You will get used to it, and in fact I predict you will eventually think that it is the logical way to design a carpet for that space. Many, many more things to worry about, to be skeptical about  , than a one-piece carpet in the back seat of the Civic.

Replying to: backy (Aug 04, 2008 6:45 pm) You could be right, since there is no bump, it might look worse and be awkward overall...yes, this is the first time I've ever seen this, I suppose, and it's been a gazillion years since I bought a new car...so there's tons of things I'll likely be asking about from wiser folks like you who clearly have much more experience with cars in general... Thanks so much!

I'm looking to buy a civic lx - seems they are inflexible with price. What is a realistic offer for OTD for one of these now? The one I looked at yesterday was about MSRP of $18,500 but then had additions on it to make it come to about $20,000 so they said out the door would be about $22,000. That seems steep. What price should I expect would be reasonable. Don't want to sound utterly out of the ballpark. I jokingly said $17,000 and they just laughed. Help! I really don't like these kinds of negotiations but do feel it's a lot of money for a civic! But it is a nice car.

Replying to: elena250 (Aug 09, 2008 9:12 am) Have you read through some recent posts here from the last week or two? You may find some help/clarity in doing so. What sort of additions are you referring to that tack on an additional $1,500? If they are additions you don't want, and they refuse to remove them or the extra $1,500, and this is too steep for you, than I'd advise you move on to another car/ dealer. There are still very good deals to be had on 08's as they want them off the lot for the '09's to come in. BTW, I wouldn't jokingly throw out a number, because they won't take you seriously. Your request to pay a certain amount needs to be well timed. I'm new to this myself, but it seems helpful to not talk numbers till the end, till you are clear and can speak with seriousness and confidence that your offer is fair and reasonable comes when you do the research. Some folks actually offer a few hundred lower in case the manager comes back with a negotiated new offer. Be clear how high you will go and be prepared to walk out if you think the deal is not fair. There are many dealers and many deals to be had elsewhere. Remember--they want to sell cars. Good luck!
