hi all
i just purchased a 7th Gen Civic Sedan GLI everything standards but also i got cruise control fitted into it, the car has done just over 20100 kms and there is still Honda Warranty on the car,
the car has done its 10,000 and 20,000 service which checked in the owners manual, i also got an RACQ report which came up excellent,
the question is i paid $21,000 drive way price no more to pay,
did i get ripped or is that a fair price?
hmmm.... well its too late anyway. but its pretty much brand new. for an extra 3K you coulda gotten the latest shape. i wouldve waited out.
yea i was toying with that idea but if i went down that path it would have come to about $28k for a new Vti-L as i want the alloys, cruise control which the Vti-L has. Im talking here total price, drive away.
For $22,000 you could have got a manual VTi brand new, $24000 for an Auto. With crazy bargaining skills, $22000 for an auto if there was stock in Honda's holding yard.
yea but i am not interested in the VTI only the VTI L - automatic, so i was looking around $27-28k cause you gotta add on the 2% stamp duty + dealer delivery and all that bullsh!t.
Yeah, if you want the VTi-L, then it jacks the price up a bit. With good skills, you can get that stamp duty delivery BS covered by the dealer. I got my base Euro manual for $34000 driveaway. It's possible.Quote:

Yeah, ain't no way will you get a VTi-L auto for $21000, even after 1 year. So you just saved yourself mucho $$$ with the GLi :thumbsup:
yea thanks, well i do like the 8th gen civics but it loses points on the front, dont like the front, but i do like the backs of the 8th but in 5 yrs time i may trade this in anyway and get an 8th, let someone else carry the depreciation.
I helped my father-in-law buy a brand new 2005 7th gen Civic sedan GLi (exactly like yours) for $21,500 driveaway. Whereas your car already had over 20,000km on the odo...Quote:
