Hi, guys. I am a new comer in this disscussion board and I am really happy finding out so many useful info about
Acura TL here.
Right now I am about to get a new TL as a birthday present for myself but I don't know where to buy could get a really good deal on it in SF Bay area.
So, could anyone who had purchased TL near the SF Bay area and thinks it was a good deal tell me which dealship is better around here, please?

Thanks a lot, have a nice weekend.

 

got mine from Oakland Acura
speak to Clark 510-444-8383

 

DO NOT go to Acura of Serramonte!!!!!!!!!

 

I read that Acura of Concord got that Service Excellence(?) award.

 

I don't care a whole lot for Acura of Concord's service. It seems as if they are understaffed and overworked. Brought the car in with an appointment at 10am for minor warranty fixes. Even though they are open until 7pm, they wanted the car until the next day!!! My Honda dealer (Walnut Creek Honda) seems to try much harder to please their customers.
In any case, I have read on here too that Acura of Oakland has good deals. You can always try a buying program like the one offered by Price-Costco. Maybe now that there are Tl's that are on the lot's dealers might honor that program. Then again maybe not... the TL is still a hot seller

 

I got mine from Mike Harvey Acura in Burlingame. They give you respect as a customer.

I can recommend Solano Acura in Fairfield. It's a bit of a drive, but I bet you can get a better deal than almost anywhere else, because demand is much lower in the immediate area. I found sales staff to be very professional and very straightforward; no games and they gave me a very fair deal on my trade-in.

 

i second the response about serramonte acura, they suck. worst experience i have ever had. Oakland acura is good, clark didn't give me a deal but the experience was good. I got mine on greenlight.com. They are based in Pleasanton.

 

I'd say go to Mike Harvey Acura in Burlingame. I bought my TL there and just bought the MDX there today. If you go there, ask for Leo. He is only there on the weekends, but he is cool.

Clark of Oakland Acura did my deal. Although it was a Carorder.com deal, he treated me well.

Best advice is to roll in there towards the end of the month. They are anxious to make their quota w/ Acura and may give you a better deal.

 

Thanks, everyone. I will check every dealer that you suggested. But how much you guys think I could cut off the MSRP would be a good deal ???

w/o NAVI: MSRP=$29030
with MAVI:MSRP=$31030

I saw someone paid $26700 for non-NAVI and the other guy paid $29,650 + tax and title for a TL/Nav with burlwood shift knob, 6-CD changer and floor mats.
Those were good deals but I think those dealers are not in SF bay area.
Everyone think I can get a deal like those guys at the dealership that you suggested ?

Please advise !

If I pay in full(cash) without any financing, will the price be a big difference ?

Thanks again,

 

I paid around $500 off the MSRP for 00 TL.

Bought the car from Steve Creek. The salesmen matched the carsdirect.com price at that time.

But would not recommend their service department though.

 

i also got mine at stevens creek acura
they offered 500 off msrp
personally, i think you can get close to 1000 off the msrp, but dont take my advice.
the sales person i talked to was totally new and they promised they'd meet/beat any other dealer
i got the 01 tl w/o nav
6 cd changer, spoiler, wheel locks, splash guards, burlwood knob
totalling 29,910 +tax n registration

 

I can't. The sales manager was a real goon, and we had to threaten to walk out just so that we could get them to throw in floormats and mudflaps at no additional cost. They would not budge on the wheel locks, so they took them off the car. Rick Lopez our salesman was ok. Although he didn't have to sell it to us. It just so happened that the person who had ordered the car, pulled out at the last minute, and they had the exact car we were looking for arriving in a day or two from then.
