Replying to: luv2cruse (Dec 16, 2008 3:53 pm) Thanks for your sharing. Then I don't need to drive 50+ miles to Marin Acura to deal the pricing this weekend, I can check with Las Gatos first, similar quotaion but much closer.

Replying to: luv2cruse (Dec 16, 2008 3:53 pm) Same here in St. Louis. What's up with these Acura salesman. They pulled a bait and switch with us too. I was quoted Base TL $28,900 price via internet. Told him no spoiler. Arrive at their "upscale" showroom and the salesman tells me he made a mistake. The only one left came with a rear spoiler for an extra $750. When I told him to take it off, he claimed he could not remove it. I said leave the spoiler but I want Michelins put on the car instead of the shitty OEM's. He said no.  I returned later that day but the guy left for the day. When I couldnt find the car, another salesman told me it was the guys demo that he drives back and forth to work. If this is the way Acura does business maybe GM will survive.

Replying to: zrocks (Dec 17, 2008 9:55 am) I actually got that a little bit from the Concord dealer. I had a price that I wanted to be matched/beat, and the person I spoke to at first said to come in and they would be confident to beat the price. When I probed a little more via email to get something a little more concrete before I came in, they emailed back to say that there's no way they can beat that price.   I contacted Marin also. To their credit, they said right off the bat they couldn't match the price. At least they didn't try to do a bait/switch on me.   The person at Los Gatos that I spoke to seemed pretty nice, but I didn't really deal with them enough to form a strong opinion.   When I ask dealers to beat prices, I'll usually ask them to beat the OTD price, just so that it's easier to compare.   What kind of prices are you seeing? I just bought a TL a couple of weeks ago, and I'm curious to see if prices are dropping at all now that it's near the end of the year

Alright... I need some help in deciding between these two:   My two choices: 1. 2008 TL w/ Nav: 29,800K (plus Tax+Title+doc fee) with 0.9% 2. 2008 RL w/ Nav: 41K (plus Tax+Title+doc fee) with 6% (Special Financing Expired) Replies to this message: brygo (Dec 19, 2008 11:01 pm) louking (Dec 20, 2008 3:11 am) mugenex6 (Dec 20, 2008 8:49 am) 2008stype (Dec 22, 2008 8:03 am)

Replying to: mugenex6 (Dec 19, 2008 6:51 pm) I would go for the 08 TL since you get the best bang for the buck. If I'm going to spend 41K, then I would go for the 09 TL with all wheel drive and tech package.

Replying to: mugenex6 (Dec 19, 2008 6:51 pm) IMHO, it's better to not restrict yourself to only 2 choices. Your in the driver seat these days when it comes to negotiating a vehicle. Personally, I would never put up that kind of money for a any vehicle with 48k miles. I have been considering the TL as well, but the two Acura dealers in St. Louis must be suffering from recession denial. I got the same quote for a 2008 TL w/o NAV. The Infiniti dealer offered a huge discount on a 2008, but the Infiniti's mpg is low. Replies to this message: mugenex6 (Dec 20, 2008 8:49 am)

Replying to: louking (Dec 20, 2008 3:11 am) Hi Louking, I'm confused... not sure where you're getting the 48,000 Miles from. .
#10005 of 10955 Re: 2008 TL NAVI Best Price in NJDCVA area [fastfred] by al1515 Dec 21, 2008 (7:32 am)
Replying to: fastfred (Nov 22, 2008 4:16 pm) I have my eye on an '08 TL, and it comes with an "appearance pro. pkg." as well as pinstripes down each side. I talked to the dealer, and they had a lot of trouble explaining to me what the pro pkg was. I am assuming your "propac" is the same thing.   Do you know exactly what it is?

Replying to: al1515 (Dec 21, 2008 7:32 am) From my experience, "pro pack" (short for protection package) includes 4 mud guards, a trunk tray, and wheel locks. Dealers usually charge between 300 to 500 for this addon. The trunk tray and wheel locks I think are fairly standard between dealers, but some dealers will have painted mud guards whereas others will include generic black plastic mud guards. (The latter are cheaper, but I actually kinda like them better)   Not sure what the "appearance" pro pack is. But it is somewhat unusual that they cannot explain what is included with the car. You usually can ask what additionally installed accessories they have, and they better be able to explain exactly what is on the car.   Beware of any dealers who try to negotiate a price and THEN disclose that there are additional accessories on the car than when you first negotiated (at an additional cost, of course). Sometimes, they'll say one thing over the phone and then reveal the other accessories when you actually go into the dealership.

Replying to: al1515 (Dec 21, 2008 7:32 am) These items are dealer installed options - AKA additional dealer markup. I got the Acura mudflaps thrown-in on my deal. I would teld the dealer I was not interested and have them taken off. A roll of tape is cheap and would not take an hour to install.
