The buyer-side checklist I wish every GTA Honda shopper had before walking into a dealership. Built from real buyer mistakes and dealer-floor shortcuts over the last several years — pricing, financing, trade-in math, add-ons, warranty, insurance, delivery, and the OMVIC rights most buyers don't know they have. Free, no commitment.
Three categories, twenty-seven questions. Each one is something a GTA buyer has asked me after the fact and wished they'd asked before signing.
The line items most buyers accept on first pass because they don't know to push back. What's in the "all-in price", what isn't, the OMVIC disclosure rule, and the difference between dealer add-ons and Honda Genuine Accessories.
Money math: the actual APR you'll pay vs. the manufacturer rate, what HFS loyalty dollars really do, how the Ontario HST credit on a trade-in works, and the gap insurance question most dealers don't volunteer to answer.
The Honda Canada warranty stack (new + extended + CPO), what to check at delivery, the 10-day cooling-off rule, and the OMVIC compensation fund claim process if something goes sideways.
The checklist works whether you're cross-shopping Honda against Toyota, Mazda, Hyundai, or a luxury brand — or you've already decided on Honda and just want to make sure you're not leaving money on the table.
A few notes from recent checklist recipients.
"Caught a $1,400 add-on I didn't need on the first offer. The checklist paid for itself 100x. Henry walked me through the questions when I was nervous, then handed me the room to read at my own pace."
"I had three dealer quotes within $200 of each other. The checklist helped me realize they were all using the same loyalty dollar stacking, and which one was actually the cleanest deal."
"I'm a detailed person and the salesperson could tell. The checklist gave me a way to be that without making it weird. Henry appreciated the questions and we moved through F&I in 40 minutes."
"I'm on a work permit, no Canadian credit yet. The newcomer financing questions in Section 2 are what I needed. Henry was upfront about which lender was most likely to say yes."
Yes. Henry emails the PDF at no cost and with no obligation to buy. The trade-off is he asks for your first name and phone so he can answer follow-up questions if you want them — nothing else.
Fill in the form on this page and Henry will email it within 24 hours. You can also text him directly and he'll send the PDF the same day.
Yes. About a third of the questions are CPO-specific (Carfax, prior use, warranty transfer, accident history). The rest apply to either new or used.
No. Henry uses your info to send the PDF and follow up once with any clarifying questions. No marketing list, no resale, no spam.
Yes. The 27 questions are dealer-agnostic. They apply at any Honda dealer in the GTA, not just Maple Honda. If you want a second opinion after you have the PDF, Henry will run the same-trim, same-term comparison for you at no charge.
The checklist works for cross-shoppers too — the line-item questions are dealer-floor generic. Use the same questions at each store and you'll have a real apples-to-apples comparison.
Text Henry at (647) 523-6878 and he'll send the PDF back the same day. Or WhatsApp the same number.
