Replying to: bshor (Sep 07, 2005 10:30 pm) HP is now rated at 156 for '06, down from 160, but we all know nothing changed except how they measure it - the performance will be identical. Colors are the same - they may have changed a couple of the names. Bottom line, if you're concerned about resale in a couple of years and don't like taking a full year's depreciation next month, buy an '06. If you don't care about depreciation and were waiting for any improvements for '06 - go ahead an get an '05 and save a couple hundred bucks. If you want a completely redesigned CR-V , it supposedly is coming out next year, which explains why Honda basically left the '06 untouched..

I am looking to purchase my first Honda. In my past new car purchases, buy the time I hit the financing guy the price of the car was already locked in. My Fin guy experience was simply to say NO, NO, NO and NO until I got to the part where I wanted to finance, then give an amount and again say No, No, No to all the options (insurance, add-ins like service contracts etc). With Honda, can they actually jack up the price already agreed when you meet this dude?

Replying to: andrelaplume (Sep 08, 2005 10:39 am) I argued against this ("it's on all of our cars...probably [the salesman] forgot to mention it") and it was removed. But always check that the price on your paperwork is the same one that you agreed to!

Replying to: thegraduate (Sep 07, 2005 7:00 pm) I just got a quote of $22568 (including destination) for an EX plus $1000 for accessories already on the car (side steps and the roof rack) plus a doc prep fee of $200. The salesman took $100 off the car price when I questioned the doc prep fee. This dealer has been looking around for my color and found it at another dealer so they would need to do a swap. Do you think I can do better on the accessories despite the swap? Also we are considering the day/night rear view mirror as an option - last dealer quoted me about $500 or so. I've never had one - how important is this option in an SUV (I hate the headlights in the mirror when I drive our 93 Accord). My other possible accessory is the wood trim kit to help improve the look of the console, also about $500. But I feel like my $1,000 for accessories is going to the running boards and cross bars that someone else put on and I'm not too motivated about laying out another grand. |

| Any opinions on how worthwhile the door edge guards and the moonroof visor are? | |

Replying to: mommanan (Sep 08, 2005 11:18 am) For comparison purposes: David Michael Honda in Freehold NJ gave me a quote yesterday, by mistake, on an EX: 21799 base + 550 destination + 138.50 doc fee. HandA accessory cost for running boards & roof rack (for an SE, including shipping) = 393 & 224, respectively. The roof rack installation is simple, you could do it yourself. My autobody guy said he could install running boards & fog lights for me for 300 -- so maybe assume 150 or less for running board install? That's 767 parts & install -- although more work for you and your mechanic. |

Just got a quote from a dealer in the Boston area for an '06 EX auto for $22,675 inc. doc fees. Guy said that car would be delivered last week in Sept. / frst week Oct. This seem reasonable?
