new TSX, any good boston dealers?

I am considering buying a new TSX and i live in the boston area, anyone recommend any paticular dearlership or should i be aware of any places that would try to rip me off?

also is there any way you can get a red TSX with black interior? How about if you order from factory?

the dealerships i am considering are Acura of Peabody and Acura of Boston...

Clair Acura will start out with the lowest price, usually 27,300 for Nav. Ask for Warren. Acura of Boston will usually match it, but will not start out with the lowest price. I got my CGP with Nav for 27K at Acura of Boston. You should be able to get a Non-Nav for 25K. I don't know too much about Acura of Peabody.

You might not get these prices, since the TSX is becomming a hot car.

Good Luck!

I bought my car at Acura of Peabody and dealt with Tom Roe, the Internet Sales manager. They were pleasant to deal with I didn't shop around much as I felt that I was getting a fair price for my trade in and for the tsx. I have dealt with Acura of Boston's service department when I lived closer to town and needed service on my Integra and I thought thier service department was very professional and performed quality work, especially the body shop. That being said, see who will give you the better price as I think they are both quality dealerships.

At the time I bought mine (more than a year ago), I was able to get the best deal (well, as much as anyone was dealing back then!) at North Hampton Acura (in NH). A bit of a drive, but it was worth it for me. Salesperson: Jim Ahearn.

I was talkin to acura of peabody and if i need to order the car i was told i would have to put down a 2000 deposit, does that sound right or is it too much? I swear my friend payed about 500 when he ordered his 330?

anyways i know i am gonna get the car and i will put down the 2 grand now but i would rather hold onto most of it til the car comes in...

btw i think i decided on carbon grey auto with navi...

If you are sure you are going to buy from that dealer then don't worry, because you can still cancel the downpayment and finance the whole loan. Just make sure you use a credit card. Also you might want to check with the dealer that this is a refundable or non-refundable downpayment, because you are sort of tied in to that dealer. Meaning after you sign you would lose your deposit if you decided to shop around for a lower price.

Congrats, I hope you enjoy the car and the dealership. I picked up a SSM/Quartz 6MT + Nav a few weeks ago.

Also check if there's a time limit on refunds. About a month ago I saw the fine print that said a refund could be granted only if a request was made within 48 hours of the initial signing.
