Default Ummm what is wrong with my honda dealer....

I am not sure if this should be in members but I can not post in there yet (by the way I use to be on here as Halvie but got a different email addy and lost my password..is it possible to forgo this trial period so I can post everywhere again?)

But anywho on to the question. Why are the cars at my local honda dealer so damn high? Ex. 99 lude 40k miles. good body condition 29,995. 97 ek 96k miles decent body 12,000 grand. A new ep3 23k. Why the hell are the prices so high! I really dont want to have to drive out of state to get a car if I get a new one? By the way Iam talking about Wilde Honda in brookfield Wisconsin. Anybody in Wi know of a honda dealer with better prices?

Thanks
Troy

Buy a private owner car. Get a friend/mechanic who knows about hondas to inspect it in and out.

Those prices are a joke. If I was strolling through that dealer, I'd tell a salesperson my opinion.. Definitely go to another dealer..

find another dealership using the delear locator thing right in the midde of the page at http://www.hondacars.com

if you want a used Honda, dont buy from a Honda dealer because they always have it for a higher price. go to a different dealer's used car lot and buy it because they usually want to get rid of it.

If I were you I would just go down there and give them a lowball offer and slowly work up to the price you are willing to pay. You never know, they might really want to get rid of the car. But I would rather buy from a private seller.

I still thought I was a trial user because I can't post in most areas of the board. And no those prices are for stock cars. I saw a 93 cx (mind you Iam looking for a ek so I go looking around a lot) with 107k miles, rusted through quarter pannels, broken door handel, and a bunch of other things wrong with it for 6k. That really blew my mind. I really hate that place. I bought my eg from their and the sales person told me my engine was a 1.8ltr . That should have told me to go look somewhere else. STUPID ME
