Guys if you go to chicago suburb to buy your new honda you can save upto $1100. I saved $1100. Peoria honda dealer does not compromise with the price. They say the invoice price is the dead invoice price..they cannot go below that. So if anyone live in peoria/ bloomington area go to chicago area to get better deal. Saving $1000 worth the 200 miles driving.

mattgg1:
Congratulations on your purchase. You have the car I want to buy for my son and you got it at the right price.
I went to a local dealer on Saturday and they wouldn't budge below invoice, a bit over $20,200. The best Internet quote I have thus far is $19,400, including destination. You did better!
1) Where/who was the dealership. Anywhere around NYC?
2) The dealer told me they were only getting holdbacks on the '06 Accord, no other incentives, so they couldn't go below invoice.
3) They said their new policy is to service only cars bought at the dealership, clearly stating that if I bought the car elsewhere I would not be able to use their service department. Isn't this a violation of their agrrement with American Honda? Don't they have to service any Honda purchased anywhere? Why would they care since Service is a separate profit center?
Thanks for your help!
Bob

Went in looking for the Accord VP automatic. Dealer had one, with 13 miles on it. test drove it, liked it. Offered to trade in my 1995 Oldsmobile with 187K miles on it. I knew invoice was 17,132, i said i wanted invoice + tax and tags, = 18K. No dice. they wanted 18.8 firm.
  
to make matters worse, they offered me 100 dollars for my trade in. My mom and I laughed all the way home, in my 100 dollar piece o crap.
  
I'll probably buy a camry.

 
Well, would you have bought if they met your $18k price but still only gave you $100 for your car? Because, honestly, you aren't going to get any more real money from a dealer for that trade in. Sell it yourself, you'll do much better. Any dealer that shows more for your trade on paper is just taking the hit elsewhere.

A tip: Never introduce the prospective trade-in until after a firm number is decided on and settled. That way, you won't get taken for a ride with negotiating both numbers at the same time. You know, like:
 
You can have the VP for $18,000, but we'll only give you $2000 for your $4000 car. Or, we'll give you Blue Book Value for it, but your car will be $19,500.
 
Negotiate each seperately, or sell it yourself. At that age of the car, you SHOULD sell it yourself, and make and extra $1500 or so over a dealer (reasonable, not the clown that offered $100)price.

They weren't really offering me 100 bux. The salesman was like "you're better off selling your car your own, because they're only offering 100 for the car" so after that it was completely one deal for the car. The trade in was just for laughs..
 
The main point is with holdback and whatnot, it was a decent price. 18 out the door for a car invoiced at 17,132. Especially considering that it was not only the end of the month but the end of the quarter.
 
Oh well, more money for me to roll around in naked.

I wonder if the people in the service dept. would give you that same line. A quick phone call would give you your answer.
 
Everything I've ever heard would make that policy very hard to believe.
