For that price you can get a 2006 in a month or two.

I agree with the others.... partially..
 
The price is too high.. There are prices reported for brand-new '05s on this board, that are lower than that demo model...
 
Have you taken delivery of the car? As long as the car is still at the dealer, and you haven't paid anything, you don't even have a deal yet... Just say no.. I think at that point, they may lower their price, but if your husband doesn't like the car, I wouldn't take it, at any price...
 
Complaining to the government? Not unless you need a hobby..
 
regards,
kyfdx

They are asking too much. I got my Pewter SE for $23,635 (Including destination and front splash guards). Mine had only 35 miles on it... flawless, no PTTR, AND the new car smell. For that price I'd wait for the 06s!

Doc fee issue; Do I go with this offer or not? by jmcmoore

The Internet Mgr David Michael Honda in Freehold NJ has faxed me an order for a 2005 CRV SE:
Base 23,329.00
Dest 550.00
Doc Fee 138.50
(plus CT tax & registration)
 
Maybe this is dumb, but in my last email I said "OK, assuming your doc fee is for the paperwork/effort to pay CT state taxes, DMV fees & obtain CT plates, I'm ok with the doc fee". Now he emails me the following statement: "I am faxing over the retail order for the car with you taking care of the tax and MV fees in CT, when you register it. We will provide what is called an MSO and the out of state temporary, so you can get it home and register it." AND the order has the same DOC fee 138 -- no reduction!! I feel like he's purposely trying to piss me off.
 
I would think that a dealer in NJ would normally arrange to pay CT (or any out of state) sales tax, register it and get plates. ALSO, I had agreed to wait on a monthend Sept delivery of 2005 CRV SEs AND I'd agreed that I understood he'd have to swap out with another dealer to get black or tan.
 
Would you all take a deep breath and move ahead with the purchase anyway? Or walk? This is a 100 mile drive for me. Going to the DMV is a pain in the ass. But it seems like no one in CT has 2005 SEs or at least not at this price.
 
Fair Honda in Danbury is no longer giving quotes on 2005 SEs; only 2006 SEs -- for which they're asking an add'l 1400 or so $$$... White Plains Honda (closer to me) has a price equal to David Michael but they're response has been SLOOOOOW; I still don't know if they have an 2005 SEs or will be receiving any... plus they've gotten dismal reviews in this forum...

Just consider the doc fee as part of the price and decide if you are willing to pay that price. If it is still better than you can get in CT, go buy the car. 100 miles isn't that far. I'm not sure if the dealer CAN register the vehicle in another state for you, some states require a visual confirmation of the VIN before they will register the vehicle that has been brought in from another state.
 
 I was in the service for 20+ years and bought many vehicles out of state and registered them myself in various states. All you will need is the bill of sale, the certificate of origin, and the mileage statement. You will pay the CT sales tax and registration fees when you register the car, which will be a fairly large check to write. You may have to pay for a temp tag in NJ to get the car back to CT, which the NJ dealer should certainly be able to do for you within that 138 doc fee.
 
Good luck on your purchase.

Don't forget the CT state mandated "Recording fee" of $175. So, if you register the vehicle your self, do you still have to pay that on top of the 6% sales tax and 2 year licence plate fee (unless you are just tranferring exisitng plates)
 
Have you tried Fair Honda in Dabury?

I am looking for a dealer in Northern Virginia or Maryland who can give me a very competitive price on 2006 LX.
 
If you have bought a new CR-V recently in this area, please let me know your experience. Thanks!

I had a great experience with Criswell Honda in Germantown, MD. The pricing was the best and they were the easiest to deal with.

Dealer trade deposit? by bshor
Sep 13, 2005 (7:51 pm)

Hello. Still looking for that 05 EX. Two dealers have told me that they don't have anything in stock, but can get the car through a dealer trade. Then they ask for a "refundable deposit" to execute the trade and allow me to take a look at the car. Is this legitimate?
