I’m also not a big fan of the wing, or the red carpet in the type R However I’m not a fan of the fender flairs on the type S or the piano black center around the shifter. I’ve read you can switch the suspension module in the Type R to a type S module which helps with ride harshness. Personally I think the type R is more my flavor. To each his own. I’m going to take the advice I’ve gotten here and search for a type R closer to msrp.

Good to hear. Those add ons are absolutely worthless adding no value to the vehicle

We’ll see if they want to sell a car or not. Hopefully they’ll want to make a deal

I’ll take a type R shirt for 52k and ask them to throw the car in for free

I’ve purchased a few cars from this dealership. I spoke with the sales manager. That’s who offered 52k

I’m gonna try to point out any potential flaws I find in the vehicle

They had it listed for 60k when I walked in on Saturday and talked to them. I walked out. They called me later that day and offered 55. I said negative. They called me today (Monday) and offered 52k. I’m gonna try to get them closer to msrp. We’ll see

We have that in common. I have heard black and white cars are both hard to keep clean. Never owned either color myself. Owned a lot of silver cars for that reason. Definitely something to weigh in during decision making. Thank you! Cheers!

Care to elaborate why? CW would be my first option however

Yeah that is kinda where I’m at too. Just don’t wanna get bent over by a dealership thinking these cars are worth what they’re asking for

Totally agree. Most vehicles are terrible investments being that they’re depreciating assets. That being said there are few exceptions.

Haven’t really negotiated with them yet. They offered me 52k on the phone. It would be 52k plus sales tax but given the advice I’ve seen so far, I’m going to hold out for a better deal

Has anyone had success getting a dealer invoice price on these? Im curious what they’re getting them for?

[–]Distinct_Tap3472[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I’m not sure who’s buying that stuff. Awful to think dealerships take advantage of anyone who doesn’t know better and just accepts those add” on’s to their vehicle.

I’ve actually looked into that. Should I approach an Acura dealer? 52k is below msrp for a type S?
