CarCostCanada ... ?

Has anyone ever used this service? Did anyone use it to buy a Fit?

Reputable?

I was thinking of using them maybe later this year or next to pickup a Fit. I am really interested in the Dealer Sponsered pricing. Almost seems to good to be true.

I have used them to get a price for my Dad new pickup. Since the fit is selling very well, I doubt any dealer will give you a discount. Here's the price for the fit.
Retail Price* Wholesale Price**
Base $20,780.00 $19,533.00
Freight & PDI $1,225.00 $1,225.00
Optional equipment selected
- FEDERAL AIR CONDITIONING EXCISE TAX (-EXTAX) $100.00 $100.00
- STANDARD PAINT (-PT) $0.00 $0.00
Totals including all items above $22,105.00 $20,858.00

Use them they are good. It's like going on a blind date which may happen to be a rapist, but at least you have a condom, gps on you and police surveillance. That's the security!

Yes, they list all the models. The invoice price for the Sport manual is $18,311. Hope this helps. Oh, don't forget to add air tax $100 and freight/pdi $1225.

is that the invoice price from an acutal-susbscribed quote? do you think it will differ between dealers across the country? local supply/demand?

Talking

The quote is the invoice price the dealer pays honda. I got a quote for my dads GMC pickup using carcostcanada's service. They had an actual dealer in the Toronto area that gave us the price quoted from carcostcanada plus a few $$ markup, the dealer needs to make some $$ as well.
I recently got quotes for the Dodge Caliber and Honda's Fit. They both didn't include a dealer that would give me the invoice price plus a small markup. Guess these cars are hot sellers. I'm going to have to wait till mid summer to get a good price.

You can try www.apa.ca They can also get you invoice price and maybe the name of a dealer willing to part with a fit for low $$.

The quote does not change regardless of where you are. Here in Canada, the cost of freight is spread over all dealerships, so the ones closest to the port of entry (Vancouver) are screwed over.

The APA cost quote is the same as the one samsvoc quoted. (sport quote only, don't have other trims)

that is wierd,
just dropped by a local dealer and the MSRP was 19480 +shipping/pdi 1225
So retail not including taxes is 20705 CDN

It is odd that invoice is higher than the MSRP here in winnipeg.

Sorry 2ride4life, my mistake.

Prices quoted from carcostcanada does include Freight & PDI here's the break down on Fit Sport, Retail Price $19,480.00 + Freight $1225.00 + Federal Excise Tax Air Con $100.00 Total = $20,805.00
Wholesale $18,311.00 + Freight $1,225.00 + Federal Excise Tax Air Con$100.00 Total = $19,636.00. As stated above some dealers would receive additional rebates for sales volumes. Good luck dealing!
