Agree with Duper. You may be able to get another $200 out of them, but at the end of the day you are getting a great van at a great price. Looking through some of the old posts when the current generation Odyssey first came out, some folks were paying $2K OVER invoice.. I'd say you did just fine
 
You will love the van. It is a great vehicle.

Thank you, youngt. Did your $428/mo include taxes or not? I sent out a bunch of requests for a net quote, and one came back (so far) with the the following:
48 mo lease
15K miles per year (I did ask for 15K)
$479 per month INCLUDING TAX (which for me is 6.5%, i.e. ~$31/month)

I've asked them for what price this quote is based on, what the residual and money factor they are using, etc. I will post when I get this data. For now, I am not sure how it compares to yours, given the mileage and tax differences, unless yours included tax, in which case your deal blows my quote away.
 
P.S. How much extra should I expect to pay for 15K per month vs. 12K per month?

Thanks to all for the advice. I just got a call back from the dealer at the higher price, saying he can knock "several hundred" dollars off his price. I'm planning to go by and talk to him in person tomorrow. If he's just using this to get me in, I'll go to the first dealer and be done with it.

The residual will drop 2% when you go to the 15K/yr lease from 12K/yr..
 
If the MSRP is $35K, it will add a little over $700 to your total lease payments.... Or, about $20/mo.

Genester1 - I chose to pay all taxes and fees up front. My goal was to try and keep the payments as close to 400 as possible (even though I insisted we get the DVD player !)Tax rate was 8.65% which translated to just under $1,400. I also had to pay a "Acq Fee" of $595. I was suspicious of this fee only because it was easy to get the car at invoice. Who knows maybe I could have gotten out of this fee - this is my first time leasing a vehicle. There was no security deposit required either. The only negative experience I had was when the finance person tried to sell us Total Loss Protection (GAP Insurance). Not only is it included in all American Honda Leases it is required by NY Law !!!
 
For April the residuals for the Ex-l, Ex-lR, and EXL-RN was 60, 58, and 56 respectively. I am curious what they are for the month of May. Our salesguy said they dropped a point. I really wanted to wait 2 months but I was afraid with the 07 models coming that the residuals would drop even more!

KYFDX, thank you!
 
Here's the question: I have no intention of buying the car at the end. I will definitely need the 15K miles per year. Am I better off getting 12K per year, and then gambling on the dealer taking the car off my hands when the lease runs close to being done (buying it and selling it to the dealer as a condition of getting a new car from them), or should I bite the bullet and get the 15K?

Question about the May Lease Special by howard2dot0
May 12, 2006 (9:42 pm)

A newbie here...
My credit score is 687 and I was wondering if I should even bother to go to the local Honda dealer to see if they would give me the May special of $269/month lease for a 2006 Odyssey LX.
If I can't get a good deal on Odyssey I may have to settle for a Sienna or Quest.
Thanks for any help in advance.

I don't know about the finance, but I am in the Round Rock and have a price of $28790 for the EXL and 29,290 with the res....what are you getting as far as quotes? (both of these include the "appearance package", which they say they are charging $200 for.

Get the 15K/yr upfront..
 
9000 extra miles for $720... That is only $0.08 per mile...
 
If you know you are going to use the extra mileage, it is a no-brainer..

Silver color at SC. I am too cheap to buy a EX, but I am happy with the van now. Cross my fingers now.
