Hi! I used this forum when I was researching, so I figured I'd 'give back'. I bought a 2009 EX-L with a manual transmission, Crystal Black Pearl, this past weekend. Got it at Dublin Honda (Dublin, CA) from their internet sales dude. They matched the price from Zag/USAA/Overstock.com - $19,581 (which includes destination fee). It's about $300 under invoice - I didn't want to have to negotiate in person. With San Francisco sales tax running at 8.5%, my OTD price was $21,458. I generally liked my sales guy, he was low pressure. Just pissed that he conned me into signing a credit check form, even though I came in with my own financing. 'Business manager', AKA F&I guy, was getting frustrated that I wanted to understand everything on the form I was signing (he was not my favorite). Anyway, I was the first person to drive the car, took it home last Saturday, now I'm  380 miles. First tank got 33 MPG combined, though I do mostly highway driving. I'm happy with my purchase!

Replying to: sellthesedown (Dec 24, 2008 3:58 pm) I am planning on buying a 09 Civic LX Auto Sedan, and I have the best internet quote from Dublin Honda. I read some really bad reviews on the web about Dublin Honda's sales force. I am dealing with a guy called Tito Perez, and wanted to know who your sales person was, and did you have to watch out for anything else. It is encouraging that you had a positive experience. Thanks

OK, I ended up buying a VP automatic in Royal Blue. Happy as a clam.  Price was the best I could get (16,230 OTD) and the car was actually in stock. There was a big after Christmas sale at Boch dealership in the Boston area. Other dealers should take note: I communicated online (in a chat mode) with a salesman and we agreed on a price online, then I came to the dealership and actually was shown the car I bought and documents were almost ready when I arrived, with the price we agreed on. Boch claims they are the largest Honda dealership in the world. I don't know if this is true or not, but I was quite impressed. I cross-shopped against Corolla, but could not bring myself to buy it, Civic is so much nicer. Good my 2-week search ended. Happy Holidays to all! |
