It also contains recycled Honda parts!

Well I am very impressed. I suspect I will be seeing some of these on the road in the near future.

No need to drop $25K...at lest not where i live. I have found that just because the HCH is in high demand, that deals are still to be had. Here is what I have done.

Started with using the Costco Auto buyer program (Sams CLub has a similar prgram I hear) and the dealer knocked off $250 from the MSRP. Then I got the bottom line figure (Including Destination fee, Tax, Title, Registration, Document fee's), what I call the "I give you a check for this and you give me the car" figure. Was promised if anyone beat that figure, that Costco would beat by 1% (~$200)

Took the bottomline figure above and sent our quote requests to other dealers in my area (I live in a major metro area so have lots of dealers within an hour's drive)

Got two dealers who said they would match. One dealer actually beat the Costco dealer by $500.

Right now I am looking at a quote for $23615 and another for ~$23115. If the Costco chossen dealer matches the lower quote, I will ink the deal and relax till January, when I requested the car be deleivered.
