that there are still people who want Acuras so there still may be competition, meaning dealers won't go much below TMV, depending on where you live.
 
Las Vegas NV dealers would hardly budge and scoffed at TMV pricing. CA got a best quote in 3 minutes.
 
Quoted $34,315 a month ago which was a few hundred under TMV.

I have been watching this Acura TL "prices paid" thread and the same Infiniti G37 thread. The Infiniti thread is way more active so either there is a lot more interest in the G right now or for some reason people looking for info about prices for the TL don't post on here. Don't know which. However, Acura was the only luxury car brand that had a significant falloff in sales in Sept compared to the other brands.
 
What does this mean? I think the new design(I like it just fine) is not as well liked and there is less demand for the car. And that means that if you're looking for a TL now might be a good time to really hit the dealers with some low offers. Just my two cents from following the numbers.

I believe the lower sales in September was a supply problem. I recently leased a 2009 TL in Chicago and visited 4 acura dealers in the area. None of the 4 had more than 5 TLs on the lot and their total inventory for all models was less than 40. Normally these dealers had over 100 cars on their lots.
 
I also heard that acura stopped producing the 2009 TL in early spring and did not start shipping the 2010 TL in earnest until a week or so ago. My salesman said that they had quite a few people come in looking for a specific color choice and left since they had such low stock.
 
Acura either miscalculated or is limiting supply because of the economy and in order to keep resale values high.

I was just looking at the sales numbers and I have to admit I was looking at them in a vacumn. If what you say is correct, and I have no reason to doubt you, that may be the reason. When you look at Infiniti G37 sales in comparison it seems that Acura may have missed a lot of sales by having such low inventory. I still think you should be able to cut a decent deal in Oct/Nov timeframe as they have to feeling the pinch.
