Estimated Delivery Timeframe for the 200 Preordered Cars

[meki22]

I've owned so many black cars and every time swear I won't get another one. I'd also be tempted to do this with it:

DO EEET

DO EEET

Having two stealth-wrapped cars though... although I have thought about doing stealth in white... or LCM. Or any color really lol.

Also unsure if I want to tack on another $7k.

The Sales manager called to confirm they’re asking $67k for the preorder. He claimed that it counts against his regular allocation.
So I asked another dealership to initiate the transfer. Would love to see the look on his face if I can make that happen.
Also called Acura corporate. They were shocked to hear the dealership is asking $16k above MSRP. Offered to file a complaint, I accepted. I know this is unlikely to make a difference, but it felt good thinking about it. They also gave me the direct number for the dealership’s General Manager. I’ll probably lay call just to see what he has to say. Nothing is ever easy.
Another dealership confirmed my Black ITS was scheduled to arrive June 28 - July 2.

This is so strange. I contacted John Eagle Acura first out of all the dealers in Houston. They outright said ADM would be added. I reached out to Sterling McCall Acura and Sterling Sugarland and both agreed to MSRP. Only Sugarland would put it in writing so that’s who I went with. I got my preorder placed with them.

Oh that is interesting. Recall who you spoke to at Sterling?

Called Sterling Acura in Sugar Land. When I mentioned a preorder ITS at MSRP, Mike, the Sales Manager, said he wouldn’t commit to any price. I didn’t tell him I had a preorder. Just shady the way he avoided my questions. They too want $15k over MSRP. Not sure why I thought an Acura dealer would have more Integrity.

All these dealers always playing games! I contacted them before the preorders and when mine went thru, I was the only one that got it thru their dealer. I’m sure things have changed since then with more ppl interested in the ITS.
So did you end up sticking with Sterling McCall or is John Eagle transferring it over? How did you find out your VIN?

Really disappointing to see a dealer trying for $15k over on a reservation.

Yeah, I bought a A-Spec from Sterling McCall Sugar Land in April and they told me ITS would initially not have markup, but once their allocation filled they were going to have markup

Another dealership contacted Sterling about a transfer, but they refused. I’ll call the General Manager Monday, but I’m not hopeful.

I was able to get the VIN from John Eagle the same day Sterling told me they didn’t see a VIN. Terrible experience so far.

Anyone get the ability to finalize a bill of sale yet? Found out vin assigned to St Louis on Auto Trader before salesman so don’t know that he gets news faster than this forum.

I still don't have my VIN from Leta, but it's being built Tuesday supposedly. I wanted to go Mungenast but it was really whatever web window was going to actually get through for me.

Just bought the black/black type s from Mungenast. Absolutely no fit/fitment issues by the head light or paint issues. My local Acura in Nashville had nearly all their integras with misaligned panels so that is a major relief for me. OTD was $52,595 + $199 doc fee. They matched a Nashville Carvana offer less $700 ($30,700) for a 22 WRX Premium which is amazing considering they are a dealer. They also beat the rate my credit union was offering of 5.19 for 66 months with a 5.05 for 66 offer through Acura. Finance guy was pissed I declined all additional warranty despite him having to buy the rate down to beat my union. Tried to sell me a $1500 add on to double the warranty period which would probably be a good deal if I was into insurance. Long story short car is totally worth MSRP and then some if you’re desperate. Quieter and handles better than WRX (20/22), 22 GR86 which were my last 3 cars which had to go due to various comforts that weren’t there. I’m ok losing AWD with the added comforts this car has plus performance. Just some rambling thoughts for you all who are on the fence. There really isn’t a manual transmission car that has more comfort than CTR/GRC that isn’t unreliable or a hazard to drive with the inputs (Golf R). Obviously people will want more, but at the end of the day what this car offers is perfected drive wise which is what you are paying for.

That’s a good deal. Well done and congrats!

My dealer emailed today that my ABP is in Georgia already, but won’t be delivered until next week.

I'm curious if anybody with a pre-order for Tiger Eye has received a build/delivery date. I've been harassing my dealer since I received the email from Acura, but haven't gotten any info out of them yet.

As of yesterday afternoon no date for mine.
