What is this discussion about?
Honda CR-V, Wagon, SUV

I am working with a dealer in the Atlanta, GA area and received a quote I believe can go down a few hundred to be a "best price" out the door.
2013 Honda CR-V EX AWD
$ 24,731.00 Vehicle Price ( Includes Destination )
$ 599.00 Administrative Fee
-------------------------
$ 1,826.93 7% tax
$ 22.00 State Fees ( Title and Lemon Law )
-------------------------
$ 27,947.93 Total Price / Drive Out*
*Splash Guards , Paint Protection Included
What do you think? Flexible?
I would jump on this deal in a second if the molding and edge guards were included since the total price is a few hundred more than competitors.

I got a second quote last night from BURNS Honda in NJ. Here is what they said,
$24,675 ---- CAR
$695 ---- VEK (Vehicle Enhancement Kit) -- includes mud guards, hand painted pinstripe,
wheel locks, acid inscribed window etching, custom fit cargo tray
$337 -------- body side molding installed
$344 -------- door visors installed
$272 -------- hood air deflector installed
$1,842.61 --- TAX
$249.00 ----- DOC
$7.50 ----- Tire tax
$301.00 ----- DMV
$28,723.11 ---- Total
I think this price should be lowered. From my experience of getting online quotes and going to the dealership in NJ, they alway add some type of package. One dealership added DECOR ($595) and now I see VEK ($695). I am planning to go to another dealer today and seeing what they can do for me. I will keep everyone posted. Can accessories be negotiated. Brian thanks for all the great advice you have given me. I really what to get the car for about 625 cheaper then I think it would be a good deal.

Rule number 1
Stop running around to all these dealerships wasting your time and gas.
Check dealerships inventory first.... before calling them.
Find as many dealerships that are closest to your home. Call each dealerships Internet manager and tell each one you will buy today if he meets your price offer and options wanted on vehicle. Seems like most CrV's have alot of dealer add on's..
Once you found the deal your looking for.... you could give dealer a small refundable deposit to hold car or drive to dealership to seal deal..
Do not trust any sales person telling you to come in. Internet or Sales Manager speak with first to confirm your deal..
The last 2 days of any month are the best time to buy. If you could...You buy the last day of any month this will help you get the best deal of the month. Some dealers will move a car off there lot on the last day cheaper than beginning or middle of month trying to meet that manufactorers selling incentive for the month.
good luck
Brian

Brian is right! You can do all this by phone and email. Everything is negotiable. If you had a quote from another dealer for less money I am sure the VEK package would go way down and possibly disappear. If you don't want it tell to leave it off your car! $695 is a lot for mud guards, wheel locks and a cargo tray.

Mudguards online $67.... very easy to install

cargo tray.............$70
Dont let these dealers rip you off on accessories. Check online prices first

Does anything think tossing in an add-on to that price is asking too much?

Thank you all of the contributors shared the buying experience.
After I read thru last 6 months of this forum, I learned many tricks in how to negotiate/buy a new car. Then, I bought a new 2013 Honda CRV EX-L 2WD. out the door price is $26,714.
Here is the breakdown:
$26,176.50 Car (including destination charge, splash guards, wheels locks, & lifetime powertrain warranty*)
$300 Tax
$39 Tag
$198.50 Closing fee/doc
*Lifetime powertrain warranty needs to pay $100 deductible each time.I can do my own maintanence like oil change & tune up.
I heard Honda's engine & transmission is very good. I hope I don't have to use the warranty!

Hello Everyone,
I bought a first car with the 1st dealer that I went to in Maryland. I'm not sure if I got a good deal or not and was wondering if I could get some advise! I guess I can't return it but wanted some views.
Got the
CRV 2013 AWD LX with Wheel locks and Paint matched door moldings (as per the receipt)
for $23,000
plus Taxes $ 1,392
dealer processing charges $ 200
Tags $ 187
Platinum Coverage service for 100,000 miles or 7 years for $ 1,198.15 (is this a good deal? I have no clue but I agreed to pay for this).
The OTD vehicle price was $24,779 plus $1,198.15 for the extra platinum coverage.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have the following questions:
1. What is the average OTD price for the 2013 CR-V EX-L with Navigation in NJ/NY.
2. Is CR-V EX-L w/Nav a better option or Acura RDX AWD w/o Nav. Assuming (based on the consumer discussions) that Honda's navigation system is not all that great.
