Since the RL is a slow seller, are they being discounted? My grandfather wants of get rid of his 2001 lincoln continental. He can't stand owning a car that's on its death bed. Although, he does like the price of an 02 continental (42 down 22). The other cars he is considering are an S-type, S80, either the lexus es/gs/ls (he loves them all), the avalon (his friend's love his), and M45.

You don't really have to give car advice. He is just planning now and probably won't buy anything until the fall (when you're old you have nothing better to do). I just want to know about the RL for him.

 

Yes Acura dropped the price a while back. This was also confirmed by Acura Reps at the car show. I don't know if the price drop still holds .

 

Look for ATLEAST $4-5 grand off the msrp

Friend's dad bought it awhile back, almost 2 yrs ago and even then he got a nice discount.

RL = out-dated, out-shined and out-performed by almost every direct rival :o

 

You should have said EVERY RIVAL!

 

I don't know how the dealers move any RL's unless they discount them heavily.

MSRP of $43-45k!

There are so many other cars that are better for the same or less amount of cash!

 

Well we do drive an acura so u gotta be a LITTLE bias right?
