Help-Invoice Price on TL no Nav and my plan? by tonyf68us

I would appreciate any insights on my questions.
 
I am planning to buy a 2007 TL no nav this month (and can wait until last day of the month). First, Edmunds shows invoice price for TL (auto) without Nav as $30,848. Someone in this thread had mentioned an invoice on it as $31,500 or so. What is the correct invoice price?
 
Second, what's a reasonable deal? Considering the invoice of $30,848 makes their cost $29,923 (with the 3% holdback-correct?) and everything I've read so far, it seems I might be able to offer invoice + TTL or am I crazy? I live in NJ and have easy access to Princeton Acura, Brigewater Acura, and Langhorne Acura.
 
And my last question is what is best way to proceed? Do I simply e-mail the dealerships with my offer and see what comes back? Do I visit and do it in person?
 
Again, any comments would be appreciated.

If you look back to November, there's a great posting on how to plan to buy. It worked well for me.
 
When I picked up my Acura in November, the saleswoman told me that in order for them to get credit for the sale in a particular month the car had to be delivered before the end of the month. Anyone out there know whether it's true?

What was your price before the TTL.

Correct me if I'm wrong but holdback is 3% of MSRP, not invoice. A reasonable deal for you would be invoice + TTL. I paid $9 over invoice for mine but some here have done better than that.
 
I called 5 dealerships within 100 miles of my location and, after working over my own numbers of what I was willing to pay, I gave them my out-the-door price and asked if they would take it. Two dealerships took me up on my price and I chose the closest of the two. Unfortunately, my local dealer wouldn't deal with me (look at my past posts). Usually dealers in smaller markets are more willing to deal, especially near the end of the month.
 
My experience with internet sales is like participating in "a game." It takes too long and eventually they might wear you down. Their $1000 off MSRP "internet special" is really bogus. You can achieve that at any dealer you personally visit.

I purchase my 07 TL/without Nai for $31500+TTL by sunping

Is this a good price? I am in Southern California, the buying only took me less than 2 hours from walking in to driving the car out. I was very pleased with the non-hassle process.
 
However, because it was so quick and the dealer did not seem to hesitate to take my ask price, I am thinking that I should have asked for $30,800 or so --- just stick to the invoice price.

2007 TL w/ Navigation by tballer

I received a several quotes for a 2007 TL with Navigation. THe best quote I received is below:
 
MSRP $36,795
sales price: $34,350
3 yr/12k mile lease: $485/mo with $530 out-of-pocket at signing.
 
I am not sure :
(1) whether this is a good deal or if I can get the dealer to go lower or another dealer to beat the offer; and
 
(2) whether I should lease or buy.

Not sure where you live, but I just got an initial quote of $33,800 in Northern VA. I would contact a couple of other dealers. Also, any thought on moving up to a type S, Residual is a little higher if your leasing.

I live in Cleveland, but so far my best quote was from Akron.

If you really want nav, see if he can get you a type s at or near invoice,(unless you really dislike the type S) because of the higer residual your payments may be about the same at that price. The TL with Nav has a 1% lower residual than the type S and a 2% lower residual than the non-navi.

Thanks. I have not driven the Type S, is there a significant difference?
 
Also, if I could get the TL w/nav close to invoice (which I found to be around $33,137) wouldn't it be about a wash, given the higher invoice price of the Type S (invoice $34,968)?
