Hi, guys
I'm ready to buy a new civic now. Before purchase, i'm just wondering whether it is a good time to buy ? For a new civic, if i buy the car now, the car will probably get delivered in Nov. It's less than two month till 2008! The car will be one year old after two month..... Considering the resale value, anyone has any suggestion? Thank you.
I'm biased as i'm still waiting for my new civic to arrive (in Nov). But as far as I understand.. the new civic won't have a facelift till 2009. So the 08 civic will be the same as the 07.
I'm not planning on selling the car in the next 2/3 years, so this doesn't concern me.
what's color of ur civic? I've heard BLACK needs even longer waiting time, is it true?
I think i may sale it in next 4 or 5 years.
I'm going to buy vti as well. May I know how much is yours?
Yes I've ordered it in NightHawk black.. i placed the order over a month ago. So my ETA is sometime in Nov.
If you are selling it in 4/5 years I don't think it'll effect the resale value too much. Personally I couldn't wait any longer for the car to come -this wait is driving me crazy.
I'm paying 26,900 for it.
I'm getting the interior trim set, accent lighting, reverse sensor parking and bassworks options. Oh and the exhaust pipe finisher. And its a Auto Vti.
I'm a little dissapointed with the price I ended up settling for. I should have pushed for around 25.5k and all those options as well.
Thanks. I'm thinking Sparkle Grey actually. Hope it's coming quicker....:)
No problem, good luck with your delivery time. Let us know when/if you've put the order in and how much your paying.
With all these options ard 25.5K ? possbile?
I don't know... he had to call his general manager to confirm he could do the 26.9k deal for me.. but I think I could have made his day alot harder and aimed closer for 26k.
I basically went into negotiation whith them whit the mindframe of: I'll pay 26.7k for the car, how many options can you chuck in? I didn't want their floor matts or tank of fuel rubish. So I had a list of options i was interested in.. as in interested in for them to give them to me.
I'm not sure if I got a good deal or not... but I reckon I could have made the salesman's day alot harder ;)
With no extras, and if your getting auto aim for about 24.5-25k
yea, something around 25-25.5k with no extra is quite reasonable. So what your paying is not too bad i think.
A toyota salesman told me according to some statistics, that only 7% of people buying new cars actually pay the RRP. Most poeple negotiate the price...
I'm ok with the price i got.. i'll survive. Once I get the car I don't think it'll bother me that I didn't get the best price.
Are you getting manual or auto?
Yea, u r right. Once get the car, just enjoy the driving. :)
Im looking for Auto, too.
