Replying to: mark196 (Jun 06, 2008 11:10 am) When I bought my '05 TL in Boston area (at invoice), I wanted a base TL. No pro packs, vinyl roofs, pinstripes, spoilers, rust and dust, mop and glow, extended warranty. I had no problem buying such a car without any pressure to add such (to me) frivolities. However, YM, and region, MV...  Good luck. |

I am curious to see the accuracy of the prices paid that are reflected in the forum. I see statements such as I got a quote of $27500, $3500 below invoice is not a bad price etc. I live in NJ and I was politely shown the door at the 3 dealerships in my area when I asked for these prices. The lowest price I got was 28500 for the base TL(with splash guards, mats, locks) + dest + tax + doc fees. Either I am missing something, or some people here are very persuasive. Your comments? Regards, SC. |

If everyone could get the lowest price, then every post would have that price.. That doesn't mean that price wasn't legitimate.. they may have left some important detail out (trade involved, demo, etc..).. or, it might have been their lucky day... Maybe a greenpea salesman who needed a sale and the manager was having a good month and threw him a bone.. Or.. maybe that poster didn't include destination or the $599 doc fee on their sale..  If the majority of the posts say $28,300-$28,700, then picking the outlier price is not going to result in a very good success ratio.. (not that you shouldn't try).. regards, kyfdx |

I figure car salesmen make their living negotiating prices, and that I'd have better odds over the internet. I can also cover more dealers with hardly any effort. It's my understanding dealers have to pay a "fee" for every car on their lot at the end of the month. The guy I bought my car from told me he gave me a good price because it was the end of their month (actually the April 24th) There can be a huge difference in prices among dealers in an area. There was a $3,000 difference between two dealers in the Atlanta area. Hope this helps, Guido |

Replying to: astro13 (Jun 08, 2008 7:42 pm) IMHO, at $4.00 per gallon gas the demand for TLs is not going to pick up anytime soon. I'd expect a couple of months of demand when the 09 TLs are released and then demand will head back down. The way the economy and gas prices are looking, it's going to be a buyers market for anything with a 6 cylinder for at least the next year.
