What was the dealership? And I'm guessing you took the $1000 off instead of the special financing?

This is an amazing deal. Can you send the details of the dealership, the email address of the internet sales guy and the breakdown of 33,000$.
 
Thank you so much.
 
You guys are making car buying experience so much easier.

That's a great price. The only problem is I really would like to have the new features/upgrades like AUX input, MP3 compatibility, better ride, improved navi, better looking steering wheel (subjective of course), auto on/off headlights on the '07 TL.

Sure, you can get all those upgrades if you are willing to pay the higher price. We all know that car makers come up with a few new things every year to make their cars sell. But if the new things are not that important to you (in the overall gadgetry or performance of the car), it is always a better deal to buy the current model and pay a lower price. If everyone takes a I'll wait for a new model attitude, many car makers will go bankrupt!!

I'm considering the same car and I live near Philly, can I get a heads up on which dealer you dealt with for the $31,100 TL/Navi.
 
Another dealer is trying to get me to buy a demo, any thoughts on how much off a demo with 3800 miles should be reduced?
 
Thanks in advance!

True. I just feel paying $2K more than what most people are paying now (let's say $32K) may be worth it for me considering the improvements/new features/resale value. And before anyone says dealers will be charging sticker for the base '07 TL Navi ($36K, maybe). I seriously doubt that especially in competitive regions like SoCal or NJ (where I would buy). Another thing in my favor is the holidays. If it was the '09 TL, that would be a different story of course.
 
The only question I have now is should I get the white, silver or carbon bronze (my three choices).

Acura TL vs INfiniti G35 vs Passat 3.6 by eseir

Looking to purchase one of these. All three are offering great Deals. I can get a 3.6 with Pack 1 for 27K plus Tax, Tille, and fees. Both the the TL and the G35 for about $3000 more plus the fees. Both the Passat and the TL seem much more upscale on the inside than the G35. Both the TL and the G35 are entry levels luxury vehicles and the dealer experience will be the same. Both are Japanese and perhaps more reliable over the long run even though all three offer similar warranties. THe Passat reminds me a lot of my current 03 Audi A6, which is a good thing. A nice driving and powerful machine and the price seems good for such a nice vehicle. But the Passat might suffer in resale value so eventually I might get more for the Jap brands. Dont' Know. Oh Decisions decisions and more dicisions. ANyone out there with a 3.6 passat willing to share their experiences?

I wonder why the navi option on base TL went up to $2.5K ?
 
edit- I forgot the backup camera in addition to NavTraffic.

Buying Experience, York PA/Baltimore MD Area by ponderpoint

I would advise anyone in York PA to go to Baltimore or Harrisburg (maybe Lancaster). The sole Acura dealership in York is pretty much a study of "Only game in town", developing an exclusivity attitude that doesn't really exist. My Acura TL buying experience actually started last year but was postponed by keeping an old Saab going for another year.... I guess you could say I got the ultimate low price.
 
My wife saw a Blue/Parchment TL and got even more excited when she saw it was a manual - at the York dealership. I knew the pricing, so I offered them 33.5K just to lock it up, no questions or "fluff talk" from the salesman. I'm sure this price appears completely ridiculous to folks in this forum, but remember - we have already saved thousands by just keeping an old car going a year longer.
 
THEY TURNED IT DOWN! We were shocked! We split, my wife was dejected and I just told her that I'd hunt around and give it over to internet sales - we would get a far better price but probably not the exact car she loved. I told her that they're trying to get rid of their "lot queens" down in Baltimore or elsewhere. She agreed.
 
Baltimore was hungry! At one dealership I got the definite feel that they were really trying to to dump one car in particular - it looked really "sunburned" like it sat on the lot all season. They started at 31k with no fees. I said no - didn't like it. They started going lower and I said it wouldn't help, I just didn't like the car.
 
We got to Frankel Acura on the north side and found a price of 31k, (really 31.8 because of mumbo-jumbo fees that everyone knows don't really exist) and the salesman would actually try to find the car my wife wanted. I warned him that we were from PA, so don't deface the front bumper (we don't have front plates in PA) and don't put that stupid dealer logo on the back either. Also save the sticker price and brochure (we like to have this when we sell the car someday to a college student or such - they seem to like that) He was very accommodating - putting up with my idiosyncratic behavior. We gave him the order of preference on color the only hard deck item was that it had to be manual. Couple days went by and he found a blue/parchment TL! We went down and picked up the car and while waiting I casually glanced at the sticker price to see where the car originally came from....
 
It was the exact same car that was on the York PA lot!
