I’m going to the dealership on Monday to talk to the sales manager. I have two payments left on my Golf and will try to get them to buy it out. If I have to pay a bit more a month, at least I seem to have a solid base deal going.
Taxes are $750. I asked if the monthly payment included the tax and they said it did. It also matched up in the calculator here (was off by $2 and I’m not sure which variable affected it). The dealer is Grossinger Honda on Western Ave. My customer care specialist contact was extremely helpful answering every question. I can give you direct email if you want.
I’m in San Jose area. What would be a good deal for Honda Civic EX with sensing and no money down for 12K miles/year for the 2017 model given that we are very close to the model year end
My numbers was after all tax & fees, but that still sounds like a better deal than I can get here in Chicagoland. Not sure why all the hotdeals are in Cali.
What color did you get? I may finalize things tomorrow, and will likely choose between my fav color Cosmic BLue in an EX, or a Steel Metalic EX-T. I prefer the turbo, but prefer the Cosmic Blue color.
Did you test drive both engines. How did you feel they compared in acceleration and noise level. The turbo is obvioulsy faster, but the base engine seemed managable. I want to drive the base engine car a second time, but with the trans in sport mode.
Didn’t drive the EX-T after I realized best EX-T deal with sensing was at least 35$ pm more than EX with sensing and didn’t want to cross $250 on a second car. Ex is alright - not too powerful but definitely not bad both in the city and on the highway
With California’s 9+% tax got it for 225.5ish after tax. Color is Modern steel metallic. Part of the reason apart from MSRP diff seems to be the dealers here have relatively lower EX-Ts in their inventory for some reason (and incidentally most of them are cosmic blue)
I orig was going to get sensing, but it is missing the two features I’d want the most, blindspot and rear cross traffic. Also, besides the added $1k package, it drops residuals by 2%. So I am considering the EX $224, EX-T $244, and the EX-L $277. Those prices are all in, but without sensing. Mostly ruled out the EX-L since I find the cloth in the Civic very nice.
Oddly in IL, I cand find a EX-T or EX-L in Cosmic Blue. They are mostly gray or silver. Whereas the EX in Cosmic Blue are all over the place. I think Cosmic BLue is far and away the best color. The lighter blue is nice, but would be better for the couple than the sedan. Regardless, I may have to settle for the gray.
