I wanted to know how I can get internet quotes. I live in the mid-west.
 
Should I go to the Honda wesite and request quotes from there or is there anything else I should do.
 
PLEASE ADVICE....I am in the market to buy a VAN rightaway...

Try Edmunds service, but I recommend also using the consumer reports buying kit and your phone. It saved me a few hundred bucks

Yes, by all means, use Honda's website so you can chose what areas from which to solicit quotes. Being in the Midwest means you very close to great prices, whether in Chicago, Louisville, Ohio, or otherwise.

You should get a clue... Learning your customer's motivation might help you to serve them better..
 
It also might give you the upper hand in negotiations...
 
That goes for any sales position... not just car sales...

Explain to me the motivatoin for solicting prices from ILL to OH and PA.
 
Ill listen to anyones opinion. If it were a used vehicle and the price diffence and rarity of the vehicle justified the cost of travel, etc....
 
but on a new one that any dealer can get....
 
I serve my customers great, thank you. If a customer came in here and gave me a line like "____ Honda up 600 miles away said that they could do 100 dollars cheaper." How the heck are salespeople supposed to react??????
 
Please, Id rather buy from someone nearby where its going to be serviced anyway.

Bought an EXL in Frisco (Dallas TX) by ryanocerous
Feb 27, 2006 (7:25 pm)

EXL with mudguards, cargo tray and wheel locks
 
Selling Price = 28569.77
Doc fee = 55
State Inspection = 26.75
State Sales Tax = 1785.61
Dealer Inventory tax = 57.57
License & Registration = 105.30
Total = 30,600
 
Considering the accessories, that puts me $17 under invoice before all the fees and taxes. I'm sure I could've done a little better, but this experience was fairly low effort and relatively painless. I do recommend David McDavid Honda in Frisco. They were very knowledgable and low/no-pressure all the way.
 
I ended up finding someone in my Church who wanted to buy my old Accord, so no trade-in was necessary. That really made this an easy negotiation. Still the process took 3 and 1/2 hours to pick a car and buy it which is a long time with an 11-month old girl along for the ride. Fortunately she did very well.
