rdx shopper? yes
simple math, the msrp and retail pricing is way over what they are being offered at right now. two months ago I could have barely gotten an RDX w/o tech for 31,500 and now you can get a tech for that.
I cannot imagine if, or how much, it can go lower. Acura has historically rarely offered cash back deals like this, and to think it could go lower is hard to fathom. Even with the economy and car market in the tank, Japanese auto makers don't bargain like the American boys do. They will probably stop production and just try to unload what they have, so the pickings might get slim.
Thanks

Good luck!
thanks!
Thank you!
My local dealer said they would sell for invoice less the $2.5K incentive - which for them came to @$32.5K (includes destination) but not TTL. Sounds like there is another $1K or so they have to work with at least.
Do you think that the Acura incentives will remain for the 2009's? Lastly, given the 2010's are not that far away - is it worth waiting? My dealer of course is suggesting there won't be incentives initially on the 2010's (not sure historically if that's true but makes sense) and that the 2010's won't hit until fall. Now other posts indicate that the 2009's got to some dealers in June, 2008 (seems early but.....)
Thanks for any help/hints.
Without tech my best offer was 28,800.
The Mfg to Dealer $2500 rebate had been extended to 03/02/09 ... don't know if it will be extended again or perhaps even increased (though 2009 stock is dwindling).
said his dealership hasn't received a new RDX in over a month, and expects no more than 1 or 2 a month going forward, if that. Acura stopped pumping them out. He has 5 on his lot right now.
no more APR financing deals, for some reason Acura decided to take them off the table, pretty dumb move to me when all other automakers have 0% for a half decade
$2500 rebate still in effect
If you want an RDX, might want to get serious before they dry up... 2010's probably won't hit floors till end of summer as usual, Aug or Sept
can u provide some details about the dealer so I can get the deal...Thank u..
The rebate has been extended to end of March. However, as others noted, the 2009 selection is getting pretty slim. BTW, the 2010 will have the TL/MDX style grille (common Acura face across product line) which I am not a big fan of ... yet. It will make its debut this March at the NY International Auto show.
I visited Pleasanton Acura, but they were playing games. They were getting closer in price ($32+k), but I'd still have to drive ~30 miles (again) to have the "privilege" of paying them more for the same vehicle and then drive another 30 miles to go home. I suppose you'd have to live or work in Pleasanton to understand it--I certainly didn't.
The sales manager at Hopkins Acura wanted $35k. I laughed when he gave me that quote. Redwood City and Hopkins Acura must be even more "special" than Pleasanton. I'm sure people all over the state buy their Acuras at Hopkins so they can score the $3k "Hopkins Acura" license plate holder.
I was dressed in a pair of torn jeans with a t-shirt so I suppose the sales manager could have thought that I was some kid wanting a test drive and wasting his and his sales guy's time. I didn't get the test drive as the sales person I spoke with was out on another test drive. I knew it was a lost cause so I just left.
Could you give me some advice on where to get the 2009 New Acura RDX with tech package for around $31000? I don't mind paying up to $31,500. The phoenix area dealers are quoting $33, 500 which I think is over what most are paying. Any advice? Would Las Vegas or Southern California be better? Any other dealers in AZ? Any advice appreciated!
can you guys help me to buy a base acura in houston
$29,723.72 Premium Package**
$32,749.82 Technology Package**
Price includes destination charges. I am willing to travel to san antonio, austin or dallas if I can get a better price. Do you think this is a fair price or should I look around
Thanks
I bought an RDX with Tech Pkg from Frank Leta in St. Louis, MO for $32,661.00. This includes administrative fee ($99.00). I still need to pay the state taxes. I paid $876.00 extra for the roof rack, splash guards, and bumper applique. Dealer installed Bodyside Molding free of charge. The vehicle has to be brought from another dealer in Tennesse. I did't pay any extra charge for that. Another dealer also quoted somewhat similar price. I went with Frank Leta, because of their senior sales consultant Greg. He and other staff were very professional, courteous and pleasant to deal with. This is an important aspect for me. Thank you.
