Find Acura Dealers in New Albany, Indiana

Yes, this is very true. I will say to all pre-owned buyers that the longer you can wait the better. Regretfully, we needed a car ASAP. I am not a "CPO" fan by no means! However, in our area a used new body TSX from Private Party is rare. What is even more rare is one that has the right color, tech pkg and so on. There are plenty of '09-'10 lease turn-ins out there that become CPO vehicles. Since there were 5 matches accessible to us it allowed us to play that card when we were at the dealer. So if you want a CPO car, know there are plenty to choose from. Some are not well driven (because they are lease vehicles) so make sure you check for scratches/dents in person. Final word from our experience is that most of these CPO cars will sale for around the same thing. It is just a matter of who will go that few extra hundred off and your patience of course. If you get lucky and find that private party selling their 2 year old car and it checks out, jump on it.

Hi, I am new to these forums. I just landed a job that would require me to drive to work since there are no trains or buses within a 8 mile radius. I have gone in to the dealership to look at the TSX and absolutely love it. I have no experience with negotiating with a dealer and was hoping someone can give me advice. The dealer closest to me is Plaza Acura on Nostrand Ave. For those in NYC, what are some deals you got for the TSX (AUTO, W/O TECH PACKAGE)? Also I've driven my dad's 2005 Honda Accord EX-L from time to time. What are some benefits the TSX has over the Accord? Thank you in advance.

Just drove back in the NEW '11 RDX with TECH Palladium Metallic with Ebony interior Our lease deal: MSRP $36.580.00 Invoice: $34,397 Cap Cost $33,800.00 ($597.00 BELOW INVOICE) Adjusted Cap Cost $34,395 (Includes $595.00 Acquisiton fee) 12K/yr 56% Residual .00116 MF ZERO DOWN Total Driveoff: $512.14 (DMV Fees and Documentation Fee) MONTHLY PAYMENT = $450.06 PLUS CALI 9.75% taxes ($43.88) = $493.94 ALL IN Got the deal done at Acura 101 West (aka Calabasas Acura) Calabasas California GOOD LUCK TO ALL!! (The price took a little while to "grind" out!!) :)

lyg....got to understand something about the prices paid posts at Edmunds. Sometimes, they contain trade-ins as part of the deal, where the dealer can discount the new car more by undervaluing their trade. Other dealers charge high back end fees (like the ones seen when finishing the deal in the Finance Office) to make up margin dollars given up at the negotiation table. Others have dealer installed options, extended warranty contracts, etc on their new cars, which carry very high margins, allowing the dealer to show a low purchase price. And then some posts are "pie in the sky" regarding their deal. But, I also agree that Edmunds TMV is on the high side. Again, try trucar.com to get an idea of what others are paying in your general area.

This is fitzram...I think you were replying to my post and offer to calculate your sales price on the MDX in your deal. I don't know why some salepeople / dealerships don't like to disclose all the information, but we really need to know all the relevant info to be able to determine whether or not we're getting a geed deal. I see there's a lot of fees included in that $4k due on signing so that will change the numbers on the MDX sale price. First a note about 'equity' on a lease return. I've seen it before but don't quite understand the notion of equity in a lease return. I understand that the stated residual value in the original lease contract may be different than the actual FMV at the end of the lease term, but I don't know that they're ever off by as much as $2k in current times. I suppose one could look up the wholesale value in NADA or KBB and compare it to the payoff number, and the difference would be 'equity.' My '07 MDX is coming off lease, has been inspected and came back with -0- needed in repairs, has 8k miles LESS than the lease contract allowance, and no dealers have offered any 'equity' credit towards a new lease. All I got was an offer from a Honda dealer (if I leased a Pilot) for a credit of 'about $400.' I suspect that the 'equity' number of $2k is more of a marketing tool used by the dealer trying to attract you to lease your new vehicle with him. If anyone has thoughts on this I'd welcome them. But I'll assume the $2k 'equity' in your specific deal really goes towards cap cost reduction. You're coming into the dealership with $4,227.73. If that includes your 1st mo pymt of $535, sales tax of $1,638, Acq fee of $595 and 'fees and ins' of $749, then you're really paying $710.73 towards cap cost reduction. Add the $2k 'equity' credit and your cap cost reduction is $2,710.73. Dropping these numbers into my spreadsheet I calculate a cost of $44,450. That's $1,481 over dealer invoice. I'm not sure about your area, but here in NY that's not a good deal at all. Keep in mind this assumes you really have $2k 'equity' in your '06 MDX. I also noted that you're paying $749 in 'fees and ins.' I assume we're not talking about any auto insurance that you would pay directly to your insurance carrier (comprehensive, collision, etc.). If it includes GAP insurance, Acura includes that at no additional cost. So I'd ask what 'fees' are included in that total. Here DMV fees are in the $100 range. Personally I'd keep shopping. Get some other numbers from competing dealerships. At least you'll have a better idea about your local market and what fees are charged.
