Used advice found on www.carbuyingtips.com (and other sites) and gave my dealer a written offer to buy a Metallic Orange 2006 Element EX-P AWD Automatic (no options) for 20,540.00 + $550 destination. Total price: $21,090.00 before tax, license, etc. The salesman didn't blink (couldn't see him anyway- he was on the phone) and accepted the offer w/o haggling. So... my first thought was: "O.K., what did I miss? Some secret incentive or double holdback plan or something???" (It always sucks to start second guessing one's self.) By my calculation (barring some secret built-in profit that I missed), I gave them a 3% profit of $598.25 with the salesman getting about a $50 commission. Someone ease my mind or hit me with the truth: How'd I do??

Replying to: mt25 (Apr 08, 2006 6:52 pm) That is pretty close to an internet price quote I received from a Honda dealer in Dayton, OH. I was looking for an Element EX-P AWD, automatic, and he provided a quote of $21,065, so very similar. Don't know if there is more wiggle room here, because I am going back and forth between wanting an Element or a Forester, so I haven't pursued the Element further. Hope you enjoy yours! Does anyone know when the 2007 Elements will come out -- and if they will have either curtain or head protecting side airbags -- this is the primary issue that is preventing me from choosing the Element over the Forester. Thanks

I live in Fresno, CA. A dealer just gave me a quote for 20,875 for a EX-P AWD automatic. This includes destination fee. Is this a good overall deal? I am going to buy it in Kiwi Green and I think this car is really unique and meets my needs but I just wanted some feedback. Thanks

| Does anyone know the Element's buy-rate money factor and residual value on a 36 month least at 12K miles/year? What kind of lease prices are people getting? | |
