I don't even think RETAIL from a dealer or even certified it would be worth $16k. in fact they show retail at $14,710. We can't see the car, but if it is in great shape then $9k-10k would be about what you could expect to get for it trading in, and maybe $1k or more less if you sold it to Carmax. $7,500 would be a really bad offer unless the car had lots of issues (body work, frame damage, engine problems, etc). Of course, it is a negotiation. They offer you x you counter with y and you settle for z. That said, if they start this low you are not likely to talk them up to $9k or $10k, but since you looked the value up wrong you would never be happy with even a fair $10k offer  . Dennis |

Replying to: cooltown (Jan 20, 2008 10:52 am) Remember, this is your FRIEND! both of you have to feel comfortable with the price you pay. If your friend feels pressured to sell the car quickly, he may take your low offer and be forever resentful. If he refuses your offer you can bet he will feel you are trying to take advantage of him and his need to get rid of the car. If you buy it thinking that you paid too much (or people here tell you that you did) this too can strain your relationship. If the car develops a problem shortly after you buy it, you may just think he knew about it and didn't tell you. For the sake of your friendship, you may be just better off buying a different car. There are lots out there to choose from!

I am very interested in this car. I think they are a fantastic improvement over the bland looks of the older Hondas. My problem is this: It has just come out and I wouldnt imagine they would want to make a decent cut in the retail price. The one I'm interested would be the top-of-the-line 4 cyl. coupe WITHOUT the Navigation System.. When I looked up the prices on Edmunds...it stated that there were no additional options on this model...HOWEVER...they start quoting after-market prices like $500 plus for a front end guard, etc. etc.,etc. and even an extra charge for splash guards and body side mouldings. This kind of ticked me off. Does anyone know anything about this and should'nt I wait a few months until the stock of vehicles goes up and it may be easier to get a decent price?? I would appreciate any advice. Thanks... Edman 222 |
