It's not a Honda issue - I've owned three of them in the last 6 years and purchased in Tampa. Always got a fair price.
It's a Jenkins issue. All of their dealerships here. Honda. Hyundai. Kia. Mazda. Nissan. All of them. they are taking advantage of stupid people with money (or just stupid people who are willing to take out big loans for cars up here).
I literally got a Genesis in Clearwater at MSRP. the same car without an additional $17K for the same car down here just 2 months ago. My jaw must have literally dropped when the dealer quoted me $83,000 for a car that the MSRP was $67,500. AND gave me far less for my trade-in than even Kelley Blue Book. They tried to rip me off. We just walked out. 2 days later, I sent a copy of the invoice i actually paid to Fitzgerald Genesis in Clearwater to the salesman and the manager and told them that this is how honest dealers operate.
again, it's a Jenkins thing. and probably others in the area too, but all the Jenkins places were doing the same BS with the heavily marked up prices
