Here's my quick story from the week-end.. Here in NC I offered 30.3k for ODY 08 with res and nav OTD. And I said to the salesmen, throw in "two extra headphones(we have 4 kids)." Salesmen agreed. I came back the next day and the 2 extra headphones were off the table. Conveniently "forgotten." After about a half hour of waiting, the salesmen comes back with a young twenty-something manager. He sits down at the table with me and says, "Meet me half way. I pay for one headphone, you pay one at cost. $64." I said, "the salesmen already said two." "Well, I understand that, but I can barely give you the car as it is. You can go across the street and buy an 07 used one close to this price." I said, "Then the used ones aren't that good of a deal." "This price is my best price." "I understand," I said. "But I don't think I'm going to budge on this. I'm nervous as it is. If one of the big three goes under I think there's going to be some fire sales in the next few months and I'll be kicking myself." "Won't happen. Prices won't drop. Look what happened when Daewoo went under? Cars sold for the same prices but without a warranty." I didn't say anything because I don't know anything about Daewoo. ""You're already 4k under what I should be selling this car for," said the manager. "I must stick with this price." Out of the corner of my eye I saw the salesmen wince a little at this. The salesmen was much older than the manager and alot smoother and I sort of half wondered if they were both salesmen running a little game but I don't know. I can't believe what I did. I had no hard feelings but I said to them, "It's the principal." And I walked off the lot over 64 bucks. They didn't try and stop me and they haven't called back so the good part is, I think I found the rock bottom absolute price for an 08 Honda with res and nav. Bad part is, we're still driving a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan and kids and wife are about to lynch me.

Replying to: ethanssky (Nov 13, 2008 11:02 am) Potamkin Honda in NY and Faulkner Honda in PA Both had a few listed on their website, but I don't know how "Good" these dealers are. Potamkin Honda Inventory Listing Faulkner Honda Inventory Listing I think the slate green also has a 'dark' interior, though not sure if its gray or olive. The 'ivory' looks more like tan.

I don't know much about Boch Honda in MA, are willing to sell an EXL at 25107 + 298 doc fee, plus tax, title, etc. They have around 7 of them, all different colors. I don't know if this is one of the typical bait and switch.
