Default Best Dealership in Orange County, CA to purchase an 07 SI

Just like the topic says. Im looking for the best dealership to purchase an 07 Si from. It doesnt have to be in OC, but at least in a neighboring city. As far east as Ontario and as far West as L.A would be good. Sure as hell am not going to pay 28k for a Si with Navi. Your input is much appreciated.

I've had good experiences with Norm Reeves Honda in Cerritos, but that was several years ago. They are one of the biggest so they can probably give some of the best prices I'm guessing.

I got my 06 Si at buena park Honda with no mark ups, just sticker price, I live in Cerritos so it's pretty close to Norms Reeves, but never go to downy Honda, I fought with the manager there, I almost punched him(long story short) the manager there try to make a fool out of me in front of my dad, F$*kin pissed me off.

Nice, yeah i sent a few quotes out on the internet. I sent one to Norm Reeves in HB since im in Costa Mesa // Santa Ana. The guy called me and said they have a NHBP coming in real soon so i hope his numbers match up. If i can get it for sticker out the door with navi and some other bonus' then I'll take it. I will for sure check out Norm Reeves in Cerritos. Thanks for the input guys. Blue2kSi, where did you pick yours up? a hour or so drive is definitely worth saving a couple grand ya know? Bump for more good dealerships.

Thanks import girl. I shall do that. I really wish there was a Honda dealership affiliated with Longo Toyota. When i bought a Corolla last year for a DD they gave me the best price after hassling with 7 dealerships prior. Lowest price and the most extras. I'll send a quote there today. Thanks again. Bump for more dealerships.

*BumP* again for Import girl. Just got off the phone with Phil at Penske Honda in Ontario and hes searching for a NHBP Si w/ Navi for me. Also like import girl said that they dont mark up their cars. I would strongly suggest going with Penske or Longo for any of your Honda/Toyota/Mercedes purchases. I hope they find my car and the price is right. Thanks again.

Thanks, I hope so too. I love HT. Talk to alot of cool people and get a lot of good advice that can save you tons of money. If more people came on here they would soon realize they dont have to pay 28k + Tax/License for a Civic. I imagine that when they find the NHBP Si Im looking for there won't be much negotiating. Longo/Penske seems like a real no BS dealership. Now I just need to sell my EJ1

Anyone else have some good experiences with a certain dealership? Also, how much did you guys pay OTD for your Si and what was on it... ie fogs, splash guards, alarm etc?

What dealership? That is a good amount of extras for the price for sure. Does it have Navi? I know the MSRP is like 23600k on the 4dr and like 23300k on the 2dr.

Dropped by Power Honda in Costa Mesa (Harbor/Adams). They are a bunch of d!cks. Especially the parts department. I have never had any good experiences with any "Power" automotive group. They know less than i do about Honda's. Pretty sad. Anyhow still waiting on a quote from Penske, i will for sure "name my price" at Family once i receive a quote from Penske. Thanks again everyone. Keep the dealerships and the OTD pricing coming. Dont forget to list your extras.

Whatever you do, do not go to Santa Ana Honda. They are the sketchiest dealer ever and have the absolute worst service I have ever experienced. My 06 Si came from there. It had a major paint problem from the factory that they admitted to, but would not even agree to repair it in full- only to paint a few parts where the paint splotches were most obvious. I had to go through the better business bureau just to get them to do anything. Also, service completely sucks. Took my car in for an oil change and mysteriously came out with a broken foglight (installed only days before at the location). "Well, you can't prove we broke it," is what the service manager Johnny Marker said, despite admitting it wasn't broken when I took it in. I would sooner buy a Nissan than get anything done there ever again. Be smart. Beware of Santa Ana Honda!!!

I talked to the Honda in San Juan Capistrano about 8 months ago about a Civic Si Coupe, they said they didn't mark up their prices but there was a wait.

You guys give great info. Yeah i went to SA Honda to pick up some parts and ran into a buddy of mine i went to HS with in Fullerton. I figured since i knew him i could ask him what invoice was on a Si, he hesitated and proceeded to tell me it was 21200k. I could tell he was full of it. I like being able to car shop and post my experiences on this site. A lot of people are unaware of how bad they are getting shafted. As for now im just playing the waiting game. I sent my quotes out and have a few more to go. V3ritas, is the Honda in SJC the Family Honda? Thanks again for all the input guys.

You can always check out Norm Reeves Honda in Cerritos. Ask for a gentleman by the name of Tom Simons. He is our fleet manager and would be able to help you at the best. Be sure to let him know that Mike Kye referred you. Hopefully with that, he'll give you a better price. But do shop around, if you take some numbers to him, he will for sure try his best to beat the price. Also, being the largest volume Honda dealerhsip in the nation, we might be able to find what exactly you need.
