Re: How much did you pay for your hybrid civic?
I love answering this question. I got my 2005 HCH CVT in Manassas, VA for $18,050 in June 2005. With all taxes and fees, it came to a tad under 19k. There were 3 miles on the odometer. I still love my car.

Hey fellow Missourian...I am in St. Louis and couldnt get less than MSRP in St. Louis or KC. Ended up getting $600 under and trade in over KBB in Lawrence, KS, just down the road. Left STL in the morning, had my car by 2 pm, Gates BBQ for dinner and home by bedtime. All in all a great day!

I got my 2006 HCH2 $1000 under MSRP, no extras, no nav, January 3 2006 in Bishop California.
I had to drive from Los Angeles, 300 miles away, to get that price.
My salesman was Keith McCue at Perry Motors - great guy!
I bought my 2004 HCH for $2000 under MSRP April 2004, just before gas prices shot up.

HCH 2005 I used AAA in order to buy. I paid 500 over invoice on 08/2005. There were only 2 dealerships in all of Southern CA that had the HCH on discount. The lowest I was able to get negotiations prior to AAA was 500 over what I paid (1000 over invoice). After using AAA and all of its buyer protections I'll never haggle over a price without them again.

ENP 83,
They charged me for the accessories & installation. They offered $600 off the package (Car + acc. + installation). I told them if they took another $300 off they had a deal. Doc. fee was $50. 00.

I got my 06 hch II for $23900+tax and license. Magnetic Pearl with Navi. Mudguards and Wheel locks included. I got it in early December. Dealership was located in socal (Temecula) Check this out...I went back 2 weeks later to the same dealer to look at the bass system and noticed that all the hybrids were marked $2000 above msrp. I asked a salesperson why they were marked up because earlier that month my salesperson said they will not be marking them up and he said because they cars are a hot commodity and we know we can get it at this price. I told him funny I bought my 2 weeks ago with navi and magnetic pearl for msrp. He just looked at me and left.

Re: How much did you pay for your hybrid civic?
For my '05 HCH CVT I paid $19,100 last August. No haggling- I walked in with a price from online (through carquotes.com and my credit union) that I knew I was willing to pay, and they accepted the quote as binding. With tax, title, license, fees, plus floormats and a six-disc CD changer, it was twenty one thousand-something. I couldn't break it down any more specifically than that. Well, maybe a bit- the CD player was $580 or so, if I remember right.

If it's the later, the dealership manager must be your next door neighbor.
When people quote their prices in this thread they SHOULD include anykind of dealer fees they paid, such as a documentation charge, "dealership fee", "title" charges (unless it's a state fee), prep charge, ect (bs charge, additional overcharge, mark up, "rust-proofing")
BTW, wtf is Honda thinking trying to charge $319 for fog lights?
