Of course, we don't have a state income tax and our property taxes are less as "they" keep reminding us.

mileage concerns:
It seems that things are indeed just fine. I called the dealer listed on the sticker (the one that was ~75 miles away) and they were great about giving me the full history of the car. On the 4th of this month, the vehicle was involved in another dealer trade which went to another city. He told me it had 7 miles on it went sent to the other dealer, and it stayed for a week before it was sent to my dealer. The mileage of 360 indicates exactly that. No worries there.
It's funny that I was able to get the better information from the dealership whose problem it wasn't, while my dealership just brushed off my questions. I'm guessing that they just didn't think it was a big deal (which it turned out not to be), and their way of trying to convince me that it was no big deal was by not taking my questions seriously. Unfortunately, it had the opposite effect on me. Oh well, they've been pretty cool about everything else.
alignment:
I did account for drift from the crown of the road by testing it on both lanes of a highway (if it were drift due to crowning, the car should drift the opposite way on the left lane, i would think), and it pulled to the right in both lanes. Not severe, mind you, but noticable.
The only thing I'm curious about is what might have knocked it out of alignment, but I suppose you take your chances when you agree to buy a car you haven't seen yet. I'll be calling for a service appointment tomorrow.
Incidentally, this vehicle is everything I've ever wanted, and I'm really enjoying it. Even with these minor issues, I'm extremely happy and have no remorse, which is surprising because it's my first new car and I've been looking for something that suits me for a long time.
I get people who take their hands off the wheel and when the car drifts a bit they think there is a problem.
If a tire is a few pounds low on air that will cause a pull too.
Lastly, it's possible one of your tires has a slightly crooked belt. Pretty rare though.
Marin Honda had 31 CRVs on the lot on Saturday and today they have 27 so that is why I think the price was really good. They have all models in stock and they have a special lease on the LX model I think around 249 per month. The visit to the dealer took about 2 hours, I chose the car (they had 3 EX-L 2WD) it had 3 miles on it, then I test drove it, and finally did the paperwork. The price had been agreed so no problem there. The finance manager was ok he showed me their prices for extended warranty (About 2000 for 8 yr 120k miles) and I declined. I said to him I could probably get it online for about 1000. He also talked about Perma Plate and I said no thanks; he did not push hard at all then we signed everything and I drove off in the new car. So far the car is been great. Hopefully this helps other buyers in the area.
I just bought a 07 EX-L w/Navi. the 27700 did they add anything? or is is just basic. The navi is easy to use and the voice activation to change channels or XM stations is sweet. I asked them to include body side modeling for no extra charge. BUT....my svu did come with pin stripes, sun roof visor, wheel locks, over all I paided 25500, after I put down a 5000 down payment. I am financing the cr-v at 8.3%. Hope this helps
Every deal is slightly different, unless it's strictly a car "as is" with no extras. your deal sounds fine. Maybe you could shop for a few weeks or months and then wait for delivery. Just remember, time is money.
Is that a good deal?
Have you been shopping around yet? I've been shopping around for the EX-L and have gotten an OTD price of around 27550. Hope this helps.
Anyone suggest good dealership in Dallas area? What would be reasonable price for EX 2WD?
Good Luck.
But a lot of that depends on where you live.
California. EX-L no navi would sell for 23,995 + fees.
CRV-EX = 20,880 + fees. These are the internet going prices
in my area. Hope this helps.
I plan to buy a removable navagation system, widow visors, wood grain finish and mud flaps for my new car.
I didn't realize that the EX-L came in 2WD, or is it that they added the NAV unit to the LX? Or is it an EX 2WD to which the NAV has been added?
I wasn't aware that a Nav unit could be added on later - usually Honda makes you buy the top of the line model (EX-L), and they don't have a lot of factory option choices.
There is NO comparision!
Thank You
