White Sport Auto availble.

I just got a call from a saleman in Lewisville Texas. He has a white sport automatic and he is asking $18,163 for it. I don't have the extra money so I can't take it. It has some extras on it. He called it a pro pack. Cargo tray, floor mats, mud guards, pin stripes and window tinting. Not to bad of a deal. I asked how it got there without being spoken for. He thinks it was a dealer trade. Who knows. It is there now if you want you should hurry. I'm kinda stuck with paying MSRP. I have enough to pay for one and get my tag and insurance but I can't afford the extras. Lewisville is only three hours from me in Oklahoma. It is a suburb on the north side of Dallas. Call 972-742-5794.

$18K + for it? I'd tell him to pound sand. MSRP is $16.5k

I thanked him for calling and told him that I couldn't go that high. That is why I put the info on this thread. It wouldn't hurt to call him. If he is asking too much, and we all know he is, he should come down a little. There is some value in the extras, the tinting is the best thing, I don't want to go that much for one. I told him that if I spent that much I would get a Civic LX auto. MSRP for that is $18,080.

MSRP 16.5K is what I was quoted for my Taffeta White Fit Sport with AT. I would not buy this one. And why did they add pin striping. Yuck.

It's very disappointing to read this kind of stories.

Pro pack is the same crap they pull here in Florida. Basically it's ADM, (additional dealer mark up) That's where they put $4-600 dollars worth of low end stuff on your car and charge you 2K for the "privilege", it's never a good deal
ADM is for chumps! Worse part Honda condones this crapola

My local Honda dealer has on-the-showroom floor civic's with dealer installed OEM wheel locks listed for $198. Talk about robbery. I can walk to the parts dept with a 15% discount coupon and get them for a fraction of the price and install them myself. When I asked the salesperson about high price, he said that he "would work with me" on them to drop the price. Goes to show how much they try to gouge an unprepared buyer.

When I bought my '87 Integra, they had a bling-bling model on the floor with aftermarket wheels and "modified suspension geometry". The cost for lowering (not for the wheels)? About a grand on their mark-up sheet. Cost for rear springs in reality? About a hundred bucks (suspension techniques). Cost for the front? Just the labor to adjust the screws on the torsion bars. The price gouging has alsways been going on. Only now with resources like the internet are buyers more easily educated on what fair prices are. I feel so bad for my parents who paid for the mega-scotchgard protection, super durable wax, and pinstripes in the 80's... *sigh*

Thank goodness for this forum. It allows us to share valuable knowledge amongst our community.

You'd think since people are more enlightened these days they'd change, but the ones I feel bad for are the loyal Honda buying seniors, who faithfully follow the window sticker to the right to the ADM sticker, see the "new " sticker with a $2500 mark up, and flip out the old checkbook. It's just bleed and gouge!!
I was walking by 3 salesmen who were laughing about selling a FIT for $2600 over sticker, and joking about how stupid the public is.
After walking by, I walked out
