If you ask for a kiss, you might get that for free... otherwise expect to
pay MSRP or more.

Until the supply over runs the demand, I've seen a total of one on the
local dealer's floor in the last 12 months; there will be no negotiating
price on the Fit.

There is very little profit for the dealer in the MSRP, as it is. Your
best bet is to walk into the dealer with cash in hand, and don't be picky
about the color.

No Lawsuit Ever Fixed A Moron...

Wait until supply catches up with demand. Or buy your second choice car.

I'm in the market to purchase/finance a 2007 Honda Fit Sport, manual
transmission, in red. Since filling out a questionnaire on an
automobile web site the other week, I've received emails from a number
of Honda dealers within an hour's drive of me. I've been in email
correspondence with these dealers to check on pricing and
availability.

I'm getting similar responses from all dealers regarding availability
(none in stock, difficult to obtain, should be able to get one within
a few weeks) and pricing (basically, MSRP).

All of the dealers are commenting that there are no specials or
discounts on this particular model. Is that really the case?

I wouldn't consider negotiating to be one of my strengths. Should I
assume that the similar pricing I'm getting from all of the dealers is
what I should expect to pay? Or are these prices negotiable?

If not a lower price, I figured I would try to negotiate some
accessories (all-season floor mats, cargo cover, cargo tray, full nose
mark, and rear bumper appliqué). Is even that a reasonable tactic for
this model vehicle?

Thanks!
