I have been in the Minneapolis market for some time. I am seeing a greater discounting in the LX area with Ex-L and EX-L w/navigation having lesser discounting. That said I believe that this is a temporary situation. If one waits until another few months, one can get much better pricing. Demand and supply are not in equilibrium right now. I don't plan on a navigation vehicle, because I have a Garmin Nuvi 360. It has blue tooth connectivity as well and more importantly I frequently connect it to my laptop for firmware updates. Garmin is great in supporting its products. I don't know if the CR-V voice directions can pronounce street names, like the nuvi.

i'm sure you're right...as is everyone who says to wait. I'd also heard that subaru might come out with a hybrid version of the tribeca, sometime in 2008; with potential much better mileage on tribeca, the market then might also be different.
hopefully, they'll also come down with price on cars with built in nav system...since portable gps system's doing well for most people. maybe a different forum..but would u say garmin is better than tomtom vs. magellan vs.etc..? thanks.

I researched the various forums before deciding on the Nuvi. Consumer reports also rated Garmin Nuvi above Tom-Tom etc. Garmin has head office in the US and Tom-Tom in Europe. I reckoned dealing with a US designed and focussed product is better. Garmin has an excellent after sales service and support. A good web site to research more is on the gpspassion forum below. I am extremely satisfied with Nuvi 360. If your budget is tight Nuvi 350 is has everything that 360 has but without the blue tooth connectivity. If I bought again, I would buy the Nuvi 350 or the new 660 which can transmit through the FM radio system.

LX 2WD price?

Hi everyone, I don't have much experience buying a car and would love some comments on my quote:
'07 CR-V LX 2WD for $21,700 out the door in the bay area -- does that sound like a good price or should i look for a better price? (I compared internet prices at about half a dozen places)
I saw somewhere in this thread someone got same model in the bay area for $20,900 out the door a week ago and now am a little worried!
Also, does the Edmunds TMV number include taxes and fees? I was trying to compare my quote to what others were paying but wasn't sure ...
Thanks for any help!

twilight, you really cannot compare out-the-door prices. in the bay area, i think you're paying around 8.25% in sales tax whereas in some places, they may only be paying 6.00% (that's a difference of over $400 right there). from my best guess, the $21,700 price you got is pretty good if it breaks down like this:
$19,061 invoice
$595 destination
$1,622 sales tax (at 8.25%)
$300 title and registration
$100 doc fee
-----------------
$21,678 total
that would put you at right around invoice...i think that's pretty good!

nearmsrp, we have exactly the same taste. i too prefer garmin and am planning to upgrade to either the 350 or the 660 (i currently have the garmin quest). i'm sure magellan and tom-tom are good but i prefer going with the leader here (in fact, garmin is suing tom-tom over patent infringement)...plus, i just happen to like the design and interface of the garmin units better. YMMV

i received my honda CRV EX-L yesterday. the car looks very nice. and the OTD price was $ 26537 including wheel locks. so far i am very happy with the car and did not the difference between a V4 vs. V6 as i previously had a Toyota Avalon. i have never had an AWD before and noted that the car will have noise when it is idle at the R and D mode. any input will be appreciated.

Anyone financing through Honda?

Is anyone financing their new CR-V through Honda Finance? If so, what kind of rate are you getting? Over the last 12 months I’ve kept up to date on the various specials that Honda runs for financing and, if they are running a finance special, they seem to advertise 4.9% as the “special” rate for 60 month loans (Currently only for the Element). If 4.9% is the special rate (obviously not in effect for the CR-V), what’s the regular rate?
