Looks like rfantonio discovered the prices. I'm creating its own thread. Time to celebrate (if you like the prices). All credit to rfantonio.

That's the way I read it even from the fb link Bice posted. So really everything will be over 20k.these prices do not include Destination Charge of $880. (from what I read on AutoBlog)
Right. I saw that. Still under 20,000 with the destination charge. Much better than starting at 20,000 and then adding destination. Tax will take it over the top of course, but this is still better than I expected. Getting more interested again.That's the way I read it even from the fb link Bice posted.

That's only one version that will be under $20k with that charge, and barely under. Sure when Honda said it would start under $20, should have known it wouldn't be by much, just only to get the attention of people.Right. I saw that. Still under 20,000 with the destination charge.

I see what you mean for people who will be buying the higher levels. This is disappointing.That's only one version that will be under $20k with that charge, and barely under.

Leon.Not far from what I predicted a month ago....
HRV 2WD LX Manual - $19,147.50
HRV 2WD LX w/CVT - $19,947.50
HRV AWD LX w/CVT - $21,197.50
HRV 2WD EX Manual - $21,152.50
HRV 2WD EX w/CVT - $21,952.50
HRV AWD EX w/CVT - $23,202.50
HRV 2WD EXL w/CVT - $24,035.00
HRV AWD EXL w/CVT - $25,285.00
A bit more than expected for the EXL trims, probably due to the Navi. The destination charge also ended up $60 more than what they charge for the FIT, probably due to heightened Mexican security.
I'll be purchasing the 2WD LX w/CVT. With the destination charge and tax and registration, it will come to $22,692.
I never trade in. It is always a loss against selling it yourself. But the convenience of a trade has it's attraction, so I can see why many do that.Yes, but sales tax only applies to the difference between the sales price and trade-in. So sales tax could be faily low if trading in a high value car like my 2014 CR-V
Haha, well I just followed a formula, and it looks like Honda pretty much used the same formula lol.Leon.Not far from what I predicted a month ago....

I thought of you when I first saw the price list. That is why I wondered if it was legit. I thought someone might have pilfered your list and made it look official.![]()
IMHO selling yourself is a hassle and not worth the extra money (but like you I understand why some choose to go this way). I love Honda's tradein values. Plus I always pay cash for a new car and avoid loans.I never trade in. It is always a loss against selling it yourself.

I will be taking the money from my old car and put it toward paying down the loan. (I may also figure a way to pay cash and not need a loan).
Sounds like a good plan.IMHO selling yourself is a hassle and not worth the extra money (but like you I understand why some choose to go this way). I love Honda's tradein values. Plus I always pay cash for a new car and avoid loans.
I plan on waiting a year or two so inventory will have a chance to build and dealers will be able to deal. I could get a new HR-V for as little as $5000 (or hopefuuly less) plus my trade in. If I do that means it cost me less than $140 a month for my CR-V for a 3 year period. plus I get a new car with a new 3 year warranty.
Yeah...I used to think that. When I bought my Vibe, I had a 10 year old Subie with 180k miles on it. They offered me $3k. I figured if that's what they were offering I could do better. A month later I finally got it sold--for $2900. I could have made an extra hundred and saved the tax on the price difference. That was the one regret I had with the whole experience.I never trade in.

It's pretty impressive how close you were. Well done!Haha, well I just followed a formula, and it looks like Honda pretty much used the same formula lol.

Granted that's just one data point, but sometimes it pays to just take the trade in.
