#194 of 9467 CRV- LX-2W in Atlanta by yengiang. do NOT recommend Gwinnett Honda by hongxy Jul 10, 2003 (8:19 pm)
My experience in Gwinnett Honda was not good. They are the biggest Honda dealer in Atlanta area but the sales/manager are not nice, and put pressure on you. I stay away from them, and got my CR-V Ex auto from Nalley Honda at Union City. Nalley's service was great compared to Gwinnett Honda.
#195 of 9467 CRV-2004 Rochester, NY by tigerinroc Jul 16, 2003 (4:22 am)
Went to a dealer here in Rochester NY to look for a 2003 CRV two days ago. Did not realize that you have to be on a list to get a CRV, even to get a 2003 in September!!   Well, tried to make a deal for a 2004 which comes in October. The deal for a 2004 LX 4WD Silver is:   $20,560 (2003 MSRP) - $700 (discount) + $1,295 for accessories (security system, fog light kit, front splash guards, floor mats, and leather steering wheel leather), excluding NYS tax of 8.25% (Ouch!).   Is it a good deal?   Thank you for your thoughts.

The 2003 comes w/ floor mats.   I went to hondacars.com. There you can build your car and add accessories to get an overall MSRP. The accessories you chose(minus the floor mats) have the following MSRP(w/o installation charge).    Exterior Accessories (installation not included)  FRONT SPLASH GUARDS $59.00  FOG LIGHT KIT $329.00  SECURITY SYSTEM $199.00  KEYLESS ENTRY $119.00  SECURITY SYSTEM ATTACHMENT $29.00    Interior Accessories (installation not included)  LEATHER STEERING WHEEL COVER $59.00   The total is $794 w/o installation. That leaves $501 for installation of those accessories. That seems high.   Is the dealer forcing you to add these accessories or did you choose these? If they are forcing then try some different dealers. Here in Texas I found dealers that forced you to buy certain accessories and some that did not.   I used the edmunds.com and and dealer on-line price qoute services to get a good price.   Good Luck.

Check out carsdirect.com   In my area they're offering the EX for $21,510 before tax. title and dest. Still, it seems like a darn good deal.
#198 of 9467 bad experience.... (my first car) by poorstudent1 Jul 17, 2003 (10:04 pm)
I just bought a Blue 2003 EX in Bethesda, Maryland. This was my first car and I must say that it was not a good experience. I started looking a couple of weeks ago and after visiting a few places, I stopped by this one after work. I was greeted by a guy who, in the beginning, was very pleasant. We went for a test drive; he showed me the car and explained it to me in great detail. So we sat down and he and I began discussing some numbers. He knocked off prices left and right, and he also offerred me a $500 coupon so i thought i was getting a good deal. After a few minutes, I told him i wasn't ready to buy yet for financial reasons but will definitely buy from him in a couple of weeks. So we shook hands and I left with sense of hope that i would be gettting a good deal.   Two weeks go by and I returned to the same sales guy to buy my car. maybe he thought he already 'had' me, but the attitude and attention i was getting just a couple of weeks before was GONE. he sent me on a test drive by myself, i waited until he was ready for me, etc. And when it came time to sign the papers, he became VERY aggressive. He also neglected to explain to me the options that were already attached to my cr-v until the very last minute. he just asked me for the color. he did not take the time to show me the exact car that i was going to buy. I had no idea there were going to be additional charges to the msrp. by the way, the discounts he offered me a couple of weeks back wasn't even mentioned, but instead he gave me the internet discount which was much less than i had anticipated.   this was my first car. so i didn't know any better. was I just too naive?   then, "additional options lady" came to sell me the special rust proofing, paint protection stuff, and an alarm (not cheap). and the finance guy told me about the the extended warranty (he never told me the price. it was diluted in my monthly charge) And NONE of these thing were mentioned by my sales guy. had i known about all these things, i may have chosen a different car.   but when do i step in and speak out about my concerns? those guys definitely wanted me out the door ASAP with the car. Am i a retard?   i am very happy with the car. running boards, mud guards, door edge guards, wheel locks, pin stripe (none of which i really needed). but i only got $645 off of everything even though i left them a HUGE down payment (75% of MSRP). i ended up paying close to $23,400, NOT including tax, destination fee, dealer fees, etc. SO i have very mixed feelings right now. It sucks to know that you paid too much.   anyways, if you have any inputs, i would appreciate it. thanks.
#199 of 9467 This is why I like about Scion. by tcpip1 Jul 18, 2003 (3:12 am)
This kind of car buying experience makes all the car sales person look bad. No wonder buyers in various forums discount a sales person's claim, even if it is true.   It seems Toyota has a step ahead in addressing this very issue for the younger folks. No wonder Toyota is a strong car company on this planet.   Testing drive a Scion XB is on my list next year.

Don't beat yourself up over this. Its a typical scenario for a first-time car buyer. It appears you paid MSRP for your car and the added options. While that isn't a great deal, I think you'll find quite a few people on this board who have paid the same. That deal is over, learn from it, and enjoy your new car. You made a great choice, and the salesman can't screw that up.   Not sure about Toyota being ahead on anything when it comes to customer service. In my area, they are the worst dealers.   regards, kyfdx
