that's why i like PPF; you don't have to worry so much when hand washing about scratches/swirls as you would with just naked paint. i have Xpel ultimate on my BMW, which is glossy, so i'm not quite familiar with maintaining Xpel stealth. is there any risk of the matte look/texture on Xpel...

Thanks. I reached out to them a few weeks ago as Seattle isn't too bad of a trip from SF, but I was told they were only selling to people in-state.

Which dealer?

I think it is fairly accurate. But at this point it probably is showing both demo (mostly white) cars, the initial 200 preorders too, as well as any incoming allocations. I noticed that dealers who previously never responded to me or said they weren't sure then got back to me when they had...

While it might not look as nice, I'd probably not want anything cut so as to leave it a solid piece. My current car was fully filmed almost 8 yrs ago immediately after purchase and I've only ever hand washed my car (regular hose, 2-bucket method, no pressure washing or mechanical/automated...

I too inquired about one of these "in transit" Apex Blue cars with a dealer, but I was told that it was in fact one that had already been reserved online.

"freight and pdi" shouldn't be a charge. MSRP is $50,800 (with premium paint); $52,959 w/ destination of $1,195. That's set from Acura itself. And whats an "air tax"? Also, premium paint should be part of that MSRP. That anti theft coverage is an addon of course EDIT: actually.... i just...

I spoke with someone from Acura of Oakland (California)--$10K markup on the Type S. Their demo car is for viewing only unless buying. Sales guy justified the markup as the car was "rare." I countered that about 3000 of these cars will be made per year to which he said there are 2000 Acura...

That's why I went out of state last winter to buy our family car, a hybrid KIA Sorento that Bay Area dealers wanted $8K markup. An MSRP dealer in Colorado was so used to selling cars to Californians... I tied that purchase to a family ski trip. But looking at the Integra, I may just have it...

Wow...

Yeah don't forget that ADM'S and accessories are taxable. So that's almost another 10% in CA. "Dealer Document fees" vary from region to region , and may be regulated. I was told that in CA the fee is capped by the state at $85. In contrast, i bought a car out of state in Colorado last year and...

I've used 3M Crystalline in the past due to its high solar/heat rejection properties. it's great on the windshield, as the crystalline 70 isnt dark, but offers nearly as much heat rejection as darker tint. There are not too many 3M installers. I've had 2 cars tinted at Quality Auto Glass and...

They want $15k over for their demo...

CA: Los Gatos Acura: $15k markup on demo vehicle CA: Concord, $15K markup on demo, potentially more with installed accesories. NE: Acura of Omaha: MSRP + $1200 accessories+ $1500 windshield and wheel protection package.

Nice. Curious, what is pricing with Acura of Concord or Oakland?

I've been following ITS news since March and have been a lurker in this thread. Living in the Bay Area, CA, I'm looking for MSRP dealers on the West Coast. But I'm not finding much success. I tried to get on some wait lists in March/April, but my local dealers were not taking any deposits (or...
