Perhaps if there is no game, we could meet at PacBell Park (there should be little activity near the park this time of year!)

Hi, what is your name? I bought my TL at Marin Acura...Michael and David treated me very well. I bought WPD/5AT/NAVI Last August 31, 2004.
I wish that Bay Area Dealers would give us better deals with parts & accessories, your competitors (Falconi Acura of LV & a Dealer in So.Cal.) they are getting our business. See comment below.
P.S. Say hi to David Woods from Rick G. (04TL WPD/5AT/Navi) formerly of SKYY Vodka.

consumers are well educated, communicate amongst each other, and will accept multiple bids making large purchases.
The already crowded Acura dealer marketing in bay area (at least 3 within minutes of each other in south bay) must stay competitive in service, pricing, and parts. Now bay area dealers have to compete with nationwide dealers and aftermarket vendors.
Information has changed the way consumers act, behave, and purchase.
In summary, if you want to survive and thrive, you must adjust to meet market changes. In business, the only thing 'constant' is 'change.'
Believe me, we're waiting for a dealer to really take the charge, we will FLOOD to the dealer that wants these members business.
ok. ill shut up now, just trying to help any dealer managers take an opportunity and run with it

Our first meet had about 12 Acura car owners and few that could not make it because of scheduling conflict. This is our first meet and as you can see we all checked each others ride. I am already considering the following purchase:
1. Black chrome A-spec Rims
2. Rear Lip spoiler
3. A-spec suspension
What is the best quote that you can give me?
If you can get us a better deal (compared to the internet) the likes of those other Acura Dealer outside of the Bay Area.
How about hosting a Meet at your dealership? Or maybe represent your Delearship at one of our meet...I think you can make a lot of money on us(considering you give us a good deal).
