When I was in the market back in 05, the lowest prices I got were from Acura of Orange Park in Jacksonville and Acura of South Florida in Ft. Lauderdale. I live in Tampa but eventually bought from Acura of SF- my parents live down there so I knocked out two birds with one stone. The Acura dealer in Sarasota alo provided pretty competitive pricing but not as low as the other two.
The Acura dealers in Tampa, Clearwater and Central Florida were a complete waste of time for me. They couldn't compete with price or service.

I was at Scanlon in Fort Myers today trying to buy an 07 TL-S 6MT. I had set a personal limit of 38k OTD (this equated to a purchase price of $35,644 or ~$200 over invoice). Their best offer was $1000 over invoice. He said at that price, they would pretty much make no money. He also said that they do *not* have any holdback - 3% or otherwise and also that the 4.9% financing deal ends today.
It was hard to walk, but I've seen better deals on here and from experience, once a limit has been set, it cannot be broken (well, maybe that's just a rule that I have to hold myself to). Plus, I didn't feel that he was being straight with me, with the holdback and financing.
I also had an invoice offer at Ed Morse in Pampano, but mysteriously, the morning that I was supposed to drive over there and close the deal, all of the 6MTs has been sold. 3 in 2 days. hmmmm.
The Sarasota guy is supposed to call me tomorrow. We'll see what he offers.
At any rate, it does seem that FL dealers are not dropping like some other areas.

Thanks for your insight guys. I have also been setting the deal to 200-500 over invoice. I am going to start the internet bidding wars and see what happens. I definately agree that the prices in FL do not seem to be too great. I am very shocked that, with the population in FL, that the prices have stayed as high as they have. Oh well. I am going to try the SF Acura dealer and see what happens.

Acura TL '06

Thanks for all the information posted here. I just purchased a '06 TL base model for 28.8K before tax and fees from Goodson Acura in the DFW area. I did most of my bargaining through the dealers' internet sales dept. and the best quote I got was 29.4K. I went to the dealer with the lowest quote and asked for car at 28.3K - the lowest quote from this forum. However, dealer flat out rejected that price. It took about 10 minutes after that to get the 28.8 deal, so I think he would have done the 28.3K deal if I was more persistent. Also, the dealer added $300 to the price later for wheel locks and VIN etch etc. which he refused to negotiate on. Looking back, I think I should have bargained with OTD price instead of car price. Does anybody have any idea whether I should get the Acura Care extended warranty, Lojack, Ding/Scratch repair warranty? Thanks to all and, by the way, avoid Vandergriff Acura if in DFW - very dishonest dealership.

I got my New 06'TL basic from Goodson Acura a month ago. I fixed the price on phone/internet for 28.7K. He was asking 28.9K. I drove 4 hours to buy the car. On seeing the new car, I was sold! Well when paying for the car they charged $300 for locks and number etching. I called the sales person and told him, he said on phone was 28.7K+TTL and he never said anything about $300. He was like I did mention about fee with TTL on phone. I felt I was cheated into the deal as Vandergriff was giving 28.9K and he duped me over phone as he fixed 28.7K he took my credit card number and kept 2K on my card. So the car cost me 29K at Goodson but I love my car, even though I felt I was cheated by the dealership. I live abouot 4 hours away from Irving I didn't get ding/scratch warranty but got $400 tires/rims warrenty for 4 years as my car insurance doesn't cover that. Lojack was not avaliable in my state but was told it will bring car insurance down. Be careful at Goodson, but I love my car. Car is great, price in end 29K is lower than what Sherevepart or other TX dealers were offering then.

I loathe the rims that come on the TL/S. Anyone know what invoice is for the optional 17" rims? I do not need/want the summer tires. Thanks in advance.

I got my 06' TL with Navi for 33k OTD at Miami Acura...I live in Ft Myers and they couldn't match that price at all...they will boast that they don't charge for the 599 fee but they must tack it somewhere since they can't beat others prices and they do charge for the fee. You will get BS on what is in stock and not....one note...ALL dealerships can tell you who has what on their lot..Naples was telling me they had my car but 3 other dealers said that Naples doesn't have it, their just trying to get me to come in.

I would recommend trying Delray Acura. I have a TL 06 w/ navi at invoice plus 500. Hassle free. Car came with wheel locks. Bad dealings with Rick Case Acura.
