And if your in Phoenix/Scottsdale, "Forget aboud id"...Sticker price and up!

Why is that ?

To me, the first few miles are critical for break in and are integral to the benefits of purchasing a new car. 400 miles of short trip test drives seems a little too high to me

I don't consider an engine broken in with only 400 miles.

Just my experience!
Tried to deal on a Civic at a dealer in Scottsdale while my daughter was in school at ASU and they were being upmarketed not discounded. Same with the Accord! I'm sure it's not all Honda dealerships but, I know of too many dealers that do this on their Honda's. Even preowned they're quite a bit higher in this part of AZ compared to my home town here in western NY.

Had the same experience in Tampa/St.Pete's, Clearwater, Tarpin Springs area while I had my home in NewPortRichey. They only discount them a bit here where I live(Rochester) but there isn't much money to make on them anyway(like most vehicles these days).
