TSx shopping

Found a Silver MT ebony and got a so-so quote on it.

Found a Silver MT quartz got a great quote.

Had my heart set on Silver/Ebony... Any one have quartz?? And how is it.

I'm gonna head out to the dealership next week to check it out myself.

I know quarts probably gets dirty easily & and ebony is sleeker. THe only positive i see in quarts is that it doesn't get hot in the sun.

What do you guys think?

Btw.. Quote on Silver/Ebony approx 25500
quote on Silver/quarts 24500.

WOW. I'm sure I can bargain 25500 down a lot more. GUess I'll see in the next few weeks.

I don't know about quartz, but I am surprised at how my ebony holds up pretty well.

It is surprising how it doesn't get incredibly hot in the sun... that's probablybecause of the heat-rejecting windows.

Anyways, good luck with the negociation process, and welcome Home!

Yeah, welcome...
From experience (I wanted a CG/Ebony, but because I couldn't have it right away (and I couldn't wait (my bad, I know)) yet "settled" for a NHB/Ebony instead, and had the dealer knock some off...anyway, tangent here, but I'm super-dooper happy with my car) I have to recommend that you buy what you want, Damn the Torpedos. You can save a grand (over what, 40-60 months? That's like an extra $17-25 a month for something you really are happy with. Go with what moves you....

I have SSM with the Quartz interior and I haven't had any problems keeping it clean at all. I think the Ebony looks very sharp, too, but overall I'm very happy with the color combo I got.

Holy :shit: ! You've got some mad negotiating skills. Invoice is $24,691 (http://www.acura-tsx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12877) How did you get them that low? Share your knowledge and expertise.

It all depends on how much you like the color combos. If the quartz is something that you think you'll be regretting settling for then go for the ebony. I see you're in SoCal so there are a lot of dealers to negotiate with if you're willing to drive a little. Considering the quote you got on the quartz you should be able to get a good price on the ebony at some point. Good Luck.

Sup guys. I just e-mailed around for quotes. Now I'm running around scrapping up for a down payment. And I'm worried if i'm going to get assed on a high APR.

Honda Finance posts the current rate on their website but you might be able to do better through your bank.
