What did you pay for your FL5?

[daazn]

This may not be the right thread for this...

Out of curiosity, for those of you who financed your Type R purchase, what kind of interest rates did you get with excellent credit (>780)? Did you use a traditional big bank or credit union? Honda Financial Services? If you used HFS, what rate did you get?

My rate is 2.74% back in March for 36 months from a local CU

5.49% for 60 months from Honda financial early this month. I did have to show them my pre-approval from my CU and they matched it.

Just last night I walked out of the dealership with my new Boost Blue baby. I managed only a $4k mark-up and no dealer add-ons. It took weeks to get them down from their original 15k mark-up. This was at Freeway Honda of Santa Ana in CA.

Would not recommend working with them unless you're fine dealing with sales staff that talks down to you and a front desk manager that has the nerve to say things like, "If you find one Anywhere close to MSRP, I'll even cosign." Insinuating that just because I look young I couldn't sign on my own. After about a month from initial walk-in, I went back last night to which he quickly changed his tone given the deal I had worked out from their original mark-up, and acted astonished by my credit score and that I very clearly could manage on my own. He also stated, "You got a killer deal. Just make sure you don't go telling anyone else okay."

Anyways, the dealership is out of the picture now and I think I made out like a bandit being in So Cal so I am extremely happy.

SoulsKind gave me the details and contacts of the folks he worked with at Freeway since I've been shopping for a CW CTR and they happened to have one in stock.

Per his post, they are rather difficult to deal with. They are firm on 10k over for the CW CTR even though SoCal dealers are starting to offering $7500-8000 even with a BB one also selling for $6500 at Lancaster Honda. They told me they had a customer begging them to sell at $8500 daily which kind of blows my mind because I have 2 email quotes for 8k over at other SoCal dealers for CW. Anyways, The SoCal market is starting to soften a bit more. 10k was the going price around March-June. It seems like deals are being had for $7500 in July.

Had you been on the list previously? I got on the wait list but it was like 30 people deep since they were doing MSRP.

That is awesome though, congrats! Maybe I will see you around.

Yeah I've been on the list since Aug of last year. It was actually a shock when they called me up and said they pulled my name for the car. I basically forgot about it lol!

It was the boost blue with 40 miles on it right? They were selling it as “used”. I spoke with them extensively about it, almost pulled the trigger but blue wasn’t for me. I’m a sonic gray pearl kinda guy. Hope you’re enjoying it!

No actually! That used one was the first one I saw. That one sold before I stopped back in and worked the deal for the one that was on the showroom floor. Had 17 miles on it when I drove off the lot.

That was me trying to get the car for 8.5k. The reason this was, is because it was just off the truck without any added accessories. I needed it the badge number above 10050 at least. Other Honda dealership were offering 7k over but they already has crap added like alarm and gps tracking, pro pack. Some places even drilled alarms into the car… smh. What other places in OC have you received the 8k offer? Just want to make sure my requirements are met
