Berkut, The dealer that quoted invoice for the 08 EXL RES was Northwest Honda in BELLINGHAM, WA which is about 50 miles north of Seattle. If yo'ure looking for the same car, we may be able to get a group buy deal.
 
On a separate note - has anyone tried using a credit card to pay for a significant chunk of the car? Last time I bought a Honda, the dealer said that they could only charge 2k to the card because it costs them too much. Is this true?

All dealers limit how much can be charged to a card due to the fees that the vendor has to pay. 2K or 3K is a typical limit with 5K is the highest I've heard being allowed.

Mercer -- Thanks for the referral. Looking at Northwest Honda inventory online, they don't appear to have any '08 Tourings in stock (I'm looking for an '08 Touring without PAX). Will consider talking to them, though, if I don't make progress closer to home. I'm broadening my search radius--sent quote requests to Burien, Fife, Everett and Auburn this morning. Will see what comes in. -- Berkut

I got the extended warrenty taken off phew~!!!!
They tried to give me a giant run around when I got there...after oh 4 calls to the dealer before driving the 1.5 hrs from RI. But I just calmly explained that my 4 year old would indeed be peeling the paint off the walls and how could anyone possible expect a 3 month old to wait 3 HOURS to speak with someone to clear this up (of course I said that part really LOUD so heads turned...ha) and VIOLA the "business dev." guy came right over with the cancellation form...we were out the door asap cruising home in my my first mini van!
 
Thanks to all the help here we got a good price
26,850 including all fees except tax

The dealer is Ron Bouchard's in Fitchburg, MA. I forgot to say that we live in NH, thus did not have to pay state taxes thus was able to get the 26,639 out the door without paying the MA tax. The 26500 included the destination fee and I think the 139 is the docking fee or something like that.

New 2007 Touring -is this a deal? by cxxviii128
Dec 30, 2007 (4:50 pm)

We are in Northern Michigan - we are looking at a "last day of the year" offer for a new (20 miles) 2007 Touring model for $33,000? We were looking at an EX-L, but my wife really likes the auto rear gate and memory seats (we are very different heights). Plus this is only a bit more than the EX-L's they have. The dealer admitted that they really wanted to get rid of this model, because the "ride-flat" tires are apparentlya nightmare up here in the middle of nowhere...Frankly this was the 'opening' offer (after minimal haggling) so I think they'll go lower.
 
Is this a good price? This is before tax, tags, etc. etc. I will be reading through the posts here, but given the short time frame we were hoping that someone might share their expertise. If $33K is not a 'steal', at what price should we forego a good deal onan 08 (with regular tires) and get this one?
 
Thanks for the help!

Other 'Options' on a loaded Touring? by cxxviii128
Dec 30, 2007 (5:01 pm)
Reply
Also (see our message below), are there any 'options' that we should negotiate for with a loaded Touring? Things like floormats, mud guards, or the dozens of other things that everyone expects are included and only finds out otherwise after the deal is done? What stuff is the dealer most likely to "throw in" to get a deal done?
 
Thanks!

33 is not a bad price for an R&N, lousy for a regular Touring. IIRC, the lowest R&N numbers reported here have been in the mid-32s. Push them as hard as you can tomorrow and when it seems clear that you reached their bottom line, bring up the accessory issue to close the deal.
 
The biggie (if you need them) probably would be crossbars for the roof rack. The ones that I have on my '05 are mudflaps, wheelwell trim, rubber floor mats, cargo mat, and the cargo tray (for the well behind the third seat). Take a look at an Odyssey accessory brochure for others to determine what you might need.
 
There's another issue that you might want to think about. The regular PAX tires are not the best in snow. Given that PAX tires prices vary quite a bit, I would urge you to negotiate a price that includes a set of PAX snows and have them mounted prior to delivery.
