Re: 08 Civic Sedan EX-L auto w/o navi [cmp_crv_exl08]

What dealership is this from? I received a quote yesterday from McGrath Honda in Elgin, IL for $20,416 (selling price only) which is $725 over invoice. It looks like your selling price is less than invoice. Anyone else in the Chicago suburbs getting below or at invoice pricing?

Response by internet with Honda dealers very good, not so good with Toyota.Anyway I shopped a 2008 Civic Lx sedan automatic for my Daughter paid $16650.00 that included dest. and all weather floor mats. It was a little bit of a battle ,they are there to separate you from as much of you hard earned $$ as possible,don't let it happen.Get a fair price. McGrath Honda Elgin,il..I may go back soon to get an Accord for myself.Good luck everyone.

McGRATH HONDA CHICAGO ST ELGIN, IL 60120 I cannot post the name of the sales person. but i did sent the internet request so probably he deals with that dept. you can also try sending an email request first. lemme tell u one more thing, first he said my (dealer) invoice is 29000 and i can get u one for that price,as if i am a layman. i said thanks for ur time but i am not looking forward to this price. he asked me what price i have i told him with the assesory it is invoice price. so he offered me below invoice price at that time. i would say u might have to negotiate to get that price but Good luck.... Thanks

hjc- The prices here in IL seem to be a bit higher than NJ and CA. I contemplated buying in NJ (i'm from an area near there), but for the hassle I just did it here. Grand seems to have lower prices but they are known for being, well -cheap and sneaky (i'm being nice about it). I got a quote from them and worked it from there. Honda of Lisle was real quick to match but wanted a credit card to hold the car (yeah right). I did hear from a former collegue who did an awesome deal through the online sales department with Jacobs Twin (it's on the edge of the city). He somehow ended up getting a CR-V for $1500 under invoice in December. I got mine at Schaumburg, and they were good to deal with. Ideally I could have messed with Grand and saved another $4-500 or about $1K by going to NJ, but like I said the hassel was the offset for me. IL sales tax at Schaumburg was 7%, and I had a trade as well. I could have done better on the trade by selling it outright, but it's just a thought for next time. Package deal may go to your benefit. Never hurts to just call somewhere and get an idea. I called McGrath in Elgin, O'hare and Motorwerks in Barrington but never went. Just wanted an idea of who had lower prices and were easier to deal with. just my 2 cents ;) Best advice is to reasearch and print out anything you find and take it with you. Schaumburg tried to stick KBB invoice price on me when Intellichoice was about $1K less.

My Honda experience w/ 2 different dealers

I'm looking for some suggestions from others on this. As you may have read in my previous posts, I have been searching for a 2004 Civic LX with a 5 speed and side airbags in blue. Well, as it turns out, there were only a couple such cars withing a 5 state search area near me. The dealer near my house (McGrath Honda in Elgin, IL) had been trying to get one of the 2 cars that are out there in trade for one of their other cars. They had one of them in Madision Wisconsin that my sales rep was going to pick up, but when he called the other dealership on the phone, they let him know that one of their new sales reps had sold it the day before. Okay...understandable mistake I suppose. No harm done. The other dealer that had the exact car that I wanted was Honda of Lisle, Illinois. My local dealership tried to get them to trade something for the car, but they came back with trade options which they knew could not possibly be met (they were asking for cars that weren't available!). So after going back and forth with them, my sales person finally told me, "Warner, if you have to have the side airbags, you're going to have to buy the car from them, because they won't trade us anything that we can get for it." So relectantly (I wanted the McGrath Honda sales rep to get something for his troubles - he worked with me extensively and went on several test rides with me in different vehicles) I called Honda of Lisle. First I spoke with a normal sales rep, and told him what my offer from both McGrath Honda in Elgin and carsdirect.com was on the car that they had. He told me he'd check on it and call me back momentarily. Sure enough, another sales person (Mark, who apparently is the manager over at Honda of Lisle) gets on the phone with me and offers me the car for over $700 MORE than the quote that I got from McGrath Honda in Elgin! He went on to tell me that it was a very "rare" car and that it was the only one like it in a 5 state area, which was basically true. I explained to him that the reason the car was so "rare" was because not many people want the manual transmission. After a very heated conversation with him, letting him know that he had insulted my intelligence with his crazy offer, I told him to keep his "rare" car and that I would buy the car without the side air bags from the dealer that treated me right. Of course, less than an hour later the original rep from Honda of Lisle called me back asking me how things had gone (claiming that he hadn't spoken with Mark yet to find out from him how it had gone). I told him that they had gone terrible, that I was offended by their offer, and had purchased another car from someone else already (which was partially true). Then he had the gall to propose that I meet them "half way" on the price. I laughed at him and told him that he must not be listening to me - he kept saying "I understand where you're coming from" to which I kept responding "Obviously, you don't, or you'd know that I was not interested in anything other than the offer than I had originally from 2 other sources, but now that I knew how they conducted business I wouldn't buy the car from them if they offered it to me for $1,000 LESS than the other dealer. I also told him that I planned on writing to the Regional manager of Honda explaining what had happened. Now, I KNOW that it's the dealers option of how much they want to take for a particular car, but that was like highway robbery! I told both of the less than scrupulous sales reps at Honda of Lisle that they could have sold the car that night to me....I was fully prepared to come there an pick it up from them, if only they had been fair with me. Honda of Lisle has a decent website that shows their inventory....I'm going to keep track of this blue lx 5-speed with side airbags and see how long they sit on it. If it sits for a month, I'm going to send them an e-mail, reminding them that they could have sold it to me a month ago. :) As far as what I will end up with, the GOOD dealer (McGrath Honda in Elgin, IL) is getting me a blue 5-speed LX without the side airbags. On top of that, they had someone recently buy an EX who didn't like the alloy wheels and opted to replace them with something else (which to me was a bad choice, but it's his car), so they had these brand new EX wheels looking for a home. I believe they are almost $900 if you get them as an option on the LX, but they are letting me have them for $419. My total on the blue LX 5-speed with the EX rims on it is going to be $14,700 (including destination charges). I like the wheels a LOT better than the stock LX covers, so I think it all worked out well. My personal experience with Honda of Lisle should be taken into consideration by anyone thinking of buying from them....after all, they are supposed to be NICE when they are trying to get you to comitt....Lord knows how they treat people after they've taken the plunge already!
