Had numerous dealers in the metroplex competing for the past month and I went in to buy the car on black Friday 11/23/2012 from Rusty Wallace Honda in Garland TX.
Breakdown on what I paid
$16,255.00 CAR PRICE
$1015.93 SALES TAX
$310.62 TITLE LICENSE ETC
$17,581.55 TOTAL BOTTUM LINE OUT THE DOOR PRICE
Do you think that will change by the end of december?
looking at EX 4door sedan..2012
http://www.voiceofthedriver.com/node/70052
Based on your previous experiences, historical years, models, is it likely I can get it for about $800-1000 below MSRP in the next 30-60 days?
It appears the 2012 Civic was offered at > $1000 discount within months of release. Was that an exception because of the initial reviews and response?

2013 LX is also available with new tail lights and built in rear view camera; other than that, everything pretty much same.
Sale Price $16,300.00
Vehicle Theft Protection $99.50
Sales Tax 7% $1,147.97
Tire fee $7.50
4 Year Registration $301.00
Doc Fee $199.00
Total $18,054.97 OTD. Got 0.9% Honda Financing.
Vehichle had 9 miles on it with following dealer installed options
- Wheel locks
- Window etching
- mud gaurds
- trunk tray
I am not sure if this is a good deal or not, but I think I should not have gone for the Vehicle theft protecton $99.50 and questioned the 4 year Registration fees. NV MVC site has a calculator and it comes out to $198.xx for 4 year registration.
Overall it was good experience.
Thanks to Brian and all others contributing to this forum, this is the second car purchase I made based on the information from this forum. It helps a lot!!!
Dealership is in central NJ (7% tax).
The best price I was quoted for 2012 LX auto model was 16,700 + TTL. I decided to spent a little more for 2013 model, which comes with Bluetooth, rear camera, better quality interior and stylish exterior. Also, according to Edmunds review, it is quieter (road noise) than 12 and has better suspension. Can't verify this unless you have driven both cars for a while.
Good luck to prospective buyers.
Hoping they'll see the $$ I'm dropping and be more flexible.
including $762 60 month finance charge and TTL
MA tax is 6.25%
I don't want to figure out 6.25% sluggomom. Basically how much did you pay for the car and add on the doc. fee, everything else is irrelevant.
I knew to negotiate but never even thought to negotiate the PRICE of the car. How crazy is that.
Anyway I wanted to know if the deal I got was a good one and if it wasn't already obvious this is the first new car I own.
Deal:
36 month lease, 170$ a month
3,042 Down Payment to cover Taxes, Title but not license plates.
The Residual value of the car at the end of the lease term was a little over 12,000
So how badly did I get taken? I only placed a deposit, any way to back out if I was completely screwed over?
With that high down payment you should have a lower monthly.
Local dealership is about $20lessamonth with $3k down. So not bad, but not great.
Can't negotiate residual.
$299 doc fee
$75 title
$25 plate transfer
$29 inspection sticker
The tax was $1311 and change and the 60 month finance will cost around $762
When I'm done.
Basically I got it for $1 under invoice with the OEM starter and installation included
$269 per month OTD with 39 months 10K
$289 per month OTD with 36 months 12K
That is it!
Thought they could do better so I left.
Thoughts anyone??
36 months, 12 k year Honda lease in NJ
$1000 down
LX - 195 month out the door - Taxes fees etc.
EX - 215 month out the door..
Any thoughts - besides the price - do you get a new driver a new car????
Help in Jersey!!!!
e.g.
Price of car (+ destination) =
Tax =
Admin. fees =
Dealer installed options (tint, mudguards, etc) =
Total price =
This method will allow ALL of us to get a better view of what the new Civic's are going for.
and wheel well molding 17,817
License and registration 213
sales tax 1425
doc fee 80
OTD price 19,535
We recently bought a Honda Civic but my wife will use if for a while before passing on to my younger daughter.
The lease price you got offered sounds about the same as what they are advertizing here in Texas. However, on this forum I learned that you should STILL negotiate the price of the car as though you are buying it. Lease is nothing but financing the cost of the car +depreciation over the lease period.
At my job I get to test drive all kinds of new cars and hopefully will finally get to try the new Civic but there aren't very many Honda's in fleet sales. I still love my '06 model but I just hope that the new Civic can beat the new benchmark in this segment, the Hyundai Elantra...a very stellar car in every aspect and in it's 3 different models.

Was looking into purchasing the 2013 Civic EX sedan, when negotiating I want to be within TMV price correct? Also will I be able to negotiate taxes so I can get a fair OTD price? What is a good OTD price for South Florida? Thanks in advance!!
Anyways..no mood to argue. Enjoy the day!

I'd think that under the tmv price would be doable as even though the new Civic looks great, the Elantra and Focus are both better cars overall. The Civic just didn't evolve far enough.
