2009 Honda Fit Sport Automatic Taffeta White No extras, just tint. $16529.14 Selling Price includes the destination charge +$1033.07 Sales tax (TX) +$39.24 Dealer's Inventory Tax (Reimburses the dealer for ad valorem taxes on its motor vehicle inventory. Paid from dealer to the tax assessor-collector. Some BS that isn't technically required to be charged to the customer...) +$33.00 Title +$75.80 License/Reg +$23.75 Inspection sticker +$50.00 Dealer Doc fee/processing fee =$17784.00 OTD Dealership is north of Houston (Kingwood) - Sterling McCall Honda I did a lot of internet shopping and read a lot on these forums and it was very very helpful. I'm extremely happy about my purchase. Most of the dealers here told me a deal for under $18k was ridiculous, but I made it somehow. I had almost every dealer in Houston quote me via email first and went to go see the 4 that had the lowest prices quoted. Make sure to have them disclose if the price they're quoting you includes all fees and list out all the extras that they have added (OTD pricing). I told them over the phone that I was prepared to walk away if I got to the dealership and the prices were above what we discussed for OTD pricing. I got to a couple dealerships and they pulled the "Oops, sorry that's without TT&L..." etc) before and got sick of it. My car had been on the lot for a while, so I guess it was worth it for them to move inventory. Happy Fit hunting!

Fit Sport 5AT. Going from memory, about $17,175, plus $149 doc fee and taxes. Probably not the world's best deal, but we had to buy here (had we gotten bids from Indianapolis, we'd have been bluffing). Got a very fair price on our trade, which bumped us from the manual to the auto.

Replying to: sai1138 (May 28, 2009 2:43 pm) I got mine in Sunnyvale, CA at Larry Hopkins Honda but I only got such a good deal because they matched (and beat by $100) a price I got from Anderson Honda. Good luck!, Susan |

Hello, I am looking for advice regarding the purchase of a 2009 Fit, base model, manual transmission, without any extras, in either blue or red and have read a number of websites to inform myself about holdbacks and other hidden dealer incentives when possible. Have looked at and briefly test driven a Fit with automatic transmission. 1) What would be a reasonable price in the Minnesota area? 2) I have used the services of "Fighting Chance" for my ' 99 Ford Ranger but wondered if others were familiar with it and if I still need Fighting Chance now, ten years later. They supply information on holdbacks and other dealer incentives for most autos but now in the age of the internet, I am uncertain if they or any other car information service is still necessary to solicit multiple email bids from dealers or to deal successfully with a fleet manager. 3) Do you have any tips in writing up an email bid solicitation from Honda dealers? 4) Which of the extra fees (ie dealer's prep) are legitimate and which are not? From past research, it seems that timing in purchasing a car can help, especially at the end of a sales month, model year, or manufacturer' promotion. I'm in no hurry to buy as my current autos work well. Any thoughts? Thank you.
