I have sold, literally THOUSANDS of new Hondas over a 12 year period and I have NEVER, EVER had anyone come remotely close to doing anything like this! Good Grief, it's only a CAR! Different strokes, I suppose. It sounds like you're happy and that's what matters. Enjoy! |

I know this may not be the very perfect place for my message, but I do need your advise urgently. I bought a new Honda Civic EX Coupe one week ago, and the dealer had it registered for me yesterday( it took some time for some reasons). I was supposed to go to the dealship to get my car yesterday, but they told me yesterday that there was a scartch on the door of my car. They said they would have it fixed it for me and I wouldn't even see the difference. Can I trust them on this? I said I don't want this car, I would like to either have another one or have my money back, but the dealer told me that this is my car becasue it was registered under my name. Two questions here: 1: Can they really fix it? Will the difference on paint begin to show months later after I have the car? 2: Can I return this car because it has never driven out of the dealership by me? Thank you very much for your help on this issue. luckluck 2:

| You should be fine with that scratch repair. | |
Just the facts;  IMHO this forum would be easier if people left off all the OTD price. Maybe we could have a forum for TTL and discuss how we saved $123 because I live in Glendale while you had to pay more because you live in Texarkana . However, some here feel that the OTD price is important/relevant for some reason. Do people come here and lie about what they paid, my guess is yes they do. Not all, some I would say do, maybe only a few but no one wants to appear the fool. Both Edmunds (hey you're here) and Kelly's Blue Book post INVOICE Price it may not be 100% but it's pretty close (no dealer hold back information) but anyone who got to this forum, clearly can find Edmunds Invoice price for the Specific Make, Model and Trim Level you want  Sure you can get some  tips here. My advise, make your deal on the Internet first worked for me and might help others. It is not for everyone but again everyone and every situation is different. For me 5 days before I bought my car I had not even considered the fact that I was going to buy a car. I kind of found this forum by accident while checking Invoice prices on Edmunds, then reading the "Tips & Advise" section "Confessions of a Car Salesman" is great so if you got time on your purchase, relax read the stuff, most of the stuff in the forum is true, besides everybody knows the best days to buy are January 27th or February 26th (about, they say Friday is the best day) it's cold, everyone got the Christmas Bills the dealers commissions probably don't look too hot. That's old news now (Spring Time buyer; a point to the dealer "cause there are MORE buyers now) so do your research, look up the most recent Invoice price, if you are really ready to buy send an Email to every Honda Dealer you are willing to drive to for a "bottom line" price. Play hardball, either ask the closest dealer to you (if that is important to you) if he will match it or if you just want the best deal see who will beat it. Myself, I would really cut some slack to the original low offer, after all. However, for me someone else is willing to beat that by more than $150 it really was not the best. Honest, good luck- I got my Civic LX Auto Coupe and I like it alot! |

Hi, I plan on buying my Civic LX coupe on Mon but unlike a lot of others, there's only ONE Honda dealership in my city (Wichita,KS). Do I have any deal wiggle room here or am I pretty much stuck with whatever price the dealer slaps on the windshield?

Replying to: leftylibralady (Apr 12, 2007 11:19 am) In my case, the best initial quote I got (slightly below invoice) was from a dealer 50 miles away. A closer dealer said in their quote that they would try to beat any offer by $200, so I forwarded it to them and they did. Plus, they had the color I wanted so I went there. YMMV. Good luck, Josh

I have a quote for a Honda LX for 18156.06 OTD ( 16744 + TTL ) . Do you think I can get this any cheaper ?
