I've been pricing a new CRV EXL AWD, and can't get my local dealers to
offer more than a $600 or $700 discount. Sticker is $26,595.

Has anybody had better luck finding higher discounts? MrB

 

No, not in my experience. The CRV is just too popular to get much of a
discount. If you are in the Boston area, you might try Honda Barn
north of the city, they seemed willing to bargain a bit.

You might try something like the Costco auto discount program. A
couple years back it was a few hundred over invoice for a Civic. I
don't know if it works with popular models.

 

A local Honda dealer told me the Sam's Club program only promised $200
off ... but he could offer a whopping $595 discount on a $28,000 CRV.

That was about a week ago. I have since bought a Toyota, where the
discounted price was more acceptable. I got a bit irritated when the
Honda dealer kept bragging that he didn't need to offer any bigger
discount because of high demand. My business simply went elsewhere.
Honda seems to play this "tight supply" pricing game more than most
other dealers. Mr B
