TL AWD with Tech package, includes dest'n charge, MSRP $44,080
Dealer add ons (Vin etching, tinting, wheel lug locks, All weather mats) $399
Discounts, total, $2,735 to get down to invoice
Acura cash to dealer, $1,500
Conquest rebate (applied as a down payment) $1,500
Ignoring the slight negative tax impact of applying the conquest rebate as a down payment (after the trade in), total discounts = $5,735
Trade in on my 2009 Infiniti G37 was right on the money (higher than black book trade in, right on with Kelly blue book & Edmunds when tax impact considered). Balance financed at .9%.
All in all I couldn't be happier with the deal (probably left a few hundred on the table vis a vis a "max" deal but getting it for close to $3k under invoice is good in my book). More importantly, wife is happy! One of the most pleasant negotiations in my 40+ years of buying cars.
Thank you.
This is Chicago market.
I have seen several dealers with 12's left over.
How much can I expect to pay for a base or one with tech package?
Thanks for any input.

What do you guys think. Should I pull the trigger.
Any help is greatly appreciated..
My sister just bought a '13 TL SH AWD Tech Advance (I think the MSRP was north of $46K). IIRC, she bought it for right around $40K (but she owns a Jag).
That was about 5 months ago, though. I think they also had a $2K dealer incentive at the time, too.
Not sure how much of that is still valid now. Try truecar.com or Edmunds TMV here to see if they list the incentives.
Price Of the Car is $28,500 with no destination fees
Base TL $30,500 (includes destination only)
TL w/ tech $33,700 (includes destination)
Note: I qualify for the $1500 off since I previously owned a 2008 TL. Prices above include that discount.
How much lower can I get for the TL w/ tech? I think the tech package is a rip off, it's just that I want the rearview camera.
Your input and help is appreciated. I live in SF and willing to travel a 60 miles radius.
Paid $31,722 w/ destination. Dealership threw in 6 oil changes and we qualified for the $1500 Loyalty discount, so was about $30,222 before tax and license fees. We bought the car at Hendrick Acura in Concord CA.
Am I leaving much on the table ?
What was the sales price, and what add'l fees were included? thx
And thanks to you CarMan - I have been a fan for a long time and the informatino you provide is so helpful to so many people!
On the other hand, if there aren't that many 2013 TLs left, dealers might not be that willing to negotiate further.
Perhaps it will be better to wait till the TLX comes out for the fire sale prices on the TLs, most likely only 2014s left by then.
What was the situation with the RLs when the RLX came out?
I live in Northern Virginia.
Thanks.
As such, unless you're looking at some sort of demo, or a new unit with a lot of demo miles on it, a leftover unit, etc, the amount a dealer pays for a car is always the same, regardless of time of month, quarter, year.
Not sure what Acura will do when they bring out the 2015 TL(x). There might be some trunk money available on the 14s at that time. But, that's hard to predict, as Acura is always tight lipped about new models and don't usually release info until very shortly before the new models hit the lots. That means fewer previous model leftovers.
Depends on what you want. The current models are still very good cars. We're not sure what the '15s will be, other than they'll probably cost more and will be based on the current Accord.
Good luck.
On the TL, when you can save nearly $6000 on some models, there's no reason to wait any longer unless you just aren't ready for other reasons. This year I've seen several people wait and wait and wait longer and now getting closer to "maybe buying", the 2013 TL's they wanted were sold long ago.
You have to strike the balance of incentives and inventory, and not wait forever and ever. On a car like the TL, Acura builds just enough to sell, not over and above so much that there are a glut of extras. Take advantage...but make sure to do it early enough a car actually exists.
The TL is a lot of car, and great performance, for the dollar. Already right now at the end of September, there are next to no 2013 TL's left thanks to the programs, other than a few AWD cars.
manufacturer. If you're in the TL, the time to buy is when you find one you like....especially now since the '13 incentives are strong (if you can find a '13). '14 incentives will be harder to come by, especially given it will in all likelihood be a short model year with the new design on the horizon.
1 - dealer may need to move a few units to get to volume goals and potentially, selling a car for a few thousand below cost could net them a big rebate.
2 - TL replacement is coming next year and once consumers get a whiff of the latest and greatest, there will be deals.

But, they're a good dealer. It could be because they don't mess around in selling cars....they don't practice those traits that car buyers tend to loath. They give good deals and have a good service dept.
I know I saw maybe 6 MDXs and about the same amount of ILXs on their l saw last night in passing. I saw two RLXs and maybe 6-8 TLs on their lot (couldn't tell what they had in the showroom as I was just glancing over while waiting at a red light in front of the dealership).
They always seem to have that tight inventory, though.
Be aware that all V-6 hondas aren't the same.
I know that there's a $3,250 dealer incentive available. Should that be taken into consideration?
The MSRP is $40,535. The invoice is listed as $38,359.
I'm in southern california
Do you like the color(s)? 2013 TL Tech's are extremely thin and few & far between.
got a new 13 TL with sh and tech for 37900 in august.The all wheel drive has been great during this bad winter.Traded a 07 TL/s type when my lease is up I want the new one.
