Buying a car from a Honda Car Dealer
Matt, I've been shopping for an Si Sedan w/ Navi for about 3 months, and just yesterday I finally started the process of buying one from a dealership that was willing to be reasonable. Biggest advice for you: know what you're talking about, and be honest but firm with the dealers, and remember that THEY need to earn YOUR patronage, not the other way around. I've worked with 5 or 6 different dealers, and alot of them were the stereotype of the greasy salesman. Keep in mind that there ARE good dealers, you just have to find them. How I did that was work through my bank and Costco's car buying services, and also by writing to all of the dealers within ~150-200 miles, giving them the price I'm after and exactly what I want. The car buying service will probably get you the best deal, but not necessarily. Through Costco, I found a dealership that offered me $400 over invoice, and they have been upfront, honest, and helpful the entire time. As for the emails, dealerships that write back to your initial low-end offer are probably the ones who are more willing to negotiate for lower prices. Working with internet sales reps usually goes better, since they assume that you know your stuff. Work with the various dealerships, show you're interested but not desperate, and get real price quotes. And don't be afraid to go in, do a test drive, negotiate a price, and walk out if necessary. I had to do that with one place, because they wanted to charge over $24k. I told them "[This] dealership offered [this] price ($22,288, $400 over invoice)" and went from there. When they tried to lie to me about what other dealerships had in stock, I called them myself, got the real story, confirmed the VIN#, and started to put down a deposit on another car with the honest dealer. I basically walked out at that point, and it was only then, as I was getting in my car to go finish things up with the honest dealer, that they came up to my car, opened my door, and offered me a more realistic price ($20,900 for the Sedan, no Nav or Tires). At that point, I considered taking it, and easily could have, but instead opted to go with the honest dealer, and get the Navi with it as well. In summary, work with multiple dealers, compare their prices, and be firm enough to do what is in YOUR best interest. Arm yourself with info about invoice prices from here on Edmunds, and a good knowledge of the car and what's in it, what things are worth, and what YOU want. By the way, I'm in Medford, OR. I'm in the process right now of buying a silver Si sedan w/Nav from a dealer in Eugene, OR (150-ish miles away) for $22,288. Not really in your area, but you had asked for that info...
No sales tax in OR as opposed to a whopping 9.2% here in Washington. Of course, we don't have a state income tax and our property taxes are less as "they" keep reminding us.
All, Ive never owned any Honda products and have decided on an EX-V6 w/o NAV, plus the lip spoiler on the trunk. I've sent requst for quotes to dealers from Portland to Medford, and the best offer is $24,032.00, all inclusive. Is this a decent deal?
