Yeah thats what i've heard as well. Due to the decreasing sales, apparently honda intends to up the price of its models to increase the profit margin of each sale.

The price you were offered is definitely not worth it. We got our CU2 lux auto satnav, boot tray, tints, ducktail, colour coded mudflaps all for 45k on-road about 2 months ago. I think you should wait and see. Its just the begining of 09, perhaps honda may adjust its pricing once more...you never know.
