What did you pay for your FL5?

[ELIAS64]

5k adm is a decent find. I guess it's closer to 7k with add-on and fee but under the 10k norm

Agreed!

Hoehn Honda in San Diego has 2 Type R's in the showroom right now at $15K ADM plus about $1600 in "protection". Boost Blue and CW, I offered $5K over and they politely told me to go screw myself.

I've reached out to them within the past month and I already knew I didn't want to deal with them from their first email reply. I wasn't going to deal with their attitude.

I had a sales guy from Mossy Honda in Lemon Grove get mad when I turned down his 20k adm.. so mad that he said I would never find a type r below 60k and started sending me links to CarGurus of FK8s/FL5s...maybe I should text him back with a picture of my deal sheet for my incoming FL5

I haven't had any luck with SD/LA dealers. Almost all of them are vomiting their sales spiel to me about the specs and rarity of the car. I literally had a reply of "all of the money!" when asking for their FL5 pricing.

I don't need a sales pitch, spec sheet, or info dump about the car. We all know what we want and the price that we're willing to pay. I've never clicked the Block Sender/Report Spam button so quickly when dealing with these dealerships.

my FL5 is officially in transport to me from my selling dealer so I wanted to post my numbers and give some hope to other prospective buyers still searching for theirs.

Total price before TTL was $51,237
MSRP - $44390
ADM - $0 (They made some back end money on the accessories)
Total Accessories - $7347 (Includes paint protection package,all weather mats, cargo tray, wheel locks, CF spoiler, car cover, shift knob, window tint, and the original shift knob and spoiler for the car)
Military Discount - $500 from Honda Financial
Transport from TX to CA - $1600 (Enclosed trailer, non-broker company that operates their own trucks)

All the local dealers in SoCal have been asking 15-20k adm's, so I saved quite a bit buying out of state.

Not a bad deal at all in this market. You basically paid ~5k ADM (but you got actual stuff instead of straight markup) + Cost of CF wing. Congrats!

great deal! What dealer?

Round Rock Honda in Texas. My salesperson was Chris H.

They just got a CW in about 2 weeks for 53k +TTL (No CF Spoiler or shift knob) and my understanding is Chris sold it last Saturday so I'm not sure what the final numbers came out to.

Does anyone have the current finance rates from Honda financial for the Civic Type R. 48, 60, and 72 months.

It won't be anything good. Go with a local credit union, I just got 3.49% a few weeks ago

 

[EnnioTypeR]

Only reason i ask is, dealer agreed to $699 a month for 72 months on April 1st. Go to pick my car up today to do the paperwork and they were at $748 for 72 months. Finance manager said this was due to rising interest rates. If I knew this was the case I would’ve went with a different lender.

They have to show you the rate by law that you are agreeing to, what was it? You can always refinance even though it's a bit of a hassle. $50 x 70mo is a lot more interest though, yikes.

Honda doesn't have an incentive loan rate on the CTR so I don't think you can get the typical 2.9/3.9/4.9 stuff. I was offered 7.1% by the dealer (I didn't inquire as to the sourcing bank), BoA gave 5.49% on 60mo loan and the local CU was 5.39% so not worth signing up to me.

 

[EnnioTypeR]

When I agreed to the $699 on April 1, honda was financing at 5.9. I picked up my car yesterday and they were using Saratoga national bank at 7.49. If I didn’t just drive 2 and a half hours to go get the car, I would’ve cancelled the deal

Yeah Honda Financing isn't at 5.9 anymore, I learned that picking up the car this past Friday. Unless you signed paperwork and got the financing on April 1st, which is impossible if they did not have possession of the car, you're subject to whatever the rates are. I'd recommend just refinancing after 3 months or attempt to pay down the loan quicker.

Why wait 3 months unless Honda Financial Services has a prepayment penalty within the first 90 days of the loan closing. If possible, I would look to refi ASAP before rates move higher.
