Hi, I am in Boulder area and new to this group.
 
Could you tell me the quote you got for EXL or EXL-RES and which dealership you are going to buy? It would be great. I have been very frustrated to get the popular price which those people got in other state, e.g EXL for $25,3000 and EXL-RES for $26,600.
 
My best quote of EXL-RES is $28,092, plus tax only from Fisher Honda. I haven't sit down to dig out what else I have to pay. I am very dispointed by Burt-Kuni Honda. I only got a phone call from "Go Honda" which they are willing to give the price with the invoice price-$31,282 (including destination charge) minus $3,500, plus the dealer handling fee ($499).
 
There are still a lot of 2008 Odyssey on the lot, I have no idea why the Colorado dealers still want to sell the vans with higher price than other state.
 
Thanks!
 
Jian

I bought mine from Honda Grand in Elmhurst,Illinois on 09/21/2008
 
Sale Price: $28700
Doc Fee: $150.00
Tax: $2345.
New Plates: 143.00
OTD: $31,338.00
 
But it was not on APHC special 2.99 financing , also finance guy tricked me and sold extended 7/100k/0Ded warranty for $1885 (which i know is a ripoff). I Read the fine prints and it has 60 day cancellation time period. I am looking into online warranty but not sure which one to get. Dealer actually warned me of buying any warranties other than the dealer, mentioning that Honda will not honor it if they win the class action lawsuit. Is that True?
 
Also he added $3500 in price cost adding taxes on that which I argued. so the taxes little went up to $200. There is always a Catch 22 with these guys no matter what you do.

I got the SAME EXACT QUOTE from fisher a month ago plus the 1,000 since the manufacturer cash was 2,500 at that time. 29,090 plus their stupid dealer handling fee and their documentation fee's (dont forget to ask bout them). I've also noticed that the Colorado dealers invoice price is higher that the Edmund's invoice price. They must not be that desperate around here, one dealer told me; "why should we give you the holdback!" ; that was Mile-High.
 
Burt-Kuni would not deal with me at all. They gave me some crappy price and told me that that was the best he could do.. I gave them a bad review when honda wanted feedback.
 
I settled with Honda of Greeley on 08-11-08, they sold me the van EXL-RES for 29,000 (including their dealer prep and doc fees) + tax. I had at least four dealers around the same ballpark but only Greeley would include their prep and docs fees in the selling price. Over all it was a good experience. I haggled over email and phone.
 
Good Luck

EX L NAV/RES without finance by desertkev
Sep 24, 2008 (3:50 am)
Reply
MSRP 36554
Price 29554
+ txs, doc fee etc.
 
I told the dealer i saw the prices people were paying and they were ready to deal. But they wouldn't give the 0.9 or 2.9 financing. But I was going to put 12k down, so the financing was not a better deal for the 36 month plan. The deal breaker came when I introduced my 02 MDX for a trade (after I said I had no trade) and they only wanted to give me 7500 for a super clean MDX. We'll see if they come back with a better offer. Does anyone know if the touring rides better than the EXL?

Frontier in Longmont quoted 26,933 for an EX-L no res/nav. This includes everything except for tax. They rolled everything into the final purchase price. Very low pressure salesman (I can give you his contact if you want), and they too have plenty left on the lot. Don't know what color you are looking for, but I am sure they have it.
 
It is hard seeing other folks on the east getting these killer deals. I just try to look at it as I am getting ~20% off MSRP. I think it's the only way I can feel good about it. I used to own hondas and haven't ever seen deals like this from them in the past.
 
Also, there is a great post on here about the extended warranty. Don't get it from the dealer unless they can match the price. http://www.myhondawarranty.com/

Those are good prices. I posted earlier this week regarding my purchase of a EXL-Res from Continental Honda. Yes in Illinois you are taxed on the 3500 incentive. It varies from state to state.
Now with regards to the OTD price, I find it a little high even taking into the slightly higher tax rate of cook county residents. I paid 7.25% so the difference should only be around ~400 but your OTD price for the RES model is about ~1300 over my OTD price. What other crap are they adding to the total?

"It is hard seeing other folks on the east getting these killer deals."
 
Almost 27k for that car is too much IMO. I paid $25k (inclusive of dest & proc. fee)+TTL for an EXL. I can't believe that I was that good about it. But I did follow the donkey punch method.
 
Did you "donkey punch" the dealers? If not, search for "donkey punch" and follow it. I believe that you should be able to get that price down to no higher than 25.5k.

Wife wants just EXL. I want EXL RES. So, can't decide yet. My target OTD without TTL is $25,800 for EXL and $27,000 EXL-RES. My best offer comes from a dealer who will do $200 more for each target. So it's $26,000 EXL and $27,200 EXL RES. They got the Silver color I want. They want me to make decision today if I want that price but I think I'm going to stick with my target. No accessories or add-on to the van. What do you guys think?
Does EXL and EXL RES come with Backup Camera? Is the only different $1200 I'm paying for RES is for the DVD feature? BTW, I'm in Oklahoma. Thanks.

That EXL price is about on target with the quote I got. The price I stated before was with everything rolled in except the taxes.
 
The EX-L without Nav/Res comes with the backup camera. I am not into paying for the extra retail price on the entertainment. I can get this installed aftermarket with a brand that I like with more features and at a place that won't void my warranty.

Yes,
 
I did the donkey punch. Right in the smacker.
 
I received quite a few quotes and most of them were pretty close to each other. I also ran the deal through a broker/friend and he confirmed that this is a good deal for the area. I am seeing these market adjustments in Colorado on many makes/models. I have looked at just about everything from a Mazda5, SUVs and now minivans.
 
I am getting ready to deal in the next day or so. Anyone want to go together and give them a real donkey punch to get a better deal?
