Am I getting a good deal???

Let me start off by saying that I have a '99 Tl w/ 157k on it. My car is in not so good condition. I need some body work along with other mechanical work. Today I set out to get the mechanical portion done... I was quoted about 1200-1500 to replace 3 motor mounts and replace my timing belt and other parts. I started thinking if it would be better to just get a new car. So I went to Metro Acura in Philly and here's the deal I was offered. For a '07 TL Non-Navi, I would be paying 537/mo for 60 months w/ 1k down and they would be giving me 5K for my car. What do you guys think??? Is that to much...or a good deal. I don't think its all that bad considering it only 99 more than what I paid for my 99 and I brought that with 48k on it. Can I get some opinons?

Thats not bad but I would look around a little bit more. I doubt the acura dealership I go to(Piazza Acura of West Chester) would have anything better. But 5k for your car sounds reasonible based off the mileage the work it needs done.

Which acura dealer. The only one I know is Price's and they did a great job when my car needed to be repaired however I don't know much about their deals.

In all honesty, people on the 3g tl forum get the TL-S for 33.5K, thats with navi and 3.5 motor, you should be getting a max of 30k for the non-navi TL, BTW, those with non-navi third gens regret it, go with the navi. Look at the 3g section...

$5k for your trade means they jacked up the price of their car somewhere...

Invoice is $30,848. You can still find a better deal.
