Replying to: yankee28 (Mar 08, 2009 8:14 am) I talked to a number of dealers over the last two weeks and each time I asked for a lesser price they met it. I think it pays to physically go into the dealerships meeting a salesperson and telling him or her, as I did, that we are going to be ready to buy a specific car in two weeks. I let them know that I would call them at that time or that they could call me and that I would be dealing with several dealerships looking for this price. I had paid for the consumer report listing of all the bottom-line prices after the dealership incentives. If I had settled on that high would've paid a minimum of 22,700. It pays to be cordial straightforward and talkative with these hard-working salespeople. They've got a hard job to do and they work multiple hours every day way beyond an eight hour day. Be human, humane and never be rude but look out for your best interests and practice the 180° turn if you don't get what you need. Prices will continue to go down so there's no need to buy a car today if you don't get the right price. You are in the drivers seat or soon will be.

Sales Price: $?? Doc fee: $?? Sales tax: $?? DMV e-filing: $?? License fee: $?? Registration/Transfer fee: $?? California Tire fee: $?? Thank you!

Replying to: sacramento2 (Mar 24, 2009 6:40 am) I. could have gotten any color that they had and they had a huge selection. Pardon me for not listing the name of the dealership because I'm sure they don't want to be promoted for selling a car at a this specific price. By the response I was getting it all dealerships I don't think my experience with this dealership was unique-- any of them would have... maybe lower even by the time you do this. I'm not sure what matters to have the specific dollar amounts for the inevitable fees that arise. I'll list them below but at best by just keeping them out of your mind will help you negotiate on a specific price. Keep your experience as simple as possible focus on the specific deal at hand. (but don't start the process unless you are sure you want to pay these fees and your new insurance) Sales Price: $20900 Doc fee: $55 Sales tax: $1833 DMV e-filing: $-- License fee: $136 Registration/Transfer fee: $67 California Tire fee: $9

Replying to: pvh (Mar 24, 2009 3:52 pm) I've heard that dealers get "kick-backs" for doing Honda financing (not too sure about the amount) & they don't give Edmunds or KBB price for "trade-ins". Thanks again for sharing. Excellent price.

| I'm in Tarrytown, NY. Dealer told us that the lease is not down to $185 + taxes, = $200 a month or total of $8,000+ over 36 months. Residual is c. $15,000 so a grand total of $23,555 delivered. But he wouldn't run a credit check before we signed the lease (room for extra on the credit deal) and so we didn't sign and will cross check again tomorrow. Any comments appreciated. | |

2009 Civic Hybrid Featured Special Lease - $259.00 per month for 36 months 259.00 per month for 36 months. $259.00 total due at signing Includes no down payment with no security deposit. Excludes taxes, titles and fees. For well-qualified buyers. Is this a good deal. New to the leasing game, I do have a 800+ credit rating so I should qualify for the AHFC Super Preferred credit tier. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks...

I paid $19,899 + doc fee, tax and registration today for a base civic hybrid. I got a good quote ($20,148) from an internet sales manager from Bell Honda whom I felt comfortable dealing with than I emailed nearly every other Honda dealer in the state to see if anyone had a better price. Two had slightly better out the door prices, so I negotiated with the dealer I felt comfortable with to match the lower base price + about $200 total for dealer add ons (tint, door handle guards, door edge guards, some other junk) (the other dealers would have charged for for add-ons). In the end, I left with an out the door price including tax, doc fees, registration, everything for $22,365, most of the extra being tax because Arizona's sales taxes are very high.

I'm in Massachusetts, and negotiated the following lease on an 09 Hybrid WITH Navigation, and with 15,000 miles per year for 36 months: $110 down, $285 per month (including sales tax). Should I do this, or continue searching? |
