We are looking at a 2008 CRV EX-L. The car is great, but the dealer has added the typical garbage of "Fabric Protection", etc. The dealer is offering 23,300 BEFORE their CR*P (sorry! It kinda ticks me off about their stuff). To me this is average. My thinking is 22,000 as their add on is about $1500. So, this would be a EX-L with the dealer "Fabric Protection" (I have kids, so I have cans of scotch guard here ... wish I knew they were worth $299!) and tinted windows. The "Paint Sealer" is a rip off, but again if he drops 23,300 down to $22,000 that seems fair for me. So, my qeustions are: 1. Does this seem fair to me? 2. Any thoughts on other discounts I might hit the dealer up for? Thanks for ANY help here! Greg

Just purchased this car in Chicago. Details: 2008 CRV EX-L AWD, Glacial Blue, Grey interior, mud flaps, wheel locks, trunk liner. 0 miles.. Price: $23667 Doc fee: 151 plates: 147 tax 9.25% misc: 35 OTD: 26300 picking it up in the morning. Very happy about the deal. P.S. I've been lurking on these boards for a while. Hard to decipher. Above format is more helpful, I think. |

Purchased last night in San Diego. 2008 CR-V LX AWD, Whistler Silver, black interior, mud flaps, wheel locks, trunk liner, brand new. Price: $19,800 (including destination) Documentation: $55.00 Tax $1,535.76 (7.75%) DMV $212.00 CA. Tire fee $8.75 OTD: $21,614.59 I had similar offers from dealers in Orange County and LA... I'm pretty sure I could have knocked off at least a few hundred more if I had wanted to travel or be more aggressive in negotiatiating.

Test drove a 2009 EX-L AWD today that we were ready to buy except it had a noticeable vibration at idle in the steering wheel and some in the seat – mostly in the steering wheel. This occurs after the engine is warmed up and the idle drops to around 750-800 RPM while stopped at a light with foot on the brake in ‘D’. Tried it several times and had the same result. When I put my left foot on the brake and lightly increased the idle to about 900 or 1000 RPM with my right foot it smoothed out. The salesman said ‘they all do that” and the ‘senior’ service tech said it is a common complaint and it will go away after 1000-2000 miles. Sure. He also indicated that the idle speed is controlled by the computer and can not be adjusted. I searched this forum and see several complaints by 2007 owners but wondered if this car was a fluke. We drove another one (not the model or color that we want) and it did not vibrate but the idle was higher at around 900 rpm. I walked away from the deal for now and they will not have another one like it for several weeks. I am not used to a car with vibration at idle. Are others experiencing vibration at idle? If so did it improve with miles?
