#66 of 306 they have by nippononly Mar 16, 2004 (6:47 am)
a pretty slick operation over at my local dealer, which is not to say I will miss them much!   I see in the manual that Honda recommends 10K oil change intervals unless your driving is MAINLY of the kind I don't do. Also states specifically to leave the break-in oil in for the entire first interval. Asked the service guys when they would change the oil. Their answer? "There are only three states in the country where the non-severe driving conditions exist, and this aint one of them. Change the oil every 5K max."   Now I must admit 5K is my standard normally, but the devil's advocate in me is inclined to follow the book from Honda and go with 10K.   Oh yeah, and by slipping, I meant not in lock-up, which is the case most of the time in most cars under 35 or 40 mph, and is also the case if you are on the freeway and floor it to pass, at least for the first few seconds.
#67 of 306 Looking to Buy a New RSX by lizzabelle81 Mar 23, 2004 (8:11 pm)
I'm looking to buy a new RSX, but I'm seeking advice from other past-RSX buyers. I went to Ryan's Open Road Acura in East Brunswick, NJ today, and the salesperson quoted me $19k for a 2003 (new, no mileage) base manual w/ leather. $19k seems a bit steep for a leftover, especially considering '05s are coming out in, what, six months? However, I didn't get a quote on a 2004. I figure an '04 would probably run me about $22k, so better to spend the extra $3k and have a new car. Can anyone give me some idea on how much I should spend, as I don't want any extra features. Also, can anyone recommend a dealer in central New Jersey to me? Bridgewater Acura, Princeton Precision Acura, Open Road, and Ocean Acura are all within 30 minutes of me, but if I can get better service (and a better deal) somewhere else, I'll go anywhere. Any advice anyone could give me would be appreciated.

sticker on a base w/ manual and leather is only $21K, not $22K. You are, in effect, saving about $1250, maybe $1500 to buy the '03. I would definitely insist on an extra $1000 off if it were me...we are already almost at April 1 here. If it is not too big a stretch, I would go for the '04, but an '03 base manual with leather for $18K is a bargain I would look at seriously.
#69 of 306 RSX Purchase by cheeba Mar 31, 2004 (7:09 pm)
Recently purchased a 2004 RSX Auto for $20,100. The vehicle was purchased from Springfield Acura in Union NJ. The buying experience was haggle free and fast. I recommend this dealer if you want to fair price and pleaseing buying experience.
#71 of 306 price for 2002 RSX. by purplehat May 02, 2004 (3:11 pm)
Always have driven Hondas but now interested in a 2002 RSX, cloth seats, 13,000 miles, looks new. They are asking $17,750. I offered $17,400. Is this too much. Charcoal gray, stick shift. They tell me I'm getting a good deal at this price.
#72 of 306 2003 Honda Accord by purplehat May 02, 2004 (3:16 pm)
Also, Honda is offering me a 2003 Honda Accord, leather seats, rear spoiler, no miles for $22,000. He says he took $4,000 off the price, like I should be lucky.
#73 of 306 the Accord by nippononly May 02, 2004 (10:47 pm)
is a V-6, right? Sounds like that is a better deal than the RSX, which is already two years old regardless of miles. The Acura should be another thousand cheaper, IMO.
#74 of 306 Need Help Negotiating by tast31 May 15, 2004 (11:50 am)
I'm in the North Carolina area and have called my local dealerships and they are all quoting the '04 RSX base model, auto trans, w/leather at MSRP. This is my first car purchase...how do I negotiate? I see that others paid about 500-1000 over invoice, although those posts were about 6 months ago. Would that bargaining stance still hold power? Where do I start?

#75 of 306 how about some footwork? by nippononly May 15, 2004 (11:21 pm)
sometimes they won't quote competitive prices over the phone, because they have little hope you will ever walk through their door. Start by getting some internet quotes, then visit a couple of the best deals with the internet quote printed out and in your hand - make 'em bid against each other.   RSX is now three years old and sales have slowed - I would be surprised if you couldn't get a better deal than folks were getting six months ago.
