Acura TL Purchase
 

Couldn't find an Acura group, so I figured this is the place. Just bought a
2003 TL Type-S. Ended up getting it for $29,700 with wheel locks, moonroof
visor, splash guards thrown in. Was this a good deal, or could we have gone
lower?

For a Type S, it sounds pretty good.

Not meaning to be a smart ass, but isn't it a little late for this
particular question? People may confirm it's a good price, but suppose a
bunch post that you could have gotten it for $1,500 less? Why make
yourself miserable over a done deal?

Good luck with your new car, I had a '88 Integra and loved it.

It seems to me to be a fairly good deal. You might want to visit a large
bookstore such as Barnes and Noble and check the section of books that
have books and guides about car prices. I think the one the car dealers
use is called the Blue Book. I believe you can buy them at Barnes and
Noble--don't buy it--just look up your car.

The Acura is an excellent car and I don't believe you will be upset with
the car. I seem to recall reading in Car and Driver magazine that the 2003
or 2004 Acura is Japan's version of the Accord. In other words, if you
visited Japan, you would see cars exactly like the one you own with the
Accord name on them.
Perhaps another poster can verify this story.
