Hi,
I've been getting quotes from Dealers here at the NE area. The best I've got for 08 EXL&RES is 27071 (includes dest), 298 doc fee, 85 TTL.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Converting advertised lease price to purchase price by airoops

Boch in MA is advertising every EX-L with RES in stock with a MSRP of $34.4k for $258/mo for 36 mo's with 1998 down and a 54% residual. Price does not include Tax Title and Reg (assumes includes destination).
 
If you follow my math:
 
Total lease payments are $9,288 (258*36)
Down payment is $1,998
Total lease payment $11,287 (which should equal 46% of the price)
Lease b/o should then be $13,250 (Lease payments of $11,287 * (54%/46%)
So total purchase price s/b $24,537
 
Can anyone think of what else I'm missing here? This doesnt factor in lease fees which they could use to bump up the price. The only other thing I could think of is that this assumes a zero interest rate embedded in the lease, but if the interest rate was 2 or 3%, that would only lower the lease payments going against the cap cost, and thus lower the purchase price.
 
TIA for any thought and if anyone has dealt with Boch recently.

I am interested to hear the details. Did the $23400 include destination plus dealer fees, prep, etc.? I have a quote from a NJ dealer for about 24K for the EX, which includes destination, doc fees, and dealer prep. (the only extras would be tax & title). Trying to decide if I can squeeze a few more hundred out of the transaction.
 
Any thoughts?

Well.. you can extrapolate a purchase price from lease information, if you have all of the other variables... but, your example is missing way too many of them..
 
First... I wouldn't assume that $1998 is going to cover everything but tax... If an ad leaves out a lot of information, and if the price looks really low, then you should assume the worst... $595 acquisition fee? $299 doc fee? Destination charge? It can go on and on...
 
Second.. The lease buyout (or residual) is a set percentage of the MSRP.. The selling price or the total of lease payments have nothing to do with it... If the MSRP is $34,400 and the residual percentage is 54%, then the buyout is $18,576...
 
Third.. Part of your lease payment (as you noted) goes to finance charges... You'd have to know how much of it to calculate the rest of the equation..
 
You can go to the Honda Odyssey Lease Questions forum and get money factors and residuals... From there, it is a lot easier to calculate the actual selling price... Or, you could call Boch and ask them for the total amount due at signing on the lease in the ad.... Don't be shocked if it turns out to be $4000...

I'm looking to buy the EX-L from any dealer in the Boston area. I plan to pay cash with no trade and the best I'm seeing so far is 25,800 + 295 doc fee. On 8/1 "twinphoto" posted a purchase from Boch in Norwood for 25,357. Is anyone seeing anything close to that right now? I test drove the car at Boch and the salesman is horribly slow in getting back to me after originally telling me "about 25,000" while I was halfway out the door (I hadn't done my research yet and wasn't ready to buy that day). Of course he came back with a 26,700 price when I called him back. I'm now ready to buy and any input from Boston area buyers would be appreciated.

Hi, I'm also shopping for an 08 EX-L in Houston area! Got 8 quotes so far, one of which is almost identical to the one you posted on 8/12/08. That one was the 3rd highest in price on my list of emailed quotes, b/c of the unwanted add-ons.
 
Best offer so far:
Selling price: 27036
Sales tax (6.25%): 1689.75
Other fees (doc, title, lic, regis, inventory): 255
Out the door cash price: 28,981
 
At least one other dealer has offered to match or beat that price.
According to my calcs, this selling price is fairly close to their cost, so seems like a good, reasonable deal to me. Any thoughts?

Best offer so far on EX-L in Houston:
Selling price: 27036

 
If it is not financed through Honda you should be $500 lower. Try it.

Boch's promotion this week and this month has LX trim.
 
Be patient, I think they may switch promotion to EXL next week or in month of Sep. The monthly specials should be posted online by 6th or 7th day of the month.
