From Jon Hall Honda in Daytona Beach FL. Really down to earth people. Up front,truthfull and honest. No mind games on extras or add ons. The people who work there give personal accounts of being on the other side of the fence like us buyers so they simply put forth their best. $17900.00 out the door which included the double mfg warranty from Honda. which goes for $1060.00 . Cheap insurance for doubling the warranty. Everyone else was so close in quoting that the final factor was who actually had the model available right now. And to my surprise it was my own local dealer. They expect the Fit to go on a waiting list in months to come due to the start of the mad rush for economy. Daytona Bob

Replying to: wge (May 27, 2008 7:41 am) I predict that even if gas prices stay where they are now that Fits will be impossible to find a month from now. The values of big SUV's and other gas guzzlers will continue to drop. It really isn't a pretty picture and I fear the upcoming months. I sure wouldn't wait for a "better" deal. |

I've been shopping locally (Inland Empire and Orange County) with mixed quotes, here are some results...my target price is $16,000 2008 - Fit Sport - Automatic Average quotes are around $16,400 - $16,500 Best I've received so far is $16,122 All prices include destination...(excluded are tax title license etc.) Good deal?

| I have been shopping around for a second 2008 Fit base, 5sp. manual transmission. Two weeks ago one dealership told me they would ask $215 over MSRP (MSRP = $14,585). Another dealership said they would only go with MSRP. They looked for a dealer trade and found only three base 5-sp manuals in the entire state of Tennessee and that one or more may already have been sold and that it would cost an additional $150 over MSRP to get the car to the dealership. A third dealer called today to say they had two base 5-sp manuals in transit and that was the end of the 2008's. No more beyond those already built and in transit. I put down a deposit at a fourth dealership for a Milano Red base 5-sp manual that they will sell at MSRP. The third dealership intimated a hefty price increase for the 2009 Fit and Civic models, whatever that might be, for obvious market reasons. After lengthy consideration, I decided that I wanted a 2008 rather than a 2009 so agreed to the MSRP deal. Syngergy 3 if you have a firm $16,122 deal on a 2008 sport auto which has a MSRP of $16,700, you might wish to jump on that offer. I doubt you will be able to do any better. | |

I waited 6 weeks and paid MSRP on a Tidewater Blue Base AT, added keyless entry & tint. I got an OK deal on my trade, though, so I guess it works out in the end.
