Is this a good price?
I am getting a quotes for 2010 CRV EX-L 2WD - OTD from 27000 to 27700 from different dealers in houston,TX . Can you let me know what is the good price for this vehicle .
Anyway -- wanted to let you know that i just bought from consumer reports a "pricing report" on CRV 2010 EX 4WD -- according to them $23,556 is a good deal. So, I'd say you're doing ok! Would you mind letting me know where you got that price?
$25916 for an EX-L plus destination charge is so low! I've been researching and based on other people's results, I thought just under $27K would be a realistic number for us.
We're planning to buy a report from fightingchance.com, and then send emails to all the area dealerships late next week (i.e. the last week of the month).
So, ridgeline1959, how did you do it? How did you get such a low price?
$23,489.00 (Dest. charge include) + TTL
The dealer threw in mud guards and wheel locks for free.
I got a quote of $30,725 OTD for an EXL Navi 4WD but decided extra $5K not worth it.
Listed below are the details:
2010 Honda CRV EXL 4WD Black Outside, Black Interior
Bottom Line $27788.00
Price included Splash Guards,Alloy Wheel Locks,6% Sales Tax,$202 Tags,Dest. charge
In & Out of the dealer in 2 hours
Honda Care; Check with other Honda dealers on price.
710.00 Destination
299.00 Sealant Pkg Fee
1631.63 Sales Tax
66.70 VIT
139.05 License,Title,Inspection
149.00 Docs
28097.00
I am in talks with this dealer. I said I know someone who got it for 22,500 so you need to match that at least. (They were quoting me 22,900). They asked me who my "friend" was but I said I wont reveal that as I did not have your permission.
If you do not mind sharing that information, let me know my email is kulsi AT hotmail dot com
thanks
I got this from a dealer in NE Illinois.
The dealer that provides warranty service actually bills Honda for that work. All auto manufacturers work this way.
Their service manager doesn't care one whit whether you bought from their sales floor or not. He makes money no matter what -- as long as you let him do the work. As far as he's concerned, it's a completely different operation that just happens to be located in the same building.
Now the sales manager cares quite a bit whether you bought it from him, and may try to get you to believe you can only get warranty work done there if you bought the car there, but that just isn't true.

Airjuice, first you need to know the CRV is very different from the TL. Don't expect the same quality like your TL. CRV is more or less a Civic with jacked up suspension (IT IS!!!). Fit and finish is only OK and it is no match a TL. It rolls when making tight turns.
When I got my V, I got all dealer quotes using www.edmunds.com. Then just let the dealers out bid each other. It took a while but it worth it.
Is $28,300 including destination charge? If it is, then the deal is fair, not bad. It is very close to the quote I got for $27,400 (car only)
I think the price for the CR-V is fair also. I'm worried about the price for the TL. It seems a bit low. Anyway, thanks for the input on the CR-V. I know what I'm getting into - different car - yes. The CR-V is just more practical I've found out.
$25,000 (includes Destination) + TTL
Color - Urban Titanium Metallic/Beige
I know they're makin' money on my TL. Trouble is that is the best offer I have gotten for this car. It's a sweet car, but no one wants to get closer to the value I'm looking for and it's certainly losing value by the day. I'm just trying to go with the best offer I can. I don't have much choice. Let me know if you have a better idea. Thanks.
Here's the breakup of OTD (I dont know what the 'dealer installed accs' are, but I dont intend buying them):

Thanks!

No haggle
No reason to do this with the slim inventories everywhere.
That said, the interest rates that Honda, and other lenders are charging right now are excellent. If you are in the top tier, credit wise, you should be able to find rates in the 4-5% range.
Finding the exact CRV you are looking for may be the challenge.
Sometimes, you are better off long term if you get another vehicle not as much in demand as the CRV (as stated above by RONBARS)
For example you can upgrade to 2010 Pilot LX 0.9% APR for about the same amount $$$ of a 2010 CRV EX-L at 5-6% APR.
Since the NEW MMC 2011 Pilot is coming out in just a few months, dealers are willing to clear out the 2010 Pilot. In return you would get more for your $$$, more power, more space, resale value in the long run.
What is an MMC Pilot?
A lot of people have no use for more power (less gas mileage) and they don't need or want the extra space. On resale value a CRV holds resale value as well or even better than a Pilot.
The vehicles that are not as much in demand may not be a bargain in the long run.
Cars that aren't in demand as new cars fare even worse later as used cars.
Since the "newly refreshed" 2011 Honda Pilot is coming out in a few months (April/May), the 2010 Pilot will be at a discounted price to clear the dealer lot. The Navi will be available in the lower level 2011 Pilot EX-L ( for 2010 Pilot, Navi's only available in top of the line Touring).
I don't expect any changes that will be significant and, yes, I know NAVI won't be restricted to Tourings which is a good thing.
I'm in the Seattle area and a 2WD NAVI would be saleproof for us!
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a special AHFC rate on a CRV.
thanks a lot to everybody and especially ewujun for sharing his experience and also thanks to quinsong99, It helped me do my homework.
So, It's time for me to do the KARMA. Here it is -
I finally bought the Honda CRV 2010 LX 4WD, Black Ext, Black Int from the Dayton, OH area from the same dealer that ewujun bought.
Matt Castrucci (not a very high-five-jazzy place,no coffee, mineral water etc.. but the price was right!.).So, drove from Columbus OH and picked it up. Finalized everything on the phone before leaving.
$20880.90 plus tax, title, fees.
Sales Tax 6.75% for Columbus OH.
Total paid - $22,601.73 out-the-door.
In and Out from the dealer in 1.5 hr.-2 hr.
Hope this helps somebody out.
What do you guys think of this deal?
Thanks.
It all depends on what tier you fit in. The higher your score, the better the rate!
Invoice is about 20,766 (base 20,056 + dest 710)
So reckon about $200 below invoice.
Happy shopping!
Suggestions to would-be buyers:
1) Call around for pricing
BUT (a twist here)
2) Step into a physical dealership that is NOT the one with the lowest price - test drive, haggle the old way, let the sales person smell blood, wear em down, then go for the kill (Jaws music). You bite off someone's time, their willingness to sell goes up.
You've got a better chance of going below your lowest price. Phone calls can only get you so much since the salesperson time is not 'vested', and for these sales people, once you fall below their ceiling price, they would rather wait and sell to the next sucker to walk into the dealership. It improves their chances of a quick sale if there is a car in the lot of a different color vs selling to you at a low price.
3. Your lowest price remains your backup...
And please, why do all dealers want to sell Urban Titanium color? I suggest not to let color choice known till you get the price fixed. I would not let them decide the color for you.
Best wishes...
