I've got the best deal so far in NJ on 09 MDX Tech is $39.5K including destination. (dealer charges $189 doc fee on top of that). After adding accessories: Sport RB, Roof Rails, Body Moulding, All season mat and possibly wheel locks (still bargaining on wheel locks), best I am getting is 40.5K.
If you think that we can get $38, 942, I can also join with you guys. I am planning to go to my dealer today(Precision acura, Princeon). Let me know asap. I can be reached at jpoojari@hotmail.com. Thanks
Klenj if you can join in, give us your email or send me email at sapconsultant2009@yahoo.com
Jpneedcar, Sending email and my contact, call me lets keep it towards bit later in the day.
I too have prices from Thomas and has contacted today for me to come in, the price you have on tech looks higher by $700. The $38, 942 for tech is on email and I am sure it can be negotitated for another $500 or so
We should target 38K inclusive of destination and doc fee for tech and I am targeting 35K for base, though currently open to tech also, lets see how much closer we can get
I have competitive offers from Plaza and another delaer near philly. I am going to call Daniel at Ramsey too and we can go for the best deal
I have sent you email and my phone. call me and we can coordinate
I just join this forum but had watch this price forum since last December.
Acura Ramsey offered my MDX base model for 33,995 plus 0.9% financing last December. No sure inclu. Destination or not. But they never want to provide prices for any other model over internet or phone to me. It's look like they still have best price so far in north NJ (?).
I had prices from DCH Monclair and not satisfy. They seams have the best service and keep touch with me. I am looking for Costco member price from them.
Their price as below: Incl Des. (not yet negociate----much have better price than these):
MDX BASE: 34821
MDX TECH: 39299
MDX TECH +DVD: 40790
I ask price Sport + DVD: 41,500 (they refused).
Let me know if you really get close to 38K for TECH or 40K for Sport.
Also looking for LPR 2.9 or less (?)
3 of us have connected in the group. with you it will make it 4.
I am also looking for APR of 2.9 or less. Would be making the calls to 2 dealers to see where we stand. Ramsey will be the 3rd dealer and I have had no contact initiated yet with them, since you are already in touch with them, perhaps you can talk to them again.
Better to get prices on all models as well as % discount on MSRP, that way it will help with anyone trying to add accessories. Target on 17.5% off MSRP as already we have 15% without negotiation
Also send me your contact details on sapconsultant2009@yahoo.com and we can connect
I'm also looking for a good deal on MDX base or tech. I would like to join in. I already emailed you my contact info.
Which part of NJ are you shopping at?
Thanks.
Keep me posted.
Secondly, can someone give their thoughts on Tech vs Sport? Trying to decide on whether the $1-2K difference is worth it? Besides the looks of the actual seats, is the quality or fit of the seat better on the Sport?
Thanks!
Think we already spoke yesterday, if you are not Jeff, then please resend email as I may have not received it yet.
Also Costco auto save may be really applicable on MSRP, not on the kind of pricing levels we already have, but it will not harm to add it to the toolkit
My experience here is a if a dealer is having more of Base Models inventory then that price is more attractive and if more tech models then that price is more attractive, so we should get prices for both
We have about 5-6 in the group now, lets see where we end up on Monday
we had similar experience at Paragon and Plaza, think it is very normal for them to make people come in all the way and try cheating them. Thinking of lodigng a complaint, this is really one fraud dealership
Just be watchful of these 2, they don't honor what they say, when you reach there after driving 100 miles
anyone else had same experience add to this thread so that some others can be saved from this trouble
I think i will be buying this one.
Can you tell me the dealership that you bought your Acura MDX? Is it a brand new 2009 model? Thanks.
The dealer incentive on the MDX ($2000) ends EOD today, and someone signing today can take advantage of the released numbers. Here's what we got
Credit score: 680 (no payment issues, just high credit lines)
Best deal (for 680+)
36 months - 2.9%
48 or 60 months - 3.9%
Both through Honda (Acura) Financial.
Happy hunting. THe difference allowed me to keep my payments the same and pick up a tech/entertainment instead of just tech.
I am still in the market for an 09 MDX Tech and would be interested in joining a buying group in NJ/NY.
09 Tech (38,400 without 760 Destination, without TTL, without $100 Doc Fee)
09 Sport (40,300 without 760 Destination, without TTL, without $100 Doc Fee)
Any able to better pricing in the Capital area? Pohanka won't give pricing over the phone or internet I'm not going to sweat over a couple of hundred bucks, but has anybody gotten better by >$500? Thanks!
FYI, apparently the $2000 March incentive is the same in April.
Yesterday, I have purchased 09 MDX Tech from Pohanka. One of the best buying experience ever I had, very professional, pricing was finalised over the phone and when we went there no hassel, no back and forth. All paper work and everything was done in just three hours. I would definitely recommed Pohanka to anyone who wants to buy Acura.
Due to the time crunch, we were not able to choose accessories. Pohanka offers 20% discounts on all accessories. Since I have heard that online we could get much better deal, can you recommend any good website to look for with better bargain prices. Thanks.
