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.

The rebates/incentives portion of this site lists a $500 marketing support to dealer incentive. It requires that you finance through Honda finance. My questions are: How much of the purchase price do you need to finance to qualify? and Can you finance through them, then immediately pay off without penalty? I would rather pay cash, but 500 bucks is 500 bucks. I could just finance 1000 and then pay it off. Or I could do the whole amount. I just don't want to pay a lot of interest to save a few bucks. Anyone know? Or should I just call a dealership and ask?

I know you can't get the cruise on the base model, but from the honda site it appears you can get the USB in glove compartment. Is that so? Can you hook up a thumb drive via USB and control it on the stereo? Or is it only an Apple friendly appliance? |
