  1. What's considered a bad customer at a dealership?

    That's so strange. Maybe it's because I came in later in the evening but Wilde only asked me once during the paperwork process if I wanted any of the warranty garbage. I told them "no" and we moved on. We went to Honda City three separate times (test drive, initial negotiation, final). On the...
  2. What's considered a bad customer at a dealership?

    This wasn't at Schlossman's was it? See your from Milwaukee and this sounds similar to the long, drawn out purchase they tried putting me through.
  3. Any past hondas anyone's had?! Would love to see them

    Had to chime in here when I saw your question! Here is my perfectly clean bone-stock SI purchased back in '09. My very first car, a 1990 Integra, is in the background. And here it is after someone must have wanted it really bad. Professional job - stolen during a blizzard. Stripped clean...
  4. Winter Woes

    Noticed the foggy windows with all the snow this weekend. Seemed like turning off eco and running the AC at full blast gave the best results. That being said, I thought the car handled great in the snow. Drove 30 miles on snow-covered city roads and highways with the stock tires without any issues.
  5. Weird, waxy shell-like substance on edge of door

    I can't quite tell from your picture but I had something similar by my fuel lid. I *believe* cars are shipped with some sort of tape on them to keep things like the fuel door from popping open during shipment. When I got the car, you could tell there was some adhesive still stuck to the car from...
  6. Post your tinted windows

    Finally pulled the trigger and got my Civic tinted today. Went with Llumar CTX ceramic 35% all the way around and nothing on the front windshield. It's a tad darker than I expected. Probably would have gone a bit lighter (maybe 40%?) but that won't happen unless Johnny Law gives me any issues!
  7. What did you pay?

    I think this is a key point. One stellar deal at a single dealership does not mean that deal can be had by anyone at any dealership. We encountered the same pushback when inching below $21k. Sure I could drive to Ohio, for example, and hope for a heck of a good deal but that's not something I'm...
  8. What did you pay?

    Appreciate the honest feedback - although the only thing it can do is make me doubt my purchase! :) I know what others on this board have paid as I've been through nearly ever page of the thread but, as I mentioned previously, dealers around here just didn't seem to want to budge. I've been in...
  9. What did you pay?

    I still don't know how some people got such stellar deals as I tried all the tricks suggested but we finally pulled the trigger last night and feel pretty good about what we paid: 2016 Honda Civic EX-T, WOP $20,700 before TTL and $219 dealer fee $22,264 OTD The dealer I had been working with...
  10. What did you pay?

    Been lurking here for a number of weeks now (I think I've read every post on this thread!). We've been shopping around the Milwaukee area looking for a decent deal on an EX-T. Almost every dealer doesn't want to talk numbers unless you are sitting at their desk and the best "deal" I've been able...
