The dealership is Cookeville Honda in Cookeville TN. Between my wife and i we have bought 5 cars from them in the past,,, but anyway i posted in previous threads how wonderful they are,, my credit score was also really,really low,,, if you go back to the post #'s 2835 and 2838 you can read my story. I did get the car for no money down also.

Yes it makes sense, thank you.
 
And as I did state, I made it known that I was trying to sell my car first. The dealer was and is nice, has not tried to sell me a lot of other accessories, they were mentioned, but no pressure.
 
I am going to one more dealer to check on their price verse what I currently have. This other one only has "1" in stock, and quoted me an online price of 17000, plus the usual tax title, license, etc.
 
Now does anyone know why is it some dealers use KBB and others use NADA for book values? NADA actually has higher average trade in values than KBB.

I'm looking to purchase a new car in the next few days, and am leaning towards the 2006 Civic EX 4-door automatic. I've been making contacts with dealers over the Web, and have been quoted the following prices: 19117, 19110 and 18960 (though the last one has not yet replied to verify model/features). I'm in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Does anyone think I can do better? I'd appreciate your advice...thanks!

In my experience, dealers will try to use whatever reference will give the LOWEST trade in value, although the State of DE uses NADA for retail value (used cars only, like people moving in)to assess State Doc Fees. When I was asking about potential values for my stolen car, they whipped out a publication called 'Black Book' for used car values. I think it's a local production, based on local auction prices. YMMV.
 
Personally, once you've gotten the best deal that you think is going to come on the straight purchase of your new car, expect a somewhat lower than average trade in value. But at least you don't have to worry about selling your own car.
 
As an additional aside, the two cars that I've traded in both had somewhat alarming mechanical issues, so I was more or less glad to take what I could get. In fact, when we bought our Kia Sedona, and they offered $4000 for a rough '97 RAV-4 (hit three times, disturbing clank when it went over bumps, 100K+ miles you get the idea), I told my wife take it and run!

I checked the Mark Roberts Honda website and they have a handful of EX 4 dr/auto for $18488, which is roughly $500 less than your lowest offer. For what it's worth they seem to be straight shooters and plenty of people fly in from out of state to buy (if you believe this website among others). Roberts is located in Bartlesville, OK about an hour north of Tulsa and roughly 6-7 hours from Dallas/Fort Worth. Roberts' prices have been known to get folks better deals from the Tulsa dealerships, too. I wish I'd have known about them in 94 when I bought my Civic since I only live 1 1/2 hours away.
 
I don't agree politically with the owner, but that is for another chat group.

Hi, I have a quote for a price of 18,525 (includes all fees, tax, license, destination) here in the Los Angeles area for a 2006 Civic LX. This seems pretty good to me - anyone have an opinion?
 
Thanks!
