I just did a quick search on cars.com - I see just over 3300 CR-V EX AWD's for sale in the entire country.
Thanks for the info. How accurate is that search?
You'd have to ask Cars.com.

Did I do good?
2017 CRV EXL FWD $27,496 includes destination (9% off MSRP).
Doc Fee $250
Tag $33.50
Sales Tax $1872.86
No Trade in
No dealer Add Ons
No fianancing paid with a personal check.
The deal was about $350 below Invoice less holdback so there must be dealer cash from Honda since giving up holdback is sacred.
I believe the dealership had a deal that the end of the month sales goal was extended to Oct 2 because they said they could hold the price until Oct 2. Could be just another one of their games.
My goal was 12% off (good job wandl and others) so I guess the dealership wins.
P.S. If you are looking for a Buick/GMC check out Laura Buick in Collinsville, IL. They can have discounts in the 30% range.
Do you guys think this is a good price? All I can think that may be ready to do is to include the accessory without the extra cost (that will save me couple of hundred bucks).
The only added advantage in going with this deal is that the dealer is the closest to where I am

Now that my history is out of the way. I am looking to buy the 2017 CR-V EX AWD, I've been emailing and shopping around for the best deal, since I've never bought a new car before, I've been working from advice from friends and family.
Last weekend we went to a dealer that offered the best price via email: $25,075 (not including des. fee)
'17 CR-V EX AWD
Here was the pricing they gave us:
$26,541 (including des. fee)
$189 Etch (in final negotiation I will NOT be paying for this scam fee)
$499 Doc Fee
$1,835 Tax (I live in NJ, tax is about 7%)
$7.50 tire fee
$400 DMV
OTD $28,945.26
Ideally, I am shopping around to get $25,551 (including des. fee) this is about 12% off the MSRP, is this feasible? Or is that a pipe dream? Could I go even lower?
When are the best deals going to happen for the 2017s, or is it pretty much now...
At some point, the available stock will get to a point where the negotiating advantage tips back in favor of the dealer.

2015 Subaru Outback 3.6R / 2014 MINI Countryman S ALL4
2017 Honda CR-V EX-L FWD
Dark Olive with Black interior
Location: Dallas TX Metro Area.
Dealer: Huggins Honda, North Richland Hills, TX 76180
Sale Price : $26,550 + $220 Accessories + $370 Doc fee + $1660 Tax
Final out the door price is $28,800
Financing: My own financing from Bank Of America 2.29 APR for 48 months.
Looks like I got around 12% off of MSRP or around $3K off MSRP. I felt that I should have negotiated another $500 off that price easily. They kind of accepted my offer without much hassle. I visited one more dealer before them and best they could do is $29,500 OTD with their financing.

With a $499 Doc fee which is just profit, I think you can get for 26,000 which is 10.5% off (.895 multiplier). Zero for Etch.
Is the $400 DMV fee legit or another profit center?
I followed a lot of post before my purchase 12% appears to be possible on higher trims but not the norm. I see the norm around 10% +/-. For the record i settled for 9.1% off with 250 doc on my EXL FWD but it was the exact car i wanted (FWD are hard to find in my area).
Aim high and you come out better! So go for 12%

Thanks for your analysis
I got around 10% off MSRP. What do you think would have made this a better deal.
The lowest quote I got was 26100 ( but the dealership was 4 hours away from I am),
Most recent quote i got for 2017 HONDA CR-V EX-L AWD in Sacramento is $31600 ($28740+Tax), Do you think i will get better deal waiting till year end. Any projection on when 2018 CRV will be in market.?
Please let me know.

This forum has been very helpful. I wanted to see the price I received is considered good price?
Based in upstate NY.
EX AWD
$26700 MSRP
Thanks
So a 10% discount on a 2017 EX AWD is (28095+940) *.9 =$26131
Doing it this way you get 10% off 28095 and then 10% off the $940 or a additional $94.
If someone post a good deal on an EXL AWD then to get an equivalent deal on an EX subtract 2,250 since an EXL is MSRP 2500 more than an EX but you need to apply the same 10% discount to the 2500 (2500*.9=2250)
for example
Someone posted on another forum they got an EXL for 28000 (this was a 11% discount) + 250 doc fee +TTL. So an equivalent price should be 2250 less or $25,750 + $250 + TTL.
A 10% discount on an EX should be easy to get and a 12% a lot harder, 12% seems to happen more on the touring models.
if you would negotiating a 10% reduction in lieu of a price and you did not clarify that the reduction was on MSRP included the destination then dealerships would set up the 10% reduction prior to destination and then add the full value of destination gaining $94.
This is in the Tampa, FL area. Please let me know your thoughts. Suggestions on what I should be targeting would be appreciated. Thanks!

The more dealers you involve, the better your chances are of getting a good price.

I got an offer from a dealer for an AWD 2018 CR-V EX $28,204. Does that sound about right or am I going to be paying too much?
Any tips on this would be helpful. Thanks!
