Are you kidding!!! :shock: I went to the honda dealership in Kennewick, WA. and they had a $3900. mark up on top of the MSRP and this was not including taxes, title and all the crap they add on. It was labeled as a "ADMIN. charge" What??? Have anyone heard of this :evil:
kam...
p.s. I walked righted out without passing GO. And now I am picking up one for $1500. over invoice. :lol: :P :D |

| I love the Ridgeline, and am considering purchasing one myself, but considering the fact that they are selling like lead bricks on a life raft, dealers should be selling them at or near invoice. Most dealerships here have 10+ sitting on the lot. One dealership even has over 20 of them. With that kind of inventory, dealers have no reason to expect anywhere close to retail, let alone $4000.00 OVER!! |

| Unfortunately, it is common in smaller, uncompetitive markets. As a sales manager at a honda dealership doing dealer trades with many other dealers, "market adjustments" show up on many of them, including the one I purchased. Don't think for a second that any of these dealers are getting the $$. I know we not only didn't get it, but we couldn't even ask for it, since our corporate office doesn't allow for them. It is used more as a negotiating tool. |

| Come to the southeast (Georgia/Alabama) and buy one! I did not pay anywhere near invoice for mine loaded with nav,leather,moonroof. Matter of fact even with tax it was well below invoice. And I have had mine for almost 3 months. :D |

Do mean msrp, or did you really get yours well below invoice including the accs and tax? If so, you got one hell of a great deal. Congrats! You should get the negotiator of the year award. 8) |

They have the RTS listed for slightly under invoice including dealer prep and delivery fees here in NY.
If you look around you can find it for invoice.
I am going to wait a liitle to see if the price on the Rts comes down or they offer some incentives. I think the price of the RTS should sell for the RT price. |

| I bought my RTS in Southern CA for $26,688. Including wheel locks and 4 mud flaps. I think that's a good deal |
