I'm considering a new RL and understand the discounts and incentives are much better for the 2010 but, if circumstances permit, I may wait for the 2011.
Historically, anyone have any idea what kind of discount to expect on the newer model when they hit the dealers' shelves?
Any estimates on how much MPG will improve with the 6sp AT?
Oh yeah, what are PAX tires?

 

try www.truecar.com for good pricing on cars.

6SP should improve mpg by 2-3 give or take.

PAX tires have a similar concept to run flats except are much more expensive and heavy.

I don't think they got that on new cars any more.

 

Thanks. Truecars doesn't show the 2011

 

well...you can get 2010 pricing and as far as I know 2011 aren't in the showrooms yet.

 

That's the reason I asked "historically"? I've been told by reliable sources they hit in Nov/Dec but, advanced pkg models may lag 1-2 months.

 

When the 2011's are released the dealers will be looking for top dollar for awhile as they determine demand. The deals on the remaining 2010's are so compelling that I decided to purchase one. I found a "fresh car" built in July, 2010 and the discount offered along with .9% financing for 60 months made the purchase a no-brainer for me. The five speed transmission is excellent and a proven performer in this car. I achieved 23 MPG on the first half tank of gas. My M35 never got higher than 20 MPG in mixed driving. I expect when my engine is broken in to well exceed this.

 

Congrats!

What color did you get? Lets have some pictures!

I would seriously suggest that you get a clear bra, like right now.

 

Thanks, I chose Grigio with Ebony interior. Will post pics in a few days.

 

Congrats, Pens Fan!

I've been checking Acura News daily for any more official info on the 2011 RL. It simply hasn't been released yet. Maybe 10/1, or 11/1?
