Yes, that is true. I have been following this news group for almost
1 year. I always wanted to buy MDX but was waiting for the closing of my house that we bought a year back. We just went through closing a month back and I couldn't wait any longer. So, I started checking availablity in NY-NJ tristate area. I did not want to pay over MSRP. Actually MDX scene seems to
have improved. There are still dealers out there (like East Brunswick Acura etc.) who tries to convince you that people driving Acura are the only one who paid over MSRP and rest are
just waiting & waiting for delivery. But then there were quite a few delars who are willing to sell at MSRP with deposit. It seems that wait has reduced now to couple months. Also, there are quite a few cancellation coming and if you happen to be there
at right time, you may get it quicker.
That's where I got lucky. I actually found MDX at 2 dealers for immediate delivery, one David Accura in PA and one Montclair Acura in NJ. I went with the later as I am in NJ and it is closer.
I was looking for Base in Black with Saddle interior. When I called
Montcalir Acura, I got transfered to Dilip Stephen who told me
he has one coming on Saturday in Black with Black interior in Base
and it is available due to cancellation. Although it wasn't the interior I was looking for I aggreed to pay 500$ deposit and reserve. Next I got fax back from him in 10 min with actual VIN#.
That same evening he called me and told me has another cancellation for Black with Saddle. I couldn't be any more happy.
I was extremly happy with his service, he contacted my Insurance agent, applied for Honda financing and finised all paper work in 2 days before I walked in to delaership last Saturday.
There it was, my black killer MDX newly washed, 10 miles on odometer waiting for me. We finished formality in an hour, picked
up MDX and drove back home. I realized it was all worth waiting
for, this truck really cruises.
More latter,
Regards.
