How much lower could I get these offers if I get them competing against each other? Seems like a good deal as it stands but of course we all want to pay as least as possible. I'm willing to go with one dealer over the other because of the Honda Excellence awards they have but I think I could talk the "lesser" dealer down more.

p.s. Would it be a good idea to tell them I'm considering a Chrysler/Jeep since they are offering double for my clunker in hopes of dropping the price?
What is your definition of "out the door"? Including sales tax, plates, destination charges, etc? Here's what I'm planning on getting my Fit Sport auto (no NAV) for:

$16,479 2009 Honda Fit Sport automatic - incl. destination charges
$ 1,195 Sales tax
$ 151 Doc fee
$ 80 Plate transfer from van

Total Cost - $17,905

Minus $4,500 for van on C.A.R.S. program

Finance $13,405 for 60 months

PS - I'm getting $500 better than what the dealer is generally offering because of some "confusion" that I ran into there a month ago...will explain in great detail after I sign papers and know for sure what is what.
