Lease or Paid Prices for RLX?

I'm looking into the RLX and I'm wondering whats a good deal?

Can you please post your buying experience and what you paid?

For a while now you could get $10k or more off a new RLX. However, with inventory dying down to ~400 nationwide, it appears that that is coming to an end. Edmunds still shows ~$10k is possible but TrueCar is now showing ~$4k off in my area.

If getting the best deal is your objective you may want to move now because I suspect Acura will be making even less 2015 models so that they do not have too much extra inventory on the lots. Which of course, means they will not discount as much.

Also, buying 1 should be relatively easy right now because not only will a dealership be happy to move out a 2014 RLX (if you can find 1 that has it on the lot) but with their overall inventory so low until the TLX arrives, they are probably desperate to get their #s up.

Good luck!

Stop it! Reading that almost makes me tempted to settle for a PAWS RLX. Almost.

Cash buyer should not make a difference, dealer gets paid right away with cash or in a few days with financing.

Dealers also get paid for selling loans. In some cases they make more money selling the financing then the profit of the car. CarMax's business model is not so much to sell used cars as it is to sell financing. The cars are just the 'vehicle' to sell the financing.

no it doesnt. the dealership would rather have you finance as they get a small kick back from the bank. money only talks if you have bad credit.

My FICO was over 700 at the time and having CASH in hand does help . Maybe it didn't in your case but in my case it did.

you're still entitled to your own opinion

At 0.9% financing, I'm not very motivated to pay cash.
