all the perks with the EXL (2) free oil changes and maybe a honda shirt for my
wife if the salesman keeps his promise. That price included tax tag tranfer
They offered extended warranty about $1500 which we turned down. We
called Gieco Insurance they offer extended warranty on new car about $20
every six months coverage to $100,000 miles we are researching this. We
live in central Florida. Any one get a better price?
"We are currently 25 deals away from where we wanted to be for the month. Bring your best legitimate deal to my managers in our showroom, select any in stock vehicle that matches what your deal is on and we will give you an even better deal! My managers are not turning down ANY reasonable offers this weekend! What time is going to work best for you today or tomorrow?"
My questions a bit naive I suppose:
1) "Bring your best legit deal" - does that mean we need to have a deal in writing from another dealership? we dont have one or can we just go in and make an offer?
2) to make an offer how much lower should we start from the Edmunds.com TMV? MSRP = 25,095 Invoice = 23,348 TMV = 23,678 transportation = 710
3) We have no trade and will pay cash - shouldn't that get us a good deal?
thanks in advance!
No trade and paying cash will make things simpler for you, and make it harder for them to obscure what you are paying for the car... That's a good thing... But, it won't necessarily get you a better price on the car..
Car dealers make a lot of money selling financing, accessories, extended warranties, etc.. If they think they won't see any of that profit from you, they may not discount the car quite as much... That's why you should shop around for the best price...

disappointing to know that we may will not be considered a good customer because they can't make money off of us.
so to shop around for the best price - do you recommend visitng dealerships or asking for intenrnet quotes?
And...paying cash doesn't make you a bad customer.. But, dealerships are like any other business.. They want to make the most money possible. You want to pay the least amount possible... but, both of you need to complete a sale to get what you want... It can work, but if you want a cheap price, you have to work at it..

I live in Long Island, NY. Who else got an extended warranty? If so, where did you get it and for what price. I am asking b/c my 2003 Acura 3.2 Tl transmission died and if I did not have the extended warranty I would have been in the hole for $3500.00. Also, even if we purchase the warrant and they decide to trade in the care in a few years will the warranty help in resale value? Thank you
You can get 8 years / 120.000 miles plan for CR-V EX from online dealers like http://www.saccuccihondacare.com for around $1070 with $0 deductible.
Honda Care can be transferred to a new owner for a nominal fee (about $50).
You have time until you get 6000 miles on your car to decide whether you want to buy it or not.
I got mines for EX-L for $25,530.
I have talked to the lead, and she stated that they are a high volume dealer and can not reserve a car with a deposit. This made me a little unsettled. I offered to buy the car over the phone, and then pick it up at my convenience, to which sales person replied that she needed to make sure the color combination was in deed in stock. She called back an hour later to tell me that they no longer had the color combination we were originally quoted, however they have another color for the same price.
Has anyone bought from Pohanka Honda of Fredericksburgh, VA?
The price seems too good to be true.
American Express states that there will be no further negotiations needed, once dealer posts the price through American Express web site.
Breakdown was 23,262 for car (MSRP was 25,095 and transportation was 780 for a total of 25,875), 100 for splash guards installed (original price was 123.57 with 10% off if purchased at sale and we offered 100 and they said yes), plus 295 for docs.
Did a combo internet/phone deal with first dealership and got the 23,262 price but when we went in the salesman was a little obnoxious so we walked out. Called another dealership and asked for best price - they said 24,100 and we said we would buy today with cash for 23,262 and they agreed provided we took a car on their lot and not ask for them to do a search.
I think we did okay because TMV for our area was 24,388 and Consumer Reports Pricing Service quoted 24,128.
Here is the break down of the cost:
Car was $22,437.38
Destination was $750
Doc Fee was $398.00
Tax and Title were extra of course.
My price is pretty similar to what the last poster posted. Seem prices will drop a bit further as inventories are cleaned out for 2010.
charges This was in central Florida..... What was the total out the door?
Best regional quote was: 25063+399(doc)+tax+title but that was 225 miles away.
I'm new to this forum and to Hondas. I live in Maine and have been researching CRVs. Found a 2007 EX, assembled in Japan, with 58K miles for $18K. However, when I pulled a Carfax report, it showed the previous driver hit a deer which damaged the front of the car.
If the car had not been in an accident, is this a good price? Even though the car has been in an accident, should I still consider it and if so, is the current price fair?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
