It doesn't look like I'm going to swing much of a deal with that much choice.
I also had the possibilty of a black 09 w/nav approx 5300 mi. but that dealer was trying to get most of the savings back b/c it also had all the accessories.I would only do that if they ate all of the installion charges on the extras.Just price out the extras individually from the Honda site and add it on to the base price.Also be sure it can be sold as new and not used being it has 8K on it.
Good luck
thanks for any advice and info.
I am thinking of offering 19,600 for the 08 RTX it has 30,300 miles. I also have a trade of a 2005 maxima SE with the DRivers Preferred package which I was already offered 11k in trade from the place with the 09 RT. The 09 RT they were asking 24,995 and he told me that was his best price. This car had just under 17k miles. I could spend a little more and get a brand new car.
Does 19,600 seem like a resonable offer for the 08?
Thank you!
When will Honda redesign the Ridgeline? Its been 5 years since this truck was introduced.
Ridgelines have never sold well. I bought my 2006 well under invoice in Dec 2005.
Out the door $31500.00.
Thought it was a great deal especially with .9% financing

Curiosity calls ... what your price before tax, title, license?
The OTD can be a bit tricky for folks not shopping in your tax area.
Thanks!
A new tuner module and splitter is required behind the dask and under the drivers seat, connected into existing radio.
An antenna is required. The lead runs up the right front trim panel by the windshield. A little 'wart' antenna is glued to the inside of the windshield in the upper right corner.
On 12/13/10 we bought a new (left-over) 2010 RTL w/o NAV. Price before all taxes & "handling" fees was $31210.
We thought we did pretty well since there is no difference whatsoever from 2010 to 2011. Only way to tell the difference is the part of the VIN that covers the model year.
We are hedging our bets, as it sure seems Honda is NOT very committed to the Ridgeline. I would not be surprised at all if 2011 is the last year of production. They have already cancelled/discontinued the Element, and getting rid of another gas hog will surely help their CAFE numbers.
based on truecar the price for 4WD Crew Cab RTL w/Navi is 33700 so the best OTD should be just about 35000 in s.florida
will wait until end of month as I am certain someone has picked up this for below 35k OTD
Out the door price was $27,500 thats at 6.25% sales tax.
Looks like the price before ttl was around $2000 below invoice.
Good deal ?
2011 RTL w/Navigation, price 33000 plus tax,tag,title
2012 RTL w/Navigation, price OTD 37200 (includes tax,tag,title)
Anyone bought this model, what OTD price did you pay ???
The 2011 quote, does that included the $810 destination fee? As for the 2012, what is the actual sales price of the Ridgeline (including dest)? I'm trying to compare the price between the 2011 vs 2012. It is hard to compare OTD price if I live in NJ. NJ sales tax, tag, title & doc fee are different from Florida.
I know someone bought a 2012 Ridgeline RTL w/Nav for $32,500.
Then people that recently purchased can give you a corrosponding 'vehicle' price. This price should also include the transportation charge, it's actually part of the basic vehicle cost and is the same across the entire USA, the dealer does have to pay this, and doesn't enter into price 'haggling'.
You are going to have to pay tax, tag, doc, etc, but these are separate from the vehicle price, which is the price that can be haggled.
If not, if you can look at the sticker for both a 2011 and 2012, pull a few numbers. Pull the 'base' vehicle price. Then if there are Factory accessories, pull one of these. There is almost always only two percentages of MSRP markups (or reductions from MSRP for the 'invoice' price). Look at Edmunds prices for the 2012 and calculate these percentages. One for the 'base' price and then a different percentage for ANY factory accessory.
Looking at the base prices for 2011 and 2012, you can see if Honda has increased the prices between the years. The 'percentages' usually do not change from year to year on a vehicle that doesn't have significant body/motor/etc changes.
And with Honda making almost no significant changes to this vehicle, I would guess the percentages are the same between 2011 and 2012.
To get the MSRP and 'invoice' price for a 2011, if Edmunds has dropped these from their displays, use the percentages to calculate the 'invoice' price based on the sticker MSRP numbers. It's not that tough.
Now we all know the 'invoice' price doesn't represent what you may be able to buy a vehicle. On my 2006 Ridgeline I bought it thousands below 'invoice'. I think Honda has given dealer price supports of some type on a Ridgeline for most of its production life.
