Any Massachusetts Honda dealers reading this?

I've given up trying to get Honda dealers to respond to my request for a
quote via e-mail. I suspect, an average one just doesn't know how to use
it. Judging by their Flash-heavy web-sites, their IT-departments value
presentation ONLY, caring little for the utility :-(

So... I'd like a quote on Honda Fit (Sport) with the following important
options:

Automatic Transmission
GPS
Bluetooth integration -- for cell-phone(s)
Remote Starter
Moon-roof

Color is not too important, but grey is preferred. Please, respond by
e-mail. Thank you very much!

Just between you and me and the wall, there are one hell of a lot more
people (including Honda dealer employees) who know how to handle email
than who have ever even heard of usenet.

Heh, try sending a fax. Maybe they'll think you someone important.

Good luck with that; the Fit is in high demand. Even if you walked
in to a dealer, with cash, and they had one in stock, you'd be hard pressed
to get it for MSRP + 20%.

Is available + $1000 over manual trans price.

Might be available in the future as an accessory (Garmin Nuvi) +
$1000

You're on your own.

Can be done; but not an authorized Honda accessory. + $ ??????

Would absolutely be an after market butcher job... + $ ???????

If you were looking for an Accord they would probably jump on your
request, but since Fits are sold out well in advance they probably have
little reason to chase you. If you want a Fit, you are going to have to
visit people in person and be willing to pay the price. Personally I
would wait for a better supply:demand balance before getting one.

The real bargain Honda right now is a 4 cylinder manual transmission
Accord. You can get them fairly cheap and it is a good car.

Honda hasn't stepped up to the plate as far as options or creature
comforts. Sunroof, remote start, GPS, and bluetooth will have to be
aftermarket items for sure. I should know, I own an aftermarket bizz
that caters to dealerships.
