Pssst! Hear that? It's a can of worms. Before this delves down into sub-terrainian discussion about dealer 'honesty' or lack thereof, it's heartwarming to see a dealer lament that consumers collectively are sharing their 'dirty negotiation tricks'. It's not pay back time but there is a grin on my face on behalf of others.
 
I don't advocate being dishonest any more than I support doing business with a dealer that does the same. It is perhaps the best policy to go in educated, be honest in that you can and should let a dealer know you're aware of their final cost to acquire a vehicle, what they are 'selling' for (i.e. Edmund's and elsewhere), and MSRP. Any creative tactics on behalf of the customer will be recognized by professional management as a bargaining tool and are fair game on our part. Are we supposed to just open our wallets and turn out heads? While I shed no tears I do feel hondadlr's pain. Not all car dealers are crooks nor are any retailer, they have a bad rap but still choose polyester and white patent leather shoes. Maybe more should seek fashion help along with reading more of Edmunds to improve image. We are privileged to be aware of profit margin with vehicles, ever try that with an appliance, or anything else for that matter? Let's do out part to respect them, providing it's a 'mutual' thing, I hope you understand.

I think a mistake has been made here. You are still asking if this is a "good" deal?
 
Ah...you better snap that one up before they realize their mistake!
 
Or, maybe the So. Calif market is even more ruined than I thought it was?

Let me see if I'm getting this...
 
You have a dealer who "says" they will sell you a NAVI/DVD Odyssey for below invoice with those accessories and you are STILL pitting dealers against each other?
 
I think you've been lowballed.

" You can also fib a little"
 
Nice.
 
Let me share a little secret...we know when our customers are lying to us and when this happens, we lose all respect for you.
 
We know about your "hidden trade" that you were "going to sell yourself" too.
 
Advise? Be upfront and honest and don't grind for the last possible cent. You will still get a great deal and both of us will leave happy.

Hello all Odyssey shoppers. Just want to share my experience when I bought my 2006 Odyssey with RES only (No Navigator). With the help of this forum, I was able to hagle the price down to $32,500 out the door! The dealer's name was 1st Honda of Simi Valley, CA. I'm just wondering if there's any dealers out there that can beat this price? Please share it in this forum. Thanks!

St. Louis Missouri -EXL- RES and NAV by bishoptf

Have been reading here for quite awhile, just wanted to post my deal.
We bought a 2006 Black exl- w/ RES and NAV for 32,700 (does not
include sales tax, seperate in MO). This did include pin stripes and
mud guards, we had been talking to almost all of the dealers but
wanted a white one and couldn't find one, its funny because I did
most of my querying through email, and didn't receive alot of
attention. The one dealer that had the most instock (color wise)
negotiated over the phone and agreed on a price and we went and
looked and the wife liked the black better than the white so thats
what we ended up with. The dealer was St. Louis Honda (Dave
Mungenast automotive group). When we showed up everything went very smooth, no hassels
signed papers and took the car. Might could have gotten a few hundred
better if we had waited but it was only 150 of of our lowest price.
Just thought I'd post and add to the database...
 
PS, love the NAV....

Just the normal stuff that came with an EX-L with DVD like sunroof, leather interior, heated seats, folding\removable chair, floormats, alloy wheels, the only thing that's missing is the navigation system. But everything else are there. WHat specific add ons or accessories you're referring to?

I was able to negotiate a deal on a 2006 Odyssey EXL with Res for $30K +TTL. It was an in-stock unit at Sussex Honda in NJ. I got online quotes ranging from 30,369 to 31,069 before I went to Sussex with my offer. They immediately took it.
No fees besides a $99 doc fee.
