Post 3201 was jerseydevil.
Post 3207 was thejerseydevil.
 
I'd give the other guy some crap but NJ doesn't have much that is cool. The myth of The Jersey Devil is one of the few interesting things (especially for people like me who always lived in Southern NJ till recently).
 
Yes, the Raleigh dealer was Leith Honda on Capitol Blvd.

Agreed, if there is one piece of advice I could offer - it is to ALWAYS deal with Internet Dept. In my experiences, the sales people that you must use to test drive will always cringe and then usually ask that you not go through the Internet Dept since they typically can't sell for as low of a price AND they must split the commission. However, my understanding is that the net sales people have much higher expecations - they really need to move many cars. So I find them easier to deal with and will talk low prices from the start so it's much less hassle. I feel bad for the regular sales guys but if they'd ever just give me their best price at time of testdrive (they're trained not to), they might get my business.
 
When I lived in NJ, I found any dealer owned by DCH to have exceptional internet sales. My experience here in NC was ok but not as good as my few DCH internet sales in NJ.

The offer was for $21500 for the EX 4WD Automatic. (+ tax and tags) The salesguy said he wasn't sure of which finance rate I would qualify for, but DID tell me my payments would be $455 a month. (With $4500 down) Maybe I'm naive, being a first time buyer...but isn't this a lot???
 
Are you financing for 36, 48 or 60 months?
 
If you are financing for 60 months at $455 a month with $4500 down, you are looking at the total of $31,800 ($455*60+$4500), or about 20% Interest rate.
 
How are your math skills? How is your credit? Income to debt ratio?
 
Even if you finance for 48 month at $455 per month, the interest is still too much.

The financing was for 48 months. I see what you're saying...
 
I am looking into a credit union...I have already checked out a bank and their interest rates are pretty high. My credit it really good...I checked it out online last night. I have no idea about my income to debt ratio...my credit report says my score isn't as high as it could be b/c I don't HAVE enough debt.
 
I'm going to do a little more research...and wait a few weeks before making any decisions.

Internet deals by hi321

How do you deal with the internet saleperson at a dealership? I noticed that there are people in this forum who suggest it to get a good deal...are you talking about just emailing the dealership for a quote? What about carsdirect.com? Can you use their quote at a dealership?
 
Thanks in advance!

Let me tell you....if you are willing to drive, Paramus Honda is the best with the best deals. I purchased a Honda Civic Si way below cost. The best time to purchase Hondas is in September when they want to move the cars for the next year models. You won't go wrong with Paramus Honda. They are probably the largest tri-state dealer and so they inturn get the best deals.
Hope this helps someone out there!

buying experience: 4WD AT EX in San Francisco bay area by petewho

I picked up a 4WD AT EX over the holiday sale at Honda of Stevens Creek in the San Jose/Santa Clara area for $21,000 + tax & tags. Got the color I wanted with no add-on options, so it worked out pretty good for me. Not sure if that price was due to holiday sale kickbacks or not. I got 5.99% but I wasn't really thinking about financing as I paid more than half of it down. Pretty good dealer, not too slimy and didn't try too hard to shaft me.
