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.

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.

I read their website, couldn't find details but it does say something like "prices may vary for 0% financing". I can't get it to come up now....Tom

I've sent them a couple of Internet inquiries through their web site and specifically asked about it...I have never received an answer.

Good Ole' Dealer Add Ons! by day_tripper64

Took the missus to the dealer for the first time today. I just wanted her to drive a new Odyssey and explained to the sales person that I wasn't ready to start negotiating. I did however take note of the window sticker and along with the expected MSRP and Destination charge was another sticker with Dealer Installed Equipment:
 
$399 - Dealer Prep
$395 - Protection Package (splash gaurds, cargo tray, wheel locks)
$99.95 - Pinstripe
 
I asked the sales person to explain what $400 worth of "dealer prep" was. She had a hard time explaining it and said the mechanics inspected it and removed all the tape stuff that came on it from the factory.
I know this is all a load of crap for the dealer to make more money, but should I expect all dealers to have this???

Don't worry about those extras... When you get ready to make an offer, make it clear that your offer includes all money due the dealer.. and that the only additions you will pay are taxes and government title/license fees..
 
Then, they can break it down however they want... Those kinds of charges are only there to confuse the issue... and raise the price over what you've already agreed to pay.

I lived couples mile from College Park Honda, but never try their business, nor of my friends. They normally give very good price over internet, then charge 2000 for protection packeage after you get there. They said it is standard with the car, which is not true. You may get that package for 1500 after spending a whole day there. They will send different people to keep you there. Finally you can figure out the price for the car.
BTW I got my Accord from Sport Honda,MD and Odyssey from Faulkner Honda, PA. Those dealership are nice and honest.
