Hi all,
 
Ive been lurking these boards now for over 1 year. I'm currently getting financing through peoplefirst.com (just waiting for the check to come in the mail.) I went to some major Honda dealers in the Queens NY area and one dealer says he'll give me a v6 ex for 23,000. no dio unless i order them. is this a good deal or could a bargin a bit since I have a blank check. Thanks for your help
 
Also is there a section on want to do to your car before you trade it in. Im also trying to trade my 93 civic ex coupe with 68k miles. I didnt tell the salesman that I had a car to trade in yet.

HID headlights on 2003 EX-V6 by skym by rainbow24

I installed PIAA Extreme White Plus bulbs in my 2003 EXV6 Coupe and it looks great, like HID, actual HID will run you $1200-2000 plus installation, not really worth it. The bulbs cost me $55 plus tax and I installed them myself in my garage one night, you do need to pull the fender liner away to put them in.
 
Let me know if you have any more questions on the HID lights, I have done a whole day worth of research on them for my car.

Where can you actually get the complete HID unit? Any good web sites? Or is it OEM maybe in Europe or Japan?
 
Thanks

I really wanted brighter lights on the newer accord untill I saw one coming at me. The current lights are bright enough that I couldn't see the signal light of the car ( car was turning ). Honda put the signal light in a bad place or didn't make it bright enough. So I think I'll stay with the originals for safety sake (let the oncoming cars see my signal as much as possible). maybe I'll add fogs instead.

About EX-V6 w/ NAVI and Auto Mirror by yam358

I just call the dealer and they said that the 26,050 is included Destination charge for EX-V6 w/ Navi and Auto Day/Night Mirror. It seems like $300 - $400 over the invoice. IS that a good price?

"you do need to pull the fender liner away to put them in." Rainbow24: is this a one-person job that someone without any auto experience could do? This will reveal my level of inexperience, but where is the fender liner and what tools would one need to pull it away? How long did it take you to replace the bulbs?
 
Thanks

houston lx pricing by lonestar3

Riship, thanks for ur help. I'm now being quoted 17995 + ttl = 19340 OTD from a couople of the houston dealerships. that's roughly 600 below invoice. Asked other dealers I've contacted to match and they say they can't touch it.
 
Only problem is no one seems to have the lx with side airbags. The only dealership with in stock is asking 18860 +ttl.
 
Let me know if anyone is interested in specifics.

I don't know what to tell you about the price of $17,100 for the 4 Cyl. Accord LX AT I bought New Year's Day other than the following: A Boston area dealer was advertising the same vehicle at $3003 off the MSRP or $20,460 - $3003 = $17,457. I used that add as leverage to get the price of $17,100. To tell you the truth I think I could have done even better that day if I wanted to be completely heartless. I picked out the vehicle I wanted. There were 6 in my choice of color. This was no Demo or damaged vehicle. It was BRAND NEW and unblemished. I just bought at the right place at the right time. I've had the car for over a week now and am very pleased with the ride, quality and fit and finish. I also own a 2002 VW Passat V6 Man. 5 Speed. The Honda is almost as much fun to drive.
If I were you, I would visit the large Boston area Honda dealership's web sites, access their advertised weekly specials and see if it might be worth a trip to the area.

Where did you get the extreme white plus bulbs for $55? What bulb size was it? I have a sedan so it may or may not be the same.

I have the new Accord and have checked the blinkers with lights on (front and back). I've also seen other 03 Accords driving around with blinkers on and I don't have any trouble seeing them. Go figure ....
