Looking to purchase a 3-4 yr old Civic-certified-LX model with automatic in the philly area.( 40kish miles).We went shopping this past weekend and asking prices seem insane with dealers asking 15-17k for a 3-4 year old one when I can buy a brand new one for 17.3k.(3 seperate dealers have offered me a new one at that price) Logic to me indicates that a 12k bid ought to get it done (given the price of new ones) What am I missing here and what price should net me a Civic like I am looking for?

You want the same car everybody wants. You want a low mileage Certified Civic. We can't find these cars and when we do, we have to pay dearly for them. They we pay to have them shipped to us. We pay for detailing, recondition and for the certification. We are usually "in them" way over book value. Nothing wrong with your logic if you were shopping for a used domestic or maybe a Korean car. The Hondas, especially Civics just bring crazy money at the auctions. |

thx Isell for your input.All the dealers around here have these high prices on the used ones and are discounting the new ones.Strange times.
