How much should I expect to pay? 2 questions

I am considering buying a 2004 TL for my daily driver. I wanted to know how much I should expect to pay. I am in Miami Florida. I want an auto with Navigation system. The secind question is that if the automatic tranny worth good? The third question is that what exactly is the A-spec kit? Is it the body kit that you could buy on the website when you build and price the car? Thank guys. Just trying to help me decide

im paying 34,534 + tax + 499 dealer fee from rick case acura in FL.

the 34,534 also includes the underbody kits (front/middle/rear), protection package(usually thrown in free), the rubber mats in the front, and the deck lid spoiler, all installed.

not too bad.

its usually said that if you get 33,000 for a TL with NAVI you are doing good.

also. the a-spec kit consists of the following ( i might be missing something, someone correct me if i am wrong)

the underbody kits and either the deck lid or full spoiler, 18" wheels, different suspension kit (lowers the car about an inch), a thicker steering wheel with blue stitching, brembo brakes, and the little a-spec badge on the back of the car.

i think thats all...

dealers usually charge about 5K for it. but i think people here have been offered 3.5K for the whole thing.

Low 31s is a fair, good price for NON Navi and no trade. Low 33s is a fair and attainable price for a Navi/auto. At Rick Case, you can do better on a 6 speed manual as supply exceeds demand.

There is about 20-25% markup in the body add-ons. If you pay list for those, they are more likely to give a good price on the car.

If you finance thru the dealer, get an extended warranty thru the dealer, they also make good money from those and are more willing to deal.

Good luck!
