I was able to obtain very useful information on AcuraLink. Hope this helps.

1. All packages are available already

2. New owners can get a 3 month FREE trial of both Connect and Premium packages by simply calling AcuraLink at 8003822238

a. They will be asked to provide a credit card so that services can be billed after the 3 month trial ends

b. They will get notice before the 3 month Trial expires

3. The following is the service pricing

a. Connect

i. 1 year price - $250

ii. 2 year price - $398

b. Premium (includes the Connect package)

i. 1 year price - $ 350

ii. 2 year price $ 536 – so only $70 per year more than Connect

 

Additionally, 3 yrs or more are available for $199/yr. I signed up for 4 years for the connect out of the gate. I actually used the Premium Concierge function this past weekend and am debating on whether to add the $69/ yr to upgrade to Premium.