Took a risk driving 500 miles for the deal, but for $3k (minimum) difference over the Phoenix dealers, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. The price difference also caused me to change my decision to an MDX from an RX350. The reason I was going to go with the RX was the Phoenix dealers (Peoria and Tempe) wouldn't do a trade with the dealer in Tucson and wouldn't deal much on price and my current lease was expiring. The Tucson dealer tried very hard but couldn't get the color I wanted from those jokers. :P I do look forward to giving Chapman my service business however.
Good luck to all others looking for an MDX and thanks to those posters giving info on their deals. This information is priceless. :shades:
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
What was the pricing you received on the MDX Tech from Pohanka? Was that inclusive of Destination, TTL, Doc, etc? Thank you!
I want to get rid of my 2007 Element EX with 11,000 miles on it. I just dont like it for NYC although parking and Fuel is great. So i started looking at the pre-certs and runmmaging through the lot.
I then decided to look at the NEW MDX and fell in love when I test drove the vehicle, both sport and tech models.
I dont believe I will be buying it from Paragon though TBH. A few things happened like the bait and switch on trade in price. Then the salesman didnt call the next week as agreed to finish details of the trade in and cash down etc.
I guess the manager who said he needed to get rid of MDX cause his boss has too many forget to let his staff know. Too bad, I bought my Element there and returned for more abuse. I will no doubt be buying at least 2 more new vehicles in the future. But not from there. Thanks for the Ramsey tip.
Anybody need an Element in great condition
They said this may get the 2010 out sooner then too since they dont have as much inventory of the 2009 and once they sell them all will have to get the 2010 out sooner. I also dont know how true that could be cus I'd think the production schedule is set and not sped up or moved up sooner based on inventory of the current model year but also could be some truth.
I've seen the new model year come out as early as mid summer like late June early July and I'm sure for some its come even a little sooner but not this soon like April or May. speaking of which does anyone know anything about the 2010 MDX.
of course the dealership says they dont know anything about it and downplay it having any new worthwhile feature or anything cus they want to move the 2009.
Point here is, while I was originally mostly going to wait till next year late spring early summer more or less, I'm thinking the price then on an old 2010 before the 2011 comes out may not be as good for several reasons. plus overall its going to be a tad higher as each new model year is and obviously my trade in will worth less, so i can save a certain amount by buying this year instead of next i'm thinking. It will definately be less, its just a matter of much less.
Come next year I dont want to regret having gotten a 2009, if i can get the same type price on a 2010 just before the 2011 comes out next summer and if the 2010 actually has some new features worth waiting for. I dont think its supposed to have any redesign though it kind of needs it as while it was a good redesign from the last iteration, the new TL is way better and i'm hoping they do something like that to the MDX.
There also is a 2k dealer incentive off the agree to price right now so that is another reason to go for it now rather then next year.
I'm going to check through the thread, but what have ppl been getting on 09 Tech with Ent. lately? have prices been going back up a little like of course the dealer claims. I can get invoice plus the 2k off so that is prob about the best although the price I was quoted is not the 42,511 invoice price i see listed on Edmunds for an 09 Tech with Ent. so not sure if they actually started me higher then invoice and just claimed i was getting invoice before 2k off dealer incentive deal but bottom line of my quoted price is below invoice (just not 2k below)
My other concern is just that the vehicle has been sitting on the lot for almost a year outside in the elements in Phila area PA (4 seasons but point being cold winter and hot summer its been through) but i know that can't be avoided unless you get brand new model year and therefore pay top dollar and then put in garage but its still a factor that of course the snarky dealer laughed off.
In summary my main questions are:
1. Does anyone know anything about the 2010 MDX? anything woth waiting for?
2. Is this definately around the best time with inventory getting low where as come summer it will be even slimmer pickings with possibly nothing left and the 2010 out but only going for above invoice closer to msrp? personally I think even those are only going to sell for closer to invoice but I guess they will def go for more then the old leftover remaining 2009's but still how significantly more will the 2010 really sell for?
3. If now is around the best time for a 2009, is it definately significantly less then one would be able to get a 2010 around this time or later next year before the 2011 comes back? i know that depends on the economy and car sales etc. which personally i think will be starting to come back by then and I just want to regreat having not got basically the same car this year for significantly less then what it will be to get the 2010 at the end of the model year next year. But wanted to get ppls opinions cus maybe the dealer is just pressureing me to buy now rather then next year and really drumming out that its going to be a lot more next year to get a 2010 at the end of the model year then a 2009 now.
4. What are the best prices ppl have got 2009 Tech with Ent.?
If you had researched this forum people haven paying anywhere between 1000 to 3000 off invoice. The exact discount varies by region. Yes prices have gone up a bit since dearth of winter, partly because Acura has cut production in their Canadian plant.
Where did you find your lowest prices on MDX accessories online?
