How much did you paid for your 2009/2010 Accord Euro

**Fredoops** · 03-06-2011 11:22 PM

Even more so I reckon, since they had to get rid of the runout stock before they introduce the facelift.

Base model manual Euro is now under $30k base price..... sign of the times.
Considering the price of (Premium) petrol... and the fact CU2 hits 10L/100k or more in city driving....

For those interested we did not reach the negotiation stage because there were a few unexpected developments. The price of the vehicle on Tuesday did not further reduce following Friday's announcement by Honda and I expected that it would have, in fact the price increased by a few dollars to meet the new Australian recommended retail so the original reduction in price due to it being a 2010 build was gone. There may be further developments tomorrow and I'll post the outcome. I do not wish to identify the dealer.

I've been looking at CL9's, but have seen a few CU9's that aren't that much more.

Two cars I'm looking at are both 2008 model, ~60,000 km's and manual. One base model, one luxury. What do you think is a reasonable price? They are advertised for $24k and $25k respectively. I was thinking $20k and $22k respectively. Thoughts?

I've had a bit of a search around and apart from the pinging, is there much to look out for?

I assume both the 2008 models are CL9 s.
Check them out,they are basically bullet proof,and let us know what your thoughts are...

CU9 - fairly sharply priced. I went and drove them yesterday, quite a lot nicer as a cruiser than the CL9 I thought. Manual gearbox was actually brilliant (I didn't have high expectations).

You mean CU2 and CL9 right?

Definitely get the CU2 if there's only a 1k difference between the two.

**Bakks** · 31-07-2011 12:58 PM

Sorry mate, yep - CU2! Not some CU2 / CL9 hybrid

Both are CU2. I was looking at CL9's in the high teen's / low 20's, but it seems the CU2's are now mid 20's and they seem a bit better value. I like the Luxury version but I HATED the poor quality leather on the CL9 - all of those I looked at were worn quite badly, but the CU2 leather seems to hold up a lot better.

22K for a Lux is good. Get that over the base model, manual is quite hard to find in the luxury variant as well.

For a CU2,those asking prices are radicilously LOW,GO FOR IT.

Usually when cars are selling below Red Book Value it is for a reason, ask yourself if there is a serious accident history or flood damage. When something sounds too good to be true it usually is.

Of course - but when buying from a dealer if they have the car on the lot for a while they are usually keen to move it. I understand their stock is leased so there is a cost involved in it sitting there. None the less I think my lowball offer might be a bit too low...
