Anyone else have dealers let them use indoor wash bays?
I bought my 05 6MT/Navi from Acura of Dayton about 3 weeks ago. I didn't really play hardball on the price (34K even w/out taxes) because I thought the after-sales benefits were pretty good for their cars. I haven't used it yet, but the dealership offers lifetime valet and loaner cars -- for as long as I own the car, the dealer drives a loaner to my work or home, drops it off, picks up my car, it gets serviced, and then the same thing happens again when the service is done. The entire loaner fleet is 05 TL's too. The second big benefit is one I used yesterday -- using the dealer's car wash and detail bays on Saturdays. Indoors, heated, warm water hose, shop vac. Customer provides all other supplies, but I thought it was pretty damn nice being able to Zaino my car while it was freezing outside!
Anyone else have dealers that offer lifetime valet/loaners and use of dealer facilities like this?

My dealer offers loaners - but not pickup/drop off service with the loaners. Our lexus dealer does that 
. No cleaning areas either from my dealer.
Pics of car with zaino???
Congrats on the car!

I bought My TL from Heart Acura in Wappingers Falls NY, I get a free loaner car with service, but no valet. They do wash and vacuume the car with any service.

The valet service is nice, but I opted not to get my B service there when they said it would cost $198 for the B service. I went somewhere else and got it for $75.
In my experience, their loaner cars have not always been new TL's. I had an old Chrysler for a week once while they worked on my car.
I hope your experience is better with them.
