WOW I would JUMP all over that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW! Such a deal, I believe I'd call up 'ole Casey the Service Manager and get my order punched right in!
Go for the 4 cl package! 
I think "See dealer for details" means excluding NSX.
I just called and the service writer said the deal doesn't apply to an NSX. He did quote me $1199 for the NSX, wich is a pretty good deal.

They did mine for $1199, I was satisfied with the service and they gave me a loaner at no charge.

bait-&-switch... kinda/sorta! haha. . .
$1199/pre-tax for the 6yr/90k service inclusive of timing-belt/water-pump is quite good, I believe the OEM parts alone near $500+ list-price... that is, till they nickel-&-dime another few hundred on misc' crappe!
On a side-note, I got a Honda master-tech' (Greater Houston) w/ over 25+ years dealership experience who does NSX t-b/w-p service for a fraction of what the dealer & other indie shops charge (just have to bring him the OEM parts). He can do it in less than 1/2 a day, he's that proficient/efficient. . .
I considered purchasing 4, no lie... to lock-in the price for life (as I don't plan to ever sell my NSX, if anything- add another or two)!WOW I would JUMP all over that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NSXLVR said:does source1 automotive pricematch
I wonder if they'd sale (3) of the 4-banger dealio's, which would equal two 6-cylinder services?Go for the 4 cl package!
D'oh! So much for truth in advertising, as I don't own any other Acura vehicles & this marketing/promo' email was personally addressed to me as well as directed at my NSX as-per them stating such as well as including the actual VIN! Grrr...

Sounds like the same one I use.:wink:

Quite honestly, that isn't anything special. Anytime I have ever brought in my Acura or Honda's, I have been given a loaner car even if they don't keep it over night. And no dealership should ever charge you for that.
The 4 cyl coupon is also nearly worthless as all 4 cyl engines now used by Acura have chains and not belts. I guess that would have started with the 02 RSX K series motor. But I guess if someone had an old Integra that hasn't been stolen yet it may come in handy.

The Acura dealer sent me a $9.99 oil change coupon. It was the one and only time they forgot the asterisk.
* NSX not included.

Same deal down here at a local Honda/Acura shop. Coupon stated " $9.99 oil change, all Hondas and Acuras." They honored it and mine was the only NSX they ever saw so they didn't bother changing the coupon to exclude the NSX but they hated to see me pull up. :biggrin:
Of course, its an NSX. :biggrin:
NSX oil is aged in oak barrels for eight years by a master crafstmen trained from ancient generations until it passes strict government regulations to certify it as genuine oem acura NSX oil.
at ~$100/quart I think that's the GT-R's tranny fluid you're talking about...:tongue:
As for the NSX's oil change being more expensive than another Honda/Acura the OEM long filter was quite a bit more than $10 itself...so a $9.99 NSX oil change is quite a deal.
