Talking Cost Detail: '06 HCH OS Blue Metallic

For the detail minded:

Base MSRP.......... $21,850 ............... Dealer Cash Price W Acc. $23,000.00
Destination......... 550

Accessories Price Installation
Full Nose Mask $149 $ 20
Fog Lights 319 150
All Season Fl Mats 109 7
Interior Lights 109 60
Bass System Kit 315 100
Bass Sys Att. Kit 49 (Incl)
Subtotal............$1050 $337 .... $1,387.00 Installed

NYS Waste Tire Fee............................................... ............................... 12.50
State & County Tax ......... 1897.50
Dealer Fee for Obtaining Registration & Title.................................. 45.00
Total .................................................. ........................................ $24,955.00

My salesman forgot to include the splash guards in my order - so he threw them in for free! They cost $89.00 and (my guess) $45.00 to install.

If you add the Accessories in with MSRP it comes to $22,400 + $1,387 = $23,787. They gave me a discount of $790. When you add the splash guards it's another $134 for a savings of $924.00.
There were no hidden costs or surprizes! They mentioned the extended security package & I passed. Absolutely no pressure to buy any other extras! I suppose some would say the cost of installing the options should be included. But, I know they had to order them anf install them on a new model. My dealer had never done the interior illumination install. I felt that they were very fair and negotiated with me. I recommend Hartley Honda in Jamestown, NY to anyone. They do not deal in a large volume of HCH's - mine was only the second '06 HCH they've sold. Overall I am one pleased new HCH owner !!
