They started at MSRP, went to $500 under MSRP with Costco discount. A local dealer offered me $750 off to get me to change dealerships. The original dealer matched.

I posted my $750 off of msrp here and a member from Ok. shared that there where getting $750 over invoice.

After calling around a bit more, I'm at $700 over invoice + destination.

If the 2005 invoice to MSRP spread is the same as the 2006, I'm at almost $1900 under MSRP. And my car will be in the first shipment. It's the only 6-speed they ordered. Black on Black, 6-speed manual, navi.

Oh ya... bluetooth, memory seats, upgraded navi, skirt kit, and more power standard.

Is there a chance that picture was just a photo-shopped representation of what some artist thinks the redesign might look like?

"THAT" picture? What picture?

Yes as you probably saw in my totaled SSM thread in the photo gallery my choices now are down to an 04 TL or an 06 TSX. I would love an actual pic of it to see what it looks like.

From 2006 info thread:

Found in October R&T.

Sounds like a good price. I think anywhere around 2-3% above invoice is a good deal on a car. Especially with the options you are getting. Are those options included in the price, or invoice + dest + $700 + options?

The 2006 is updated with those options standard. You have to opt for the navi trim level to get the upgraded navigation, of course.

I will be getting $800 off MSRP for a 5AT CGP/Ebony with Navi. Good enough for me.

Hmm...I wonder they did to bump the HP up 10.

How are they accepting your 06 orders without knowing what the colours will be yet?

I have been waiting to order to see what the new colours are. I guess black will likely be the same.

They know the names of the colors. They have already ordered their first allotment of cars. My dealer is getting 7 cars. Mine is the only 5-speed manual. At least one of the others is a new color, Royal Blue Pearl.

Yours must be the ONLY 5-speed manual that will EVER come on a TSX.



5AT or 6MT

They must have seen the pic, thats why their dealing on 06's

The basic look of the front end and the new wheels is the same as the JDM Accord/Euro Accord. The only difference is that their grill is more aggressive looking IMO.

Woops, tyop, 6-speed. Good catch.

They placed the order before the pictures. As far as I know, there are still no pictures of the 2006 TSX with the new colors.

There is a low rez photo from the october R&T and a bunch of Japan Accord photos.

They had the same info that we had a few weeks ago with the names of the new colors, HP increase, and additional standard options.

Don't know if the royal blue has a buyer yet. They likely ordered it to see what it looks like. The dealer told me that it's not unusual for them not to know what a color is going to look like until it rolls off the trailer. He was a little embarased about having to admit how uninformed they are.

When I asked about changes for the 2006, he pulled a print of the same post I read here a few weeks ago.

I was getting $750 under MSRP. Then I forwarded the quote from annother dealer and they matched the price without question. You might want to try it.

Using the invoice to MSRP spread of the '05, going from your price to mine would be worth about $1000!

mobidutch

Always worth a try...would you mind sending me that quote via PM? Thx!

cmf

Nope

Compare both pics again, you'll see.
