this is not a flame on Acura. I have an 07 MDX that I love. but let me say this, I recently bought a Porsche and have a whole new appreciation for driving. I would serioulsy suggest that ANY of you who are looking at a new TL go test drive a boxster, cayman, 911, or even a BMW go drive a 3 series. you could easily pick up a used 3 series for less than what you will pay ona new TL and the car will drive so much better. even as much as I love my MDX for the utility that it has - if I was in the market for a four door sedan - i'd buy soemthing more sporty like a 3 series. i just bough a boxster and it is the MOST FUN CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. if you have to have back seasts... great. but if you can spare the back setas -0 listen to me. go test drive one. even a certified used one. mine was not brand new, it was used. and it is so freakin amazing I can't believe it. this is not a flame on the TL. nice car, but if you haven't driven a sportier car than you are missing out. the car market is sucking big time and you can get into a car that you would have never thought you could have. screw buying a new TL. you coudl go buy a two year old 3 series, 5 seris, boxster, cayman - you name it. lowball the hell out of people and eventually someone will say yes and you will have a way nicer car. you can't go wrong with a Tl -it's a great car, but it wil NEVER NEVER NEVER had the feel/handling of a Porsche or BMW. sorry.. i own both - so I'm not bashing, just giving you all a real honest opinion. i love both cars for diferent reasons. if you want to DRIVE and have FUN - it's not even close.

Replying to: mjf70 (Nov 17, 2008 5:58 am)  $530 per w/tax (10% in Jersey). I do think over the next couple of months you'll be able to pick up a tech for around $500-515 or so. If you can wait, you'll save. If you can't, and I couldn't, get the car and start enjoying it. you won't be disappointed. I got mine at Precision Acura in Lawrenceville, NJ. Great place but remember, they're still car salesman. you gotta work for it.

Replying to: mjf70 (Nov 17, 2008 5:58 am) 36months, 12k miles 1408 fees .0021 60 residual 679 per month Selling price-MSRP (They wont come down) Acura got to be out of their minds for a car that competes with the ES350 and G35. I can lease a GS 350 for less than this. |

does anyone know the money factor for the 08 tl

I picked up my 09 base yesterday. Took the new money factor of .0021 at $100 under invoice. Price - $32795 $595 acquisition fee $819 drive off (first + DMV = no cap reduction) 3 yrs (12k miles) at $411.25/month ($445 with CA tax) I got home and noticed a ding on the trunk lid - called and they said they'd fix it. Today the internet manager called to say that the special MF was only for the Tech and that it needed to be changed to .0251 Adding $11 in after tax dollars to the payment. When can you come in and sign the new papers? I asked them to adjust the purchase price so that the payment stays the same, or if it has to go up then throw in the BS oil changes/tire rotation for the extent of the lease they tried to sell me or the scratch and dent policy. He said no. I said I'd drop off the keys when i could (i worked 5AM until 8pm today and will do the same all week). He told me that I would be driving the car without a contract. Huh? What did i sign yesterday? What was all the DMV and transfer of title paperwork i have? I asked to speak with the GM and left a message. We'll see how it plays out. |
