This car ROCKS! by ozzynyc1

I got the car from Plaza Automall in Crooklyn. The sales folks and manager are decent people, and believe me i know most large dealers in Brookyn.
 
Toyota, Nissan and others especially in Bay Ridge are crooks. Even Nissan of Red Bank in NJ are the among the worst crooks, and that's not even Brooklyn any more. Staten Island dealeships are among the worst (don't even think of going to Honda or Nissan of Staten Island, they'll rip you off in a minute). You've been warned.
 
Plaza Mall Acura guys are decent, if they say they got the car, then they have it. It was a TL with Tech, 15K miles, 36 months, total ouf of pocket $1500 (but remember that Acura paid another $1500 loyalty).....They charged taxes up front so the Acura covered my taxes, and i wound up with $478 a month (tax not really included, but i don't care)...There was no way to do a deal at $478 w/ tax, and 0 out of pocket.......
 
The car is freaking sweet...It drives much softer than my '05 TL, it felt like you sitting on rocks in the back in '05 model, it's also more responsive. The tech package is worth every penny, even if it would cost an extra $1k i would still get it!!! Honda thought of every detail in this car. Grab it, you won't regret it..

Does anyone have the April 2009 money factor (super preferred tier) for the TL? I'm planning on a 36 month lease on the FWD tech package. Thanks!

Thank you alliecat1. Taking delivery on Monday - FWD w/Tech. Can't wait! Still need to settle on a color though. Have it narrowed down to PMM, Palladium, Black, Grigio, or Borealis Blue...decisions, decisions...

I too am having a hard time picking a color. Had black...several cars, never again, silver or white are my choices right now. The light blue looks horrible in my opinion...kind of a weak baby blue. Grigio has a hint of green in it. Polished metal would be my probably 3rd choice. But if you like maintaining a paint job then go for the black but EVERY scratch will show. Also, down the road for resale value your "staple" colors will sell better--white, silver, grey, black.
 
Just my .02 cents for you.

And the winner is... Grigio with Ebony interior. The dealer (Norris Acura - Ellicott City MD) happened to have all the ones I was interested in lined up on the lot, so it was easy to stand back and compare. Borealis was way too blue - old ladies only need apply. The black is too flat, and my wife's flat black MDX shows every scratch, so that was out. I liked the ebony interior - it always looks clean no matter what my kids do in the car (they're 10 and 12) - which helped to eliminate the Palladium and PMM. Both are really sharp colors, but the dark interior is very visible in the car, which overpowered the silver and light gray exteriors (window tinting could help). Also, the PMM was lighter gray than my Volvo, which is already a mid-line gray. So it was an easy decision for me to go with the Grigio. Funny, my wife swears the Grigio looked more straight "charcoal gray" but the PMM had a hint of blue in it. Guess it may be the lighting when you look at them, or what you had for lunch. We were outside on a partly cloudy day. Either way, it's a solid roundup of colors to choose from. Lucky to have the problem. Took delivery this afternoon and LOVE it. It's supposed to rain the next two days so I guess I'll leave it in the garage and wait to return the off-lease Volvo after the weather clears up.
 
Thanks all to the posts in this group and specifically replies to my messages.
 
Now a proud poppa of a 09 TL FWD w/Tech Package, Grigio w/Ebony
 
If you're buying in the Baltimore, Hartford, Frederick, or Montgomery areas of central Maryland, I can't recommend Norris Accura more highly (Route 40 off of I-29 at the I-70 interchange). This is our third Acura, second from Norris, and it's been top-knotch in every way. Call and ask for the internet group guys - If you did your homework ahead of time they'll get you to your price. If you're going out to Frankel, from Owings Mills, Pikesville or Towson, it's only and extra 2-5 miles to Norris and well worth the experiene.
 
Keep up the good work and thanks again.

Welcome bluevaliant. You definitely should have the dealer spell out exactly what is included in the amount that is due at lease signing before getting to the point of looking at the contract. I always advise consumers to put as little money as possible down when leasing. Those who make large down payments risk losing part or all if them if their vehicle is totaled in an accndent or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be higher, it is much saver to go with a zero down lease.
 
Dealers in New Jersey have to add sales tax to cars' monthly payments, but it is impossible for me to know whether this has already been done on the $425 payment that you were quoted. Make sure to find out if it already includes sales tax before proceeding.
