I called this salesman today. He said that for a 2008 Honda Civic LX with the options I wanted : Mud Guard, Trunk Liner, Door Edge Guards and Window Tint it was going to be $ 17,800 base WITHOUT the tint. I
 
 made the mistake of telling him that I could get the car for $18,600 in Dallas with the tint, but I refuse to get the car here because of that and that you had gotten the car for $15, 987. (I will pay the TX state taxes here.)
 
Help! Is this a good price? He said that Honda manufacturing is telling the dealerships that this is the best that they can do. He said that I can wait until late August and the price might drop when the 2009s come in, but there might not be any cars left.
 
Any opinons on what I should do, please?

I emailed about 15 dealers asking for their best price including all the fees, taxes, etc.
 
Some of the dealers didn't respond at all, I received quotes ranging from $17,184 to $18,430. I chose the dealer with the lowest combined fees, Babylon Honda.
 
Bronx Honda also appeared to be a good deal but they didn't have silver in stock.
Paramus Honda was also very attractive because they had pretty competitive prices and a number of benefits for internet customers such as free key replacement....HOWEVER, at the end of the day I went with the lowest price.
 
Here's from my bill of sale from Babylon Honda:
 17,269.00 LX AT Civic (includes destination charges)
   1,273.59 Sales tax
     130.00 NY Registration Fees
      67.50 Document Fee/Waste Tire Fee
18740.09 TOTAL INCLUDING TAX
 
Quite a bit of variance in dealer fees. The information below is correct to the best of my knowledge. In cases where the dealership didn't respond about NY DMV fees, I used the highest quoted fee of $228, so the actual fee may be less.
 
Dealer State Emailed LX AT Price Destination Fee NY DMV Fee Fees Total W/Trunk Liner Combined Fees
Paramus Honda NJ Yes $17,184 $0 $215 $199 $17,598 $17,718 $414
Babylon Honda NY Yes $17,269 $0 $228 $0 $17,497 $228
Bronx Honda NY Yes $17,500 $0 $0 $0 $17,500 $17,500 $0
Paul Miller Honda West Caldwell NJ Yes $17,519 $200 $199 $17,918 $399
Sussex Honda NJ Yes $17,734 $0 $228 c $17,962 $18,076 $228
Potamkin Honda NY Yes $17,760 $670 $228 ? $18,658 $898
Curry Honda Yorktown NY Yes $17,869 $228 included $18,097 $18,214 $228
Princeton Honda NJ Yes $18,395 $228 $197 $18,820 $18,928 $425
Hudson Honda NJ Yes $18,430 $228 $199 $18,857 $18,972 $427
 
Good Luck everyone!

Abigail2,
 
I live in Dallas-Tx...Can you tell me the name of the dealer?
Unfortunately the dealers here in Dallas are not very cooperative.

I lived in CA about 45 minutes north of Oakland. Well, lets just say Oakland is not the best of cities....Maybe another area??? I have read many comments in this forum many of which were CA and didn't read any with this complaint. Just a thought.

Go back in time about 3 months and get it then? Seriously, it would be pretty difficult at this time to get that deal, since most dealers in TX are charging MSRP and up, thus making the OTD price even higher... We gave up on a civic and went for a corolla. Good luck though!

new civic lx sedan by tokyodrifter

so i picked up a new civic lx sedan last week. i was quoted 17,149 and with taxes and registration and everything it ended up being almost 19,000 out the door. the only extra i added was an alarm system. i also qualified for 1.9% apr financing for 3 years. overall, it was a decent deal.
 
also, i got quoted for 16,800 for a civic LX coupe.
 
i was in a rush to get the car so i didn't have time to haggle too much. so i think that these prices should be pretty easy to get.
 
good luck guys.
