Invoice minus incentive minus holdback.... That is where I would start.. I doubt the employee price will mean anything, if it even applies.. regards, kyfdx |

I've seen this question posted, but no one has responded so far. The incentive right now is $3500 and it ends 9/30. What are the chances that there will be an even better incentive for the 2008 models in October? After all, Oct is only 6 days away and from what I've seen there are still plenty of 2008 Odyssey's on the lots. Thanks.

That's why you ask for it itemized penny by penny before you walk into the dealership to make sure you can compare accross dealerships. When I was working my deal, I found out (just like you did by backing out the numbers), that the OTD was being figured on a price that was $100 higher than the quoted price. It was an honest mistake, but we fixed it. Also, doc fees can vary from dealer to dealer - some states regultae the fee and it is fixed at a certain amount. Again, that's why you get it itemized, penny by penny. You were 100% right to demand an OTD price over the phone or email. And in this market, don't pay extra for the dealer installed accessories that are already on the car. |

I bet you'll save at least $1500 if you did that. Anytime you trade in you're leaving thousands of dollars on the table. |

Replying to: zgeist (Sep 25, 2008 11:25 am) Hopefully I am not shooting myself in the foot here, but I started becoming unsure of waiting for "better" incentives. I didn't jump on the Nissan deal that ended this month and lost out on 10,500 off sticker price. Of course there aren't that many 08 Quests out there like odys, but I just don't want to take that chance. A few hundred bucks either way isn't going to kill me. The dealership that I am dealing with is basically giving me "dealer cash" of 2,500 on top of the 3,500, but quite frankly, I just see this as they are starting with invoice, and the 3,500 is coming off of that. No where on my buyer's agreement do I see 2,500 dealer cash. I am pulling the trigger tonight. I have been scouring this and all other forums for months. I am tired and I just need to commit. |
