Replying to: koleso (Dec 21, 2008 4:47 pm) See how much inventory there is in the nearby dealerships so you can gauge supply and demand. If supply is up, then present an OTD offer that you think is reasonable and see if anyone takes your offer. I just got a great price an 09 FIT at a dealership but of course the majority of the dealerships do not want to budge. You simply have to be nice, present your situation and your offer and do not get discouraged. The majority of the dealerships might not want to deal with you, especially if their supply is down but if the supply is up and/or they just want to move a few cars after christmas and before new years (which according to some experts is a good time to shop for a car) then you just need one dealer to work with you just a bit so that you can each benefit from the transaction. Having cash/check to pay for the car is a plus in my opinion in this type of transaction.... anyway, be patient, do not give up and remember you are the one buying the car and many are not buying cars right now so it might be that you are in a good position but it's all about the local inventory. Around here, the cars are listed on cars.com so I was able to search for the FIT and see just how many there are here and I was able to track how fast they moved in and out and which dealerships got new ones b/c it showed up as a new listing...This is all good information b/c you might not want to waste your time with a low inventory dealership but you just never know. The important thing to remember is to be nice, be sincere and understand that dealerships have the right to want to make money but you just want some help in being able to afford the car.... good luck!

Multiple dealers in Houston TX willing to sell for $200 below invoice. Just picked up a 2009 Fit Sport for $200 below. Had to haggle a bit afterwards to get a good price for my trade in but they eventually did well on that too.
