isellhondas I am going to take your advice! Regarding 2WD vs AWD, I live in a part of MA down near Cape Cod where we get very little winter precipitation. We're a little warmer than the rest of the state because of Buzzards Bay. Most of the snow passes over us and dumps on our poor friends in Worcester, Taunton and the North Shore. If I lived in those areas you can bet I'd buy AWD. Of course, it's all moot now because there are no EX-L 2WDs to be had in my area, and there is the resale value to consider later.

I highly recommend Weymouth Honda MA, a smaller dealership. The salesman Dave is very professional and helpful. They do not have one (EX-L) on lot though; we were lucky enough to wait for only two weeks to get an EX-L AWD (glacier blue). We picked up our car Jan 31. The price is unbeatable and the transaction is very smooth.

" And don't try to trade in a vehicle with a check engine light lit"
 
Excellent advise. the person trading in the car will always try to convince us that it's something minor.
 
" Oh, that's just a loose wire" or.. " Oh, that light has been on for years"
 
Well, we sure can't sell a car with a check engine light on and the person appraising the car has to assume it's the worst thing it can possibly be. I remember we once had to send a Volvo to the dealer for a check engine light and the bill came to 1400.00!

2WD CR-Vs and NY supply by pandaman1784

I have a friend who is a salesman at a Honda dealer in NYC and he told me that as far as he's been told, 2WD CR-Vs are built-to-order.
 
As for the numbers of CR-Vs that are in dealerships in the NYC area, most of them don't have or just a few (mostly in the EX-L trim). But it really depends on the dealership you go. His dealership only has the demo model on the lot. The CR-Vs which he has sold lately have been ones in a shipment that should arrive sometime this week. He said that the ones that are unsold at the time of delivery are sold pretty quickly afterwards. The 07 CR-Vs are really in demand in the area. I tried getting quotes for a Silver 07 CR-V EX for my uncle last week and most of them were asking for MSRP (or at most a few hundred off) and they said they didn't have any for immediate delivery. They were all trying to get me to put a deposit down on one that was on its way in.
 
Does anyone know how the delivery system works? I asked my friend and I didn't really under his answer. Is there one big delivery meant for a given area (such as NYC) and each dealership sells from it, or does each dealership get their own shipment of vehicles?

Just wanted to mention that I don't think this price is true. Cdn$2,400 off of MSRP would almost be invoice. I also got the pricing from the APA and their pre-arranged price is Cdn$900 over invoice for all models except for EX-L which is Cdn$1,0000.

Goodson Honda on 1960 and 45 had one on their lot a couple of nights ago. A beige one. By the time I got there the next day it was gone.
 
Three months ago, I put out some feelers for one and they only offered me $100 below MSRP.
 
It's a nice car, but I just can't see paying $23K for one. I think the prices are artificially high right now due to the high demand for the vehicle and it's low supply, so, I'll just wait till supply eventually surpasses demand and make my move then.
 
I keep bringing to mind when that Chrysler PT cruiser came out and how much people were paying to be the first on their block with one. Quite a few people got hosed on that one.

For future reference. Most CELs can be disabled by disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes or so. Assuming there is a problem most probably come back but in the short time you are having the dealer check out your vehicle they won't know. Unless of course they do a diagnostic.
