Usually you'll receive a no-hassle type price when you send out your inquiries. Accept the deals that are the closest to your desires. Also ask if they have the Ody in stock that you are interested in.
 
I can tell you that as the Internet Sales Mgr for a Honda dealership, we tend to give it out up front. You can usually do everything through the web and via phone once you have the dealership narrowed down.
 
Also some dealers will quote prices that do not include destination or fees...make sure you have the on the road pricing.
 
Good luck to you.

EX Cloth by netto

Just got my new car last night. 25,545 (Inc Dest+Doc). TTL is extra.
 
The dealership was great, they helped with getting a rear camera installed. The car also came with a few extras, Muds, Roof Rack, Pin stripe etc. Was shown the dealer cost of the Roof Rack as 240. I think I could have gone lower as I had 3 dealerships competing for business, but I liked this dealer. They were sincere and priced low from the start. I called Mike Pruitt but they couldn't match and this dealer is just around the corner from me.
 
Ex Cloth 25,545 Ed Voyles, Atlanta. Ask for the sales person who sold a blue Odyssey on the 10th of Feb He is very professional. Tell him that the couple who purchased the Blue Odyssey sent you.
 
I also want to mention the other dealers who were close on price.
 
Hennessy Honda, Woodstock GA.
(I think they could have beaten the price I paid).
 
Willett Honda, Morrow Ga.
(Very friendly)
 
Personally there were 3 important points to consider:
 
SERVICE + PRICE + CONVENIENCE
 
If the service is good than its worth paying extra for the other 2 points.

EX-L RES/NAV in Bay Area by lmipsr

Just picked up an EXL R&N in Bay Area for 32700 - incl dest and moon visor.
 
Made a rash decision to go with the xzilon protection at the last minute ( doh! ) but overall happy with the deal.
 
Its black ext. so xzilon seemed like a good idea at the time.

O% Financing ?? by r3050

Does anyone have any experience with College Park Honda in MD? They currently have a 0% financing deal on new Honda's. I got an Internet quote close to the TMV. I haven't tried to negotiate yet as I live a fair distance away and haven't made it into the dealership. At 0%, I would be saving lots of $ on not paying any interest on this purchase. It all seems too good to be true. Does anyone have any experiences with this dealer? Do they have the 0% deal often? I am in no rush to buy this car as baby #2 is only due in a couple more months but I don’t want to miss out on this 0% rate. I have never seen Honda's with a 0% deal before.
 
If you need to finance the purchase, why wouldn't everyone in the DC VA MD area go to the dealer? What am I missing??? I haven't seen anything mentioned at all. Thanks for any insight!

I have been shopping for either an EX-L R&N or Touring R&N in and around the Bay Area. Best price so far for an EX-L R&N was $500 over invoice ($32,146) and Touring R&N was $100 over invoice. Both were done through the internet and phone with internet sales managers. It was pretty easy. The only thing is that silver pearl seems to be hard to get.
 
What dealer did you get your vehicle from and was it through the internet sales?

The prices I mentioned are from dealers in the Twin Cities MN metro area.

Could the two recent posters in the Bay Area share the dealerships you have spoken to and your impressions of each? I am a Berkeley resident, soon to be in the market for an EX-L RES / NAV. We have some dealerhips nearby (El Cerrito, Oakland, Berkeley) but I'm willing to travel. Thanks.

Got mine in Livermore. El Cerrito were coming in at 1K over invoice. Oakland were a little higher. Berkeley Honda never responded.
 
They were all close in the end. Just a matter of what they have in stock and proximity to you house.

the xzilon is the best stuff I have ever seen. If any of my customers have any questions, I offer them to spray paint my RL, thats how much I believe in it

I have yet to get an answer from College Park Honda about 0% ads they are running on Google.
 
They have in the past "bought down" the rate...which means that they charge you more for the Ody, relative to the interest rate and say that you are getting 0%.
 
For example, lets say that a EX Ody sells for 26,000 and the current interest rate is 5%
 
The 0% game is like this they sell the car for 29,000 and "show you" 0% rate. Again, this is just a simplified example.
 
There is a reason that College Park doesn't have evryone beating down their doors...but that's games that DC area dealers play.
