Replying to: lovemyhybridac (Jul 16, 2005 8:12 pm) Congratulations Doc Professor on your new HAH. I love the new HAH technology and also do not care about the cost break-even. I just "feel Heaven" and complete satisfaction when I drive my HAH. That's all I care. As long as one owns and drives the HAH he/ she will eventually develop good driving technique to get best MPG.

Replying to: nowakj66 (Jul 17, 2005 12:06 pm) Glad to hear you got a good deal. I think at that price it is worth it. I feel a little bad for the early folks that paid full retail and above. At least they're enjoying their cars and that's what really counts!! Replies to this message: dwynne (Jul 17, 2005 5:40 pm)

Replying to: falconone (Jul 17, 2005 12:29 pm) That is true of just about any car - if you gotta have it right away you will pay more. Folks used to pay full MSRP or over for S2000s, mine was under invoice. It happens over and over. Just don't get in any hurry and you will pay less - most of the time.   With the "new" pricing the hybrid Accord is more attractive - but you can get the I4 and V-6 for under invoice too - so the premium is still high to get one.   Dennis

In the Portland, OR area, one dealer is advertising the HAH for $27,635, with two available at that price.

"   Still around surfing, too many new users asking the same questions in too many threads and too much thread meddling.   Later,   MidCow   P.S.- The 6-speed is still AWESOME and flawless.
#22 of 85 Should I buy in August? Extended warranty worth it? by rtomkinson Jul 31, 2005 (11:23 pm)
Thanks everyone for the awesome info on these threads. Today I was offered Invoice + $800 in the San Francisco peninsula area, and I felt there was ~$200 more to be had if I'd been ready to sign. But my questions for you are:   1) Should I buy a 2005 HAH in August? I am poised to probably buy an HAH. Now that it is August, would you experts recommend buying a 2005 HAH now, as dealers presumably want to make room for 2006's? Or is it better to wait and buy a 2006? Will they be different cars in any way? If I have to pay a little more for a 2006, will that be worth it in terms of residual value when it comes to resale, or won't that matter if I assume I'll keep it more than 5-7 years and put 15-20k miles on each year?   2) I was offered the extended warranty (7 year, 100k miles, 0 deductible) for $1450, and I understand it costs the dealer about $900. I usually assume warranties are overpriced, but was thinking I might take it for peace of mind at $1050 or so (Prius has a much better warranty as I understand it). What are others paying for the extended warranty? Any other thoughts on this?   Thanks again for the help,   R Replies to this message: cal_cal (Aug 08, 2005 11:36 am) blane (Aug 08, 2005 12:39 pm) zoran (Aug 31, 2005 9:59 am) blane (Aug 31, 2005 5:58 pm)

Replying to: rtomkinson (Jul 31, 2005 11:23 pm) I bought mine for invoice minus 700 in Ohio without any extra warranties. I think at invoice plus 800 in SF, you got a good deal. I dont beleive there will be many changes to the 2006 model. The HAH is a fine car. Go, get it. You could wait till the 2006 model comes out and then buy a 05 HAH if one is still available.

Replying to: rtomkinson (Jul 31, 2005 11:23 pm) In your negotiations, you should consider that the 2005 hybrid may get you a federal tax DEDUCTION. If you wait until January 1, 2006, there will be a much more advantageous federal tax CREDIT. Bush signed the Energy bill today.   The sales manager at the dealership is well aware of that nuance. Do they want you to buy now? Or do they want you to wait a few more months? My bet is that they want sales now and will try to make it worthwhile to you. If not, say goodbye and tell them that you will shop down the road.   Also, don't be in a rush to buy an extended warranty, especially at the price you were quoted. You have up to three more years to decide. You may want to check jayhondacare.com or curryhondacare.com. Replies to this message: zoran (Aug 31, 2005 9:59 am) blane (Aug 31, 2005 5:58 pm)
#25 of 85 Does this look good by dave67 Aug 17, 2005 (12:32 pm)
First - thanks for the helpful info.   I was ready to wait for the new tax law till Jan, till I go this quote from a local dealer: $25,800   Is this as good as it looks to me? Should I be aware of anything when I go see them? Replies to this message: mi_sat (Sep 01, 2005 5:10 am)
