just bought a tsx. was this a good deal?

I bought a brand new 2005 tsx AT with nav this weekend. Jumped on the deal when the fleet manager said $26300 and they waived the destination fee. checked out the 2006 is250 earlier in the day, that was nice, but it was just waaaay too expensive. like $10k more.

good deal right?

Did you have a trade in? Did you finance through the dealer? Did you buy any accessories or an extended warranty? Did they charge you a $500 advertising fee :P Hard to tell if you got a good deal without knowing the whole story.

$26.3 is a good deal.. you should jump on it. I financed my car thru another bank. Acura will charge you an arm and a leg. I think their apr is 5.9%. I got mine at 4.69% thru capital one auto finance. Its an online process. You'll get your check within 5 days.

well the thing was this. i guess they had nothing but silver ones (the entire week they had nothing but silver)

i paid cash. i bought no accessories, no warranty and no advertising fee.

hell i didnt even haggle much , they had another with navi and non navi that day too and sold those as well.

like i just called on the phone, and they were like, ok if you come down we'll give it to you for 26800.


so then i come in for a test drive at like 900pm. and they tell me, 26300 (i didnt even say anything yet).. so i'm like...ok ill take it.

ended up waiting like 2 hours, because some guy was buying a tl, and some family was buying a silver tsx non navi they had. but by around 11pm i was finaly out of there.

Looks pretty good then - according to msn, invoice is 26605.

I believe Acura holdback is 3%, which puts their cost at 25,511. So they only made ~800 before paying for rent, utilities, salaries, insurance, etc. If the destination charge comes out of that 800, it looks like a killer deal

Congrats

yeah the destination was included in my $26300, or they just didnt charge it (its pure profit anyway right?)
