Hello fellow Civic lovers. I am a long-time reader first-time Rider. I am writing because I have a tremendous concern and think that we should Unite and stop the dealers. I have owned Honda Civics since I was 16. I love Honda and I love the Honda Civics. The Civic type-r has been one of my long-time dream cars.
I have purchased three new cars in the past and none has been as terrible as trying to purchase the Honda Civic type-r. It is not just the markups, the worst part is how rude the salesman have been. All the lying to try to get you to pay markups.
Dealers have this bad sense that it seems like everybody wants a Type R and it's not true. There is a limited number of people that want to buy a Type R and I can bet most of them are on this forum.
We need to stand strong and Unite to stop the abuse. I think most of the people that were willing to pay markups have already done so.
What we need to do is we need to stop calling every single dealer and asking about their type r's. That is creating a false hype because the dealer things that everybody in town wants to buy their Type R when in reality it is the same 30 people calling every single dealership and creating a false hype that fuels the dealers to have that Mark up stay. If we stop calling they will come to us. Trust me they want to sell the car and we are the only buyers. I know I'm guilty of the same thing I've probably called 30 dealers trying to find the Type R. What we need to do is only look at the stock on honda.com and when you see a dealer that has one go to the ones that you can drive to and if it has a markup don't even ask him about it just walk away. Once the dealers stop getting calls stop getting people coming in being interested in their Type R they will stop their BS of markups. I want a Type R like you do but the fact is that any dealer you call is going to have a markup and the only way that those markups can go away is by not calling
