Re: $1000 below invoice by celica115

As you read this board in the past week. FIRSTCIVIC1 and I just purchased the LX. So far the lowest price is $14,300. The dealer invoice is 15,261 in NYC. I am not sure in S. Florida. Just enter you zip code in "New Cars", and you will see the different between NYC and Floira. Plus, it is almost the end of the year. I am sure you can do better than that.
 
firstcivic1, I agree with bd21. There is no need extended warranty especially for Honda.

04 civic EX by r8412

Purchased a 04 EX auto yesterday for 16,500. Took the 2.9 from Honda as well. I decided to get the 7/100 b-to-b warranty. My wife drives a ton so she wanted it for a peace of mind. First quote on the warranty was 1600 bucks but when all was said and done, 700 was the final answer. I couldn't believe the finance dude. He also tried to slip the bogus (if you get hurt or die insurance) on the contract. I gave him hell and he took it off and lowered his warranty price. Finally, when I drove the car off the lot the anti lock brakes light was on. I went right back and made them exchange the car for another one. he he, free oil change and mud guards too. What a great day huh?

I think you were lucky that the dealer had the same one in stock.

04 Civic VP by pkomma

Atlanta area
 
Just put deposit down on the Civic VP in Fiji Blue (really great looking color). Pretty much last night started calling around, carsdirect was listing 13064, asked if people could match. Three dealers refused, two beat it. Ended up being 14135 out the door (7% tax for Fulton county). These guys took a hit, got the 2.9% on the car too. Lanier Honda and Hennesey Honda out in the boondocks of the Atlanta metro area were the ones willing to sell for the least.
 
Whole experience was an absolute breeze. There was no negotiation, after I'd called the dealership he called me back and dropped that price on me and I just took it. Got there, he didn't calculate title and lemon fee (21 bucks) threw that on and that was end of it. After going to several other dealerships in Atlanta area just to see cars (felt like pulling teeth) business at Lanier was really great.

Just bought my Civic on the internet by bd21

I dealt directly with the internet sales manager at Treadwell Honda in Mobile, AL on-line and firmed the deal up with a phone call and my credit card deposit. I got an 04 Civic LX 4-door sedan, automatic transmission with side air bags in Shoreline Mist. They are ordering it, so it will be a month or so before I pick it up. I did the same thing with them before. My total price including all processing & dealer fees to include a car tag is $15,100. I just have to pay my straight sales tax. I live in Florida(6% sales tax), so by the time it's all said and done it will be in my driveway for $16,006. No trade was involved and I'll use Honda 2.9% financing if it is still available when my car comes in, if not my credit union has 4.25%. I've been looking for a while, this is the best that I could do within a 120 miles of Ft. Walton Beach Florida.

i feel better about my reliability of my civic.
i will wait until closer to 3 years to see.
i will only put 7500 - 10000 miles max a year.
buying on the net in chicago was easy with nine dealers to email i got many prices. but at almost 1000 below invoice it was great.
i sent them the credit app over fax ahead of time.
my total time in dealer was 2.5 hrs from hello to test drive to paperwork to finance guy. i guess that was good.
thanks again.
 
now i need a digital camera know of any good discussion boards?

I think that's the way to go. I'm jealous of the deal you got up there. Can you break the deal totally down, so we all can understand it? I assume the $14,292 included shipping($490), so what did they charge you for any processing fees, deposal fees, doc fees, etc. Did you trade anything in and how many miles were on the car when you picked it up? What was the full price excluding your state tax only? I recommend the Cannon A-70, go to pcworld.com and look at reviews on cameras under $500. You can get it delivered to your house for about $265.
