Mike Harvey Acura actually quoted me for a base, non-navi TL, for $27,400. But I didn't like the sales person...very pushy....I told him exactly what I wanted, the color, navi etc...and he quotes me that price.....I'm like...$27,400? for a Navi TL??!! And he said...oh....no no no......non-navi.....he then quoted me a base price of $31000+ for the Navi TL and that any other dealer quoting less is losing money on it....and I"m like...and that affects me how???
 
If I were you....try to get the best internet quotes through all the dealers.....that's what I did....Marin was actually very expensive....and Serramonte was the cheapest....but they wanted to charge me for the trunk tray even though it is part of the pre-installed protection package.....Marin called me later on.....this time it was the sales manager.....quoted me $31,000 also....(whatever $5K is under MSRP) I told him no deal and I was going to get it at Serramonte.....he asked what the price was....I told him $30,600 (I didn't tell him that I had to pay an extra $237 or so for the accessories) he then offered to beat the price at $30463 including the whole protection package and all weather mats. Since I lived closer to Serramonte, I told them about this and they matched it.......I really don't like playing them against each other....but in the end....I couldn't buy it from serramonte knowing that I could get it for almost $400 less in Marin.......so I caved in.....that was the only time I had them match the price....
 
I love the car.....though I've been averaging 18MPG highway and 14MPG city....ouch!! I"m glad I don't drive that much....and no...I don't drive over 65MPH either....hope this improves with time......its a beautiful car....but not at this gas mileage....

I hope this helps. Harper Acura is quoting $32650 (invoice +3%) with 0.9% financing for the base TL. I assume the TL with Nav would follow the same formula.

Look at some of the posts dated around 4/25/08. post #9096 (eaf2) talks about experience buying in the NJ area. Looking back during that time many folks shared their buying experience. Good luck!

Good luck with your new Acura! Your gas mpg...made me question if you may be using regular gas instead of premium gas as the car calls for. From what I have read regular gas will take a huge "bite" out of your mpg. I know this is not the forum for this....but please look in on the premium vs regular gas Acura forum. I read some great info. there!!

I actually use Chevron Supreme...91 ...that's what's recommended for the car....I think the reason for my lousy MPG is that I only drive around 20 miles or so each time...mostly within the neighborhood....my freeway driving is minimal.....even with that though...I was hoping to get 18MPG as it states on the standard specs for city driving.....

Thanks for the info. Stevens Creek quoted 30,899 including destination, plus fees (for cash sale). We bought our MDX from them 2 years ago and they were completely straight with us (pricing all done over the internet) but maybe I should contact Serramonte and Marin - they're both closer than San Jose. Elk Grove (near Sacramento) quoted 32K, then told me to bring in a written quote and they'd match it. 2 years ago they renegged on price when we got there.

Traded my '03 CLS w/ 50K miles - needed 4 tires - had electrical problems & needed 45K service - bad FAX due to $12K rear end accident. Also needed new tabs. Bought '08 grey TL Nav w/protection package.
 
 CL Trade in + $22,435.00 OTD. Financed balance at BOA at 4.95% w/no finance fees. Maybe not the best deal - but, Acura Of Bellevue & Acura Of Lynnwood wouldn't even touch it. Thanks for everyone's help & info - it was truly invaluable. THIS IS ONE HECK OF A GORGEOUS CAR !! Now I just need to learn about all the incredible bells & whistles.
SOS - Save our Sonics !!

That's a good price.....I went over my purchase contract and my total including fees....no sales tax..... is $30,792.75. Includes the destination title etc.
 
Are they quoting the options? , the protection package, which includes the wheel locks, trunk tray, all weather mats, and color matched splash guards with it? just wanted to make sure we're comparing apples to apples here....that's what my price includes.....
 
To make it easier for the other dealers to match...try to get the OTD price...and have them match that...much easier....so you know your actual total by the time you get them to agree to a price.
 
Try to get them to email you the quote...makes it so much easier since you have proof of what they quoted you....Marin might be eager to match or beat that by $200 or so ...I didn't even need to email them the offer..talk to the General Sales Manager...look on marin acura's website to see who it is.... and not just anyone there...he's the one who would negotiate everyone else won't give you a deal....Serramonte would want something in writing....serramonte, the internet department is best.....if they send you an email....contact the person on the email by calling them to see if they'd match the price you got...but you'll need an email to send to them....
