...this is not for MSRP prices,... and it's also not for the people that have the money and the will to agree to terms w/o the invoice. ;O)

It's for the long awaited invoice price of the Honda Fit (both models, manual and automatic), and the people that need them.


I still see no official word on ANY of the models' invoice prices,...but when one or some of them are found, please post them here!

 

just because you know an invoice price does not mean you get a better deal.

 

Well it certainly gives you more ability to negotiate a better deal.

 

No, it means you are a more informed negotiator.

 

There are 3 parts to a deal, Price, trade in and interest rate/term. Watch them all and research all before going in.

 

You are more likely to make meaningful offers if you know the invoice, which can help you get a better deal, or at least arrive at the same deal in less time.

 

You want #'s well here they are....

dougiepants, that's not the invoice price, that's your purchase price.

 

I'm trying to get my deposit back from my local dealer because I found a better deal on financing (only 3.9% APR) from my credit union with the stipulation that I purchase for a selected dealer in the Washington DC area. She totally tried to talk me out of it, saying that she would match the APR, even though there is no way she can. She ended up telling me that they only mark up the cars $800. That means that invoice price is only $800 below MSRP. I was shocked to find out that it was so little. So MSRP is not as much of a rip off as with other vehicles...I guess.

 

Just because the dealer told you that they only mark their cars up $800 doesn't mean it's accurate information.

Don't be so gullible.

 

i too was told they mark up $800. i was also told they would sell me a sport 5 spd for $100 less than msrp.

 

Well those are the #'s I have

 

Well - if other people are getting the same information, I guess I'm not so gullible. Ha ha.

 

It may be true, but I'm just saying don't trust the dealerships who have a vested interest in getting as much money out of you as possible. Wait to hear it from Honda, and other industry insiders who are more likely to give you accurate information.

I probably could have left out the "don't be gullible" part, but my intention was to hopefully help you avoid being misled.

 

US$800 would be inline with the A$1,000 that the Australian Honda dealers make. Then on top of that here is pure profit dealer delivery ie. vehicle prep charge - very expensive car wash of A$1,500.

 

If you want a good deal, sell your old car separately and take a third-party loan.

 

Here in Canada I believe there is a 6% duty on all cars that are built outside of the NAFTA countries, meaning the Japan-made Fit has a 6% federal tax hammered into it. Obviously this reduces the margin for the 07 model. When Honda moves production North America, this means they can earn another 6% while keeping MSRP constant. For Canada anyway. I have no clue what, if any, duties there are in the US

 

no word yet I see....

 

No word on invoice price itself, but pahondadealer is willing to make a deal - 300 off msrp if we can get 5+ people together to buy from his dealership. You'd have to fly up here, but if you flew Southwest I'm sure there's some savings left.

 

Hi Dougiepants, do they tax on the MSRP or (MSRP + Destination)?
