Honda Civic Type-R Over sticker dealer naughty list.

[Boostez]

I’m not talking about losing “value” but paying over msrp for a used type r is just not feasible. Why would anyone in their right mind pay over msrp for a used type r when they can find one at msrp.

It depends on how "used" the car is. If the dealer is selling for over MSRP for a brand new one ($5k-$15k), and there is a used one that has 1k miles on it for MSRP at the same dealer, why not? You are saving money.

Now if you say you can find a TypeR for MSRP anywhere in the states so why buy a used one for MSRP, then yea, I agree with you. The question will boil down to how far do they have to travel to get one for MSRP. Is it worth the $1k to get it shipped from another state? Maybe.. or maybe not.

Ok. There are so many people complaining about the ADM. Has anyone thought that this car is too low for MSRP. Honda will not continue to release these to the U.S. indefinitely. With the plant closing in UK, they will not be able to produce them past 2020. Their goals are set on electric vehicles for the 11th generation. So this is possibly the last year of the TypeR as we know it. 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020. Done. Look at the Integra TypeR. That wasn't made several years in a row. They stopped that production too.

I guess what I'm saying is - maybe the car is literally worth the $42-$48k the dealers are asking for.

Drove 30 mins to get mine as Msrp in NY. It just takes looking around.

It's not worth what the dealers are asking. It's a very special Civic, but it's still a Civic underneath it all.

Also, the UK plant is closing after this generation is done, sometime after 2021. Production of the next-gen Type-R would be moved to the US afterwards.

What does "it's still a Civic underneath" mean? That it's made of less quality? It's not a good car? By your reasoning, I should say "My EVO isn't worth it's resale value because afterall it's still a Lancer underneath.." That's silly.

This generation is done after model year 2020. You aren't going to see 10th gen TypeRs in 2021 that have the same chassis as what we have now (i.e. they already mentioned next gen would be hybrid electric tech). If they move construction to the US, they still have to build it up from scratch. You think that doesn't take any time at all?

Love reading about these shenanigans concerning the MSRP. So glad I bought mine earlier this year and don't have to deal with this non-sense anymore.

Holman Honda in Fort Lauderdale had a $7500 upcharge on the window of a 2019 PMM CTR. They dropped it after I laughed about it. Still ended up being too high.

I can't believe this charade is still going on. I bought mine for MSRP + the price of locking wheel lugs and all weather floor mats in Staten Island Honda. If I lived in California, I wouldn't even bother looking in-state. Seems like a blood bath over there.

Lol, Staten Island Honda charged me 1.5K for my CW CTR. I was ok with the extra charge since most dealerships in NY wanted over 5K for the CW.

Galpin Honda in Los Angeles charging $5000 ADM on 2019 (but was willing to reduce to get it out). Metro Honda about an hour away from LA charging $5000 ADM + $5800 dealer installed options on 2019.

Waiting for Honda of Downtown LA. I think I can get a reasonable deal there on a 2019. We'll see

Spoke with a salesman at Sloane Honda in Philadelphia PA, asking $41,845 plus tax, tags, doc fee

Just finished talking to Rosenthal Landmark in Alexandria Virginia, quoted me 41-44k OTD. When I told them I found better offers that have sold elsewhere, and that the car has been on their lot for almost a year without selling, they responded with "if you have anyone selling it for under $40k go buy it because it the best deal"
