Well, I misspelled "Question" but could not correct it with spell check. Sorry, Isell.

With Honda there are no volume discounts. We all pay the same.
 
We charge 50.00 Documentation Fee on all new and used cars. I can't believe how much I see other stores charging! a person really needs to figure that into the price of the car.
 
A store can sell their cars for as much or as little as they choose to and I realize that demand can vary considerable depending on location and you are correcting about the trade in aspect. They may cheap sell the car and underallow on the trade in.
 
Some places push near worthless "security systems" that they pay next to nothing for and have VERY aggressive F&I departments.
 
For some reason, the NAVI's are really gaining in popularity recently and Honda needs to ramp up the production on these. I'm not sure why people feel the need for NAVI but they have definatly picked up!

It's available since late October to early November... the late November stock isn't the first batch
 
Supply vs Demand??? I don't know... I got mine $433 below invoice (last quota for salesman). It is not always about supply vs demand or striking at the right time. It's about luck too. Good luck to you. Even in Dec its going to be hard getting the EXL with Nav

Yes Isell,
 
I agree that the demand for navis are increasing, in contrast to someone's belief that the navis are not popular. They forgot that it is a highly rated navi system that the CRV has.
 
Anyhoooo, the world is round...

I got all weather floor mats thrown in...as for the doc fee, $125 wasn't the lowest I had but it seemed like the dealers with low doc fees had a higher tag transfer rate. I was informed by a dealer in PA that dealers in NJ are can charge up to $300 for doc fees, the car was purchased in NJ. When it came down to it this dealer was the friendliest, easiest to work with and has a good service dept for down the line (loaner cars, etc.) I was pleased...happy driving!
 
On a side note, has anyone had the Honda remote start system installed on their CRV (or other Honda vehicle?), or any after market remote start system for that matter?? I'm considering it, but the price tag is a little steep for the Honda one. Thoughts? Thanks!

Hey there 03honda,
 
So you got it for a couple hundred over invoice basically if I'm reading you right? Plus tax docs etc. That's encouraging if so. Can you share where you got it? I'm in central NJ. Essex county.

Isell:
   You replied that there are no volume discounts, we all pay the same.I realize that you all pay xxxx same amount for a CRV or whatever from the mfg.What I was referring to was not volume discounts...but do dealers receive money back for meeting certain sales goals? For example, if your dealership sells 300 CRV's in December, and Honda has set a goal of 250 for your store, does the MFG. then pay xxxx amount to the dealership for making over and above a sales quota as set by the mfg.?????
  From what I have read from some of the salesman's posts, dealerships pay bonus money to salespeople for selling xx amount of cars per month over and above a number that is set beforehand. Therefore, I am assuming (and only assuming) that manufacturers pay bonus money to dealerships for goals that the mfg. has set for them.

I learned today that we will recieve exactly ***two** NAVI CRV's in December and one of those is already pre-sold.
 
We are the largest volume dealer in nine states and the stores that sell the most cars GET the most cars.
 
Even I didn't know that were that scarce.

Honda did this recently with 2007 Accords but never before and never with CRV's.
 
If we hit a certain volume level with Accords (we did) we got some extra dollars.
 
They had never done this before.

Isell,
 
Are those your only allocations for Dec. If it is, the EXl w/nav production is still way too behind schedule. The Ohio factory gotta to start producing this trim line
