Best price I got was at Grand Blanc was 31842 out the door (6% tax, $180 doc fee, $23 title) Is this a good deal or should i hold out for something better? Anybody have experience with dealers in Detroit or Saginaw? Ann Arbor & Lansing nearby too. Thanks.

ODY-LX MSRP $26,240 In Boston MA, you do the math ...
Lease 3 yrs + buy out at end of lease 14,950.00
2,500 down
148/month for 36 months
12K mi per yr.
 
If you add them up $22,778 is wicked cheaper than the MSRP $26,240

EXL 2007 Ody No Nav/No DVD in NC by truthseekr
Aug 08, 2007 (4:54 pm)

OK everyone,
I read back a few pages, and I have a few questions for the seasoned negotiators.
1. If it was true that there was a dealer incentive of $1701, how much of that would the dealer give up?
2. Is there a possibility that the dealer would give up some or all of the 'holdback'?
3. How do you start the negotiations with the dealers when you know the invoice price, and already have some good figures?
4. I have an offer of this:
28100 invoice (actually is less than all other dealers invoice of 28686)
400 processing
Is there a better offer in NC within 250 miles of Greensboro NC?
I'm looking to buy this weekend, so could use more of this amazing insight!

1. My guess (and it is nothing more than that) is that if the quoted incentive is true it is an average based on sales volume and/or geographic location. Inasmuch as these vehicles have been selling for less than invoice many places, dealers are giving up some of this and/or holdback (your #2).
 
2. See #1.
 
3. There are reams of threads here on this topic but if you've got a good number, just see who, if anybody, will beat it.
 
4. You can find this out on your own by seeking email quotes. It shouldn't take many to find out your local market.

For these occasions, where an EX-L was purchased for $26500+fees+taxes, I have talked to the Internet Sales Manager of the dealers(Indiana/Missouri). They either told me that such a sale did not occur at all or there was a trade in or some sort of last minute Honda sales quote fulfillment award. Moreover, they are not able to offer me the same deal.
 
Anyway, at least that tells me either there is that $1701 incentive or they are able to make money on $26500, perhaps with doc fees. So, I made up my mind to wait for that $26500 ish deal for an 07, whenever it may be September thru December. If I can't get it that sweet enough, I will go for an 08.

Here is my opinion for whatever it is worth(may not be much).
 
(1) There may be some truth to it though almost all dealers' quotes and responses that I got seem to strongly refute it, so it's a myth at this point. Or as the other poster said, could be dependent on some sort of condition, volume, quota, location etc
 
(2) Holdback yes, incentive maybe, yet again they say what incentive -
 
(3) My experience is, getting an Internet quote is nice and improved the process a bit. But I agree with a previous poster that it is only a way to lure you to the dealer. It only saves you to drive around from dealer to dealer. I felt that they don't actually believe that you really are a buyer, especially if the dealer is not from local area. I am willing to travel for a deal but dealers don't think so. Actually, one dealer sent me an e-mail pointing out to some market research study saying that most people get Internet quotes, use that quote to negotiate but eventually buy locally. So, I felt that non-local dealers are not taking some potential buyers seriously. I'd guess that most dealers prefer you to come down and haggle/negotiate there on their turf rather than negotiate over e-mail.
 
(4) Best I found is in Greensboro Crown, $28000 + 400 doc. If you are willing to go Northern VA, you can do few hundred better.
 
See my previous post of waiting this out. If you end up buying this weekend, let me know how it goes.

Edmunds TMV pricing by ncbuyer1
Aug 09, 2007 (5:58 am)
Reply
I can't find where Edmunds explains whether the TMV price is OTD, or if it excludes or includes taxes, title, tags. They've got a detailed description which omits any mention of taxes. I'm having major difficulty getting close to the prices people seem to be discussing here, so I'm thinking of hammering my salesman with the TMV value-- but I know the first thing he's going to say is that it excludes TTT.
 
Does anybody know? Also, does anybody have a link?

I've emailed all the south Florida dealers. The quotes I've received so far hover around 28200 before TTL. I haven't counter offered yet.
 
I mentioned the 27000 deals to some dealers and they told me they couldn't do it. One said there is no incentive at all. But another mentioned that there is $750 incentive.
 
One suggestion I read on line is to request quotes at the end of Month or even better at the end of a quarter. If you can afford to wait, you may give it a try. The labor day long weekend is coming up soon. I hope the dealers will offer some incentives. I saw from this Forum some people got good deals around last Independent day.
 
But I am ready to buy if the price is close to 27000...
