I am not sure why but we had an awful time getting a good price on one of these in NC. We got $34,500 before tax and tags on a Touring with wheel locks and mud guards. We tried Costco and Truecar and this was the best negotiated price out of about 12 different dealers in the area. I haven't bought a new Honda since my S2000 in 2002 and I was surprised how difficult the dealers were to work with. And they all put thousands of dollars of accessories on, jacking the price way up. Anyway, we got fairly recent build and the color we wanted, so we are happy.
Do you still have the S2000? Sweet ride and it should appreciate in value.
 
.
Final price w/out ttl was 34000 flat.
The 34200 included a 199 doc + title fee and 1.25 tire tax. I excluded sales tax since it varies so widely

Thanks, title and doc fees vary quite a bit too. So it is best to just post the car price (including destination charges).
So, for the record and for those keeping track across state lines - $34K for the touring.
 
Negotiated hard with several large dealer networks and independents in my area. Ended up at $33,700 for a touring including a $500 military discount, .9% financing, wheel locks, and a dealership 20yr/200k power train warranty. Not sure what thats worth but it seemed to cover the ice anyway. Looks like I could've gotten another $100-200 off looking at recent posts here. Either way, I'm happy with the deal.
 
I know there are additional incentives for leases in ZEV states ($3000 I think). Can anyone confirm this applies to purchases too? I was originally quoted $5k off from a dealer in NY and I was going to ship it to NC and he later got back to me and said there was an additional $3k that I didn't qualify for living in NC.

Same thing happened to me. I’m in Florida and was working with Nicole at Saccucci Honda in Middletown, RI for several weeks. This was the offer (includes TTL):
The OTD for the base is- $31,451.43
The OTD for the Touring is - $34,298.42
I was closing the deal for next weekend, and she sent me an email indicating that the deal was only for RI residents (although I indicated that I was from Florida and the taxes were based on the Florida tax rate). Very disappointing. Apparently, most the dealers in Florida load the viechles with useless extras and try to charge full price.

Anyone have a lead on a Florida-based, honest Honda dealership that has reasonable pricing on a base or touring Clarity?
 
Paid $5725 for a one pay lease in NY on base model. Took delivery the other day. Better then I expected. Sort of fun. They are giving these things away.

Not giving them away in Florida. Just left a local Tampa dealership minutes ago. The best they could do on a Clarity Touring (built in 2017 and sitting on their lot), with $2,000 in unnecessary extras, was $40,524.37!!!

Anyone know of a Florida Honda dealership that doesn’t load up their cars and offers competitive pricing?
 
I think there were a couple of FL dealership pricings posted earlier in this thread.
BTW, pricing seems to be very dynamic and those dealer(s) may or may not offer the same pricing now.

As for available Honda rebates/lease cash offers, carsdirect seems to have fairly accurate info.

Use the appropriate zip codes.

Was that one-pay lease in NY for 24 months or ??

Thank you Lanb! I bookmarked the site. Unfortunately, “There are no promotional lease deals listed in non-zero-emissions states” at the current time.

Yes it applies to purchases. I took the discount sheet to The Honda Store and they matched it with no questions asked. Odd that a RI dealership said it only applied to RI residents considering they advertise in MA. Maybe they are limiting the discount to New England states or something. Honda Village has five in stock that it seems like they aren’t even trying to sell.

Got $6000 off msrp including my daughters $500 college rebate. Less $7500 from feds and $1700 from NYS.

About time the govt. pay me instead of me paying them all the time.

Great price. Which state? Which dealer? You think they might do it for another car?
 
Did ok, traded in an Accord Hybrid worth about 22k. Got 25k for the trade and another 2k off MSRP including $500 college grad for my masters in May. So 32.5k for a touring. Breakdown:

37500 touring price (with bullshit destination charge)
-3000 extra on trade
-1500 off price
-500 college grad
-1700 NYS credit
-7500 Federal rebate next April
-5000 employer incentive
+1000 accessories (floor mats, lighted sils, door guard, trunk guard, trunk mat, chrome door trim, mud flaps)
=$19,300

Thinking about adding Honda care after the fact but not sure if its worth it with NY PHEV warranties. 10 years 150k miles on basically everything in the hybrid system. They wanted $1500 at the dealer so a little high but I'm sure I can work em down.
