Once, $100 over invoice if an ordered one arrives before they can find one to trade for. If they can find one to trade for by July 15th, $700 over invoice to cover transport and for getting me into one faster...

On order:

Redondo Red/Camel 6MT w/NAV

Once. Bought it like every other car.

Call up dealer and say "I want <color> <model> w/ <options> and I'll pay <invoice.> Do you want to make the easiest sale of the month? That is my best and final offer."

I've never had a dealer turn me down.

Twice for us. We went to one dealer at night when the one we wanted to buy from was closed, and looked at the car. Then we went to the dealer we wanted to get the car from and bought it.

I have a hard time believing that you got a TL for invoice. Didn't you say that you bought from Oxmoor Acura?

Wherever you're, the place you go is like the heaven.

What do you mean "cash"?

I handed over the bank check, equal to the term of cash, but was never able to get any invoice deal in my whole life for such a hot/new vehicle in the first half year.

Damn, that's only about 4 miles from me. I am in Prospect. I'll be on the lookout for ya. I'm over there at the Summit all the time. Ever go to Beef-O-Brady's for a beer or six?? Anyhow, I'm anthracite, with the body kit, 18" OEM's and 35% tint if you see me.

BTW - Cards fan or Cats fan? Since you got a red TL, I think I know

I may have seen you. If you ever go to the kroger on 22 right across from the summit. I'll definately know from the OEM 18s though. I'll honk.

I'm a cards and cats fan - root for them both. Cats if they are playing each other.

'never been to beef-obrady's. but you can bet your ass I'm drinking beer on a friday (or any other day. )
