Where's the bottom

Cool, did the app help?
We were talking to a SoCal dealer on a $198,200 MSRP car, they don't want to move much besides the $30k incentive. Shopping for a car is tiring, LOL


I didn't know anything about leasing, so yes the app certainly helps once you understand car leasing terms. I didn't realize that when you lease a car, the dealer sells the vehicle to the leasing company at the negotiated price. Leasing company then leases the car to you based on that purchase price. (Alright, some of you already knew that). It is this negotiated selling price that has the biggest impact on the monthly payment.

Do you, have you negotiated the selling price on a lease?

Picked her up this morning in Santa Barbara, spent the day shopping there with my wife. She and I both drove the 130 miles home...
:tickled_pink::tickled_pink::tickled_pink:
All I can say is WOW...so much Fun!!!

Ahhhh! So you're the fella that picked this up! Congrats! They would bring this out to local Cars and Coffee once in a while with positive feedback. Silver is an underrated color.

The Source Silver is INSANE, in certain lighting there is strong hint of White...Badd Ass...:cool:
 
You bought the silver Friday night! I was going in Sat am to buy it and Nic told me he had just sold it... Love the silver. Congrats.

I just picked up a casino white from the east coast. Should be delivered next week. Excited.

Ps - First post, first time on this forum.

My wife and I took a rental car to Santa Barbara Thursday night and we were at the dealership Friday at 9:30am, after picking the car up she wanted to spend the day in Santa Barbara shopping/ dinner and we were home in Upland, CA by 9pm. Tony and I already had final numbers on Monday (I had aggressively been seeking the right car since 8/24/17), so they spent the rest of the week doing CPO Certification and I also wanted the oil changed (just because). My wife really wanted a 130R White/ Red badly, but sadly I just could not get (3) other dealers to make the numbers work (fantastic deal on the Source Silver). The Source Silver / Red is stunning in sunlight and of course my wife is Happy...win win :tongue:

Congrats on the Casino White, you are going to love the car...:cool:

Are you guys getting dollars off MSRP, NOT counting the $30k incentive? I'm being told by a couple of dealerships that the 30k is only applied to the down not taken off price so that also means we pay taxes on the negotiates price rather than with the 30k off. I see a lot of people saying they're getting $30k to $50k off. Is that inclusive of the $30k incentive??

Found a dealer demo car has 2k miles msrp is at 174k. Its been offered at 129k. how much more room do you guys think there is?
 
Yes 50k off includes the 30k incentive. It is subject to sales tax, but who cares. You can get a better deal on demo, as long as your happy with the spec.

A demo with 2K+ miles, easily $5K left and push for $7k-$10K...FWIW :biggrin:
 
Did you talk with Hoehn in Carlsbad? I swung by there last Saturday and they were still looking for a "Home Run"...

Yup - I did speak to them and did not get good vibes from....
 
So what do you guys think of a car with 300+ miles but not titled, essentially a new car? Dealer drove it to local events for promotions. What is a fair price for the car if MSRP was around $170k?

The car is not ideal spec for us because no CF roof or trunk spoiler either.
 
IMHO, I would say $120K-$130K ($30K incentive & $20K program monies) JM2C :tongue:
 
Is the car new or a program/ demo?
 
When I was actively looking I think one of the better deals I found was a 173 car offered at 30,000+13,000 off … Zero mile not a demo 130,000 even...pretty sure they already move this one
 
We spoke to a dealer in NY that was linked in another thread offering lease deals for $1299 month.

They told us the $30k incentive is split to how many new NSX's they had in stock. Apparently they had 3 of them, and the first one got the $10k off. The remaining two had $10k each, he offered us the $20k remaining off either car. We asked them what about the last car and he said that car would have no inventive left. We find that highly suspicious and BS since that would not seem fair to give us the full $20k and leave the last car at MSRP.

Not sure why a dealer would pull this kind of BS when they are the ones who posted the lease deal here! Do they think new NSX buyers are plain stupid???? This is the kind of thing that infuriates the potential buyer. If you want to sell the car, sell it as a honest price and not lie about incentives....

this is the dealers post FYI:

It's a shame but a reality that many dealers cannot get out of the BS business. I'll give them one benefit of the doubt, in that having talked to nine dealers before buying mine, I got the sense that the people on the phones are very badly trained and don't understand the incentive in the first place. Even the sales managers were confused.

I did consistently hear that dealers were given different incentive amounts, but never that they had one lump sum to spread across inventory.

Agreed Steve, to be honest we are a bit turned off by the whole experience.....sadly Acura has some great corporate guys but when it comes filtering down to the dealerships, they have MUCH MUCH to learn. It will take some serious training from top down mgmt. to get the entire dealership chain on-board. Not sure if this is even possible because of the nature of the car dealerships.

Only exotic car guys who deal with this a daily basis "get it" ......
 
For those looking at demo cars, be sure to look at the side bolsters. I've seen 2 demo cars with less than 500 miles on them and the driver side bolster looks terrible. It looks like the leather is very soft on these cars.
