Heritage Honda of Westminster MD - Consumers beware! by 06civic_pain
Sep 22, 2007 (8:58 am)

Read my dealership rating for this Mile One Automotive dealer in Maryland. They defrauded me in the purchase of a brand new 2006 Civic EX sedan, violating my rights as a consumer. Heritage Honda deliberately withheld accident history and repair on their new, never titled car and lied on multiple contract forms.

FYI- I've been in the process for some time now taking this through the few complaint avenues available to fight this all the way e.g. BBB, AG's office, MVA for COMAR violations and obtaining consumer protection legal advice. I'll keep posts on future developments as I go to war with them...

Car Price $18,624 includes dest fee, window tinting, wheel locks, trunk tray, pin stripes, mud guards, fabric protection and exterior sealant. No other fees except TTL. OTD $20,008. This was the first time I purchased over the internet, I will never go into a showroom again without a done deal. Thanks to all who have posted it really helped me price this car right.

I just walked away from $19,390 + tax & tags & dealer processing for an '07 Civic EX Coupe Automatic w/ Nav here in the DC/Baltimore area. I really would like to get the Civic for around $19,500 OTD.
 
I went to another dealer and was able to get the dealer to say he could give me the '08 Civic Sedan Auto w/ Nav & Leather for $21k + tax & tags (I want to say just those extra costs), but we walked away from that too.
 
If I can't get the '07 Civic Coupe EX Auto w/ Nav any lower, I may as well get the '08 for $1500 more.
 
Or, maybe I can grab an '07 Accord EXL w/ Nav for around $23,0xx.
 
What do you guys think?
 
I plan to hit up the dealers I visited on Tuesday armed with a Cashier's check for $19,500. Seeing that I am ready to close (don't need to finance, etc) I hope they'll be more eager to make the deal.

Each market is very different, as is the dealer inventory, '07s are runnning low now. I was very happy to get $75 over invoice incl./add on. Add ons is where is where the dealer tries to make a buck. Invoice on yours is $19,200 and I don't know what your TTL is. I think you are being unrealistic for OTD at $19,500 unless there is no sales tax in MD. As far as paying up an '08, that depends on how long you plan to keep the car for. I had planned on keeping my car for 5+ years. Cash vs finance is no big deal, I think they would rather see you finace as there must be something in it for them too. I paid cash and they tried to get me to finance it. I am very happy with my purchase. I wanted excellent mpg and a fair price and I feel I got both. As long as you walk away feeling good about your your purchase, nothing else matters. As long as you're informed and have done your research you should be good. Make your purchase and don't look back.

Civic coupe LX manual offered at $15,681.00 by eyesonme0

I am planning on buying a Civic coupe LX manual in a month or two.
I received an offer from a dealer through e-mail.
--------------------------------------------
MSRP: $17,355.00
  
YOUR SPECIAL INTERNET PURCHASE PRICE IS:
  
                     $15,681.00*** PLUS FEES
  
                                                          This price is valid only in our Internet Sales Department
--------------------------------------------
Do dealers actually offer this model at this price? Or is this just a bait? And what is the reasonable price that people usually pay?

You need to find out what additional fees the dealer is talking about. The best way to compare prices between two dealers is the bottom line price or as some call the out the door (OTD) price.
Some dealer additional fees might range from $100.00 to $1500.00. You just never know until they explain themselves.

My final numbers for '07 Civic Coupe Auto w/ Nav in the DC/Balt area? by srizvi1
Sep 23, 2007 (2:50 pm)

Ok, I think I'm getting my final numbers. As I mentioned above, the best '07 Civic Coupe w/ Auto & Nav price that I am getting in the DC/Baltimore area is $19,390 + tax, tags, & dealer processing. The best '07 Accord Coupe EXL-Nav Auto price I am getting is $22,990 + tax, tags, dealer processing.
 
Haven't tried to push these numbers in person yet though. So on Monday, I'm going to try and get that Civic price lower. If I can, then I'll go with the Civic. Otherwise, I will go for the Accord since it's $3,500 more.
 
There's a price difference of $5,000 between the invoice price of both cars so I feel as if there should be that sort of savings between the two in prices.
 
However, the difference between Edmunds TMV price between the two is just around $3k ($20,754 on the Civic vs. $23,819 on the Accord) so maybe I have tapped rock bottom prices and really can't negotiate more.
 
Let's see what happens.
 
I don't really care if I push too hard or wait too long to lose out on the Civic because there are still quite a few '07 Accords w/ Nav around the DC area. I really would rather have an Accord anyways.

Bought it today at $16944 (invoice) + tax + tags
which comes out to be $18130 OTD.
 
I had three quotes at invoice, and two that appeared
to be below invoice at first glance(the lowest being $16744). But when unwanted options are added, these
"lower" quotes would lead to a higher OTD price.
 
In summary, I made the best deal I could get while
such a car with the right color is still available.
No regrets.

Wow, where did you buy this car? I am impressed.
 
In general, everyone: my best quotes for 07 Civic Sedan LX have been $16945 before TTL (in the Chicagoland area). I see many others have been paying that price... I do want to negotiate it down but am not sure how much would be reasonable. What are your thoughts?
