Ordered my SH-AWD Elite today

JMaurage said:

Hi all from Calgary, Alberta.

Put in my order today in Graphite/Greystone with Aero Kit. Dealer said will be about a month for it to come in.

Will be my 4th Acura, had a couple of integra's in the 90's and a 02 TL type S. Can't wait, will post pics when it comes in.

First of all welcome to the forum, I really like the Grey, it almost gets black in dimmer light, looks great!

I hope your dealer is right. I ordered my Elite SH-AWD 3 weeks ago and was told late October. Don't mean to be a wet blanket but I haven't seen to many dealers/manufacturers under promise and over perform, again I hope I'm wrong.

Yeah I was expecting end of October before I went in so won't be too disappointed if it takes that long.

I’m in Calgary as well and would be interested in knowingwhich dealer you recommend? Being your 4thAcura I assume you would have an opinion on the 2 dealers in town. Also if you don’t mind, were you able tonegotiate a price below sticker? Being anew model I would assume they wouldn’t move much on price for you.

I prefer silverhill acura, especially for service. They wouldn't move much on the price, but got 1k loyalty and a few things thrown in for free.

They have a few staff that have been ice racing Honda/Acura's for 20-30 years, can get some good stories out of them while you talk business lol.

Thanks for your response - much appreciated! I look forward to your follow-up once you take delivery.

Hi, if its not late, i would recomend go to this website. www.unhaggle.com

Its free and it'll give you the cost price of the car and from there you can bargain with them. Keep in mind that dealer always have 8% mark up. I bought a TLX and i got 4% discount plus they throw in the the all season matts and trunk tray for free. I hope this help.

Great website. It's definitely something to use as a negotiation tool. Thanks!

Wonder if there is a US equivalent site. This site did not like my postal code.

@tino in another thread mentioned that truecar would be the equivalent in the US.

I missed that. Thanks.

Last time I tried Truecar.com, TLX was not an available option. It was this time with one TLX being recorded as sold in the US.

Hello,Ordered my TLX SH AWD with aero package yesterday had wanted to order it in graphite but was told the aeor package was only available in white or black. Have ordered white, but preference would have been graphite.
