My parents bought a civic through an auto broker (Thaico Auto Leasing & Sales Ltd), the owner John Thai is a great guy, no BS'ing.
Or if you have any friends who work at any dealerships at all, they can get a honda for you at wholesale price (and then they tack on whatever fees they please), so it doesn't necessarily have to be at a Honda dealership if you want to buy a honda.

I can say that west wood honda is great for sales ask for peter hes the man hes truthful and I did not feel rushed and he made the car I wanted match the price I wanted to spend but for service center not so good..
I find that marv jones has a great service center is great sale I do not know..

Go to Vancouver Honda and look for Wilson Ng. Great guy to deal with and extremely knowledgeable. | HAHAHAHAHAHA THAT WAS YOU!!? OMG talk of the office. Reminds me of the time a customer came in with an ice cream cone and Benji said " want some coffee on your ice cream?".
If you do come to middlegate ask for Brian Wu or Paul. They'll take care of you

What's the one on Marine Drive near Oak? Vancouver Honda? If it is, go to Vancouver Honda. I got my Si Sedan there and it was great service.
Do NOT go to Richmond Honda in richmond automall. I was all ready to buy the car so I went to Richmond Honda. I asked to test drive one and the first thing the guy said to me was "Oh..there are 19 year old who wants to test our cars everyday and we simply can't do that. Sorry. No test drives. Plus, we currently have no Civic Si Sedan on the lots." I walked out of the show room onto the lot and there were at least THREE Civic Si Sedan on the lot clearly visible. So i walked back in and was like WTF? and the guy was like "Oh..must've missed those eh?" *guy walks away*.
Next day, I go to Vancouver Honda. I told them what i need, let me test drove the car, I liked it, did the paperwork and done. Easy as 1-2-3 and super friendly service.

talk to Gurp at Richmond Acura. He gave us a good price on our RSX and MDX. He has contacts at other dealerships and got our friend a good deal on a mazda3. A better price than the dealer that she was at.

nobody on here went to kingsway honda? If anyone is still in the market for a honda then come to kingsway honda on 12th and kingsway. I'm the new salesman there so just pm me what you're looking for and i'll hook you guys up. New guy needs to sell to keep his job so I'll be giving them away pretty much.

3 or 4 months ago I went with my friend to the Richmond Auto Mall honda dealership, and they gave us the best price on a 2 year lease on an accord coupe 4cyl. The chinese lady there seemed like she was one of those market sales ppl in chinatown, but at least she gave us the best price. On the day that we were picking up, she hardly dealt with us, because she knew she had locked in the deal already, She was lazy and dealt with other customers in between. |

the price difference between dealerships is minimal. You don't need to goto 10 dealerships to get an extra 100 bucks off. It also really depends on the managers mood that day. If hes in a good mood, he'll give out a good deal.
