OK - wife and I are ready to purchase a new TL. What is the most popular
color - seems like white is hard to find here in sc penna. Any wiggle room
in the price - the TL is so popular, seems like the dealer is doing us a
favor to just quote the sticker price. TIA

If there is only one dealer where you live, you have few options on price,
pay what they ask or buy another car.

You also asked " what is the most popular color ? " It never ceases to amaze
me how someone can have the money for an expensive car and be unable to make
simple, personal decisions for themselves. Do you want to buy the most
popular color, or NOT BUY the most popular color ? Why don't you look on
the dealer lot,. or ask him, or is that too difficult for you too ? My
goodness !

Supply and demand will make the difference. When I bought mine I serached
area dealers on line ( many have inventory online ) and found one close
enough to be practical who listed 89 TL's in inventory. They were willing to
deal on IN STOCK TL's except for NAV. Only had 2 nav system cars, full
sticker. That was 3 months ago and I see now that my dealer has 11 nav's so
that may be factor now in my area, becoming more available.

George in NY - good luck

I read somewhere that black is the most popular TL color.

Kinda surprised me, I don't think black is the most popular color for
any cars here in Los Angeles, except maybe S-class Mercedes.

Saw a dark red TL the other day, that really caught my eye!

White is generally a top color for any car.

Around Chicago, Silver is a pretty hot color, especially for the Navigation
version. Price is close to sticker,but there should be some wiggle room w/
the dealer, especially on any options.

I bought a white with navi for 34695 in the SF bay
area. I could get without navi for 31600, but finally
decided to go with navi.

I did not order the car. I called around and found
Stevens Creek Acura had white with parchment.
Went there and bought it.

Yeah silver seems to be popular for just about any luxury or near luxury
make in Chicago. Black is right up there too. You go to a BMW dealer and
you could swear they only make BMWs in two colors

White is popular here in the Phoenix area. I had no trouble finding
one and paid $33,616 including nav system, about $1,500 off retail.
