Waiting 'till the weekend? Get it now!

Enjoy, but don't let them sell you any of their add-on crap. Just not worth it at all; everything can be had better and cheaper elsewhere.

The only saving grace is being able to finance for years at a decent rate, so the only worthwhile dealer add-ons are the expensive ones, like body kit and spoiler.

Whatever you do, don't get the extended warranty or that BS paint/interior protection package. Slik50 will give you extended engine warranty for $20, and Prolong will do the same for paint for the same $20. Just spray Scotchguard on the mats yourself for about five bucks.

If you still want the extended warranty (not even a warranty, more like an insurance plan for mechanicals - it's actually an "extended service contract"), you can always buy a better one later for less money than from Acura. Save your money for better things.

Thanks for the advice, Gomez. I don't plan to take any of those things, and we've actually worked everything out already on the phone. I still have to decide between the bank or the dealer financing, but I haven't heard the dealer's number (9% from the bank... this may be the higher of the two in the long run, but after we sell our Accord in the AutoTrader, we want to pay down the new Acura. For the bank, this will lower our payments, but for the dealer, well, I'm not sure yet, but I'm pretty sure our payments won't budge without refinancing at a higher rate).
