200 miles?? by mdavis99

I just bought a EX-L RES Odyssey and it was trailered in to the dealer...It has 200 miles on it. Should I be concerned? Should I ask for anything to make up for the 200 miles?
 
I know on past cars I've had, there's a break in period where you're not suppose to drive the car above 50 MPH. The Sales Manager says not to worry...not the case with HOnda and that the car was only test driven.
 
Help, please.

2006 Touring RES Kansas City by jposterman

Wanted to share, I was able to purchase on Monday a 2006 Touring RES (no Navi) for $32,650 (includes destination) does not include $189 doc fee or sales tax (7.53% here).
 
To get the color we wanted, this was a dealer trade and had to be trucked here from another state. Had 50 miles on it. I'm happy with the deal, which is less than invoice and did cut into the dealers holdback a bit. We had a chance to buy one on the dealers lot for $350 less, but getting the color was work it.
 
In the end, waiting for the 2007 wasn't worth it, no real feature upgrades, $300 higher MSRP and no $500 incentive and no cheap Honda interest rates.
 
Thanks to all the participants on this board, this is a great tool to give prospective buyers and idea of what these vans are selling for around the country.

Congrats. I'm in KC as well. What dealer did you end up using? I almost have a deal closed with Independence Honda. However, the van came in on the trailer and has 200 miles on it. Should I be concerned? I may ask them to throw some all weather mats in or something.....

I had noticed that there seem to be quite a few Odyssey Touring vans on the lots that we visited in our search for an EXL RES. I think the reputation of the run flat tires is catching up with them. My sales person at Huebert Vester Honda in Wilson stated that they have not been able to move the Touring models and have sold less than a dozen all year. If you are willing to gamble on the run flats, it looks to me like they are willing to move that model on out the door at unusally good savings to the buyer.
 
Also, when we purchased our van, I was told that there were about 150 miles on the van and that the van was being driven in from a different lot. The van ended up with 240 miles on it, but we were aware of this ahead of time and were very pleased with the deal that we were getting. I think your only real recourse to a dealer springing mileage on you is to not purchase the vehicle. They may be willing to do something to bring you back to the table, but be ready to walk away.
 
Personally, I was not concerned about the mileage on our vehicle. The only concern I had was that the person moving the vehicle used the cruise control in the relocation. Cruise control should not be used in the first 1000 miles of use of the vehicle due to engine settling issues. But, in the end, I figured that the cruise was used for only a short period of mileage since the route it was transported contains many turns and speed changes, so I am willing to overlook that and just be happy with our new van.

2006 EX-L with NAV & DVD by texasrn

I live in the DFW area and bought our new odyssey for $33,500 OTD. Accessories included tint, wheel locks, VIN etching, and splash guards. Probably may have been able to get a little cheaper, but it was hard to find the color I wanted. Rusty Wallis (Mesquite) was the dealer and the internet sales mgr negotiated out the door cost over the phone. I couldn't have been happier. Avoid Lute Riley Honda as they told me they had the color, I drove 1 1/2 hrs to get there (after making an appt), then they tell me they don't have the right model or color. They were asking $34,000 OTD with no acessories!!!

Awesome deal from Capitol Honda San Jose by odsisgr8

Just bought an 06 Odyssey EX-L from Capitol Honda. Here is breakup -
 
Price $26688.00 (about 1200 below invoice
Taxes $ 2205.47 (8.25%)
Regis/Other $ 290.75
------------------------------
OTD $29184.22 (is'nt that great!)
6year/80K Warrenty $ 1855.00
------------------------------
Final $31039.22
 
How does the deal look? I literally started at 9:00AM in the morning sending quote requests (Capitol was the first one to whom I sent and they also were the first ones to respond - less than 15 minutes). Got an internet quote for $26988. I went in there around 4:00PM and test drove the car. After just about 15-20 minutes of negotiations - once I told them I was ready to buy the extended warrenty they reduced the price (obviously i had to push hard) by 300 bucks and struck a deal! But was a extremely coooool experience. Brought home the car at 9:00PM. Whew! Had not imagined that it would go this smoooooth.
 
Hope it helps. For anyone who is looking around this Labor Day weekend -
 
Get internet quotes first. This is a MUST.
Negotiate as hard as you can with the quotes - pitching the best quote around and asking for more - from your living room over the phone. Once you have the right quote and the color/trim available with anyone - only then - shoot at him and get the deal struck.
 
The car is just awesome. Once I struck the deal got another friend of mine come in and do a similar deal! My salesman just got crazy!!!
 
All the best with your search. Hope you get the car you want.

Price is good for the Car Price. But Check out the Warranty Deal. Looks like they made money on that as Visit this - www.hondawarranty.com and the price for that is very low. I myself lost on the warranty deal and just wanted to help you. I payed 6/100k for 1300. on Honda warranty online it is 960.
 
  Suggestion is go ahead and cancel it with Capitol Honda and then sign up online after a month. you should be fine and yours a awesome deal car Price.
