Replying to: zacha (Oct 08, 2009 2:30 pm) They will pit dealer against dealer and go crazy trying to save a few dollars. Yes,I know it's money but it's just amazing how far some people will go, how many miles they will drive and how much time they will invest just for a few, and I mean a few dollars. Yes, unemployment may be high but this doesn't mean a store will be willing to lose money just to sell a car. And if a store gives you the 2.9%, they lose the incentive. Seriously, I would suggest that you ask family, friends or someone you meet with a new Honda in a parking lot for a referral. You probably won't pay any more and you'll have a better experience. It really doesn't have to be that hard. It can actually be stress-free and fun. |

Didn't realize that there was some increase in price since I bought my '06 LX. But that's to be expected. Still very happy with the car and at about 24k miles, all is well. Besides oil changes & tire rotations, it's like the ever ready bunny...it just keeps on going & going...& going...with no drama. This is exactly why I bought my Civic, and it's a hoot to drive also. Seriously looked to swap it out for a S40 around July 4th, but after testing a 1/2 dozen S40's, just wasn't worth extra $ to do it. The main motivation was the superlative seats that Volvo's are known for, but the S40 seats weren't that great actually. Guess the more expensive models got the great seats and since the seats were no better than my Civic's and my wife's unhappiness with this idea, I kept what I got...and I'm so happy I did.

I got an email from them, that they had 09 Accord and Civic's left And to make an offer and they'll accept. I made an offer of 17,000 OTD price for a CIVIC lx-s He said you have a deal. Going to go check it out, see what Financing i get I dont' think i'll get 2.9 but anything under 5% is good.

Replying to: tudiu (Oct 05, 2009 5:37 pm) Why? Because I saw the same model 2010 LX-S and the sticker price was lower then what you paid. Second, I offered cash which gets me less discounts usually. Third, his last offer before i said left was in the low 17000's. I dont understand how you used edmunds and still over paid by that much. I was in New Jersey, not sure where you are from. But NJ/NY regional area tend to be higher costing too.

Just started shopping around for a new Civic LX. So far two OTD offers came back from some dealers in southern Arizona. Haven't been to the actual locations yet to check out the cars. Dealer B actually provided a breakdown of the quote. What is a doc fee? Obviously Dealer A is high, but how does Dealer B's quote compare with the average? Dealer A: (Dobbs Tucson) For a 2009 Civic: "MSRP is $18,965.00 but at clearance the total including window tinting and splash guards and one time fees is $19,323.80" Also a 2010 Civic LX w/same equipment for $20, 610.54 Dealer B: (Chapman, Tucson) 2010 Honda Civic LX sedan: selling price - 17,790.00 tax - 1440.99 regitration - 329.50 doc fee - 399.00 Total OTD - 19,959.49. |

Replying to: sjsuper76 (Oct 12, 2009 2:25 pm) Sometimes colors also play a role as some colors are more desirable than others, depending on region where you live. Tinting should not me more than $ 100 or 150. Splash guards might be part of the package that the car has on from the factory - same as trunk liners or upgraded floor mats. From your description it's not clear what is on the car. Doc fee (title processing) as well as destination charges (inland freight from point of import or distribution center) you have to live with and pay.

Hi all, I'm looking to buy a 2010 Civic EX-L in tango red. I am a USAA member in Virginia, and the lowest price I have been quoted OTD is $21,700. It looks like a good deal; the base price before TTL is $20,603. The $21k is a bit of a shock for a smaller sedan. However, I intend to run this sucker into the ground over the next 10-12 years, so I'm getting what I want The base price before TTL is $20,603. Thoughts/suggestions appreciated! |
