NEW USERS: Before You Start a New Thread, Read Here!

About half of the new users arriving here lately have the one and same question in their minds:

What is the best price I can expect to pay for my new TSX, in any way, shape or form?

Obviously, since this topic is being beaten to death, we don't want to have a full page of the same question, so we will lock your thread after having indicated you 1. to search, and 2. provide you with some basic threads links answering to your question. But what we're really doing here is searching for you, which really does no good for you, since our searching skills are already sharp, while you are the one who needs to finetune these said skills.

So, before you go on to posting in your new thread with potentially the same old repetitive question (which is a good one nonetheless), PLEASE follow these steps FIRST:

A) ALWAYS refer to the "Frequently Asked Questions & Common Topics section ( http://www.acura-tsx.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=60 ) : Chances are good that basic TSX-oriented questions are covered by lengthy, informative threads in there.

For example, to the "What is the best price I can expect to pay for my new TSX, in any way, shape or form" question, you will find at least 2 threads that will provide you with valuable information concerning this issue:
TSX MSRP / Invoice
Get The Dealer To Sell You At The Best Price In Town


OK, now you're not satisfied with what you've learned in these threads, or in other threads from that section? Then it's time to take it to a second step:

B) SEARCH!! The search function is the next best tool to the Forum itself. Most of you have arrived here because you conducted a search about TSX sites that could provide answers to your questions. Why lose the good habit so early?

Using the proper methods, you will be able to track down ALL the topics that have been started, since the very creation of this forum. It is only logical then to know what has already been written. Then, if you want to add your input, or ask complementary questions, you can revive these threads, and it will have the advantage of allowing them to contain important, up-to-date amounts of information in a few threads, rather than having the same info disseminated around a bunch of threads, and thus making the search an ordeal.

If you are new right now it won't remain so very long, and you will soon be wishing the newer users did exactly this as well.


So you're out of imagination on what key words to base your search on? I'll even go as far as suggesting some, but we won't do the search for you! Here are some suggestions:

-pricing
-best price
-OTD
-invoice, msrp
-best deal

And for other well beaten topics, here are more:

-Oil change
-Maintenance
-service intervals

-octane rating
-premium, regular

etc, etc.

Now you still don't find what you're looking for? You're more than welcome to go ahead and post away!

For those who still start threads with reposts, we will just automatically lock the thread and refer you to this thread here, or maybe at best (don't hope for it) point out directly the right thread to you.

Thanks all, and good luck with the searching!
