Honda Civic Type-R Over sticker dealer naughty list.

[revin9k]

I'm in cali and knew I didn't stand a chance at MSRP. I found a dealer out of state and put it in writing. I suggest you do the same if you're in CA. There are good dealers out there believe it or not. Just have to put in the due diligence

Ill probably do the same, best bet is snow states where they want their AWD.

I completely agree with you 10,000,000%. Which is why I'm probably gonna buy my CTR from a dealer in the South New Jersey/Philadelphia area where my parents live.

Anyone from that area know of good reputable dealers that arent out to screw their buyers?

Just make sure if you buy from NJ, they dont have the front plate mount with holes drilled. If you buy from PA, you wont have that issue since we only have a rear plate. I went to buy a mercedes a few years back in NJ that had the plate mount and holes in the front bumper. i passed on it an found one in PA. Was a little more expensive, but the front plate mount would have bothered me every time i looked at the car.

The horrible dealer network is what's going to kill this car. I feel Honda dealers are pretty snobby just because buyers and dealers feel the product is superior to the competition. When the new insight landed both my Illinois dealer and a Florida dealer of a friend acted the same way, like big white whales.

I've been doing the same. Unfortunately, I haven't found a dealer that's not too far away with solid info.

I can vouch for California, Honda in Irvine is doing 10k over markup along with Valencia.

Honda of Serramonte in Daly City, CA wanted 5k over msrp.

Oh I know, my 2010 Si that I had a few years back had a front plate holder when I bought it. I told the dealer to remove it before I left with the car. Luckily the holes weren't visable

Yeah I don't drill the front bumper, I've never gotten a ticket for having no front plate

Some States, or cities, are very relaxed about it. Here in CA, they'll spot you very easily and are quick to give a fine or fix-it tickets.

$35k is a good price, but $45k and up here in Illinois I believe will be a tough sell for fwd performance car. At that price point you can get a 2016-17 camaro ss 1le or if you love hatches a golf r that offers awd.

Do we have a list of dealers asking over MSRP right now so people looking can avoid messing with these dealers? Avoid these dealers!

I'll start if we don't already have one:

Quoted all replies so far: Avoid these dealers. And no I will not remove any dealership from this post. Greedy dealership should be punished .

Avondale,AZ Honda is requesting 2500$ ADM
Scottsdale,AZ Honda is doing 2500$ on the first type R then 5,000$ markup on the other 2 after.
Surprise,AZ Honda NO ADM but mandatory 1500$ dealer add on package, tint zagtech etc. aka dealer mark up.


Rick Case Honda South Florida ADM pending .


Honda Irvine, Honda Valencia 10K OVER.

Honda of Serramonte in Daly City, CA 5 K OVER.


5k over MSRP at Honda of San Marcos, TX

What really bugs me about this.. After 30 years of waiting... Is the fact that many people in those states will say.... Time to go get my first ford or first vw or subaru.. Bye bye honda

Just go ahead and add all the CA dealers. Especially Honda in Valencia. He said I'll take a $10k deposit on MSRP + $10k markup. Guy was a complete jerk.

Add Rick Case Honda here in South Florida. I've spoken to the General Sales Manager twice, and he said they plan to add a mark up on top of the mark up. I told him, you guys are going to shoot yourselves in the foot by doing that, he just laughed at me and said there will be ppl that will pay it since it's the first CTR in the US, and he's probably right too. They are the largest volume moving Honda dealer here in South Florida so they'll probably get 2-3 CTR's for the year. I can holy hope that once the hype is over I'll be able to find one.

Wow, in both of these cases, as well as others cited here, if the dealerships are this arrogant I would just walk AND never go back to buy any other car from them - ever!

I had a local Ford dealership try this on me when I was looking for a Shelby. In the end, they lost out as I, or any of my family, will never buy a vehicle from them for life. I found a much better deal in the end, elsewhere.
