I would also like to knoe where did you get TL-S for 23,500. I will go there. Thanks
#9 of 10991 come on now stickyman ... by djdez Aug 05, 2003 (3:23 am)
the INVOICE price on a TL-S is $29053 ... the BEST deal I've seen is $1000 UNDER invoice, which would make the car around $28000 ... so, that would mean they are eating the holdback, and essentially making NO $$$ on the car !! Are we to believe that YOUR dealer actually sold the car at a $4500 LOSS and even gave you the $500 or so protection package ??? I think not !! You're not telling us something here !   And, WHERE were you able to drive 135 MPH ? Just curious ... lol

"And, WHERE were you able to drive 135 MPH ? Just curious ... lol"   Clearly, you've never spent time in the Boston area.
#11 of 10991 2003 TL Base Package by skynet2500 Aug 05, 2003 (7:48 am)
Is $26500 a good price for 2003 TL??
#12 of 10991 by cjfairman Aug 07, 2003 (3:51 am)
DJDEZ, Can you tell give me the name of a dealership please. I'm in Michigan and the dealers here are still staying $500 over invoice. I'm willing to travel a bit, especially for $1000 UNDER. Thanks cj
#13 of 10991 $1,000 under invoice by dulnev Aug 08, 2003 (10:55 am)
Couldn't be true. The dealer holdback on Acura is either 2% or 3%. At $1,000 under invoice they'd be selling the car at a loss. Maybe it was $1,000 under invoice but + $500 in junk fees + another $500 in markup on accessories. This I would believe. Replies to this message: nvn (May 02, 2005 9:08 am)
#14 of 10991 New TLS by stickyman Aug 08, 2003 (1:47 pm)
I apologize to everyone for my error. In my excitement of purchasing the 03 TLS, I typed in $23,500 and should have been $29,500.00. I apologize again for the error. In Iowa, between the burp of Hamburg and Rt 2, (I29)there is a great stretch to lay the ears back. The speedo read 135 before I backed off and the wind noise was really low. With the big dig in Boston, I can't see how anyone can get up to 60 much less 70 or 80. Once again my apologies to all but, I love this car....
#15 of 10991 can someone breakdown the fees? by cjfairman Aug 08, 2003 (8:09 pm)
Thank you all so much, your advice has been very helpful. I'm about to wrap up my deal on an 03 TLS. I'm getting conflicting stories from 2 dealers. (I'm sure this shocks everyone here) Anyway, can someone tell me what the real non-negotiable fees are? I'm sure some of you think you didn't pay acquisition fees, or documentation fees, but they were rolled in somewhere right? Or am I wrong? One dealer tells me acqu. fee is $550, the other says $525. One tells me security deposit rounded up to nearest $50 the other says nearest $25. One tells me documentation fee of $160 is "state law". They both tell me that their advertising fee is non-negotiable. This I really don't understand. Isn't advertising under "the cost of doing business catagory?" I advertise for my business too, but I don't tell my patients that I'm tacking on an extra $400 for my ad in last week's newspaper. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The only fee I trust so far is tax, and plates because I know sales tax must be paid. These others just seem like miscellaneous additions. When the dealer says they are non-negotiable, can I tell him that's not true? Are these fees the same nationwide? Can anything be waived? I mean truely waived not just dropping the price and adding them back under another catagory. Thanks board cj

and my sister bought her TL-S w/nav for $31,000 which also includes rear spoiler, mud guards, and free oil changes for life. That was in March.

How does she like the car after 5 months? Has she had any problems? How about mpg? If she had to do it over again, would she buy the TL?
