2013 and earlier-Acura MDX Prices Paid and Buying Experience

pwoo

What does everyone think about a used 2002 Acura MDX base w/o Nav or DVD with 26K for $26K.

In contrast, an '05 MDX base invoices at $33.5 which is only a $7.5K difference for a 2.5 year old car.

Thoughts?

You got a greate deal! Would you tell me which dealership you dealt with... Thanks.

I live in the Northern Virginia/DC metro area and I'm ready to buy an '05 MDX touring with navi and dvd but I've had a hard time getting dealers to quote me a price. I've read lots of messages where people have successfully obtained quotes over e-mail or the phone. Any advice would be appreciated. The two closest dealers are Pohanka and Radley.
Thanks.

I had very little luck getting any price quotes out of the DC area dealers (Pohanka, Radley, Rosenthal). I did, however, get a very good quote from Frankel Acura (just north of Baltimore) as a result of an internet quote request directly from their website. I would suggest a check of their on-line inventory first, though. Their quote to me stated that they had my car in stock ('05 Touring w/Nav, Steel Blue and Quartz), so maybe that's why the quote was so good ($500 over invoice was their initial contact with me).

Rosenthal did say in an e-mail that they would beat any local deal by $200. I also get the impression that Pohanka would compete pretty well with any of the dealers in and around DC.

When I checked on-line inventories at Pohanka and Rosenthal, they had 70 to 80 MDX's on-hand. With this level of inventory, I expect they would try hard to earn your business.

Good luck, and keep us posted.

Thanks for the advice. I did finally receive an e-mail quote from Rosenthal. Not near the $500 above invoice but something to start with.

i'm looking to buy an 05 touring mdx w/ navi and dvd package in the DENVER area
Does anyone have info on what the best price is and where it is? i'd appreciate any info
thanks!

Anyone have any dealings with Wayne NJ Acura? Got an internet quote for invoice + 500 (Touring MDX) but they said their invoice was $36,875. Many websites list invoice at 35600! What gives? Also anyone ever use Costco auto sales?

jsippolito

I just began the process of buying a base model MDX. I received an intial quote from Springfield Acura of $800 over invoice with "a little wiggle room" to work with. Obviously it's not his best offer.

Based on what I've read in this forum, I'm hoping to pay closer to $300 over invoice, without exceeding $500 over invoice.

Is that a reasonable expectation on my part?

Hi everybody. A lot of great information here. Anybody have any buying experiences on a 2005 MDX Touring w/Nav & DVD in the Phoenix area? I'm thinking about making a purchase and would love to now how applicable these prices are in Phoenix.

Thanks

The MSRP in Southern California for a 2005 MDX Touring with DVD and Navigation is around $44,939. What I paid surprised even those that are closest to me and had connections to dealerships. I was able to get my MDX (all taxes paid, dmv registration, and EXTENDED Warranty) for $900 above MSRP. Great Price for a nice SUV.

Hey everyone,
I'm looking to purchase a new 05 MDX Premium in about 2-3 months. Anybody have any experience with the dealers here in the Atlanta area? Any recommendations? Thanks.

Folks,
This is 2004 MDX base special AHFC lease plan ( it advertises on Honda/Acura manufacture website): 3 years lease. Payment is $399 + tax with $999 cap cost reduction, $2393 total due at lease. MSRP is $37,470. Actual net capitalized cost is $34,236.90 Lease end purchase is $23.980.90.
Anyone can tell me what is the money factor ?
A bay area dealer agrees to sale MDX base to me for $33,423, this should be able to pay less than $399 since the negotiate price is less than the example above, correct?
Is this a better deal than pay cash with money from my 5% mortgage loan?

mdx5

J,
i was able to get $200 below invoice in bay area N. California, but it has to be an in-stock model. With patient, $300 over invoice is doable.

ripnero

I was checking to see if you found any info out yet,
I am too looking for a 2005 MDX, I have only been to the cobb parkway dealership but did not ask about purchase or lease plans.

"i was able to get $200 below invoice in bay area N. California, but it has to be an in-stock model. With patient, $300 over invoice is doable. "

Can you share more info regarding this?
What model year and which dealer in Bay Area?

