Great forum - allowed me to pull the trigger faster than I expected to. Got what looks to be great deal from VIP Honda, North Plainfield, NJ from MC (great guy! - really knows cars) 30803 price w/ the 2.9% Financing, would be $1000 less Cash price. 1195 for 120k/8 yr warranty (thanks again to a post) 31998 total, went out the door with 635 destination 2284.31 nj sales tax 7.50 nj tire fee 366.00 reg/title 299.00 doc fee 35589.81 out the door but the most amazing thing was the sales process; simply got the car, let us take a pair of test drives, came back in, would not budge from the above price, and we did the deal - could have taken less than an hour if we wanted to. The F&I guy didn't even try to sell us an alarm system, and only blinked once when I asked him to reduce the warranty to what I ended up paying. No visits to the manager, no searching the lot for the car (they keep all their Odyssey's together). Perhaps they wanted to get me out the door quickly on April 30th, but it was great. Got in after 7pm, and was driving home before 10pm. This is way different than what I went through a few days before at Planet Honda, who took me through the lot for an hour looking for a car that I'm sure they knew was not there. Then, after finding it "coming in" took a deposit for about the same price, but then on the sheet conveniently forget to figure in the destination charge, or that the price was good with the 2.9%, and added back in the $200 etching. And of course, put in the car would sell "as equipped" I saw many $895 bluetooth add-ins on a lot of EX-L's on their lot. |

Can anyone pls advise if the published invoice found in the internet is accurate? Do the dealers have more than 1 invoice? Is this the same invoice if you pay a few hundred dollars to Edmunds, Autobytel, etc.? Also, can anyone pls confirm the fees and w/c ones are non-negotiable? I'm in the SF Bay Area (CA) and ready to buy but research may be inaccurate. Looks like invoice postings vary between states and forumers? Selecting either dark cherry pearl (color extra?), ocean mist metallic, or baltic blue pearl. Is the calculation below correct? Pls let me know of any dealers that gave good deals. Appreciate your advises/help. invoice - 32,419 dest - 635 33,054 tax (8.75) 2,892 35,946 ADD or SUBTRACT FEES doc fee ? ca emission fee ? color adjustment ? title/license (dmv registration) ? add dealer markup ? regional adjustmnt ? tire tax ? tag transfer ? eec file ? LESS non-negotiable? dlr holdback 991 factory to dlr incentive - 2,000 FINAL COST - ?

Did anyone else get the door edge guards? We got it and it looks like scotch tape. Is this what it's suppose to be?

Replying to: derrickson (May 01, 2008 5:41 pm) Even though the cash-to-dealer incentive has NOT changed from last month (April), a local dealer here in Florida is now willing to go nearly $1000 lower on his best price after weeks of hounding me (see my previous post above for details). So perhaps the holdback has increased.

I was wondering if it was worth buying the Consumer Reports Odyssey report. I requested quotes via cars.com the other day and they've been emailing me already. I've got a few quotes now. Some give detailed quotes and one just threw out a number with no explanation. Oddly, I think the first place we went to is still the lowest but I want him to go lower. I used Costco's auto buying program and for the RES + NAV package it's $300 over invoice. I think they can do better. Is it at all possible to talk them into offering the cash rebate AND special financing? I figure I tell them if they give me both I'm signing immediately (after agreeing on price). Thanks.
