Question Tough buying decision

Hey everyone, first time poster but hopefully soon to be TLX owner. Wanted to pick your Acura-brains about the decision I have to make.

Basically, I know the exact TLX I want, but it doesn't exist. It would be a FWD 4 cyl Tech w/ Acurawatch. Strongly lean toward the DCT (coming from MT Accord). Adaptive cruise and lane keeping are a must for me but the rest of the Advance package doesn't mean much to me. Obviously you can't get the Acurawatch separately and I have to step up to the Advance trim if I want to get a 2015. Otherwise I need to wait until the 16s are out. I took my desired configuration to two dealerships here in NJ and they've responded pretty well. They both offered me the following:

$38,600 for a FWD 4-cyl Advance brand new (pre-tax/fees).

My trade in (09 Accord coupe) has its own crazy story but I'll save that unless you all are interested.

What do you think about their offer for the Advance? I think it's quite good but I'm being told by some trusted advisors to wait for the 16s and get exactly what I want (assuming they offer Acurawatch independent of trim level).

Two weeks ago I purchased a new TLX V6 SH-AWD Advance for $39,900 before taxes. Just throw'in that price out there for a reference.

There is no such thing as a '15 FWD 4-cyl Advance. Do you mean a FWD 6-cyl Advance? If so, the price seems to be inline with what others are paying.

You are correct. That's a typo. Should be 6-cyl. Otherwise I'd have bought the car!
