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: 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.

Replying to: banjolaya1 (Mar 06, 2007 8:27 pm) My friend you deserved to be thrashed back in January and you do not as well but I will refrain. you talk about consumer reports blah blah blah. They are a great publication but alas they are just 1. Do your research and you will see that almost every single automotive publication rates the CR-V is rated higher by both the pros and the public. have fun with your Rav4 and good luck |
