Base TL no Nav, and it's before TTL. It seems, we are paying more for it than folks down in Northern CA.

I'm curious about sales tax. Power Acura South Bay is in Los Angeles County, and the sales tax is 8.25%. Orange county's sales tax is 7.75%. Maybe the sales tax is based on where you live, not where the dealer is located. I live in Ventura County (7.25% sales tax), and I'm also shopping for a 08 TL w/Nav. Can someone shed some light on how sales tax is decided?

Sales tax is usually determined where the address of the vehicle registration will be.

33000 + TTL and normal fees (dealer stock tax and paperwork fee ~120)
.9% financing for 48 months
 
comes out to about 580/ month with my trade and tax credits.
 
also they give free oil changes for 4 years..

Thanks for the info. Another related question. If I buy 08 TL from a dealer far away from home, will the local dealer be happy to fix any possible problems? Like the rattling problem, which seem to be the most common complaints for new TLs.
 
I mean I won't feel too bad to ask my local dealer to fix any problems if the car is from them. But how can I ask the local dealer to fix the car if it's not their car in the first place? So is it a wise move to buy cars from another place just to save several hundred dollars?
 
I understand the manufacturer will probably be responsible for it, but still want to understand how it works and what the experiences folks on this forum had before.

Hey guys,
I am looking to buy a 08 TL-S in next few weeks and I dont think I can wait for the '09 as i really dont' like wat Acura has done with the '09 TSX. I live in NJ and was wondering If any of you had any experience with any dealers and would like to recommend some body who has the best price and the buying experience.
 
P.S. - any other feedback will also be gladly appreciated.
 
Thnx

I asked the same question to the sales guy I was purchasing from. He told me that Acura requires that all warrany issues be handled by ANY Acura dealer...not just from the dealer that sold the vehicle to begin with. He also noted that my local dealer would want to establish a relationship with me in order to get future service related business...which makes sense. Even though they may not have sold you the vehicle, they still want to make money off you through their service department. I've also been listening for the rattling noise that many other owners seem to have noticed, but I haven't heard anything yet (knock on wood). Nothing but a smooth, quite ride so far, and I hope it stays that way. If I do however, I plan on going to the Acura dealer down the street, rather than driving 42 miles to the dealer I purchased from. Good luck with your purchase!

I used DCH Montclair Acura to purchase my 08 TL-S. The lowest price I got was from Springfield Acura and Montclair was willing to match it after a bit of back-and-forth with them. The only reason I wanted to go to Montclair was for their lower fees. No one else would match the price from Springfield and wished me well after I tried to get them to do so.

It's not the rattles you should be afraid of. Have you noticed vibrations of the gas pedal and the floor while accelerating slightly or driving on a highway with rpms around 2,000?