Thanks.

I was just quoted this by Nalley Acura in Atlanta, it looks like a terrible deal

42mos lease 15k a year $583.54 + tax with $1,040 + tax due at signing. This quote does not include any accessory items.

leoniv

I'm looking to buy not lease, but that offer seems a little on the high end. I've heard good stories from the MDX org site about Ed Voyles off of Hwy. 141 and they seem to have the most inventory of Base MDX's (more likely to deal?) so I'll probably try them first. I also read on the org site Acura Carland used to force it's customers to take their dealer "package" which included a bunch of add-ons. Don't know if they still do that or not.

$42,025 for a Sage Touring with NAV and DVD on Long Island. Includes Running boards ($575), tow hitch only for bike rack ($425), wheel locks and body side molding ($275). Includes destination charge of $570. Picking up on Saturday. Should be about $500 over invoice, but will verify when picked up.

2005 MDX Touring Nav and DVD

Washington, DC Area
Quoted Price: $40,254 (includes $570 destiniation but does not include tax, title, registration.)

edhryb

Seems too good to be true. Just about at invoice price. Costco lists invoice at $39,610 + $570 destination for a total of $40,180.

rgustafs

HOORAY! I am glad to know that it is such a great deal. I have worked hard to get a good deal. Now I just hope they give me as great a deal on my 93 Vigor GS. I'd rather trade than deal with the hassle of selling but I want a fair price.

Thanks!

alphawolf

mark,

Why have your experiences in Orlando been horrible? Can you tell me dealers to avoid?

You think if one isn't picky about the color combo it would be easier? I want an MDX Touring nav and Entertainment. I'm pretty open to color combinations and wish to lease for 36 months.

Any advise is appreciated.

regards,

Dean

mdx_bay_area

the information here is very helpful, thanks for all who posted. I bought a pearl white 05 touring mdx with nav for 38,500(including des. fee) in bay area yesterday. is it a good deal?

shaker58

550 with security and 1st payment only

touring with running boards and side molding
can I do any better??? ny lease so bank fee is 1095 and it's in payment so are 8.625% taxes

jiang

It can't be better ... I was looking at the exactly samething today (in NJ); the dealer said got be $1K above the invoice.

In your case, isn't below the invoice?

jiang

I stopped by an Acura dealer in central NJ today. They told me it would cost $1.5K above invoice for a 05 MDX Touring + NAV.

I believe people on this forum have mentioned there are dealers that offer a couple of hundred bucks above the invoice for a 05 MDX. Does any one know a dearler in NJ would have such an offer?

Many thanks!

shaker58

got a dealer to do much better also got a quote on the base model for 480 same options plus roof rack

miata007

Hello,
I am seeing people are paying near invoice for a new 05 MDX. Is it because a new model is coming out the end of this year or something? Does anyone have spy pics of it or sketch?

To all,
My best quote I got for a Touring (no Nav or Res)was $36,375 from a few northern NJ dealers. Got lucky and found Ramsey Acura willing to do $38,500 out the door for my Silver Touring ($35,882 before tax/tag/fees). Also got the 7 year 100,000 mile ($50 deduct) warranty for $1530. Ramsey is a great dealership, no hassle, no gimmicks, no pressure. I don't know if they'd do the deal again because the Internet salesman said he had to move cars! To all future buyers, be patient, be confident and be willing to walk out!
Oh, how I suffered without the X, I just don't know how I drove anything else! The X is an amazing ride.

shaker58

3/36 505 per month with refund sec 525 and 505 1 st payment upfront. 1095 bank fee and ny taxes included in payment. also got the running board in payment

I purchased a 05 MDX Nav&Dvd for $41,200 + Taxes/Reg 2wks ago.
price includes Running Boards & Rear spoiler(the larger color-matched one)
in Aspen white pearl. They had it in stock, which was a major factor. I took delivery 3days later, could have had it next day, but I was out of town. I feel it was an OK deal when you consider my time constraints.

dguptaofnj

I have been quoted a price of $34,125 for the Premium and $36,675 for the Touring Package, destination included. These are the Internet Pricing for 2005 Models.

