Default Civic Hybrid Below MSRP?

Is anyplace selling the Honda Civic Hybrid below MSRP? In my area they are going for $2,000 over MSRP and I just won't pay that. I even have a problem paying MSRP but am willing to for this car. California sucks for buying a vehicle! The dealerships here gouge us every chance they get.

Since dealerships are not dealing, I put my order in for a new Prius at $1000 off MSRP, plus I will get the $3150 tax credit.

Only if you get it this month as they've sold their quota for the tax credit, though I think you should be able to get a Prius within a couple of weeks. The dealerships here still will take as many HCH's as they can get last I checked.

Yeah, it's impossible to get a HCH for MSRP in California right now. I contacted several dealers a month ago and all of them were asking about $2000 above MSRP.

I was able to grab one with Nav right off the local dealers' lot for $500 below sticker. Plus, they gave me Kelly BB clean wholesale for my 2004 Insight trade. They added a full front mask for cost, too.

At this stage they're probably catching up a bit on demand. All of the new Civics have been fairly hard to find for quite awhile now. And, no wonder, it's a remarkable car.

The local dealers tell me they are still selling them just about as fast as they can get them, but they seem to be sitting on the front line for a couple days now before they dissapear.

There are a few on the ground here in Wichita at the local Honda dealership. Both my father-in-law and mother have purchased HCHs from them at below sticker price. Last time I checked they actually had a Silver with NAV

*droll*
