Hi Everyone,
New poster here. Used to buying Fords over the last 15 plus years. And during all of those purchases, there were always large discounts to be had. Several thousand or more under MSRP. I'm finding out quickly that's not the case with Honda vehicles. Never thought it was in the first place, but confirmed now. I'm interested in a 2017 Civic EX-T Manual. Not too many of those around. Even in the Washington, DC area.
Anyway, seems some dealers are NOT discounting the manuals as much as CVT's. Have a few goof quotes on CVT's that I'm not interested in (Dealers didn't pay attention that I asked about a manual EX-T) coming in at around $21.7 before doc fee and TTL but none lower with manual. In fact 2 dealers said the CVT's were cheaper than the manuals due to very low inventory. No matter that the manual in build and price online is $800 lower. Has anyone else run into this while buying a manual EX-T? They aren't more than CVT's are they?
Also, like the title says, does Honda really discount anything more during this upcoming weekend? I'm seeing commercials like crazy about it. Since Honda doesn't seem to discount much in the first place (They obviously don't need to) is this weekend really anything special?
Lastly, does Honda offer any sort of "Private Cash" like Ford or Chevy? Usually it's $500 off if you get a brochure. Or like VW where you can join a club and get an extra $500 off? I don't see anything just looking around, but didn't see it with Ford right at the beginning. Had to dig to find it.
Any tips buying a Honda would be appreciated. And yes, I'm reading!! Thanks in advance! Great site!
