Replying to: southernhive (Sep 22, 2008 10:39 am) Consumer wants to get more charge to CC due to frequent flyer mileage or get points to redeem gifts. Dealer wants to be less possible due to they won't see the money in 30 days and CC company charges % fee to merchant. My wife was allowed only $3.5K to be charged to her CC. It seems generous for $5.0K

Replying to: southernhive (Sep 22, 2008 10:39 am) We bought a 2008 EX in northern VA last week for $23.5K OTD and planned to put $10K on our CC. However, the dealer only allowed us to pay $2.5K with our CC. We wrote a check for the rest of our down payment and financed the remainder through Honda since Honda agreed to match the rate offered by our bank.   We were surprised by the CC limit but can understand why the dealer doesn't want the CC fee cutting into their profit.

#20508 of 24350 EX-L with RES (DVD) in Denver/Boulder area by tom200 Sep 22, 2008 (2:02 pm)
Good deals are harder to come by in Denver Boulder Area. Have 6 area dealerships giving me quotes and best so far is $27950 plus tax (8.3% ). One dealership has pulled out saying they will not go lower.   I'm looking to get $3500 under invoice ($30,612) or ~$27,100 for the EX-L with RES.   Seeing much better deals on this forum. Perhaps I should buy in MD. Anyone know what it would cost to ship from MD to Colorado? Replies to this message: phatlipboardz (Sep 22, 2008 5:14 pm)

Replying to: tom200 (Sep 22, 2008 2:02 pm) I have shipped my personal cars from Boulder to Maryland and then back to Boulder when I moved. You're looking at about $1,000 and this isn't a covered carrier. Not cheap. Thought about the same thing for about a hot minute.   Looks like we are going to have to eat a higher payment. Seems silly since many folks here want AWD.

Replying to: 4my2boys (Sep 21, 2008 1:26 am) We got our Odssey tonight. $27481 OTD. The price includes cross bars and wheel locks. We got pulled into the warranty which I'm wondering if we need. The warranty was an additional $1550 (7 years/100,000). I had not researched the warranty as I had my mind made up that we would not get it. So, is the warranty worth it, is that a good price???   Thanks for the help of this forum. I feel better about our purchase - the warranty. Replies to this message: mkielm (Sep 22, 2008 7:14 pm)
#20512 of 24350 Picked Up Our EXL-RES Tonight in MD! by pacars Sep 22, 2008 (7:05 pm)
This was a different but positive buying experience. I called the dealership Friday evening. After shopping several dealers, he gave me the best offer. I called him back Saturday morning to accept the offer and put down a deposit on my credit card (which he never even processed).   Picked up the van tonight...a very pleasant experience. Here are the numbers   2008 Odyssey EXL-RES   Sale Price: $27,000 PA Tax: $1620 Prep Fee: $99 Tags: $145 OTD: $28,864   No surprises (even free wheel locks) and nice 20%+ off MSRP. Probably could've done $500 better in October, but we got the color we wanted, so I'm pleased. Well worth the 2.5 hour drive!

Replying to: 4my2boys (Sep 22, 2008 6:11 pm) CANCEL that warranty within 60 days (if you financed it they may just pay down your loan with the cancel proceeds). You can get a 7 years/100,000 ($0 deductible) Honda Care Warranty for $1020 if you really think you need it. If you bought a third party warranty CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL.   https://www.myhondawarranty.com/   Check out this forum on carspace: Honda Extended Warranties Pricing and Info   You will see an interesting article about a small RI Honda dealership that is taking on HONDA USA for the right to continue to service savy customers over the internet who want to pay cost for these contracts instead of half again or double cost - what the local dealers charge. I was offered a 7yr/80k $100 deductible from my dealer for $1495 - when I told him I might buy it from him if he matched the $725 no-deductible offer I found on the internet all he could muster was"I thought Honda shut those people down?" GREED   For anyone considering an extended warranty - strike a good deal price wise on your Odyssey, then tell them you will walk unless they sell you the Honda Care warranty at cost/match the pricing on the internet (or just buy from that great little dealership in RI over the internet - you can do so with under 6000 miles on the odometer (no, I don't own the dealership or work for them - just impressed that they are taking on the big boy (after employees of Honda encouraged them to get into the internet business Honda is now trying to shutdown via federal court))).   My long two cents. You can probably tell I am not too impressed with dealership behavior in the "finance" room.
