Wow. That's nuts.

How much are the non-navs going for?

Still have to find one.

Here is thought for you before you purchase anything.

The New Accords are coming into dealers this fall. It might be worth holding up and see if Honda does a Hybrid Accord with the 4-Cyclinder in it this go around. If they do you can bet it will be a 1st class job.

Just a thought.

BTW, that is not many months to wait.

I think that'd be a great car, unfortunately I have heard Honda quotes that say they think their hybrid system works well in smaller cars (HCH, dedicated small hybrid, sports car hybrid) and they will focus on clean diesels for the larger cars (Accord, all the trucks and suvs).

That is amazing.

I don't even know how to start bargaining to end up at under invoice.

School me please.

Here is one way to do it without a lot of talking on your part.

Get the member that got that "Great-Below-Invoice-Price" to E-Mail you a copy of the purchase. You can then simply say to which ever dealer you talk to will you match this "Deal" ????

They cannot really say you are crazy No-Dealer would do that because you have the price right in front of them.

Also you might have more luck at doing one of these two things.

(1) Deal with the Internet Manager:

(2) Talk only with the Sales Manager (Leaves sells person out) Price only:

I was in sales for a very long time. Not car sales but the game is almost the same.

BTW, The other person can cover up any personal info. that he does not want anyone to see. All you need is something on hard copy that shows prices.

Sorry Terry;

Honda already stated that the current HAH will be the last one for quite a while (I wish it was not so). The only non-petrol next gen Accord that we will see will have a Diesel engine in it.

All remaining Honda hybrids will be compacts and smaller.

Cheers;

I wonder if many people know that. I think not because most of the people I have spoken to think Honda is coming with a 4-cyclinder Hybrid in this new model.

There will be some very disappointed people once every one gets the word on No-HAH.

Thanks for the Heads-Up.

My local Honda Dealer has a New 2006 HAH with Nav. and gave me a price way under his cost if I was interested.