They also offered a non-Tech for $27k. I'm not sure if that was for the last 2008 on their lot (sold I believe), but I'm sure it wouldn't be much different for a 2009.
I don't think I can post the salesperson's name in the forums. It's the ONLY internet sales person at Sunnyvale Acura so it's not a secret. You could call up the dealership and ask for the Internet salesperson. I used the service here on Edmunds.com to get quotes from local dealers and he responded.
I like the RDX. I had a 1998 Nissan Pathfinder before and I swore that I'd never get another SUV, but my lifestyle has changed where I needed the extra utility. My first test drive was a real eye-opener. I was coming off a 2004 Honda Accord V6 and didn't like the ride in the RDX. I knew that it was sporty, but I was still expecting the wallowing handling of a SUV. My 2nd test drive was better and I was sold after my 3rd test drive. I think test driving the Audi A4 made me appreciate the handling of the RDX.
The handling of the RDX is phenomenal, but I really don't know how to describe it. You have to experience it to understand. I've been playing around with the SH-AWD and it's pretty amazing, but it's also downright scary since you have to commit to the turn by giving it gas. You don't think you're going to be able to make the turn, but the RDX sticks and carves around the corner. I used it on a couple occasions where I ran into a sharper than expected turn on CA-1. Instead of braking which is my normal response, I turned the wheel and stepped on the gas pedal.
I was worried about long drives with the sports suspension, but I finished a 700+ mile trip and wasn't beat-up like I thought I'd be. The seats are very comfortable and hold you firm. The perforation also keeps your back and rear cooler. The only thing is that the suspension is taught so whatever you have in the rear is going to be jumping around. I'm looking at hitches for my mountain bikes.
The fuel economy seems fair considering the size of the vehicle. I'm getting 20+ mpg going up and down the Santa Cruz mountains, foothills, Northern California mountains, coast, South Bay, and SF.
I wanted to get the roof-rack, but my dealer wanted ~$600 for it alone after a discount so I skipped it! They blamed it on the installation labor. I also paid for the side molding. ..Grrrrr..
I know what you're saying about having a professional, courteous salesperson to deal with. When a person is dropping >$30k, the salesperson shouldn't believe that he's doing you a favor by talking to you. It's a VERY different economy out there and the people with the $$$ are firmly in control now.
The Audi dealership folks I dealt with seem like they're getting desperate. They're still emailing me with deals (200+ cars on their lot) even after I told them I bought the RDX.
29500 + 1770 (6% PA tax) + 230 tags/fees = $31,500 OTD.
No trade-in. Dealer also arranged finance at 4.9% for 48 months.
That's with $4k down, including taxes, license, first month's payment, etc.
Based on $33.3k price (including destination fee), plus $595 acquisition fee is capitalized, .00215 money factor and 47% residual. Need to verify, but Acura MAY be throwing $1500 in towards the down as we're turning in a current TSX lease, which would make my actual contribution to down payment $2500.
Any thoughts on this? The sales price seems a bit high compared to folks saying that they're coming in <$32k as sale price...
If my homemade spreadsheet is correct, if the sale price was right at $32k, my monthly would be about $472/month with the same cash.
Also offered a non-tech package at $30.5k, same lease deal at $456/month and 4k down.
$33.3 is high, read back through the pages and you will find much less, some even near $31.5
$4k down is also high IMHO
Since I've found this thread ot be useful, I thought I would post our own purchase experience here.
RDX Tech purchased from Acura Columbus on 4/28
Negotiated price: $34950 - $2500 dealer cash = $32450 +ttl and doc fee
We were coming off an MDX lease and had another $1500 loyalty coupon from Acura, making our final price $30950 + ttl and doc fee, or $33.3OTD.
We also purchased the roof rack, which was $550 + tax installed.
That's with $4k down, including taxes, license, first month's payment, etc.
Thanks
Are you saying 32,400 after the $2500 cash back (that my dealer is pretending doesn't exist). I assume yes. I've got another $1500 loyalty from Acura lined up, and I am assuming that you're not including that in the price.
The lack of extended warranties was one of the big things that turned me away from buying an A4 Avant.
