Honda Car Forum

I been in the market for a 2006 civic for last couple of weeks and
dealers in Boston area have been horrible. The car is selling like hot
cakes and so no one wants to budge. Anyways I thought it would be
useful to do a survey of approximate cost of Civics 2006 model .

Please include area, model (DX,LX,EX,hybrid), price without taxes and
documentation and extra options if any. Thanks all for the effort...

They're ALL over $20,000 in my area. SOME economy car!

You probably could have bought an Accord Hybid for that assuming you are in
the US.

I hear ya. There are two Honda dealers in my area. I walked into the first
one, asked the salesman for a price on a Civic and his reply was, and I
quote, "I'm not going to give you a price unless you are going to buy a
car." So, I walked out, drove to the other Honda dealer where the salesman
was more than happy to accommodate my simple request.

Did you know that Honda Canada will not honor warranty if I purchase a car
in the us and bring it up to Canada. I tried to do this and they just
flipped out.

I noticed prices started getting high about three years ago
when gasoline started going above $2.

Everyone introducing a new class of smaller cars,
including the Honda Fit. Its the size of Civic about
ten years ago. No data on reliability.
