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! |

I just ordered the EX w/ 5 speed transmission including rear deck lid spoiler (without brake light) for $18,553 in CT. This did not include paperwork and a small destination charge and some garbage window etching for $299 which they don't tell you about and is actually printed into the contract. I don't know if this is a good price but a few other dealers I tried wouldn't really beat it however I bet they would have matched. Let me know if anyone has any comments about this price. |

Can someone please post the invoices for each trim level of Civic Si Coupe and Sedan? I found it frustrating that for some reason Edmunds still don't have that information available.

Local dealer internet manager offering new 2009 Civic LX for $17500 plus $650 destination plus tax, tags and $399 "documentation fee". Dealers seem to imply that internet deals are their best prices. Has anyone been able to bargain down from an internet price?

Replying to: talk2me2 (Nov 24, 2008 10:24 pm) Looking at this forum it looks like I could have done quite a bit better then the quotes I received. I had 3 dealers quote the car from the internet and they were all within $200 of each other here in CT. Others seem to have paid quite a bit less. |

Replying to: goheels2 (Nov 24, 2008 11:50 pm) Anybody can post anything. Why WOULD a dealer lose big money on a popular car?
