Also, a suggestion for buyers who have the ability to pay 100% cash, assuming you have good credit, you may want to take advantage of Honda's 2.9% rate right now (ends 31 July). It's easy to find savings accounts or CD's that outperform this rate... My savings account, for example, is earning 5.12%. By financing 50% of the car, I will save over $2,000 over the 36 month loan term. Never overlook the power of creative financing!
I had called a few dealers and received quotes over the phone and a couple of e-mails.
Here are the quotes, all for TL auto w/ NAV:
Tustin from two weeks ago was at 32,120
Downey they were @ invoice first then matched Tustin 32,120
Keys Acura 31,500
Tustin last night $31,120
I am very surprised at the prices above and I also checked on an MDX as another friend maybe interested in getting one and I received a quote of $3,500 below invoice. Yes that is correct $3,500 BELOW INVOICE for a MDX Navi/RES.
Wow. Seems like the dealers are very motivated in getting these vehicles off their lot in Southern California.
The only thing I couldn't get Tustin to match was the Acura Care extended warranty quote I received 8yrs/120k mi/zero ded for $1469
I guess we will have to get the Acura Care on-line. Any recommendations?

$45 for a doc fee is nice to see, too. :shades:
Congratulations ! thas a great deal ... Just curious how much was your out of door price with tax? I guess if your address is in orange county tax might be 7.75%.
Last night I received another quote from Acura 101 for TL/Nav for 39k (out of door). That price sounds to good to be true, but considering your sell it looks like dealers are going below invoice.

Once at dealership, I added chrome wheels for 900 bucks.
I feel happy with my price but since reading the forum in the last day or two I am sure you can do better.
Good luck
Where did you get your $31,200 price? did it include the propack?
Weir Canyon offered $31486, Norm Reeves Mission Viejo offered $31,495. (both these include destination and propack).
Looking forward to buying mine this weekend . . .
You need to consider taxes when you calculate your gain. If you assume a 40% effective tax rate (could be high depending on your income, etc.) a 5% Annual Yield on an investment turns into a 3% return; Still better than the 1.9% finance rate, but not as good as you are calculating.
I'd consider offering $1000 less, have him take it to his boss, and then accept whatever counter offer they give.
Just my 2 cents...
Good luck.

Is it correct to assume that out of state dealerships will give me a quote?
Tried to negotiate with the dealership here in town. They wouldn't even talk to me about any price for the TL w/o navi for a price under 31K (and this is without any options! etc.) HELP!
Thanks
Folks here are talking something more than that. I don't think you have to pay that much. Please post your best deals, be sure to mention dest. charge
You got a quote for TL with Nav for 29500 which includes destination charge? Thas unbelievable price
Includes destination, pro pack(wheel locks, trunk tray, mud guards) and dealer fees.
Special finance deal ends July 31.
Contact me if you are interested.
There is a $1000 Acura to dealer incentive going on right now. I'm taking advantage of this in my deal.
Springfield Acura in NJ is advertising it. But I got the same savings in Ohio.
www.springfieldacura.com Click on Vehicle Showroom and then click savings certificate.
Edmunds TMV...$33864 (Los Angeles)
Recent quotes...$30500 - $31000
How can they be so far off?
The best was when he started bragging about how buying a car from him entitled you to a free loaner, car washes and starbucks coffee everytime you come in for servicing. I responded so on one hand you're telling me that an Acura is one of the most reliable cars on the road but that I'll be at the dealership constantly bringing in my Acura for service??
I'm sooooo glad I found edmunds.com!!!
What was your out of door proce?
Thanks,
DgenX
Price (incl. destination) $31,495
Doc Fees $45
Tax $2,444.35
Lic $264
State Tire Fee $8.75
Mud Flap, Locks, Trunk Tray, Side Moulds, All-Season Mats, and an Ipod Connector too.
Also added 7 yr - 120k Warranty for another 1500 bucks ...
Got this great deal at Acura 101 West. The internet sales manager was extremely nice and got the deal without a lot of hassle.
I guess its a great deal.
Now looking for a cheap insurance agent ...

Thanks to these forums, especially the posts about the 1K unadvertised incentive, I got a great price.
I had 2 dealerships competing for my business and went with the one that I did the test drive with.
I'd suggest that people work towards an out-the-door price rather than focus on the invoice as I got one dealer to a lower invoice price than the other, but his OTD was still $500 higher.
The invoice price we worked from was 31,205.
Anyways, i haven't got the accessories installed yet, they are going to call me.
I got an horrible average of 12 mpg on new car while going home last night, is that normal? I got 13 this morning while going to work, bit worried about it.
any comments?
Thanks.
31,700 includes
Destination
Pro Pack(Mud guards, Wheel Locks, Trunk Tray)
Dealer Fees
Good on any IN STOCK vehicle. They also have a service where they will either bring the car to you or pick you up and bring you back to their dealership. Very professional dealership!
Jeffrey Acura
Detroit, MI
Ask for Internet Manager and say you want the "Cleveland Price"
The $1000 Acura to dealer incentive ends today so act fast.
If you're in Cleveland, Columbus, Toledo, Ohio, Michigan... you won't be able to beat this price. Believe me I tried...
Good Luck!
What are the best price quotes you've received thus far, for either the AT NAV or Non-NAV TL..include destination charge please.
Thanks,

Acura of Boston is going 500 below invoice if you buy by today.
Did you get a chance to call Jeffrey Acura for the 31,700 deal? Did they have the combination you were looking for? The current finance deal ends tonight but I think if you start the process Acura will still honor the financing deal for a few days to give you time to complete the paperwork. They said a few others also called and took advantge of the deal. I just hope a few of them were also from Cleveland. Would like nothing better than to brag to the Cleveland dealers how we got a great price.
Anyways... Hope everything worked out for you.
And for those who do not know what I'm talking about.
Well if you live in Northern\Central Ohio then you probably already know that the local dealers are not willing to make any deals. BUT. I found that Jeffrey Acura in Detroit would sell me any in stock Acura TL/NAVI for 31,700. This includes Destination, Pro Pack(wheel locks, mud guards and trunk tray) and their dealer fee. All you pay is Tax, title and registration beyond that. They will even drop off the car to you or pick you up and take you back to the dealership.
If you want to take advantage of this give them a call and ask to speak to the internet manager and tell him that you want the "Cleveland Price of 31,700".
I can't wait to show my local dealer that the deal he said would vanish before my very eyes is right here in front of his!!! He wanted to charge me Invoice(32,800) plus 400 BEFORE adding the price of the protection package.
Good luck everybody!
Now proud owner of a 2006 Acura TL/NAVI Black on Black!
Courtesy Acura $33000 plus TTL also includes pro pack.
Told them I might as well wait for the 07's, but they wouldn't budge off their price. Not even close to the recent deals posted in Ohio and So Cal.
Anyone else researched other Acura dealers in Florida?
