Hi Everybody,

I have been a long time lurker on this site, excellent site I might say. I got a question for all you vets. I am interested in purchasing a 04-05 TL with Navigation. The prices have gone down a lot and there's quite a few deals out there now.

My question though is, should I wait until the new TL comes out, so that the prices will drop or do you guys think the prices aren't going to drop much more after the 4g TL is released.

Thank you guys so much.

 

wait.

 

i should have waited another year to buy my 05 price dropped TREMENDOUSLY! i can imagine how much more it would be when the new ones come out.

 

when is the release date for the 4th gen?

 

wait till the new one comes out

 

My local Acura dealer, Acura of the Desert said the '09 TL would be in stock on Sept. 24, will sure be interested in the way it looks in person so will be there to check it out. I am very happy with my '07 TLS and plan to keep it though because I like the body shape better, but that is personal preference

 

September i believe

 

i agree...wait
also i suggest you look for an 06 model - has tpms and better software for the hfl unit

 

Definitely wait until the new model comes out at the end of September. The 3G will be alot cheaper. Sure I could've waited a few months before buying mines, but I gotta say, I do not regret my decision one bit after buying my TL back in June. I absolutely love this car!

I suggest going to the car dealership every week to test drive it until the time you buy it to keep the urges down. ;-)

 

everybody is telling you the same thing for a reason

I agree with erik, try to go for a 06

 

ditto.

 

I appreciate all your responses, so I guess I am going to wait it out. It's going to be hard since I have been test driving 3Gs and I just love them.

Do any of you guys know if the TSXs dropped a lot after the release of the 2G TSX?

I do want the newest one possible, but my budget right now is about 20k, so I doubt I would be able to get an 06 in a few months, this is Toronto prices.

Again thanks, this is the best board I have seen so far and I have been on a few.

 

I am guessing tpms stands for tire pressure monitoring system, but what is hfl unit?

 

I think HFL stands for hands free link ....

 

Hmm ur in Toronto? we should get the TL together! try for a 2 for 1 discount lol

 

Yeah I'm in Toronto, lets do that, see if we can get some deals, when are you planning to pick one up?

I have wasted quite a bit of money on inspections already, but i am going to wait it out now.

 

I've been told Sept 24th on the '09.

I'm waiting for a certified '06 that fits my requirements.

 

Stay away from 04s, I was just reading a thread about their tranny issues, glad I got an 05 and I hope I dont have tranny issues later on, knock on wood. I only got 28k mles on it....

 

very few first produced 04 TL's have had tranny issues, and a recall was issued to fix them. My 04 transmission has been running pretty good. I would wait on getting the TL, also you might be able to score some good deals since cars would be just coming off leases
