Allow me to respectfully disagree with you : ) . The only reason they have incentives is because they have not sold the inventory as planned. Just a few years back Honda used to no deal with you because they knew that behind you there was another willing buyer to pay full price. This is not the case in the current market. The only way they are able to clear inventory is through incentives (either financing and or rebates). The competition has stiffened and now Honda is willing to negotiate with their prices. I bet money the rebates in the 2009 will come back either late this year or by spring of 2009. It will be a fact.

You are both Correct. Supply and demand does play a part as does inventory.
Each manufacturer has they own formula. But, bear in mind, current market conditions are not like anyone has ever experienced. Most vehicles are sold with credit, and right now credit is at a standstill. What we do not know is how long Honda dealers can keep current prices without incentives in this uncertain market.

Just my luck by scottgbwi

I signed the contract & put money down on a car that was intransit to another dealer. I was to pick up in a few days. I just got call saying the other dealer had 4 grand worth of extras on it & I can't get that car unless I pay extra. Am just plain out of luck here? Or am out of line to be upset & think I should have a some sort of legal right to the car? I'm put a ton of effort looking at cars & we finally found the one & color we wanted. Apparently there are no other ones like it of the color in the state.

2008 SE pricing by pdx22

I've been following this board off and on for quite awhile, given the current market I was testing the waters.
 
I have two offers for a 2008 SE for ~$26,800 using request a quote from the Honda website.
 
I have two questions:
How much (if any) negotiation room is there?
Is there reason to buy now, or wait? I'm not in a hurry.
 
Thank you all

Out of luck? Probably
 
Out of line to be upset? No, I would be, too
 
Some sort of legal right to the car? Doubtful.. nothing worth pursuing..
 
I'd just say, "No way".. then, see what happens... A deal is a deal.. if they won't deal, then write them off..

if I were you, I would start over with a new dealer. And if you can wait, order the car you want. just tell them to put it on order in their weekly buy. And you should deduct another $150ish because they won't have to pay a floor plan expense on the car.

Honda cannot keep the slogan "The Car That sells itself" any more. Honda quality is degrading, or other cars quality/reliability are up to par with Honda.

There are other boards to post your reliability opinions. This is "Price Paid".
