Opt for a 2018 Touring Lease. Selling price is $23,100. Total lease payment is $10,382 for 36mos. RV set at $14,623. No tax for me since I traded in a car (credited whole tax on Clarity) but no money was put down for Clarity. + $1,700 state rebate (when they fund 2020 rebate in June or July, 2019 rebated already depleted)
Perhaps- if Honda actually did a little outreach and advertised the discount........ if the Honda dealers admitted upfront that the discount exists...... if the sales people at the dealerships knew what a PHEV is and how it works Maybe then Clarity would be a force to be reckoned with. I remember when I bought our Volt three years ago, I had to show the salesperson how to work it.
Just bought a Clarity Touring for $30,000 (+ttl) in SF Bay Area. Probably could have gotten another $500 knocked off if I wasn't so picky on color I wanted. Costco price offered was $30,499, but they had the wrong color. That is before I get my Fed tax rebate. That $6k incentive is excellent!
Don't forget your State of California Clean Vehicle Rebate ($1500) and the PG&E customer rebate ($800). Sign up right away if you care about the 4-6 week wait for the cash. Enjoy!
Signed paperwork for a base trim Clarity in WA state. This was the last one on their lot. Net Price: $25,850 Out the door after 9.5% tax: $28,990 We only get the federal tax incentive of $7500 here, so about 21,500 after tax rebate.
I'm not a Costco member - my son is - so I've never heard of these Costco discounts or incentives on cars. What are they and how do they work? Is it something available in Michigan as well as California?
2 different dealers in my area (central NC) have told me that Honda is offering $5100 in manufacturer discounts on 2018s. I was able to get $6k off MSRP quoted as a first offer at 3 different dealers. I bought a 2018 base for $26,500 + TTL or $28,000 OTD. Sales Managers are very eager to move the 2018s off the lot.
The incentives offered are for ZEV participating states. In CA & OR, we get the huge discounts due to the ZEV participation. If you live in the northeast, you get even more (ZEV + DFLC). I think MI, is a non ZEV state so you would have to negotiate off dealer discount only.
Got mine for 29.5+ TTL which included the stupid pro-pack they tried to get $1k for. Ended up paying 500 for it just to leave so it's $29.5 added 7 years 80k miles warranty for another $1500 but is debating on if I should keep it.
My vehicle came with Lifetime powertrain warranty from the dealer. (Scott robinson in Southern California) The extension is for bumper to bumper, which I'm still debating on if it's worth it. I added it since I have 60 days to cancel, chance are the HOV sticker will not come back for this car after 4 years so I'll be getting a new vehicle at that time anyways.
