I am thinking about buying one of these cars.  What is the actual dealer's
cost with no add-ons?  How much can I expect to pay on a cash deal (no
trade-in)?  Are there any buying tips you can share that will help me make
the best deal possible?  Thanks.

www.kbb.com and www.edmunds.com

I would contact dealer thru their internet site first and get their price.
Wait a few days to see if it goes down in a second email.

Click this URL, then the TMV pricing report.  It's for Edmunds web
site, and it should give you everything you need.

Given your zip code, the site will send a request for quotes to
dealers in your area.

Check Edmunds for the TMV price -- price most people are paying in your
area.

Good rule of thumb is get the salesdick's best price and offer him $500
less.

Your best bet is to e-mail every dealer around asking for their best price
for the car that you want.  Then play one against the other for a couple of
days.  Then go see the one that gave you the best price, w/ your e-mail from
them w/ the price that they quoted.  Keep your colors open and you will be
able to get a better deal.  Some areas have an abundance of one or two
colors and they price them lower than other colors.

I just bought an EX 4DR w/ cargo net for $ 18,200.  Way below what the TMV
is reported as on Edmonds.com.  Right after the sale closed, they noticed
that it also had fog lights & a day/night mirror.  So I guess you could say
I got it for a steal.  Another dealer that I was dealing with dropped their
price for the same options in a different color to $18,163 but I didn't
think it was worth $ 17 to leave one dealer and start the whole process over
at another dealer after spending 3 hours at the first one.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
