Owner of a new '12 SH-AWD 6MT

Sold my 2003 on Craigslist last night and took the money straight to the dealer. Drove home in a 2012 Graphite Luster SH-AWD 6MT TL. I got the car for $36,995 plus a $1,000 loyalty rebate. My out-the-door price was 39k and some change. I also managed to get 0% financing and 90 day deferred first payment. Even with my limited time behind the wheel, the car has been a blast to drive.

What was your deal? If you don't mind posting it.

First of all, congrats on the new car and welcome to the 6MT club!!

Even though your first payment is deferred for 90 days, I would strongly suggest you go ahead and make the 1st payment in 30 days if you can... What the finance people at the dealership won't tell you is that although you have no payments for 90 days, INTEREST still accrues... Depending on how much you owe on the car, it can add up quickly in 90 days...

I actually qualified for 0% interest and the deferred first payment is part of the Acura Graduate program. No interest will accrue during that time.

As others have said, welcome to the 6MT club! I'm 10 months into ownership and loving it more and more each day. I'm sure you'll experience the same feeling.

Congrats, great choice. Welcome and enjoy. As far as the deal goes, I don't think you can do any better. With all the incentives and loyalty/conquest going on right now (varies), I'm going to assume your starting point was under invoice.
