A dealership in the Atlanta Georgia area has a championship white on their lot. MSRP + $5000 ADM + $1144 accessory package that they put on every car on their lot. Call Joe Headley at 404-784-1150 and tell him David sent you. I hear that the ADM is very negotiable so give it your best shot.

I bought a black FL5 for MSRP but the catch was I had to finance it. It came in just under $50K. The dealer said I can pay it off with no penalty so I plan on paying the car off on the first payment.

I looked at a blue FL5 the day before in Massillion, OH and they had a paper tag in the window next to the window sticker with a 10K markup. She said they would 'work' with me on it. I figured, nah, not going to pay a markup, so they lost out on a sale.

Thanks. I think upper management wants to see financing or at least a trade in on the books so they generate more money over MSRP. A cash sale is actually a disadvantage these days.

Hey! I lived in Plano! Town bluff and Parker. I miss it.

I have a lead on two CW FL5s at MSRP. I can almost guarantee this as I am in the process of buying one right now and the other two are in transit.

Back in 2K, bought an Odyssey EX at 99 invoice from Royal Honda. They even flatbed delivered it to SoCal at no charge. I know an ody is no type R but back then they were hot like an s2k. Boy, things have changed.

Hello! I’m new here, just created an account and looking for a CTR.

Anyone know of any west coast dealers that are charging msrp or near. I went back a few pages and all I see is East coast dealers lol. I think my budget is probably $1500 over since that’s what it would cost to buy out state and ship it?

Thanks!

Sonic Grey ‘24 CTR + Many Others
Purchased my ‘24 CTR last week from Pearson Honda in Richmond VA. They were asking $5000 over, which is similar to most dealers with CTR’s in stock on the East Coast.

It took a few days, but they ended up selling to me at MSRP. I reached out to several other dealers during the process, and most have followed up saying they may be able to get down to MSRP.

In short, be patient. Dealerships will sell at MSRP, it may just take a few days.
