Lexington and Frankfort are hard places to get a bargain. Wyler in Florence is not my favorite place to do business either. You might try coming on up another 20 miles to Cincinnati. Another Wyler dealership, plus four other Honda dealers. Performance on RT 4 in Fairfield for possibly the lowest price. Superior Honda at the Mitchell Avenue exit off I-75 is okay.. Century Honda on Montgomery Road for the best buying experience, but maybe not rock-bottom price. (I get mine serviced there). regards, kyfdx |

Great post. Congratulations on your GREAT deal and thanks for sharing this on the forum. You may have already shared this, but where did you purchase your CR-V, including the state? I know these great deals aren't just in So. California.

Well, wanted to post that I got a nice price on a CR-V EX in St. Louis- $21,600 including destination. Not the best, not the worst, but under MSRP and respetfully close to invoice. But I got bit a bit on a trick that I did not anticipate. I was supposed to get a car off the truck with no additional equipment. When I got to the dealer to pick it up, he explained that it would take 5 weeks to get that CR-V, so he transfered in another one. That one had the "Honda Protection Package" on it, including cargo tray, wheel locks, and splash guards. He said he would sell it at cost- $299, which seemed ok at the time as long as it was at cost. Well, I've since researched it and found I could have gotten all three of those things full price at $275, and discounted at $175. He said full price was $379. Did the salesman just pad the profit a bit? There might be a bit of install fee on the splash guards and locks, but a three year old could instal the cargo mat. He's not getting 5's now when Honda calls. I hope that extra $100 or so was worth it. I feel he tricked me on two counts- one, for not telling me before I got to the dealer that the car he got for me had extra options when we had already negogiated a price on an optionless one. If I had known, I would have researched prices and been ready to argue. And Two- that it seems like he lied about selling the extra options at cost. I still love the car, though, and feel good about the negogating I did on my trade and the car, both of which I improved considerably. But he did get a bit back by being sneaky. I'm not really upset about the additional equipment, unless he lied about waiting 5 weeks for the car off the truck. Again, though, is loosing a perfect rating really worth that small of a pad?

Replying to: derkommissar73 (May 05, 2004 5:53 am) There was another buyer picking up her V the day I went for mine at the dealer. She had wanted the green EX, with no extras, and the only green one (had just arrived, was transferred in with a large group from a CA dealer) had basic roof rack, muds. The dealer didn't charge her extra, although I don't know the price she paid either.

Hi all, This is my first message here, and I would like to first thank everyone for the great info. Based on all the info I collected, I decided to purchase CR-V. I would like to purchase one soon, but I wonder when should be a good time to do because I can wait for the better price/model. If you can help me a little, it would be great. Thanks. BTW, I am in Missouri. ............. 1. Is it typical to have rebate/Honda promotions during the summer? If yes, how much was it last year? Anyone knows? ............. 2. When would I begin to see a 2005 model? I read several possible upgrades for the CR-V. I guess it is reasonable to expect $1000-2000 price increase for the new model. Am I roughly right? |

Any price increase would be minimal.. They usually keep about the same price, even though the content may go up slightly, assuming its the same model. New ones start showing up in late October, usually. There haven't been any significant incentives on CRVs in the past, even late in the model year, except maybe low APRs. I think the '04 is only about $350 more than the '02 was. regards, kyfdx |
