TL Type S for $500 Below Invoice???

Hey guys,

I have a two dealerships who are offering the TL-S for $250 and $500 below invoice respectively. This seems like an amazing price but is there some sort of promotion going on that I dont know about? If not I should jump on the $500 below invoice deal right???

Thanks!!!

Below INVOICE or below MSRP? If below Invoice then your talking something like $33,600, right?

Stevens Creek quoted me the $500 under...

Steve Hopkins Acura of Fairfield gave me $250 under and I took that because I just didn't want to drive all the way down to San Jose...

I just picked up the Black on Blk/Silver TL-S tonight! and man is this car amazing or what!!! I actually don't want to drive my G35 Coupe right now! LOL

If you can get it for less than $35,444....... $34,xxx, grab it. But beware the hidden charges and/or dealer fees.

And remember: the dealer has a 3% hold back that he gets from the factory so he's not losing money.

Did you have a trade in of some sort worked into the deal? Were there some magic dealer fee's added in after the fact?

Below invoice just seems to be too good to be true, and I have yet to see factual confirmation of it. Congrats on your new S either way. =)

Grand total was 38,573 OTD...the Quote on the car was 35,194 so if you do mulitply that amount by the avg of 1.1 (that includes tax, license, etc) for California residence you do get about $38,600 which was the about amount the car came out to be...They had a LOT of TL-S's at their dealership

Now that I retake a look at the papers the only fee they charged that slipped my eye was the documentation fee that was $55
