| 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.

Replying to: rajeevpsft (Sep 12, 2005 2:50 pm) 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! |

I just made a deal for a 2005 TL. This is what I got: Abyss Blue Pearl Camel interior Navigation system Automatic transmission OTD price: $34,959. This price also includes wheel locks, mud guards, all season mats, and trunk tray. This was from Chevy Chase Acura in Bethesda, MD. It was very close between them and Rosenthal Acura in Gaithersburg. I contacted dealers via the Edmunds and KBB internet service. I got real quotes via e-mail, and used that to get the best deal. Thank you to everyone on the forum, as your suggestions helped greatly. |

| Bought a 05 TL 6 sp in Feb without the waranty.The car runs like a dream with no defects and even gets 35 mpg on highway with cruise control.The electronics appear so complex esp. with the nav so I would like to add a waranty,I only drive 10k miles per yr so a product with low milage but many yrs would fit. | |

Replying to: minspa (Sep 12, 2005 9:44 am) Yes it is important to cast a wide net. I contacted Acura dealers in Oakland, Pleasonton (I think), and just bid one against the other. |

After the Labor Day weekend, I purchased an 05 TL w/o Nav (Red w/ Camel interior) from Mathews Acura (located technically in Marion, OH, which is 30 minutes north of Columbus). Their internet price was $31,000 (which included destination fee and the protection pkg - tire locks, mud guards and trunk tray). Taxes were an additional 6.5% and license fees were an additional $25.00. Lindsay Acura (located in Columbus) was offering $31,300 for the same car. Acura of Dayton (60 miles west of Columbus) offered a Blue TL w/o Nav for $30,650 (including the protection package). Ultimately, I went with Mathews Acura because they aggressively priced their TL on the initial offer. Other dealers offered to "match" Mathews Acura's price but I wanted to financially reward the aggressive pricing dealer. They seemed to deal with me with integrity. So I reciprocated with integrity and gave them the business and rejected all other offers. Good luck to anyone that is looking to purchase a TL in the Columbus, OH area. |

Replying to: samuelh (Sep 06, 2005 8:38 pm) Thanks for your posts. My TX/LA internet quotes are similar. I live in Baton Rouge and have been looking for a year. Had to get a minivan and settle the wife and kids transportation situation first. Now I don't have to worry about the TL trunk space being slightly smaller than I wanted for a family car. The best so far on initial castouts is in the $33,500 range for '05 TL w/Nav. Those prices were from John Eagle and Sterling McCall. Classic in Beaumont, TX offered $33,800 which is the same given the included protection package. Since I live closer to MS, I inquired to Northpark (outside of Jackson) but they gave me a slap in the face (and above TMV) price of $34,500. I've been dealing with Baton Rouge the "old fashioned" way visiting the dealer for test drives and will go in to discuss price tomorrow. I hope they don't get fussy if we need to fetch one from elsewhere as I fear. It's too bad the south doesn't have the same deals as the West Coast, it seems. I like Abyss Blue-no longer being made for '06  . I decided to get Nav after reading the comments by others that it is more helpful than expected not to mention I'll get Michelins rather than the Bridgestones that are always dissed as a bad tire for this fine vehicle. I would go for Parchment first if they had it as an option but they don't in blue and the Camel is just too yellow for me so Quartz it shall be. Also, my salesman said they just got the 2006 TL brochures in so I have to go get one of those and see what I think of the "improvements" and relive the '05 vs '06 debate for myself. I think they're changing to Royal Blue Pearl for '06 so I got a Honda Accord '06 brochure (none on the lot) from my Odyssey salesman; I don't think I like it as much not to mention the potential comparison to the Accord. More later? PS Hope you made it through the Hurricane ok.
