I tried online bernardi warranty and finaly when I was about to checkout, it says if you already have a warranty from a Honda Dealer (which ofcourse I have) and then cancelling that and buying this will ad an extra charge of $135. Is there any ways get out of this without paying $135.
 
Thanks in advance

Hi Steve,
 I paid 17500 for the car which included Splash guards and dealer didnt charge me for that. The price doesnt include dest tax n tags and accessories. EX comes with a carpet mat. I got a good Michelin All season mat from Walmart, and other accesories from near by honda dealer and installed it myself.
My advice will be first negotiate the price of the vehicle alone and check the dealer processing fee.
By all the accessories from Bernardi Parts online and u will get instruction how to install them. Buy the Warranty from Bernardi ( bernardiwarranty.com).
If you get a price around mine u shud be fine.

That seems like a very good price on the car. I bought my EX auto sedan right when they were hitting the lots (actually pre-ordered it) and ended up paying close to 20k before TTL. I did not go with the extended warranty, however. Bernardi is a full factory warranty backed by any Honda dealership nationwide?? Those seem like unreal prices on the warranties!

Hi,
Yes the Bernardi is Dealer in MA and they sells parts and accessories online for 30% discount on the original price. They also sells warranty for Honda and Acura.
I learn all these only from couple of messages ago, but I made the mistake by purchasing from the dealer now I am trying to cancel the warranty and buy from Bernardi, but the disclaimer says that "If I have already purchased a warranty from a Honda Dealer and then canceling that to buy the warranty from Bernardi I got to incur $135 extra to match the profit of Honda".
 
Trying to get away without paying this.

Sorry, I was not aware of the additional charge to cancel the original warranty and to buy the online one.
 
As far as service, as it states in the owners manual, a "lighted" wrench will appear on the dash with a code such as A1--that means it is time for the first oil change.
 
It depends on mileage and how you drive your car--but it should show up somewhere around 5,000 miles. No need to do it before the Maintenance Minder (MM) says to do it.
 
There is a button on the dash "select" that you can scroll through by pushing it and it will show you how much "oil life" is remaining. Most people change it around 10-20% remaining. Enjoy your car.

Coming in late here...
 
A Sales Manager will just turn you over to a salesperson. These guys don't do deals themselves. Even if this were to happen you wouldn't get a better deal.
 
That is one oddball car you are looking for and I'm surprised you were able to find one at all.
 
1. It's a leather Civic...not big sellers
2. It's white...one of the least popular colors
3. It's a manual. This makes it VERY hard to sell!
 
The dealer who has it knows all of these things and he knows you are after this oddball car. He also know you are probably pitting him against other dealers. With this in mind, it is very unlikely he would be willing to do a dealer trade to let it go.
 
On the other hand, he has a car that he may have been stuck with. He knows it's hard to sell.
 
I would drive there and try to strike a deal with that in mind.
 
Or, better yet, if you are more flexible on color or transmission choice you may get a better deal.
 
Just don't let a salesperson know you were trying to figure out a way to not pay a commission. This is how we make our living.
 
Good Luck!
