PRICE WATCH. Best deals on the new 2008 Jazz.

Good point! Tofu, so are u plan to buy one in near future? what model u looking at

[Tofu]

yeah I am definitely considering one.
But seeing how my circumstances lay out, I may need a larger car, maybe the 08 euro

[dyljoy]

ya, just see how's going, it is not a good timing to buy when they just freshly release.

Can someone shed some light on why the highest model Jazz doesn't even come with Side Airbags or curtain airbags ? At 26K I would expect it should.

Compare that to the states and for there $14K they get a fully loaded Jazz with better features we don't get.

It's a pretty poor effort by Honda me thinks, especially consdering the money they save importing ours from Thailand.

I think gli is the only model that gets the SP option. Cause on the new jazz catalog it doesnt have it as a option for the vti and vti-s.

95331140: Vti-s does not have a leather steering wheel and foggies are option. I asked if i could get a leather steering wheel on the vti as an option but they told me they never made it for Australia.... how sad... I guess u can always get it imported from japan!!!

[95331140]

So now for the same money, we're loosing the leather steering wheel, foggies and rear spoiler.

I'm not quite in the market for a replacement jazz as yet, but these few omissions should give buyers some bargaining amunition!

got quoted 27k for a fully loaded VTiS at Ricks.... damn think its a bit much for me.

I purchased a base-model GLi manual last Saturday for the full RRP with mats and metallic paint thrown in for free and half-price tinted windows. Initially I got promised more by the dealer, but when it came to signing the contract, the big mean boss said no. There is not much choice for model/colour at the moment and it's really hard to get a bargain. It's hard to bundle it with additional gear and make a deal when they don't have photos of accessories.
BTW. it goes soooo much better than the old Jazz and new GLI feels like the old VTi power-wise. Can't wait to get my delivered in about 10 days.

I "heard" a rumour that there will be additional savings coming up, the stamp duty will be trimmed slightly for all cars that are outputting "low emmision's", and it is almost certain that the Jazz will qualify for this, dont know if its only ACT or country wide.

Heard it will trim the price by roughly $500. The announcement is happening early September.

Dont shoot the messenger!!!!

Awesome! That'll help. I dont know if this means anything, but when i went to my local honda dealer, my dad knows a guy there and he showed us the initial pricing memo from honda head office, and it mentioned on it, that the dealer margins on the new jazz remain the same as the outgoing model. Looking at it at face value, shouldnt that mean that when it is released officially and dealers can have a little more leeway, that you could haggle them down a lot lower than what we've been seeing so far?

wtf u on about? we are talking about the new model, not the old one. Use the search function to find out that gli sp and vti and vtis all have side and curtian bags.
