Anyone buy a new NSX and NOT finance through Acura?

[LiveFromNY]

Being told by my salesperson that the $30k incentive is dependent on financing through Acura Financial. Anyone here buy a car and either pay cash or finance/lease through anyone other than Acura?

That is correct..... There is no prepayment penalty, so seemed worth it to me to get a $30K rebate. I took advantage so no comment on cash or other financing sources.

Get the loan and incentive then re-finance it or pay it off in a month or two. The rate (4.1%) isn't a market rate. One of the dealers I talked to said they would even help me refinance it at a more competitive rate. Why would you pass up $30K just to finance it elsewhere from the start?

Looking at a red one today with 186k msrp. What would be the lowest it could go on a new non demo car? Also no penalty to refinance next month?

No penalty to payoff. I'd say about $12-$14K off MSRP before incentive seems to be the going rate right now.

Discounts are averaging $40-45K, including the Acura rebate, but less on low optioned cars. If you're ready to buy, tell them if they can sell it to you for $143K you'll buy it. If they say no, go on to the next one. There are still a couple hundred for sale out there new, in my estimation. Give the dealer an ultimatum and be willing to walk if they say no. My first offer got countered, and I said no thanks, then an hour later, bought a car for $7k less than the one I first made an offer on. Some dealers will deal, and some won't. Which color red?? Curva or Valencia? The dealer I bought mine from just took delivery of a Valencia red one...... If you're interested, I can forward contact info.

I probably wouldn't. But I was initially inclined to either pay cash or perhaps do a corporate lease through Putnam that has tax advantages beyond what Acura can offer. I appreciate everyone's input.

Well, good luck! Hope you end up owning one whichever way you go!!

186400 msrp with total discount was down to 145000. With 25000 down the payment on a 36 month lease was 983. No money Down was 1800 a month. They offered 3.99 on 72 thru a local credit union. I figured I’ve got 2k more to drop. It was Valencia did not have outside cf and engine.
