    I have been researching for the new Civic too, I think most people can easily get 10-20% off RRP if you don't use their finance.
    In Melbourne The RRP for the RS is $35435, they offered $33500, which is only around 5% off.
    Probably try again at nearly the end of the month.
    And other things this guy mentioned in the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8VYNFzmJIQ&t=693s
    The Civic hatch is coming out too, dealers may want to clear some Sedan to make room for the hatch??

    $32,500 from what the guys in Whirlpool got their car for. I got my VTI-LX for $34,300 DA with 5 years warranty (10% off RRP here in NSW via fleet pricing).

      Nice good job, the sales people just rang me, he said he can do deal for 33k + door garnish + illuminating light + full pertrol + carpet + Cargo tray

      I said I will think about it and get back to him

        Looks a good price, go for it.

    From my own and friend's experiences, we always try to get about 9-11% off the sticker with all the usual goodies included.

    • W0rldtraveller on 03/04/2017 - 16:42

      So at moment RRP is $35507

      11% off will be $31956.3

      is it what u saying? So 33k is bad price?

      • chobani4lyf on 03/04/2017 - 19:49

        Those percentages are just a rough guideline of what is generally achievable and varies with different cars (demand). 33k is definitely not a bad price, but at the same time not a killer deal either.

    Try a different dealer and see what sort of pricing do you get. I would be aiming for 8-15% of the RRP (excluding on road charges). Maybe even wait until the later half of this month to see if the dealers lower their price as they might not be meeting their sales quotas for the month.

      Tried most dealer drop it 1 k from RRP , Scott honda

      • nafe on 04/04/2017 - 12:54

        Back in the day Scotts were known as not being very good for negotiating prices.

        • W0rldtraveller on 04/04/2017 - 12:58

          should try in the roseberry?

        • nafe on 04/04/2017 - 13:04

          @W0rldtraveller:

          If you've tried most of the dealers, you should have a pretty good idea of what they are offering on price. End of the day, you have a budget, so it's up to you if the price matches what you want to spend. None of us are going to drive the car, and you'll always find someone who manages to get one cheaper somewhere, somehow.

          @nafe: Very true

  • Major Packer on 04/04/2017 - 08:17

    If I were you I would wait tile after the last weekend of the month (assuming most sales are made during the weekend and the last weekend would be their last chance to meet the sales target). Call a few dealers and ask for a bettrr offer.
