This a good deal?

I read the topic about how much people bought their TLs for but i'd like a little more opinions before I buy this car...

2006 Acura TL $21,995. Automatic, 33,389 miles on it, One owner, Nav, Black on Black, Bose sound system, and Xenon Lights.

Clean AutoCheck, went in to the dealership today and test drove it, very nice car. First time ever driving an Acura TL, great experience especially because the salesman let me take the car out alone!

Salesman said lowest he could go is $20,775, so about 1.3k lowered.

What you guys say? I should jump on this right?

Sounds pretty good to me. Have you compared the pricing of that TL to others on the market with similar options and miles?

Decent price. The '06 CPO cars are just slightly more than that price, but they will come with a warranty. If, in fact, a CPO vehicle, it's a good deal, if not, any warranty with the car.

I think that is a very good deal if it was a CPO vehicle. I think CPO has warranty up to 100k miles.

Didnt know you could get a TL without the xenon lights?!? (well I know you cant) Also, you mentioned bose sound system is that something that was available on the 04-06 TL's or something? I have had two 07's now first one was base with nav and it had the ELS DVD audio and now my 07 Type S also has the ELS audio. Never heard of Bose on the TL's.

If it's the one at Auto Showcase, looks clean. Still under factory warranty, but check CarFax to be certain. It has only 3 entries so it probably is good.

My 06 came with ELS (panasonic). Acura never offered any upgrade in sound systems.

I think it's a pretty good price even if it's not CPO. Worse case, buy the extended for ~1K!

If you have ever put new speakers in your car you would notice that the speakers in the back are bose speakers and I think the ones up front in the door were bose as well..

Ask for 20k to 20.5k giving the reason of the ailing economy and stuff, and really emphasize on that because if you don't they know you're bluffing. Good price nonetheless, up to you on the bargaining, welcome to the forums! You won't be disappointed (well hopefully not!)

Yea tbh it sorta threw me off for a bit. I've seen other cars advertised with bose, including cars from Cerfied Acura Dealerships.

Now it's all up to the bank, I want to see if my pops is able to finance the car through them instead of the dealership.
