- 2019 Civic Si Coupe
Got my 2019 white Si coupe for 22 k OTD in california
Sponsored
23,655 sell price - 25,452 OTD with a 1K hooptie trade that I was more than happy to just get rid of.
... What dealer in GA did you buy from? ...
22k OTD? That's impressive. What was the breakdown? Meaning: selling price of car, TTL, & any feesGot my 2019 white Si coupe for 22 k OTD in california
Was this a new SI you purchased a while ago or a used one?Got my 2019 white Si coupe for 22 k OTD in california
Sorry, I remembered incorrectly it was actually 23.6 OTD.22k OTD? That's impressive. What was the breakdown? Meaning: selling price of car, TTL, & any fees
I made a revision lol it was actually 23.6 OTD, I accidentally misled the public. But yeah it was new.Was this a new SI you purchased a while ago or a used one?
1. OTD pricing is typically negotiated with the sales manager.hi, old guy but newbie in the car dealer rip-off industry. I'm in the market of a bnew civic si and from what i've been reading here is that you guys basically ask dealers for OTD price.
a little horror/horrible story for you guys. We (me and my wife) have been robbed 3 times buying bnew cars (2 from honda and 1 from toyota). And we always get sucked into buying extended warranty, GAP and more. As an example, we bought a 20K car and ended up 29K OTD payable 72 months. (calm down guys! no more bashing please!)
So, if you guys can help me out here so that i won't make the same mistakes anymore.
Is this how you negotiate...?
1. ask dealers OTD price
2. ignore extended warranty and GAP insurance and basically ignore all the BS that they offer specially what the finance guy is selling
another story...my friend just bought a bnew 2019 honda pilot. Asked him if he bought extended warranty and he said yes because the finance guy told him that because modern cars nowadays have computers and they are expensive to repair so they ended up buying EW and GAP. (again, no more bashing please, and pardon my english it's not my native language)
btw, i live in norcal and i'm an immigrant.
thank you in advance
thanks!1. OTD pricing is typically negotiated with the sales manager.
2. Once you've agreed to that, you goto the F&I/backoffice person where the Extended warranty , GAP, and financing are typically discussed. That's where you can decline the warranty or GAP. If you want the extended warranty, that's up to you, but the GAP can be covered by your auto insurance so I would always decline that.
Something that I like to do is get OTD quotes online first from local dealerships. You get the quote in writing and compare quotes and say oh so and so dealer gave me this, can you beat it? Let the dealerships compete for your business. You can also research local prices in your area and try to hit that number in a dealership but that's harder unless you got some real haggling charm. ALWAYS negotiate in OTD prices, don't get suckered into talking monthly payments if you finance, typical finances are 60 months anyways. Always do OTD and when you get in that finance room, that final number on paper should be that OTD number you negotiated or else tell them to shove it.hi, old guy but newbie in the car dealer rip-off industry.

I was born and grew up in Valdosta, now live in Lake Park, 5 miles north of the GA/FL line.(Valdosta) <> Way down south! I was born and raised in Macon, GA, now live 10 miles south of Chattanooga.
Can I ask where in CA you got the car? That's a great price. I got my 19' White Si in June of 2019 for 22.7 before TTL in the bay area.Sorry, I remembered incorrectly it was actually 23.6 OTD.
Car was $21,300.05, $86 doc fee, $1871.20 sales tax, $30 some electronic registration fee, $313.75 registration fees and stuff. I hope those are the right numbers lol, there are so many numbers. I put a down payment of 10 k so I financed 13.6 k at 1.9%. my payments were like $244, but I paid off the car recently.
I got it in southern california (orange county), message me for specifics. I don't like giving them free publicity lol.Can I ask where in CA you got the car? That's a great price. I got my 19' White Si in June of 2019 for 22.7 before TTL in the bay area.
