Glad to see I'm not the only one unhappy with the Phoenix dealers. I test drove at two of them and was ignored by the salespeople until I disturbed them and asked for a drive. Even in the car they were very cold. I test drove G35, A4 and BMW and had such a better driving experience with the salesperson who was friendly and talkative. But I was there to buy a car and liked the TL best.
 
So I tried going the internet route, but they all insisted on talking on the phone to give prices. Not only would they not budge on price, I got lectured about them not discounting end of year to keep the price high so it wouldn't hurt current owners resale values. And that their inventory was so low they could sell all they had and more at current prices.
 
Needless to say I'm still driving my old car and deciding if maybe the helpful saleguy at the Inifinity dealer couldn't get me a good price on the G35. Waiting to see what happens once the '06 hits the lot or maybe SoCal is the way to go now.

The different experiences that frisconick and I had point out the value of casting a wide net. In my experience, the folks at Concord were very easy to deal with. They held a car for us for several days based on our oral commitment to purchase, the matched the best deal we had, answered all the questions we had and followed up after the sale (e.g. helping us program the car with the garage door, etc.) Marin was profession, but wasn't willing to match the lowest quote we received. (Also, so as not to confuse Acura2005 who started the thread, the car we purchased was with navigation, whereas I think frisconick's car was without navi.) The good news is there are a lot of Bay Area dealers from which to choose and it's a great car.

Guys,
 
Has anyone recently purchased a TL w/ NAV in the Chicago area for a good price ?? If so please post... I am seeing $400-$500 over invoice as the best. Also any idea when the 06 TL will be available ? Has anyone pre-ordered an 06 ? Thanks.

Best deal for CA Bay area buyer by rajeevpsft

All,
 
What is the best deal for the TL in the Bay area - is it worth going down to S Ca if there is a better deal?
 
I got quoted 31K w/wheel lock and splash guards. I am not in an immediate rush and am willing to wait a couple of weeks if that will bring the price down

Lease vs Buy by sks109

Why is the lease on the TL so bad?
 
36 Month
12K annual Miles
$605.06/month
 
New to the whole car buying/lease, so please explain. Looking at Audi A4 and BMW 3 series and their leases are more affordable. Please advise.

We just purchased a 05 TL with Nav tonight at Woodfield Acura. Paid 33K even, plus tax, title, etc. I used Edmunds internet service to find them. They came back with the best offer, offered to find the exact color combo my wife wanted, and didn't play any games with us. Sales guy took a lot of time going over the features of the car. I would highly recommend them.

'06 TL Debut by bartalk3

I phoned the Acura 800 number this morning and was told that the '06 TL will debut on Sept. 22. Dealers have been saying end of October, beginning of November, so your bet is as good as mine. Does anyone have any other information.? Apparently they will have the tire pressure monitor. If it's as good as the one on the RL, it will be a worthwhile addition, and a great convenience (compared with crawling around the garage with a tire gauge)!

Thanks for the update on your TL AT w/ NAV.
 
Could you break down that OTD price for us?
 
Sounds like a good deal, but for the life of me, I can't understand why the folks on the left coast that post on this thread seem to be getting deals in the 31.5 to 32.5 (when dealer invoice is aprox. $32.5)
 
I'm negotiating in the mid atlantic region, and have been pricing the TL AT w/ NAV on base price. Best price I've been quoted is just under $33,000. And I'm throwing out a very wide net (3 states). Any advice would be helpful.
 
BTW, What is percentage is sales tax in Maryland?
 
Thx again.

Hi rajeevpsft,
 
I dealt with both Marin and Concord Acura; they all seem to be pleasant folks. The lowest quote I got here in No Cal is about $1,000 more than the lowest one I received from So Cal, and the No Cal dealerships all congratulated me on the deal I got from Santa Monica, and told me they couldn't match it ($31,599 was the quoted price for AT with Nav, $34,227 OTD). But since I was on a persnal trip down in So Cal anyway, so it was a pretty obvious choice for me, not sure if $1,000 worth you a trip down there... At any rate, I wouldn't mind dealing with Concord ($32700) and Marin ($32500) if you don't want to bother going down to LA area.
 
Hope it helps!
