I Think I Got a Great Price!

Last night, I sent out a few e-mails to the dealerships in the New England area, asking for prices. I told them I was looking to pay $30,600 b/c that seemed to be the going rate for a non-navi. I just checked my e-mail...got one Back from Acura of Boston...which I know some people here have had good luck with. Anyway, the said they can MATCH the $30,600 if the car is in stock. Also, they have 29 TLs, 22 non-navis, and 9 out of the 22 are color combos my mom loves.

My parents thought the $31,600 they were first quoted was the lowest they could get, telling me there's not much mark-up. So I sent a simple email and knocked $1,000 off that price

I'm making progress...

See See See!!! :toothless :toothless :toothless I told you they were good with pricing! Definitely take your mom down here to town and go for a test drive. Remember that you can always service the car later at the dealer of your choice esp. if you have one closer who you like. But keep in mind that it has been said that some dealer will not give out loaners if you didn't get the car from them but I wonder if this is dealer by dealer. Good luck and keep us all posted.

That i'm not sure...their online inventory list doesn't go into specifics...only price/color/nav or no nav

I emailed the general sales manager, his name is Pete Cronin

go to www.acuraofboston.com

good luck

Good Deal!! I don't know if you have thought about it but might be nice if your parents kicked back to you at least half the savings you gave them on their new car. 500 bucks for your effort and they still save money.

I never thought about that

But seriously...I don't even have a job right now, and I drive a brand new car. My parents pay for everything for me right now...it's the least I can do. Me and my brother take all their money. If it wasn't for us, they could buy 3 TLs...lol. Plus, I know my mom would let me drive the TL whenever I wanted. Even if my parents offered me $500, I wouldn't take it.
