Replying to: packer3 (May 24, 2008 2:41 pm) I looked through Honda's homepage. On their webpage, they list anti-theft system as standard on both the LX and the LX-P. Does this mean that the LX have the alarm system and the engine immobilizer? I was surprised to see engine immobilizer listed on Honda's webpage. I thought only Camrys have the immobilizer. I just came back from a visit to my dealer, the one that offered me $20,000 including destination. Turned out the dealer wants to add another $400 on top of that as "dealer prep fees." Unbelievable. I was hoping to knock off $400 from their original offer, now they want to add $400 on top of their original offer. I walked. I test drove the car. The plastic wheel covers on the LX do look ghetto. They are thin, and bend VERY easily. I can't believe Honda used this kind of thin plastic for their wheel covers. My now sold mid 90's car had better thicker metal wheel covers.

Replying to: packer3 (May 24, 2008 4:09 pm)  What does the anti-theft system include? The alarm and the engine immobilizer? I am actually thinking about partial financing at this point. I am thinking about putting down maybe $5,000, and finance the rest. What kind of interest rates should I aim for?

Replying to: r0yalty (May 23, 2008 9:31 am) car price :$23,029.92 + 7.75% tax + $55 doc fee + $245 License fee *car price includes dest. fee =$25114 OTD got financed at 2.9% There is nothing extra on the car. All other dealerships would not match it once i took the quote to their dealership. Some wanted to charge destination fee, some wanted to charge a higher APR. Some said they couldn't take lojack off, or protection pkg off. Bunch of Bs'ers! |

Replying to: tracemiller (May 25, 2008 6:59 am) It could have been a dealer trade which would account for the miles. For every person who would be bothered by 79 miles there would be 20 others who wouldn't be. Just pick another car if that's a problem. |

Replying to: tracemiller (May 25, 2008 6:59 am) Don't you ever test drive before you buy? Would you want the dealer telling you that you can't test drive you have to pay and then get to drive the car? Or that they only have single car you can test drive and you can't drive the trim level you want - just purchase it on faith? Of course you would not put up with that, so the dealer ends up with test drive miles and many, if not all, of the cars on their lot. If you want to test drive the car in the trim level and color you want, but then refuse to buy it because it does not have "zero" miles on it then you are really being ridiculous. Do you open an item in the store to check it out, then put that back on the shelf opened and take a sealed package to buy? If you do, then that would explain your attitude  . Most of us can't have it both ways - we want to test drive any car we want AND get a zero mile car when we decide. So you have to either give up test driving or getting a zero mile car. Dennis

As a zero mile car. they always have a few miles when they come off the trucks and during the Pre-Delivery Inspection they get driven too. Our Hondas always have at least ten miles on them. |
