Enough ranting, can you recommend a salesperson at San Leandro? Like you, I have the time to wait for the right price, but am ready to move forward if I could find a good dealer.

I am trying internet sales this time, using email only. Just use the dealership's website to request a quote and they will email you. I have already test driven a Fit and got blank check financing through CapitalOne. I don't need the car that badly, so any price/equipment shenanigans and I 'walk' - well actually not since I am already chilling at my house.

Got the call on Monday and took delivery from San Leandro Honda last night. The person who helped me was Griselda Perez and I would recommend this dealership to anyone.

Another congratulations! Thanks for showing us that not ALL Bay Area Honda dealers rip everyone off just because they can.

Yeah it was very painless. I would recommend the exact strategy I described above to anyone considering a car purchase. The Fit I picked up had 1.3 miles on it after PPI. No test drives.

As for financing, 5.89% through Capital One is pretty much unbeatable if you qualify. Unless... they are running special financing through manufacturer's incentives. Which ain't happenin for the Fit. I think they came up with 6.5? Can't remember.
