I think I got one of the best prices listed here; however, I only got the standard floor mats and wheel locks free. It would have been nice to get all-season floormats, a trunk tray, and/or a cargo net for free, but I would rather get a good price than have some things thrown into the deal that probably aren't worth 10% of their retail value. I tried to wheel and deal with Pohanka in Fairfax, where I live, a couple of times, but they simply aren't willing to give customers a good price. I think being the largest Acura dealership in the world has gone to their heads. I definitely would recommend Chevy Chase Acura. Also, they give you free car washes M-F, which is nice.
Good luck!
At any rate, good luck to you.
consider some TL pricing:
Inskip Acura (inskipacura.com) in RI is advertising '05 TLs for below invoice, more than 500 below w/ navi and more than 700 below w/o navi (no other details available). The modifications from the 05 to 06 TL weren't nearly as dramatic as the TSX
I am still thrilled with mine.

I purchased a TSX (auto, w/o nav) from Inskip Acura in Rhode Island for the following:
$26,767 (car price, including destination charge, all season floor mats, wheel locks, splash guards and touch-up paint)
$95 processing fee
$1,873 RI tax
Total: $28,735
I forget the exact cost of Title/Tags in Rhode Island; shouldn't be more than $100. I financed using a loan from a local credit union at 5.34% apr.
I think I paid a few hundred dollars more than some of the others on this board, but (1) I love the car and (2) I'm positive that I would have paid even more if I had gone into the dealership just relying on the Edmunds.com TMV price ($27,723??? Are they crazy???). So thanks again!
Thanks for the post - I'm Boston area and the pricing will help me!
anyhow, went by the good ole Acura dealer to see about driving a 2006 6MT (none here, none ordered) want an automatic? I said "I am disinclined to acquiese to your request"--Means no. Guess the movie...
Anyhow, ordered a 6MT silver Non Navi, 3 weeks dealer switch so actually comes straight to new dealer transit.
I can either trade or sell car myself as they made a buy bid (lingo for robbing you) for $20,000 even for pristine, meteor silver, quartz 2004 6MT with 21k miles.
I have not had it long (used late last year) and paid not much more for it privately. Now, this was with a firm $26,650 on the new one with tint and splash guards and includes the $100 thanks for writing us a check fee (doc).
Actually, I am too busy now to sell the car for the few hundred extra I may get so will most likely drive around, empty the tank and wait on the new arrival with no pain.
Car number 5 acura from this dealer in 5 years--yes I am a quack.
I have heard nothing of a 900 FTD $$. That would shock me but stranger things have happened. The $26,650 was quoted and locked in with no effort on my part other than I need a $500 over deal-fair? Done. Makes me think money left on the table. They acted like me selling my 04 would not bother them. Most likely since a stick they do not really want. An automatic would sell quickly and for more money regardless of same initial cost.
Every one is stickless with only a few exceptions. look around lots of stick talk but few actually around less than 10%. Minority and now nearly threatened species.
Many thanks.
Any input would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Any recommended dealer(s)?
Was considering the TL but am now taking a closer look at the TSX.
If anyone has driven both and decided on the TSX instead, I would like to hear your thoughts.
There are a few factors to consider, but you can't sort them out without driving the cars. I will probably get a TSX rather than a TL. Reasons - I think the TSX is a bit more fun to drive and I don't need the slightly extra space the TL provides (except in the trunk where the TSX allows me a fold down rear seat). I see the TL more as a luxury sedan that is also sporty rather than the TSX -a sport sedan with great amenities. Also, I think it's hard to justify the extra cost of the TL for what you get - look at the Accord EX 6cyl (man or auto) and it costs about the same as the TSX, butthas the room, and a lot of the luxury of the TL, but for thousands less. The exgine is great - it beats the TSX and competes against the TL, and it runs on regular.
Does this sound like a price I should latch on to? Thanks for any info. you can send my way.
I still say there's gotta be some under the table money Honda is giving the dealers to make such prices possible.
Good luck, and congratulations of your purshase! Keep us posted.
Well lets see... the TL has more HP, more torque, a longer warranty, SportShift, better tires, DVD sound system, Xenons, tire pressure monitoring system, Hands Free Link, passenger power seat, driver recognition memory settings, free roadside assistance, carbon fiber trim, auto dimming gauges, mirrors that tilt down when reversing, and of course...MUCH better looks. Sure you need premium fuel, so that adds what $20 a month to your budget? And although the rear seat does not fold down there is a passthrough. Who's gonna put lumber etc. in a car with leather interior anyway?
I too looked at the Accord EXV6 before buying a TL. I think the Accord's hurting in the styling department. They need restyle quick - I do like the Sports4 concept that the new Accord might emulate.
The TSX's restyle is great. This car definitely needs to be bought with the 6MT so it can be fully appreciated.
