where? I cant find a dealer in cali that wont do less than 3k over
I can tell where not... California :-(

got mine from Airport Marina Honda in Los Angeles for 2K over, which was an excellent one-time deal.

$3k over (w/o any dealer installed crap) is a very good deal in SoCal, as the next best offer I had was $5k over.

I was able to find MSRP in South Carolina, and was about to put down a $500 non-refundable deposit when Airport Marina contacted me. apparently they had two sitting in the lot, and needed to sell one to get their next allocation. one of them was the color I wanted SGP.

Transporting from SC, buying it sight unseen, risking damage during transport, and dealing with CA smog and licensing, would have added about $1,500 and time that I do not have. so I jumped on the $2k over offer, and bought it within hours.

April 9, BBP FL5 for $48,180 minus $33,180 for my traded 2021 BBP FK8, so $15,000 OTD.
The 15K was my first counter offer. They took it which probably means my offer was too high. Oh, well.
No sales tax in my state, so that was the total.

Picked up my car last month. 2023 CTR with 12k miles for 42k. The previous owner had installed aftermarket steering wheel and shift knob (the originals were in boxes in the hatch). They also had installed full front STEK PPF, including on the windshield. I did get the Alcantara accessory wheel from Honda and had it installed.

Just picked one up 53k OTD

49800 Vehicle Price, came with Alcantara steering wheel, leather shift knob, two sets of floor mats(red and black), cargo mat, window visors, and illuminated door sill.

Weirdly enough the dealer fee, usually $299-799 from what I have seen, was in the vehicle price as well as those random small misc fees that add up to ~$150ish.

Where did you get the CTR? And did you haggle for it? I had a similar otd without add-ons before I haggled

Arkansas and yes I haggled, first quote was 54.5 OTD. But it was like ten minutes of actual phone talk time and one day of waiting type of haggling. I flew in and drove the type R home.

And since I like transparency of data. I put 25k Down financed 29k(Paid 1k for wheel and tire protection) at 7% for 72 months but will pay it off in seven months.

Seems like I never put my numbers on here.

~$48,000 OTD, championship white from Saratoga Honda in New York State. I had a trade in too and got $900 off MSRP after haggling pretty aggressively between 2 dealerships.
