$18,217 OTD for a 2010 Fit Sport A/T w/Navi all weather mats, cargo tray.

 

I believe my wife and I arrived before you. Jon mentioned someone was coming in the same day from PA to pick up a car also. We flew into BWI and left Frederick, MD around 3 PM ET. Arrived in Dallas Friday night at about 11 PM CT. 1350 miles whew!!!! We love the car.

 

$17,850 for a Polished Metal Metallic Sport A/T, no nav. Absolutely love it. Also got the 0.9% APR that started this March.

 

18,425 miles
1 owner (dealer car)

Yup, he mentioned you guys had just left when we arrived. You still hold the record for longest drive, but it was still a pain for me to organize. Grats on the car!

 

2010 (black) sport auto w/o nav $16,933 0.9 finance got 5,000 for the trad, and 3000 down, payment $170

 

$18,077 - 2011 Fit Sport (auto, non-nav) - Vortex Blue

Traded in a 2008 Infiniti G35x for the Fit!

Financed (after trade minus payoff) $10k with the 0.9% financing.

 

Congratulations to you also! My wife and her friends love the car. I still can't believe the prices down here in Texas. > 18 for a 2010 ???

 

So 18077 destination, fees and taxes included??

 

No tax since the trade was more than the new car! $18,077 includes destination but not fees. I don't remember the exact number but it was probably 18,250 or something like that (don't have the numbers in front of me). Needless to say I wouldn't use my purchase price as an example of what to strive for. One could do better. I fought much harder on what I got for my trade since that was the bigger number anyway. Ended up financing $10k after trade, payoff, etc.

 

I knew those numbers weren't right. :P

Without tax and fees, that's still a good price in the area, but I hate to say it--PA area dealers are scum.

I live in the Philly area too and visited EVERY respectable dealer and couldn't get anything near that price... So I drove to MD.

 

Use truecar.com they're super helpful in getting a good price in your area. I got a smoking deal on my fit that way.

 

2011 Milano Red Fit Sport with Auto. 16795 + dest, reg and taxes. Only had 6 miles on it.

 

Got it from Roberts in Downingtown.

 

2009 Fit Sport
After tax, title and 2 year registration, total $12,655

Had my four "musts" Sport, Black, 5 speed and one owner excellent condition.
Came with some nice genuine Honda add-ons; floor mats, wheel locks, rear bumper applique, door sill trim and Accord horn. Also paint matched shark fin antenna, quality window tint and LoJack.

So far couldn't be happier, love the car. It does need the valve spring recall done but I knew that in advance and no concern for me.

What do you think of this quote for the Boston area for a 2011 Fit Sport - no navigation?

$16,800
$298 document fee
$125 registration
$1,050 - 6.25% tax
---------------
$18,273 OTD

 

Automatic or manual?
Document fee is basically garbage. Maybe a legit $30 or so fee in there. Ask them to itemize with details and explain what it is. Probably just pure profit.

Sorry - should have said it is automatic. I've gotten quotes from 3 dealers ($17,700, $16,998, $16,800 - told him the other quote) - all have said there is that same $298 fee. The $16,800 guy told me that in MA the state makes them charge it and it is bet. $200 and $400. Perhaps that is b.s.?

Thanks for your reply

 

As near as I can tell, MA doesn't cap what they charge, but there's no law that says they must charge it. Think about it this way, if MA charged a fee for new car documentation, that would be part of the tax and title, not a separate line.

If it isn't paid to the state though, then its just a way of the dealer rigging the game.

 

You should be able to independently verify that documentation fee if it's legit. In cook county, IL there is a doc fee, $15. You don't mention destination fees, which is $750, is that included in that 16,800. If yes, then that's a pretty good deal. Good luck.
