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.

2009 AWD EX-L Test Drive - Idle Vibration by r2d2_3cpo
Jan 16, 2009 (7:00 pm)
Reply
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?

Thank you! I have had "fastest selling vehicle on the lot" and "excluding dealer added options" I eliminate those right away. Enjoy your cr-v

OTD price cannot reflect sale price before Tax, fees and TT&L because different tax rates and other fees. Please post your sale price incl dest but before tax, dealer fee and TT&L.

I went back today and tried the same 2009 CR-V again. Today was much ‘warmer’ at around 32 degrees. I let it warm up to mid-range on the temp gauge and by then the RPMs had dropped to normal idle range of about 700-800. With the brake on and the car in park there was no noticeable vibration (the Auto Temp control was Off – no A/C compressor running). When it was shifted into ‘D’ there was a noticeable vibration in the seat and steering wheel but I can’t say it was objectionable – just noticeable. Not as smooth as our Toyota Highlander at idle with a V6.
 
I then went through the exact same procedure with another 2009 CR-V and experienced the exact same vibration. I concluded that the first vehicle I tried is not unique in this situation and that our V6 is smoother at idle because it is a V6 and the inline 4 in the CR-V is just not as smooth due to the engine design.
 
The idle vibration is not so bad that I can not live with it and maybe (hopefully) it will get better. If not it’s not a deal breaker because I really like everything else about the CR-V. I pick it up next week.

I just got a quote of $25,600 out the door for a 2009 CR-V EX-L without navi.
 
Base?= $23,800
Tax and License = $836 (VA tax and reg)
Destination= $670
Processing Fee= $299
 
And it appears that there are currently no low rate financing deals available....
 
Is this a good deal? a bad deal? or a mediocre deal?
 
Thanks.

OTD price for 2009 Honda CR-V LX 2WD by calerm

Hello all:
I'm interested in finding out what a good deal would be for a 2009 Honda CR-V LX 2WD no additional options or accessories. I live in the Maryland area. I noticed some weeks ago, someone posted an OTD of $20,400 for the same vehicle. Also, if the dealer doesn't have the color I'm interested in in stock, can I put in an order for that color. (tango red). Do they charge extra for that? In advance, thanks for all your assistance.
