Hey guys new to the forum. Buying a new TL soon! Going for 5AT w/ navi. I am in Houston ,TX and would like to know if any members have bought their cars Houston or surrounding areas. If you had a good experience please let me know who with and if you got a deal. Thanks in advance.

 

I bought both of my cars at Vandergriff Acura in Arlington, TX. They were great to work with. Whomever you decide to go with I recommend that you call first and ask to speak with a fleet sales person. I guarantee you will get a better deal. I have one question, why did you decide to buy now and not wait for the 06’s. Just curious.

 

Just got a new job. I am in sales, need a new car really want the TL. Test drove one here in Houston and loved it. I like it way better than the G35 and the 325i. Don't really want to wait for the 06's. When are they supposed to hit dealer's lots? Do you have a 3rd Gen. TL if so how much did you pay for it?

 

06 should be around in Sep-Oct, I was a very successful Acura salesman in Virginia till 2003(Iam a practicing doctor now).
No you don't need any gimmicks for a good deal, stick to the invoice, get a good finance rate from a credit union ask the dealer to beat it if they can, if the can't go thorugh your credit union. Usually last day of the month is good for bargaining, last day of the year is the best, remember the bigger the dealer better deal you get, best is to find 2 dealerships who compete for number 1-2 positions.
By the way r u leasing or buying??. Personally I think 06 will be largely unchanged.
Good luck.

 

If you really want it now, don't wait for the 06. As far as gimmicks, I think acura never has any special sales.
