It is an RS model which has all the bells and whistles Honda has to offer. Maybe even a small turbo on it. I opted for the Civic RS and it is a far step above the other models. But it sounds like his kid is saving some money so will not require those extra features. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask the dealer and they call around, but if it is special sent then it will probably be subject to a fee to be sent up here. Mazda is running a heck of a sale right now with a big discount. I bought my Civic RS at Matrix CM and am pretty happy from their sales gals. BTW. last time checked Honda charges extra money for the color black. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FAIR doesnt come into it, forget fair, they can either do it or they cant its up to them not you to decide if they can do the deal. EVERY dealer is different even with the same manufacturer, those that want a deal and those that dont. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donmuang37 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 In normal times, you can't haggle about car prices in Thailand because cartels are not illegal here. So all dealers charge the same or they can lose their franchise. You can, however, negotiate to get free Class A insurance for 1 year, plus free window film, fancy floor mats, etc. That said, in these difficult times some dealers have been known to discount a little, especially on slow moving models. Good luck to your son, but he will have to get out and do the shopping himself. Little you can do to help him. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 The prices seem about as listed by Honda dealers everywhere. I think your choice is a good, practical one. Maybe some "freebies" thrown in at time of purchase, go for it. If paying cash get hold of the boss if you can for a better deal, the salesman will want you on H.P as they get more commission 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pineapple01 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 There is limited info on this topic to give, and has been given already. There is info to gain as to regarding posters who love the sound of their own voice and tell how much they have learned for a millennial pup. You wont beat a Thai Dealer,just fool yourself that bin liner n insurance is free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If browsing cars to see what your neighbor paid try zigwheels. New question, if there's an owner on TV of the 5 seat Mobilio, can an extra third row of seats be easily fitted? I'm guessing that the screw holes etc., probably with plugs, would already be there in the basics of the vehicle frame for all models. Can anybody please confirm fitting the third row of seats can be done easily? Further, fitting the third row of seats also depends on being able to buy the extra row of seats and hopefully to match the existing seats. Any comments appreciated.
