Just wanted to thank all those that post here. This forum helped me get a reasonable, if not great price. Thought I would pass my experience on to those of you who want a hassle-free experience. They had me in and out in 1 1/2 hours (best part) 2008 Slate Green Odyssey EX-L w/DVD, bluetooth and rear "pro-pack" tray for $27,500 +TTL  3.9% for 5 years. Doc fee $45. There are only about 10 left within 50 miles of where I live. This was the lowest anyone would go within that area. Galpin Honda, Mission Hills, CA, internet sales department |

Has anyone purchased a 08 or 09 Odyssey Touring around DC and got a good deal? I asked several internet prices in VA and MD and the best I got was $35,700 for a 2009 Honda Odyssey Touring RES & NAV. That seems a good deal. I am wondering if i could get a better deal by buying around Thanksgiving and at the end of the month. Any idea

Been watching the board for awhile and finally bought one last week. The sales woman I dealt with was fantastic. I bought from Midlands Honda in Columbia, SC. Last I checked they still had over 20 '08's still sitting on the lot and they haven't moved much in the last 3 months. Anyway, here is my deal. I got it with no haggling, may have done better if I had wanted to go through the 1-2 hour haggle process. Instead, I went in and gave them a price and said that was it, and they accepted. It took about 10 minutes. 2008 EX-L (Nimbus Gray) Base Price: $25,200 Doc Fee: $499 Dealer Installed Junk: was around $300 I think. So, OTD (minus taxes, which in SC is only $300) I paid right at $26K I also got the special Honda financing. Couple things to help with your Honda shopping. To get the special financing you have to have a Transunion score of 710 or higher. Just go to myfico.com and pull your Tranunion score (Honda Finance only uses Transunion). It cost about $12 (just for your TransUnion score) but it will let you know if you are going to get the special financing or not. Also, don't fall for the warranty crap they try to sell you in the finance room. Go to myhondawarranty.com It's a dealership out of Rhode Island who sells the same Honda warranty your dealership is going to sell. I got a 6yr 100k warranty for $690 through them. The dealership wanted almost $2k until I showed them my print out from this website. They then dropped to $820 but that is the lowest I they would go, I just ordered from the RI dealership and saved the $130. Other than finance guys, which are always a pain, the deal was smooth and pretty much the best experience buying a car I've had. I asked my sales woman if I could share her name and my price on here and she agreed. So, it was Midlands Honda in Columbia, SC. Her name is Laura Glass. She will work hard for you. She gave us her personal cell phone number, she has offered us rides, she even went in the back and helped the detail guy who was going slow, so that I wouldn't have to wait as long. I came back a couple of days later to pick some stuff up and when I went outside she was washing my windows and wiping the car down. In a day when car salesmen just stand around looking for the next deal, it was refreshing to come across someone who remembers the value of hard work. Laura earned herself a life long customer. By they way, the van is great. My wife loves it. If you have any questions, let me know. You can contact me at stackman97 at yahoo dot com.

Finally got 08 Odyssey EX-L w/RES at 27376 including dest charge. Tax 7.75% for CA SJ county. Got 1.9% rate. my score was over 710 so good deal.. Thanks for everyone who posted here. I was going to get it from Carsdirect and they asked 28700... Dealer was Hond of Ockland, CA. I had 2006 Odyssey LX and trade in.. trade in was worst price but getting new car with good price so... They are selling new 2008 LX for 19000 and i got my trade at 13500.. (my rear bumper needed to be fixed so not bad deal but not great deal either.) |

Replying to: erick830 (Nov 22, 2008 8:31 pm) That sounds like a good deal. In the bay area, the lowest that I have seen is 31600+TTL. will wait for Thanksgiving or Christmast to see if the dealers that I have contacted will offer any lower. |
