Picking up HONDA soon What to look out for??

[Jordan]

What?? So even if you wanted these things you couldn’t get them??? That’s crazy!! If your willing to pay the cash.

Um can’t remember 100% but I think the car all up cost us around the $30,500 mark. The option with the leather were pretty cool, like colour of the leather, also we could choose the stitching colour and also have CIVIC for example stitched on to the front seats.

Dunno about the leather, but sunroof would be an aftermarket Hollandia 700 one. Costs about $2,500 from memory.

um why are you spending 30K for a VTI when a Sport is 30k

[chickenisme]

Here are the prices of the civic vti models:
Manual Auto
VTI 21490 23490
+delivery&rego 2600 2600
stamp duty 480 520
Driveaway 24570 26610

VTI-L 24990 26990
+delievery&rego 2600 2600
stamp duty 550 590
Driveaway 28140 30180

VTI-SPORT 30490 32490
+delievery&rego 2600 2600
stamp duty 660 700
Driveaway 33750 35790

As you can see it would be quite easy to buy a VTI auto for close to 30000 with a few extras when paying standard dealer price.

YES spot on chickenisme.

Look were still not 100% on getting the leather which will put the price well under 30K which is what were willing to pay. She really wanted a roof so we just added it. Down the track i'll get some nice 17' or 18" rims and BAM

[rhk]

how much did the sunroof cost you and are they able to install it after the car is landed?

Hm... i thought u sed that your fiance about to "pick up" the car (which I thought it means that the car is about to be delivered by the dealer)... anyway, So the only difference with the sport is that the Sports has:
1. 6 CD stacker
2. More airbags
3. 2.0L engine

and to get these three we need to pay $5k more? =S

We are waiting for the car to land. With VTI’s The roof and leather have not been done from factory. The roof and leather will be done in Australia. We have advised the after sale lady what color and stitching we want but she is waiting for my fiancé to confirm 100% we wont it.

I don't see why not, from the dealer I think it was around the $2,400. You may be able to get it cheaper elsewhere though.

[chickenisme]

The sport has:

1. 6 CD stacker
2. Even More airbags
3. 2.0L engine
4. Sun Roof
5. Leather Trim
6. 7 spoke alloy wheels

VTI-L has:
1. 6 CD stacker
2. 5 spoke alloy wheels
3. more airbags

I am sure I have forgotten some things but my point is the sunroof is include with the sport model.

So when the VTI 06 was released you could'nt get any of these options???
