Happy Thanksgiving, all. I received a quote today a 2009 TL Tech. Based on a $39,445 MSRP, selling price $37,868; money factor of .00211 and residual of 61%. 12,000 miles for 36 months; Upfronts are $1,688 (doc fees are $599) including first months payment. Total payment is $623/mo including tax.
I know this is high, but I was wondering if there was any play in these figures. I am sending this from my pda so I can't tell what invoice is an whether the selling price of $39,445 is a decent price, so any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hope its not too late, but you can do better. Just rec'd a quote from a dealer that I had been dealing with. Offered 36500 for the TL w/TECH. I really do think that if I counter offered 36000, he would do it. Personally I am holding off until Jan/Feb to see if they start getting dealer cash back. The Acura manager mentioned that there was no cash back yet. But, by the way he said it, could be coming soon.

For a TL AWD TECH-
One dealer offered me $500 off sticker another $1000, then I told another dealer that I am willing to bargain from invoice, he told me that this is not the car for me.
I am just laughing to myself, no way on earth I am going to fork over 42K for a TL, I would rather bite the bullet and get a left over GS 350 for under invoice.

Is this a good deal? 36 months, 12K, $700 due at signing, $540 per month (this is rolling in two remaining payments of $626 from my current lease)? I have 2 dealers, and both quoted this same exact deal.

Don't sound bad, but two questions. Is old lease with Honda? If so, I wouldn't be paying it. And, do you want the car now? Unless dropping down to some big incentives come out after the first, I can't imagine the TL/T coming down to $500 per until mid next year or so. But with two dealers quoting the same #s, there's your chance to play them both for $525-530. With Christmas coming, the end of the month comes early in December. Use it.

Hi ceg1. The best way to evaluate this deal is to look at the selling price that the lease payment is based upon. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without this number, it is difficult to tell how much of a dealer discount you are being given. Let us know what it is and I'm sure that either myself or another knowledgeable community member will be happy to tell you what they think.

Car_Man--The dealer said he is selling me the TL-Tech (with protection package) for $36,196.75 (plus rolling in $1252, which are my remaning two payments to Infiniti, for a total of $37,448.45 (+TTL). The dealer says MSRP for this car is $39,445 (+TTL).
Does this help? Am I getting a good deal? I really don't want to go back and forth between two dealers. This is the best deal that the closer dealer is going to give...I have asked..asked and asked again. Your thoughts are appreciated.

My current lease is with Infiniti. I don't need the car now--I could wait until Feb., when my current lease ends. However, unless the TL is going to get a better price in 2009, rolling in my two payments vs. keeping my current car and paying them myself is only really a $80 ding to me, so not major. Thoughts?

I'm thinking if you tell the dealer, because of the $$ you'll wait until Feb, he'll work it closer. Take the $1250 off the TL deal and you gotta save $35-40 per mo .And there's no way you'll get it now for that much. There's extra $ in there somewhere, maybe in the buy back for your car. So the dealer is going to want to sell you now. He knows if you wait, chances are it's not going to be for his benefit. I understand why you want it now, I should have waited too. But I couldn't, and I know I they'll be cheaper out there next year. So if you can't wait and won't mind knowing that 2-3 mo from now the deal might be $20-30 cheaper, do it. But if it'll bother you wait, and who knows maybe you'll be buying the AWD . If you buy it, drive by and honk the horn. Good luck.