I thought spring summer was the time to buy suvs but yeah it seems winter was maybe the time cus such slow sales and also now inventory getting low. Well if a dealer will give me the type of prices they were doing a few months ago then i guess i should do it and not wait but I will hold out for the ultimate best deal and only do it if i can't pass it up.
Otherwise my current vehicle is much more interesting and rare on the road because there are only 2 model years that look like and i have the front windows tinted to match the back and 22" wheels and tires and all looking very nice with other accessories and touches. also a midsize suv. MDX is tons of them on the road and not sure what I am going to be able to do to differentiate it.
so yeah no rush, sounds like with price going up slightly (which personally i think is ridiculous cus youd think it would keep going down till the 2010 comes out and they get rid of all 2009)
I got a quote for 43,340 -2k dealer incentive off deal so 41,340 for Tech and Ent. in the color combo i want. They claimed its invoice minus the 2k but its not. and thats before taxes tags etc. and them attempting to rape me on accessories at full price until i look up invoice or good price on those though they do have a 25% off your most expensive accessory (prob running boards) then I have a possible trade in which they will low ball me on but i can get a friend that has a dealership to buy it from them (done this before) so i can still do with the dealer i buy from to save the taxes on my total.
but yeah its not looking good for right now so i wont force it. I'm just trying to get my #'s together and then give a bunch of nearby dealers the opportunity. if they go do it at my "can't pass it up" price great I'll go for it, if not, then i'm good with waiting till next year or whenever.
So while I see $42,511 is invoice for Tech & Ent. package. I've seen ppl getting Tech for 38,400 more or less so 1600 more for Ent. supposedly. I think an even 40k for 09 with tech + ent. is plenty reasonable to request. first dealer to offer me that and not play games with any other charges and match decent price on accessories is who i will go with.
In fact I'm sure i could do better cus i'm at 41,340 now with out any haggling really but again that isn't 2k dealer incentive off invoice so i know they can do better.40,511 would be so i think 40 even is not asking too much and I'm sure there are ppl that did even better then that on tech plus ent.
looks like a good deal and exactly the packages I'm looking for. Chevy Chase Maryland near DC? shouldn't be too much diff in the Phila. area, if anything should be less here. makes my 40k even request look a bit high but at least it validates that its not low.
I am just going to tell them to include everything and whatever they have to do and just not go a cent over 40 even. taxes tags everything , i'll tell them to just take off where they can and do what they have to do i dont care but not a cent over 40.
Then I just have to get good price on the accessories and my trade in (whic lowers the amount id be paying tax on)
Good luck!
I think the MDX Base is the best buy out there. If you want Nav, get a Blackberry cell phone. It has more features and you can update it anytime there is anything new.
They said this was the 3rd MDX they sold (bought it on 3rd weekend of March). And the MDX was selling better than their other cars....
The best I could get on an 09 Tech & Ent. was $41,340 plus $173 title dup fees.
I saw ppl got Tech plus Ent. for under 40k so I wasn't budging above 40. At this point I'm probably just going to wait for the 2010 and possibly consider other makes/models into the summer though probably best deals will be this time next year when the 2011's come out and one can get the 2010 for less. My time frame originally was really waiting till next year anyway I just figured I'd entertain the idea of doing it this year as I thought I may not be able to get as good of a deal next year this time on a 2010 even at the end of the model life with the 2011 pending as i could this year on the 09 with 2010 coming, for various reasons.
plus my current vehicle being worth less a year later.
At one point I even stupidly offered preliminary withing $500 of the one dealers best price at around 40,700 something and they still wouldn't do it. But now I wont even do that and wont do for a cent more then 40k even which again I know is good but I also know is doable and ppl have gotten lower.
I dont want to regret later having rushed into the 09 if i end up liking the 2010 better or there is some good new features and/or i can get just as good of a deal on a 2010 next year this time. but i thought the more likely scenario that the deal is better this year for various reasons plus from what i've seen of the 2010 (spy photos) nothing is changed other then the front grille (possible headlights but point being just front end) and feature wise the only thing i've heard is a possible v6 diesel option.
so that being said and especially if i dont like the new grill as ppl seem not to (though if its the same as the new TL's as ppl say, i'd have to look at a new TL again but from what i remember seeing one at a dealership the TL redesign looked great and nothing about the grill do i remember bothering me) then I may end up kicking myself i didn't just go with the 09 for a good price.
but its usually always better to wait and why pay more then what i set my limit at just to rush into an 09 if i dont have to. the Dealerships are playing up the low inventory now and thinking they can sell what they have left for higher then the low prices of the winter when sales were slow and they had more inventory. usually time to buy suv is spring summer and price is higher on them in the winter when they are of more use but somehow cus of the stupid inventory it seems like this year that worked opposite with ppl getting best prices during a slow winter and more inventory while now with not much left and sales picking up a bit in spring.
so oh well maybe i missed the boat on the best 09 mdx prices this year but ill wait.
but yeah I would be interested to know about teh NJ group buy deal if I can get an 09 Tech and Ent. for 40k or less.
