Paragon Acura?

Looking to purchase an 06 TSX with 36k miles CPO for $15k. Had a minor fender bender before. Half the positive reviews about paragon look fake and the negative reviews look real.

Have any of you guys ever dealt with Paragon? This car looks like a bait car too me after reading reviews about Paragon doing the bait tactic.
I am having a friend check the car out tomorrow that lives local to the area so if it is a bait car . Better luck next time.

I bought the last brand new 08 TL they had because I had no choice. Defiantly the worst experience I have had with a dealer.

I dealt with their Honda service and they were the worse. And they also harass you a lot after the sale to try and get you to upgrade your vehicle. I had to lie to them and tell them I was in an infiniti just so they could stop calling me.

paragon

I have a 06 TSX with 6 speed that I bought new at Valley Stream. Test drove one at Paragon back in 06 and the salemen wouldn't even quote me a price on the car. Thought they were playing games. He couldn't do anything wothout first checking with his boss. I didn't like the "games" they were playing and walked out.

I'm selling my car if you're interested. (38K, silver w black interior)

Any good bodyshop can inspect and tell you. A LOT of accidents do not show up on Carfax. Call your insurance comapny and ask them if they report to Carfax....most do not.

Paragon Sucks Royal. I went to them 1st for my TL, walked out in 4 minutes. Just Douches. Bought the car from Acura of Westchester, not one complaint.

Curious with all these bad comments about Paragon I wonder why Acura Corporate just don't shut them down? Talk about given the brand a bad name!

i know i'm bumping an old thread, but i stumled across these threads when i googled Paragon. I purchased my 1st car from Paragon in January 2010. picked up an 2006 TL NAV cert.

i went through a painful experience waiting 6+ hours to walk out with keys in hand. living in boston, i did everything possible (paperwork, plates, etc) to eliminate multiple 4 hour commutes back and forth.

they didnt touch a single thing i wanted fixed when i left the deposit. the car was CPO, so i was able to go locally to get my stuff fixed after.

overall, i walked away with an amazing deal on the perfect car. the 4 hour drive, paperwork, and waiting forever to get my car was worth the price. would i buy from them again? probably. just have patience and don't let them take advantage of you.

^^ I agree.

Paragon Acura is the worse.

Besides all the negative experiences I've had with the service department, I remember when I went to their parts department. I waited like 45 minutes for someone to attend me, and all I was getting was a license plate holder.

Go somewhere else, they are GARBAGE.
