Thank you Kyfdx... I'm looking at an '04 Base 3.2TL 4D (has everything I want on it). It has 58,000 miles on it, Honda dealer in my town is asking $21,995. I live about 50 miles NE of Sacramento (CA). Do I have any wiggle room to negotiate with the dealer? Also, the dealer is offering a Honda/Acura factory warranty (extended) - should I take it or go outside the dealer for this. This is my first venture with the Acura. I commute and am downsizing from an SUV to a sedan. I absolutely refuse to buy a new vehicle having been horribly burned in the past. I want something safe, gets decent mileage and has a good reputation. I have found that with these and Honda's, but like (really like) the Acura's better. Appreciate any and all help. Thank you.

| I have 3 dealers all offering the above for $33,127 plus TTL. Quite a few color white around, some black, blue, red and silver. Looks like a great price. Any thoughts. One dealer said he has a carbon color on their demonstrator. Said he could save me more money on that. Since thats my preferred color how much lower than above price should I be able to get? Thanks. | |
I was able to negotiate a price of a 2008 TL w/ Navigation for $36,900 OTD. This would include my sales tax at 7%, tag, title and doc fee. Is this a good deal? My other choice is a 2007 TL with 2k miles for $33,800 OTD.

First, I would like to thank you guys here at Edmunds, without you, I would have paid Sticker Price not knowing that I could negotiate to a little over invoice. Second, my wife and I live here in New Jersey and we were looking to get 2 cars, a MDX for her and a TL for me. She went to the MDX forum and found Springfield Acura and we spoke to Calvin. He told us that he would K.I.S. our deal (Keep It Simple) LOL...and that's what he did. $34,500 + Tax 7% Jersey + Doc. Fee $189 + Etch $188 + Prep $400 + MV $389 + NJ Tire Tax $7.50. And that was that. I'm so glad I came on here and found out how to negotiate a good deal. I would have paid $36,940 found out later I could have gotten it cheaper, then bang my head against the wall for the next 46 months...ha ha ha. |

Replying to: ribossi1 (Oct 15, 2007 7:23 am) Put on your helmet! $34,500 is not a bad price (Assuming this is an 08), but what are these other fees? I understand that taxes are unavoidable, but what's the Etch and MV?  Also, never pay for prep fees... that's BS. Some dealers won't budge on doc fees, and $189 isn't too bad, but I always try to avoid these "fluff" fees.
