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?

08 EX-L OTD $26,150 in New Hampster by pete_in_nh

Hey all-
 
Did the carpet bomb e-mail thing and then folllowed up... best I could get up here in New Hampster was $26,150 OTD which is car price plus $399 doc fee.
 
I think that's pretty good... but impressed with some of the others on here!
 
We are going to pick it up tonight... Ocean Mist metallic. Debated on the RES but then realized it was going to run like $1,500 more in cost + interest over life of car... better to buy extended warranty (online... I know..) and go aftermarket for DVD player. Does anyone know of a good aftermarket DVD unit for the Oydy? I can't seem to find much info/reviews about them.
 
Thoughts?
 
p.s. For those of you wondering... no sales tax here... .Live Free Or Die, Baby!
 
No income tax either.... gotta love New Hampster.

Thanks for the reply on the backup camera. Just got another email from a dealer that will do my target, $25,800 OTD for EXL. We decided not to take the RES and will install dual monitor on headrests later so we don't have to hear our boys fighting over it. They are 4 years apart and watch totally different movies. My wife doesn't want the headace so I'll just not take RES for now. Will go to the dealer today or tomorrow and see how much they would give us for Honda Accord 02.

Hello - Does anyone know whether this end of year clearance (3% hold-back and rebate) will continue after 09/30? I am wondering if we'll see (at least) a slightly better deal in October. Surprisingly, one of the dealers I am currently talk to (in NJ) has at least seven 2008 Tourings left in stock!!! Thanks. -MK

Buying Honda Odyssey 2008 EX-L by my_oddy

I am in the market for Honda Odyssey EX-L/RES (No Nav). (SoCal area)
I got several quotes through email. One of the dealer says they are offering $4500 below invoice on 2008. They quoted the invoice price (without RES) as 30,092 and their eprice is 25,592 (destination fee included). Edmunds quotes Invoice price for EXL as 29,166. So in sense they are truly going 3500 below invoice.
No Accessories, No financing option. Tax+DMV+tire fee etc extra.
 
eprice: $27,103 OTD: $29,551 for EX-L with RES
 
Is that a good deal? Do we expect better deals in Oct-Dec?
I want Nimbus Grey and RES which I am afraid might not be available later...Should I pull the trigger? What say guys!!!!

OK I'll bite. What the heck is the "donkey punch" method?

Your fear is valid. As time passes, it will be harder to get the color you want at the price you want to pay. I'd say pull the trigger if you are getting color of choice. As far as price goes, Take the edmunds invoice, subtract 3500 from it, then subtract 3% of MSRP (not invoice). Write that number down for both EXL and EXL with RES. Ho much less or more you pay on that number should be your measurement of how good deal did you get.
 
Dealer installed accessories is totally different game. That negotiation should be separate, or see how much are you paying for accessories on top of your target price and see if that's acceptable to you.
 
I closed the deal couple weeks ago for $100 over such a target price. No accessories. I have seen some posts where people have gotten some $300-400 below such target price.
 
Good luck.
 
The quotes you have seem to be good. WHich dealer is that, if you don't mind?

DOL007 - Hey you say you're in Oklahoma - can you share the dealer and city? I am looking for that EXL RES you are passing on and also have been looking for a bite on the $27,000 price.
