Why NAU Students Choose Findlay Honda Flagstaff
🎓 We Understand Student Situations
Limited credit, income from a job plus parent support, out-of-state addresses on your license, parents in another state willing to co-sign — none of this is new to us. Our finance team walks through your situation and lays out what's realistic, not what sounds good in a pitch.
💰 Honest About Budget
Student budgets are real budgets. If a new Civic payment doesn't work, we'll show you a certified pre-owned Civic that does. If financing doesn't work this year, we'll tell you what to do to be in position next year. Honest guidance, not pressure.
🏫 Near Campus, Open Six Days
Findlay Honda Flagstaff is a short drive from NAU's main campus — accessible by local roads and highway. We're open Monday through Saturday, 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, so you can get in between classes, after work, or on weekends.
Best Honda Models for NAU Students
Honda Civic
Compact Sedan or Hatchback
The classic student Honda. Excellent fuel economy for driving home on breaks, lowest monthly payment points in the Honda lineup, bulletproof reliability. New and used Civics are consistently the most popular Honda for NAU students.

Compact SUV
Honda's smallest SUV, with available AWD for Flagstaff winters. Easy to park on campus, affordable, surprising amount of cargo space for a vehicle this size. Strong fit for students who need winter capability without stepping up to a CR-V.
View HR-V Inventory →Honda Civic Hybrid
Compact Hybrid Sedan
For students driving regularly to Phoenix, Vegas, or back home across the country, Civic Hybrid's exceptional fuel economy pays for itself over time. Lease-friendly monthly payments on upper trims.

Honda CPO Program
Honda CPO vehicles are inspected, reconditioned, and come with factory-backed warranty extensions — the sweet spot of value and peace of mind for a student budget. Certified Civic, CR-V, Accord, and HR-V are routinely in stock.

Used Inventory
For tighter budgets, our used inventory often includes well-maintained older Civics, Accords, Fits, and CR-Vs at student-friendly price points. Every used Honda is inspected before it hits our lot.

Compact SUV
For grad students, students with roommates or families, or anyone needing more space, CR-V is the step up. Available AWD, strong fuel economy, excellent resale value when you graduate and need to sell.
View CR-V Inventory →Student Financing — How It Works
- Pick a target budget — not just the car payment, but insurance, parking at NAU, gas, and routine maintenance. We'll help you work backward from what fits realistically.
- Apply for pre-approval — online or in person. You'll know your approved amount, interest rate, and whether a co-signer would improve your terms before you commit to any specific vehicle.
- Consider a co-signer if needed — a parent or family member with established credit can help you qualify or get a better rate. The co-signer doesn't need to be present in Flagstaff.
- Check Honda College Grad eligibility — if you're a recent grad or graduating within six months, you may qualify for additional incentives. We'll check at application.
- Trade in your current vehicle — if you have one. Free appraisal, no obligation; trade value can go toward your down payment.
- Pick the right Honda for your situation — new, certified pre-owned, or used. We'll be straight with you about which option fits your budget best, even when a less expensive option is the honest answer.
Honda Service for NAU Students
Buying a car in Flagstaff means you also want a service department you can rely on while you're here. Our factory-trained Honda technicians handle oil changes, tires, battery service, brakes, and warranty work on every Honda — and we're an easy drive from campus. We also service non-Honda vehicles, so if you've got a used Toyota or Nissan from before you got the Civic, we can help you keep that running too. Service hours mirror sales: Monday through Saturday, 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, closed Sunday.
And if your Honda is still under warranty when you come to NAU — common for freshmen with newer family cars — we can perform warranty service here regardless of where the Honda was originally purchased. Honda warranty coverage follows the vehicle, not the dealership.
Frequently Asked Questions — Honda Dealer for NAU Students
Can an NAU student get financed for a Honda in Flagstaff?
Yes. NAU students can apply for Honda financing through Honda Financial Services and other lending partners we work with. Approval depends on credit history, income, and other factors. Students with limited credit history often qualify by adding a parent or family member as co-signer. Our finance team is familiar with student situations and will walk through options honestly.
What's the Honda College Grad program?
The Honda College Graduate Program offers special financing incentives for recent college graduates (typically those within six months of graduation or planning to graduate within six months). Eligibility, incentive amounts, and terms are set by Honda and can change — contact Findlay Honda Flagstaff for current College Grad program details.
Which Honda is best for an NAU student?
For most NAU students, the Honda Civic and HR-V are the practical picks — affordable to buy, cheap to run, excellent fuel economy for Flagstaff-to-home driving, and small enough to park easily around campus. HR-V with AWD is a strong fit for students who want winter capability. Used Honda Civic and Fit models are also excellent lower-budget options.
Can my parents co-sign on my Honda in Flagstaff?
Yes. Co-signing is common for student buyers who have limited credit history. A parent (or any qualified co-signer) can be added to the loan to help you qualify or get a better rate. The co-signer doesn't need to be present in Flagstaff — much of the paperwork can be handled remotely. Call (928) 774-7200 to discuss how it works.
Do you take trade-ins from students?
Yes. Whether your current car is a hand-me-down from your family, a car you bought locally, or an out-of-state vehicle you drove to NAU, we'll give you a free trade-in appraisal with no obligation. Trade-in value can be applied to your down payment or roll into your financing. Many graduating students use their trade-in to upgrade to a newer Honda as they start their career.
Does Findlay Honda Flagstaff serve NAU students who live on campus?
Yes. Our dealership is a short drive from NAU's main campus — easily accessible by local roads and highway. We service NAU students year-round for new and used vehicle purchases, Honda service, and trade-ins. For students without transportation to our location, we can discuss shuttle or pickup options when you call to schedule.
