Help!!! cheapest price for 2003 DX

Hi,

I am planning to buy the latest 2003 civic DX sedan (automatic gear)
with no additions.

the dealer website show MSRP = 17000 and Taxable total = 18010.

what is the CHEAPEST price I can get for this model.

thanks in advance!!!

Jerry

PS - I live in mississauga

its hard to say, you sometimes can bargain so you might get a lower price than what i or others might say. so you'd just have to go in and see.

there is NOTHING wrong with auto!!!!! Maybe jerry has no choice, you never know

civic_chick works at some dealer, no? She said she can get deals or whatever maybe... just send a mass e-mail to all Ontario dealers and get the best price.

Take a friend's car and drive around the parking lot. I showed my causin and it took her only 30 mins, of course it takes a bit longer to be good at it. But when you go to manual you just cant come back to auto. Just my .02 cents

Is it ok man, no one was born knowing how to drive a standard. Practice makes it perfect.

For beginners, you gotta know how to go from staionary to shift to 1st gear and make the car go without stalling. Once you get that, 2nd to 5th (or 6th) won't be that hard.

I can say, with your talent, you should be fine in 1 to 2 hours.

finally found one

the mass mailing had its effect.

I mailed 10 dealers. got 2 responses.

I took the best offer.

the MSRP on the website was 18010.00 with no extra options.

TORONTO HONDA offered me 16897.00 with no extra options.

in case you plan to buy from Toronto Honda, email

Stephen Abrams at newcars@torontohonda.com


Thanks!!! Barbulo Vicrum Mookragee.

Well I am gonna stick with my CRX.

I don't make enough money (atleast thats what Cambridge Honda told me and RBC)
They want me to make $15,000/yr to finance a $12,000 car. Which pretty much means I have to finish school, but with the ways my CRX is acting up, its looking like I'll need a new car or I won't be able to get to school. So ya I'm kinda in a dilmenma.

My dad says he can't co-sign for me since he's considering a new car in the next yr or so, doesn't wanna have loans/debts out on 2 cars.

So um ya... no one else will co-sign...

Ah well, no one said life is fair!

See what I mean by miracle :cry:
