2012 Honda Civic LX sedan, automatic
$17,987
+ $129 document fee
- $700 when financed through Honda
---------
$17,416 before tax (7%), title, registration
---------
$18,702 OTD (included splash guards too)
This was from a Pittsburgh, PA area dealer. I think the price was great and the dealer was awesome to work with. Everything was done over the phone ahead of time. She just had to sign papers and was on her way. No hard selling in the F&I office either.

Bangor, Maine..may have got it down a little more perhaps, but I am told this was a good deal.
You pays your money, you takes your chances! HA!
Good dealership, more professional than most. Darlings.
MSRP - 22775
Selling Price - 20728
Residual - 58% (13,209.50)
Money factor - .000810
36months/15k miles per year.
Including tax this comes to $252 a month. Of course they'll try to throw in a bank fee, motor vehicles, 1st month......maybe a doc fee (tell them NO).....But 370 is offensively high. I think 720 would be good enough to get the good money factor. I think? Even still, at .0025, your payment would come to $314 a month in this deal.
Oh and do not put "DOWN" any money as a cap cost reduction. If the car is totalled or stolen and not found, that money is gone. Better to have slightly higher monthly payments and keep that money safe.
Good deal?

My local Honda (Chicago area) has the LX Auto listed with a sale price of $16990. These are over $1000 under invoice. Looks like there is a little more room for me to negotiate.
I was about ready to buy at the $16990 price, so I'd say $16666 is a great price.
Carrs Honda in Chicago. Ask for Ludovic.
Price of vehicle : $22,000 with LoJack installed. OTD was $23,995 after taxes/fees.
Hope this helps someone.
Do you have the dealership name, please?
''I had a price of 17,500 otd on a 2012 LX but decided on an EX for 19,000 otd This was from a Dealer in the Washington DC area ''
thanks,
also: I read a post from February where a buy thought he had less than good credit with a score of 720! That should qualify you for the best rate out there imo. If the dealer said you have less than sold credit with a score of 720 - he's lying to you.
For accessories you can check eBay for OEM ones -- here are some discounted online websites but you'll have to price things out on your own to see who's the cheapest with shipping:

Please let me know how this compares to others:
The price I got was $17,100 (including the $770 destination).
I added $198 for the window etching
7% tax was 1,210.86
299 mandatory 4 yr registration & plates
299 document fee
GRAND TOTAL $19,114.36
I got a couple quotes with true car and they were $16233 + 770 destination, which is about the same ($13 more).
But yesterday one of the dealers that sent me the quote offered to lower their price by another $250. So shoot for $16750 including destination, but not including doc fees (about $160 in IL), tax, title, and license.
I did make a deposit last night, seems your price is $350 less. On second thought, after reading comments about the poor design reviews, I'm going to cancel the purchase.

I have leased a 2012 Civic in 2011 Nov for 24 months (Seattle, WA). The car has done 1650 miles only. The monthly payments are $363 and the current payoff amount is $18500. There is now a problem. I wish to leave the country in November 2012 as I am not from the US (better job back home). Therefore I wish to get out of the lease. What options do I have? I know that I could complete the 18K payoff on the car and sell it again. What else? Honda does not allow lease transfers. Could I just pay the remaining lease payments ($368 X remaining months) and get out of this? Are there any penalties involved? How much of a mess am I in?
Looking forward to everyones responses
NP
Civic EX

What did u guys think?

LX Model - $15,882
Destination - $770
Mass tax - 6.25%.....$1041
Title, registration and doc fee - $465
I called the dealer to make sure the car was inside due to hail storms in dallas. Our area got hit very bad. luckily it was in the shop for window tinting when the storms hit.
You can solicit offers from dealers on the car.. The advantage is that you won't have to buy the car (and pay sales tax) before then selling it to someone else. The disadvantage is that a dealer won't give you as much as a private buyer..
You might still take a bath, but late model Civics hold their value extremely well.... even if you don't break even, you'll likely be out a lot less than the remaining $6500 in payments on the lease.. There are plenty of Honda dealers in a city the size of Seattle... shop it around, and see what happens.
If the Honda dealers aren't playing ball, try CarMax.

Is it a sedan or coupe?
Here's in Bay Area, CA that they have a sale for 16.9K for LX auto sedan+ tax and doc. fee. Almost the same with your OTD.
Could you tell us what's exactly price? tax? doc. fee?

New 2012 Honda Civic EX sedan w/nav (no leather) for $20,500 plus TTL out-the-door price.
I'm planning on buying tomorrow. Any cautions? (I've read all the scams and tactics, etc. and the dealerships know I won't fall for anything, nor can they waste myy time.)
