I notice many of the posting are West and Southwest part of U.S.. Working on a buying a TL in North Carolina. Anyone have info about pricing in N.C. region? I have a written offer for '05 TL (no NAVI, protection pkg=yes) at 32,470. Was wondering just how good that deal really is? Comments welcom.

Hi all, Told another lady I loved her this weekend. I couldn't help myself. She was stunning. With respect to her privacy, I'll just mention her initials; T.L. She is a Nighthawk Black Pearl, Camel interior, automatic with navigation dream lady. Picked her up yesterday at Gillman Acura in Houston and she's worth every penny. Smooth to the touch, exquisite to look at, and best of all, when you ask her to perform, she performs with the willingness and purpose of a woman who has just been proposed to. Okay, before everyone thinks that I'm either crazy or sexually deprived, the answer is neither. Just trying to quell the euphoria of new car ownership. I live in Lafayette La, and drove to Houston to pick up the car. It is approx. 4 hours away. I paid $33495.00 plus $479.00 for the deck lid spoiler. OTD was about $37000.00, which includes 8% tax, title and license. They included wheel locks, trunk tray and splash guards. Now before anybody tells me that it seems a bit pricey, please take the following into account. Prices in Louisiana are not the cheapest and for Houston I got a very decent price. But what made me choose Gillman Acura, was the fact that they were extremely reliable, courteous, punctual with regards to returning e-mails and calls AND were one of the few dealerships that would search for, pick up and deliver the TL to their dealership at no cost to me. The NBP/CAMEL/NAVI combo is difficult to come by and eventually, UP TO A CERTAIN POINT, service received outweighs the price of the product. The whole transaction went smoothly with no pressure and T.C. went out of his way to accomodate me, even answering my questions on Sunday. Well, it goes without saying, that everybody's help on this forum has been invaluable. Thanks!

Replying to: tianc (Sep 06, 2005 3:54 pm) I was able to get a definitive price on my trades in the past. Go to www.kbb.com to get the Kelly Blue Book prices... I was able to get the 'excellent' trade value in all my dealings.

I have been following your posts for a while,congrats on the new TL! What was your best price from Acura of Baton Rouge? Did you try Walker(before they went 6 feet underwater)? I guess BR has a new building to pay for. They will prob. get snootier because they will be the only game in town for a while. I was hoping for around $33k.

Replying to: achenator (Sep 06, 2005 7:44 pm) $35365 with deck lid spoiler, trunk tray, wheel locks, and mud guards. This INCLUDES destination. Said there was no doc. fee or dealer prep fee. This price is EXCLUDING TT&L. The other quote was essentially the same. It was $34990 with deck lid spoiler EXCLUDING TT&L. The reason I say the same is because no mention was made of trunk tray etc, for which they normally charge approx. $345.00. These quotes were from two different people at Acura BR. Please keep in mind that I never negotiated at all with them due to the fact that the hurricane hit at the exact time I was thinking of purchasing. Personally, I don't think they will go as low as Texas numbers. Walker Acura contacted me, asked me a few questions and never got back to me. Classic Acura price was $33795 plus 479 for spoiler, which was $300 more than Gillman and they wanted to charge me $400 to transport the car to their dealership. The car was in Austin so I could kind of understand the cost involved. Vandergriff Acura in Arlington Texas had a good price. It was around $32555 WITH navigation but it was a little too far to travel and they didn't have the combo I wanted. Also would not get the car I wanted for me. Sterling McCall were extremely nice and I think their price was also around $33795 but never had my choice of colors. Achenator, I hope this helps, and I also want you to know that I am far from being an aggressive negotiator. You can most certainly do better than I did, but the timing was good for me and other than the occasional pang of buyer's remorse, I'm happy with my purchase. Good luck.

Replying to: samuelh (Sep 06, 2005 8:38 pm) and I was just curious as to what BR had offered. I would rather pay a few hundred more or go a little farther to get what I want as you did. I know time is running out for preferred colors. As I live on the northshore of Lake Ponchartrain I could prolly go east to Mobile or north to Jackson,Birmingham or Memphis. Thanks again and enjoy your TL.
