| I just picked up my new glacier blue EX-L at Harbor honda in Merrillville Indiana yesterday.I traded my 2004 CRV for the 2007.They took off approx. $800 on the 07 CRV and gave me $15000 for my 04. I also bought the all weather floor mats, the other 2 splash guards, and the cargo mat. So the difference was $12200. So I gave them a cashiers check for the $12200 and now the 2007 EX-L CRV is mine.I have bought about 5 Hondas from Harbor honda through the years. They are wonderful to deal with.This is my 3d CRV.This one seems to drive so well and it handles great on the road.The acceleration is might better than the 04 CRV.It seems to be less noisy on the road than the 04.I just Love it.I just hope the MPG will be good.Time will tell. | |

Picked up a Glacier Blue 2007 CRV EX-L AWD at Marin Honda on 6/16/07 for $24,756. Both El Cerrito Honda and Manly Honda offered similar pricing. SF Honda promised to match but offered nothing in writing and appeared evasive. MSRP $26,595 Sale Price $24,756 Doc Fee $55 License Fee $161 Registration/Titling Fees $64 California Tire Fee $8.75 San Francisco County Tax $2,109 Total Price $27,154 Financed through AHFC at 6.29%. Credit union offered slightly lower rate of 6.14% so price paid for car was very slightly reduced at last minute as incentive to finance through Honda. Marin was a pleasure to deal with, as it has been in the past. No drama and no attempt was made to sell me anything additional other than I was given an explanation of the Honda Care extended warranty. One can probably extract a better deal in the Bay Area as I hardly did any negotiating as I needed the car and just wanted to get the deal done, and Marin Honda is a convenient location for me. |

The local dealership finally got in the model (EX-L, 2 WD, no NAVI) I was looking for in one of my color choices (metallic blue) last week. The one Honda dealership here in Gainesville is selling all the 2007 CR-Vs they get very quickly so I decided it was time to go ahead and buy one. The total OTD price was right at $26,600. Breakdown is $24,490 for the car (including dest. fee) BUT, being that this is Florida, with it's DEALER FEE scam (i.e EXTRA PROFIT),it's necessary to add in the $499 dealer fee to this "price" to get the real price of $24,989. A mere $405 under MSRP. It did include mud guards and cargo tray though. Not an especially great deal but the best I was able to find. Dealer's in Florida don't seem to be discounting as much as those in California. Some of the dealers in Orlando weren't even interested in matching this price. Supply and demand I guess. The rest of the costs were for TTL. Dealer got me financing at 5.79%, a bit lower than my credit union, who could only get me 5.99% Anyways, the car is great so far. No buyers regret. Wife and kids love it too. Gas mileage around town for the first 200 miles has been around 23 mpg.

Replying to: tampafred (Jun 18, 2007 6:45 am) Should I be talking the guys down on the MSRP price or the invoice price? what is reasonable to ask for below invoice price. Does sticker price mean Invoice of MSRP? Thanks for your help

I had a terrible time buying a car at College Park Honda. I called early in the day to speak with a sales manager. I gave him a quote that I had gotten from a different dealer and asked if he could beat it by $500.00. He said yes it was no problem and to come on in. I told him I didn't want to waste my time if he couldn't beat it. He again said no problem. When I got to the dealership after the test drive we sat down to talk numbers. As soon as we sat down he said he couldn't give it to me for the price we discussed on the phone but he would do it for $100 more than that price. He made me sign a sheet that siad I would take the car that night if he could get that price. After waitinf for another 15 minutes he comes back and says he can't give it to me for that price and can't even beat the price I originally gave him over the phone. He totally wasted my time because he knew that when we were talking on the phone. I will never go to College Park Honda again. I'm still looking for a good price in the MD/DC/VA area.

Replying to: nesey (Jun 19, 2007 5:06 am) well that sucks...I am so sorry you went thru that! I am almost jealous to see how much more negotiating room there is now for the CRV's than there was back in march when I bought mine. Seemed like nobody in these parts were coming down much from the msrp. But I needed a car right then so that gave us less wiggle room! Hang in there! you'll get what you are looking, down to color if you want. Okay, I didn't get color because the color I wanted was in the toyota line, but I got my first choice color in the Honda line at least! So will you! And good job not signing any commitment letters! So unethical in my book! You can either get me what I want or not. And any letter signing should be on dealer's part for prices and availability, not the consumer! You have all the power by being able to walk out the door! |
