Replying to: hondaguy67 (Jan 23, 2007 5:59 pm) I waited for some time to reply to this message (click on the link to what I am replying to (#4291). It turns out that in the recent Consumer Reports, that car that I bought(small SUV) ranks better than CR-V. And they should know, they test cars and SUV's high and low, left and right. |

Replying to: hondaguy67 (Jan 23, 2007 1:36 pm) I will use this analogy, you get more standard features and a higher quality vehicle than any other vehicle at the same price. if you want to wait go ahead but there are no9promises that you can get that deal, and too be honest why would you buy an inferior vehicle for roughly the same price just because you will not pay MSRP???" Replying to #4285: Ditto! So, hondaguy, go and buy the famous March issue of Consumer Reports and see who's got an inferior vehicle.

Replying to: nearmsp (Mar 06, 2007 8:00 pm) Glad to hear from you. Sorry for not responding immediately, I had some cleaning up to do. This guy thrashed me so badly back in January that I couldn't resist but... Never mind. But I am glad you finally got what you wanted AND paid less than MSRP! That's what I have been preaching all along. Why not get what you want for less. You still get a good vehicle like the next guy who paid $1360 more. And doesn't that feel good? Now you are covered for gas, at 27 mpg, that $1360 will buy you a lot of gas. I hope you enjoy your new baby for a loooong time to come. You should also try MN-UT trip. Many good off-road trails to drive our cars on, get some dirt, scratch that new shiny paint, get some rock chips on the windows. Naah, rather not. If you ever drive by - wave...

So I bought a 07 EX-L AWD with Navigation for $27,595, $1,000 below MSRP in Boston area. I think it is pretty good deal. Just wanted to share. Good luck!

Just bought a 4WD EX in a suburb of Chicago and paid as follows: $24,645 - list with destination 84 - wheel locks 118 - splash guards 24,847 - total sticker 23,975 - PAID $ 872 - Below Sticker In IL the document fee is not required by law but may be charged and is limited to $58.48. State tax is 7%, County Tax is .75%, license and title fee was $80. I realize the wheel locks and splash guards are highly over priced. I traded in a 1999 Accord in good condition with 107,000 miles and got $4,750. Financing was 6.9% for 5 years through Honda. There was some "fuzzy math," going on, but this is what the deal boiled down to. Perhaps I didn't do a great job of negotiating, but they had what I wanted, I was anxious and so far I'm a happy CR-V owner. This may be helpful to other prospective buyers. Any thoughts? |

Replying to: pegwinks (Mar 07, 2007 10:25 am) I am in a suburb of Chicago too and am in the market for a CR-V. I am curious what dealer you got yours from. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! Chris

Replying to: kaps23 (Mar 07, 2007 11:09 am) I bought mine at Community Honda in Orland Park, IL (SW suburb, Cook County). I really didn't bargain too intensely. I would just advise you try to get them to keep any trade-in, markdown from sticker price, and financing as separate figures. I find that's the easiet way to really see what you're really getting. Many people say don't trade in -- sell it yourself. I didn't want that hassle, plus you don't pay sales tax on the trade-in amount. I qualify this with the warning that I'm no expert. Hope this helps.
