For me, I am going to get some accessories installed, but at some later point. I will definitely buy that dimmer mirror; I test-drove a hybrid with it installed and it is quite nice, and the compass is really useful. I don't like the nav unit but a simple compass is invaluable without it.

My 06 HCH W/Nav. Price Was:
$23,900.00 HCH W/Nav. & Destination Charge
...... 300.00 Doc Fee
... 2,047.00 Accessories
... 1,957.00 Labor Install For Accessories
.28,204.00 Total Less Taxes; Title Transfer, Etc.
I Paid $26,504.00 For 06 HCH W/Accessories & Labor .....(Plus-Taxes)
That is a Savings Of $1,700.00 Dollars Plus A Free Loaner car For 3 1/2 Months and No-Car Payment On Trade In 05 Civic. They took it and paid it off. So Trade-In-Amount on 05 Civic was Locked-In:

Yeah, you're weird, Terry. Well they were ripping you off with that doc fee but it looks like they gave you labor almost for free in recognition of the fact that you got such a huge amount of accessories. And the loaner car is a good deal. How much did they give you for your Civic, if you don't mind me asking? And it was a HCH right?

So one could say that the Dealer is (RIPPING-ME-OFF) with the $300.00 DOC Fee but I think if you read this Post Closely you will come to the same conclusion that I did and that is that this dealer bent over (BACKWARDS) to assist me in this purchase and yes they are making a (Reasonable-Profit) and I would not expect anything different.
Maybe I should have also in the other Post mentioned that the dealer would have gotten me a 06 HCH alot faster than Jan. 2006 but at my request I wanted to get the 2006 Tax-Credit so I asked them to delay the delivery until Jan. 2006 so I could take the Tax Credit advantage. If they (The-Dealer) did any more for me on this deal I think that I would be a Relative or something. If all dealers did business like this dealer I do-not think that we would be reading Post that speak of $2,000.00 to $5,000.00 Mark Ups over MSRP. As we all have read here there are members here that have Paid some very serious money to be 1st in line to take delivery of their 06 HCH's.
I will have to say for all to (READ) I am extremely (PLEASED) with this Dealer and would certainly recommend them to anyone.

Terry

I paid 23900 (NAVI) + 45 doc + 1975 tax + 218 license/reg. I also paid $995 for the 7/120 extended warranty (they origially wanted 2000 for it until I showed them a printout of a quote I got online - thanks to a post I found here!- and they matched it). Nothing else added.
What about the pricing on the Ext. Warranty? Could you bring us up to Date on the Pricing and I read on your post that there is a link I think that covers that? If you know the Link would you take a minute and Post the Link. I might just purchase it this go around, I think I will have this 06 HCH for Yrs. to come. You said it was quoted 1st for $2,000.00 and you actually paid $995.00 for the 7/120 coverage. Was that through Honda or a 3rd Party Ext. Warranty Company?
Thanks;

They have the 7 year/120k miles, $0 deductible EW for $995. I printed it out and took it with me when I picked up my car and told the dealer that I would buy it from them if they matched the price. They did. I saw other quotes online for the exact same EW as high as $1600. I expect that if you walked in off the street, most dealers would ask even more.

Thanks-so $25000 is about it-base.
Thanks.So as it stands it will cost someone about $25000-(cash deal) OTD to get a 2006 HCH base model in states with about 7-8% sales tax?You have to fight a bit just to get a straight MSRP deal.Thanks.Charlie

I found a dealer on Craigslist for $2,000 over MSRP for immediate delivery and one for MSRP, but they are another 1.5 hours away. Opal Silver was $2000 over and Silver was MSRP. I don't like the blue interior in the Silver though. Think I should jump on it? I tried to offer MSRP to them and they said they will not sell this for MSRP because it is available for immediate delivery. How much over do you think is reasonable?