Any comments whether these look good or bad ? Should I hold out for lower pricing on either of them ?

Thanks.

gulzar

I AM OFFFERED, 2005-MDX-BASE MODEL, FOR 33,995 AND TAXES AND FEES,
SO THE TOTAL COMES TO ABOUT 37,600 ( OUT OF THE DOOR ).
IS IT A GOOD OFFER?
ADVISE FOR ANY BETTER DEALS.

queenbee53

Hey all-

I too have been doing my homework to get the best deal on an 05MDX. I had a dealership quote me (through their Internet salesman) a base model and the Touring (no DVD or NAV). I was pleasantly surprised---the base model (MSRP $37,470; invoice $33,812) was quoted at $34,495 and the Touring model (MSRP $40, 295; invoice $36,355) was quoted at $37,000. I haven't even stepped in the dealership yet! From what I have read above, I feel this is a good point to start negotiating, and I am hopeful to get either one right around invoice. Hope this is helpful!

Depends on where you are. Can you tell us what city/state you're in?

Hi - are you in San Francisco bay area? Your deal looks good, who is the dealer as I am also looking at same combo - touring + nav. I am assuming taxes/registration fees are not included here. Thanks.

MDX Touring in MidwestLooking for an '05 Touring w/Out DVD or Navi. I live in Indianapolis but am willing to drive to Chicago for a good deal. The best deal I've found so far with a sticker of $40,295 is $38,000. Anyone found a better deal in the Indy/Chicago area ?

icantthink

QueenBee53 -- Which dealer are you dealing with? I am looking for a Touring Model with Nav as well.

thanks

icantthink

All,

I received a quote of $38,650 for a touring model with Nav. This was the first contact, so I'm sure there's room for movement.

Don't know if this includes destination charges. Looks like the Edmunds invoice price is $38,260.

I think I can get them close to invoice.

Is this a good deal, or can I do better?

oneohthree

Around how much would I have to pay if I lease a Acura Touring w/ Nav in North/Central NJ?

gulzar

I WAS OFFERED THIS PRICE ON MDX-PREMIUM IN NEW YORK CITY.

mdx4life

I bought base MDX with side step and roof rack about 2 weeks ago at Concord Acura. Initially I was quoted by Stevens Creek Acura: $33,311(including destination charge) for base ($500 under invoice every color except aspen white pearl) then I contacted Concord Acura which beat the quote by $150 and side step and roof for $1000 (installed). So my total was $34,161 (plus tax, fee). With tax it was a little over $37,000 out the door. I initially contacted 8 bay area dealers: Acura of concord and Stevens Creek Acura were quicker and more reasonable than other dealers.

I learnt a lot from all you folks in this board and finally pulled the trigger on a MDX Touring Lease in NJ. The MSRP was about $40,500 and the sellling price $36,750. I put down $999 to lower the monthly payments to $414.50 pre-tax. It is a 3/36K lease. Acura Lease Support on this SUV is pretty decent, I was getting similar quotes on the Toyota Highlander ( V6 AWD Ltd ) which are probably not quite at the same level as a SUV as the MDX Touring.

Thank you all in this board, this was my first lease.

Has anyone ever used BJ's auto buying service? I didn't know if was worth looking into since I am a member.

Paid $38,200 + TTL -- how'd I do?

innh

I have been looking in the southern NH/Boston area dealing with the internet managers and at the dealership. I'm getting different prices for options ie. roof rack for MDX 300 vs $545.00 trim package 239 vs $169. Also I can't find something under $34,500 yet the consumer reports package I paid for said that with a dealer holdback going on now the wholesale price for the premium is $32,700 and that is where I should start negotiating. Any comments. I have tried Acura of Boston who was suppose to give good deals?

mikej1543

I was out at North Hampton Acura (A/K/A Clair Acura North) in NH yesterday and they seem to be pretty aggresive. Quoting in the mid $400 range for a 3 year lease on an MDX with minimal down. They seem to be willing to deal.
