This has been asked before, but not lately....
Can anyone recommend a good dealer in Central Florida? I'm interested in a AWD, EX-P auto....although I might opt out of the "-P".

Is it possible to get invoice or below these days?

I bought my 06 EX-P at Holler Honda on 17-92 in Winter Park (Orlando) and was pleased with the experience over all. My only complaint was that I had taken care of financing on my own before I got there and we were done with the deal early and I had to wait like 90 mins for them to detail my E and put on the roof racks. I know that is not a terrible issue, I was just really excited to drive away in my new E!!!

I did pay invoice for mine and with a few little lies :cool: got them to throw in the splash guards, wheel locks and roof rack for free. My sales guy was Jerry Shea. He seemed nice (for a car salesman anyway :shock: ) He did not try to "pressure" me and was patient. I test drove an E twice about 2 weeks apart to make sure that I wanted one. I would recomend them overall.

Hope this helps!

Somehow I thought that this dealer was the most pricey of the bunch... come to think of it, I think I checked prices at that dealership the month that the first Elements came out...and it was over retail!

I'll check their selection today.

Thanks. Perhaps I'll seek your saleman out and ask for the same deal just to avoid dickering!

You should NEVER pay retail or MSRP for a car. There is a thing called dealer holdbacks which basically is built in money when they bought the car from Honda. They already have some profit built in. Check web sites like edmunds.com for the invoice price of the E you want. Shop around and tell them that you have someone that will sell you the car for invoice, they will most likely match you, I also had them throw in some extras like I mentioned before. Get quotes from other dealers, print out everything an bring it with you, print the invoice price from Edmunds, don't "show" it to them but let them see it. If nothing else, it lets them know that they can't screw with you too much. If you can, get a loan that you want for an amount that you like before you go. They will not walk away from a reasonable offer that is right in front of them.

Check with Wade Raulerson in Gainesville,,,,small dealership with great service and customer relations. I did my whole deal over the net and had finance in hand....in and out in less than 30 mins.....They also do not have any dealer fees. Its worth the ride..

In Orlando play them all against each other... Also ty to get the new sales person... he will be just looking for a sale... Remembe you name the price make them go to manager at least 3 times... they will come to you when you walk away... I sold cars in Orlando I know how it works... Just name your price and what you want... Coggin used to be ok.. same with Holler.. they are loking to sell... Just dont get weak on me... hold your ground on what you want to pay...

I cannot recall the name of the dealership, but it is in Lake Mary, off of RT4. It is near BJ's/Sam's Club. I was very happy with the purchase side as well as the service side.

I got the best deal at Classic by playing them all against each other. But their service dept. SUCKS! I go to Coggin on OBT. Free Food, Movies and Massages. While you wait...
