: 2008 Accord buyers in Ontario re:$1000 gas card

I have a question for fellow Gen 8 owners who got their cars in the last 60-90 days. The Ontario Honda Dealers were sponsoring a promotion in which they were giving away a $1000 gas card with Accords. My dealer told me that Honda Canada would mail it out. Well 45 days later still no card, so I call Honda Canada and they tell me the dealer should have given it to me at delivery. I can't reach my sales consultant today.

My question to my fellow Accord owners is how and when did you get your gas cards??

Thanks.

I'll let you know on the weekend. I'm picking up my coupe on Saturday.

You can also take it as a direct discount off the car when purchasing.

I picked up my Accord Aug. 1.

I took cash in lieu of the gas card, and had the $1,000 applied to the down payment right at the dealership.

Thanks for the responses guys!

granto: hope you are loving the new coupe.

I spent about 2 hours at my dealer today, I wasn't leaving until I got a cheque for $1K.

This in my first new "imported" car and it appears the dealerships don't operate any differently than the "domestics".

wow your salesman prob try to pull a quick one... post him up!

the 1000$ 'gas card' is a shared incentive .. honda pays 500 dealer pays 500.. it's just a negotiation tool and knocks the $1K total off the car.
