Duplicate key $65 vs. $25

PAA pulls through again.

I have may car there this morning again for rear window replacement, and I asked how much they charged for a duplicate key, Tom told me $25.

Just last week I asked a dealer by me, they wanted $65!!!

Needless to say I am getting it done at paa

Boy, it really does feel good to work with a dealer that is not out to rip you off.

My previous car was a nissan, there is no comparison between the service I am getting from PAA vs. Nissan dealerships. It's like night and day.

I already told you no more Park Avenue Acura for being cheap bastards and not having any meets. You guys keep giving them business without any meets then they wont hook it up

I do miss PAA even though I use to take a day off of work ...it was a great experience almost like buying a new car

well i wouldn't call it cheap. It was something like 10k out of pocket for PAA. I can understand why they didn't have anything last year. They were going through a major expansion....space and funds were limited??

there were more than a few of us willing to dish out $20 or more for food and stuff just so the meet could be on

look at the situation...it's an Acura meet, which means CL's, TL's, RSX's, Teg's, NSX's, TSX's, etc. all showing up at a relatively confined piece of property...the '02 meet had to use the bimmer lot scross the street for spillover...the '03 meet woulda been so big, there's no way they could have fit everyone in both their lot and the bimmer lot

ok, so next best alternative, have it in a large parking lot, like at the Meadowlands, right??? well that costs lotsa money, not to mention liability issues in case something were to happen

sounds like way too many potential problems and a lot of headaches
