Civic 06 prices .. anyone already put a deposit or buy one?

I found that the dealerships weren't really offering much in discounts off the RRP (ie. none at all) but were willing to throw in extras.. one offered free mats and some other pointless thing (forgot what it was), but I preferred the roadside assist one- I plan to just buy my own mats or something from Kmart or something.

For the met, I prefer to get the original honda civic carpet. Really high-quality.....:thumbsup:

I'm starting to regret not getting the carpet mat... but then, I'm pretty sure I can find some decent ones elsewhere- anyone know good places? The dealer wanted to charge me $200 I think for the mats and I'm like... no thanks.

yeh it feels and sounds wrong to pay that much for mats but you have to admit you buy it once and never have to worry again...........

with aftermarket mats it'll never be the same............but I'm sure you have find something that work well enough.

hahahha serious..........

Hmm... i'm still not sure if i should spend $150 on mats, when my dad said you can get pretty decent sets for under $50. Atm saving my money up for the amp + subwoofer... A bit off topic, but are there any Honda experts here who could provide me with details on the Civic 2006 sound system? as in.. the specs, preamp output details, existing speaker specs, etc..?

I totally agree with mk14eva. I used to have a civic for 3 years. I bought the mat as an extra from the dealer. After 3 years, the mat had not even worn out yet, even the seats are a little bit worn. Now with my euro, I also had them as an extra, it is an excellent condition. If i really clean it, and sell it as a brand new, no one will know that it is used. I dont think it matter much to the dealers just to thrown on a mat set on the car, coz it probably only cost them no more than $100

are you sure you got it for that much dude? maybe it was some sort of special because you got it at a car show? I really dont think anyone could get 2000 dollars off the recommended price?

ok so $150 for the mats, but when you look at the price of the car its only a fraction of the cost. have you seen what happens to the floor over time without them? also im incredibly impressed with the mats in the car. the fits 100% and they almost valcro the way they grip and dont move around. worth going the oem IMO. but you sould get them thrown in as part of the deal;)
