Hi, i am new at this forum and from yesterday a new fit sport owner (the car is still not delivered).
I went to the honda dealership and bought a honda fit sport automatic for 22175 msrp, the salesman gave me free mats with the car but now everyone arround tells me i should negotiate with them for better priceing and so on. looks like i am stupid becouse i did not ask for anything?
So what do you guys think about that? Was that a stupid thing?
I mean did anyone really got a good deal by negotiations with the delers on the new fit?

 

I tried talking down the price...but the only thing I could get knocked down was the prices of the accessories. Saved 15% off each item. They didnt even think about dropping the car price any....I hear not many dealerships in Canada would.

 

i paid 20990 i think for my 5spd, but then of course i got my $1000 rebate. so it was 19,990 then got free floor matts, but ask if you can get the rear cargo cover to!!!! i totally forgot that it was an option, and not just included and its a $230 accessory!!. lol but yea after taxes and freight and pdi and all that crap, it came out to be $22xxx something.

 

Paying MSRP for the fit is not bad, just try and get some free stuff like floor mats, cargo tray and maybe a few free oil change.

I paid MSRP and don't even care... the car is great

 

wow you guys pay a lot. You should get one in US and make it driveable in CA. MSRP for our sports are around 15-16k mt/at And I know the exchange is about the same now for US vs CA money.

 

my friend payed (never go back to richmond honda in his lifetime again) 24,585 for the last ssm 07 mt sport (which tunrs out to be the test drive vehicle and had been sitting in the lot for the whole summer with over 140kms prior to sell)

i chose the base cuz im smart..oh and last thing, never buy cars at richmond (they cant speaka english)

 

I was really thinking about buying my Sport in the US and many other Canadians were considering it too. Then Honda and other companies heard about this too...and said to American dealers not to sell to Canadians.

After duties and such, I still wouldve saved about 2-3000 dollars.

 

Wow, that sucks! You guys pay absurd amount for the Fit :T

 

Your friend just needs to learn how to negotiate. I bought my 08 VBP Base Manual Fit for $700 off MSRP, no options, 2 free oil changes, with 10 KM on the odometer, also at Richmond Honda.

 

Good for u !! I only got $500 off when i buy my Fit LX in Richmond Honda.

 

I got 500$ off the MSRP plus 400$ in accessories. I also drove out of town for it, the city dealers I talked with at the time refused to even negotiated.
