Acura Offering Some Great Incentives
There's good news for luxury car buyers: Acura is offering some great incentives on all of its 2009 models this October.
Among these are special lease deals, low-interest loans, and factory-to-dealer rebates.
The cash rebates are being given to dealers to help speed up sales of the older 2009 models by lowering prices for consumers. What's unique about the program is that it allows combinations of the cash rebate with low-interest loans. This results in a big cost savings for customers - not a bad deal for a luxury car.
Here are the details on the new incentives:
Acura MDX - $2000 dealer rebate; 1.9% APR loan rate for 24/36 months and 2.9% for 60 months; special lease deal available for the Base model.
Acura RDX - $1500 dealer rebate; special lease deal for 2010 RDX Base model.
Acura RL - $3000 dealer rebate; $2000 dealer rebate and special lease deal for 2010 RL.
Acura TL - $2000 dealer rebate and low interest loan rates (1.9% APR for 24/36 months and 2.9% for 60 months); same APR rates for 2010 TL.
Acura TSX - $1250 dealer rebate; two special lease deals for 2010 TSX.
These deals are good only through November 2, 2009.
My Recommendation for Car Shoppers
TrueCar No-Haggle, Edmunds Price Promise, and 1-800 Car Show are the quickest way to see the lowest car prices in your area. These sites show you no-haggle prices from dealers closest to you - and the deals are usually really good. This should be the first step you take when negotiating your car price. Follow this up with my checklist to make sure you squeeze out every last bit of savings.California Residents - Important:
There is a new online car buying service called Roadster, available only to California residents, which I highly recommend you try - especially if you hate the stress of haggling with a car salesman. They provide an expert concierge who negotiates the price of the car and delivers it to your home with zero hassle - you never have to interact with a dealership. Here is my in-depth review of Roadster and why I recommend it.- Gregg Fidan
