Invoice pricing on '09's by bobbyseal

I was out in CT this weekend in Litchfield county. I went to Torrington Honda and checked out a '09 EX-L with RES. They offered a purchase price of $31,282. MSRP was $34,480. It was kind of funny. I didn't even really ask for pricing. I just wanted to test drive and get a brochure. They salesman went back and offered to sell the car at just around invoice price.
 
In wisconsin, Zimbrick honda is offering invoice price plus $35 for any in stock honda. It's their 35th anniversary.
 
I imagine with some bargaining one could get the price down even further.

Not only this isn't a good deal, it's terrible deal!
Beside everything everyone already said (it's 2007, it's sitting around with old gas etc.)
Ask Dealer what is: dearler installed accessories, break it down for you as how much each item cost, then check to see if you can get them NEW and cheaper online and install it yourself.
Ask the dealer and push them really hard to get rid of the Doc Fee: $349.00 Never pay for something which a must have cost of doing business. You don't get charge extra at Bestbuy or gas station to have a purchase receipt. Goes the same for Car Dealer. (at least retailer don't spell it out like the dealer)
 
License Fee: what is this fee? You mean the TAG and Registration? That seems like ALOT in my book.
 
Keep in mind, no matter what the dealer says to you, you are still buying a USED car. Used Car should be priced accordingly. Check Edmunds to find out how much a used 07' Oddy is sold today?
 
Good luck, and last but not least, make sure you're both happy about this purchase, it's a 5 years long commitment...

I purchased a 2007 Ody Touring in October of last year. I wanted a specific color, black on black, and there were only 2 in FLA when I purchased. That being said, I paid about $600 more for that color combo, which was around $33.9K, which included a dealer fee of about $500. I don't remember the exact numbers, but those should be pretty darn close, and paid nothing extra aside from tax/title/etc. The MSRP on our Honda was 39,690...not sure how yours is $37,565, as I thought the Touring models were all the same?? I think you can certainly get lower than the price offered at 29,471 + a few questionable fees. If I were you I would determine if you like the 2007 versus the "refreshed" 2008. Keep in mind the 07's come with the PAX run flat tires standard on the Touring, an option that many owners have complained about in the past. If you do like the 2007, then I'd say a price around 27K including the various fees would be pretty darn good, assuming the miles support the fact it is a new car. I've owned a 2003 and 2007 and can state that although the price of the vehicle has dropped the past 5 years it still holds it's value pretty good compared to other cars/vans. In 2003 it was rated the #1 vehicle for retaining it's value in consumer reports magazine (no longer the case). We have 13K miles on our 2007 and have had no issues, just drove 2000 miles for thanksgiving and got 25 MPG going 80 MPH.
 
Good luck!

Black 2008 Odyssey EX-L (no res/no nav) by jmw3

We purchased a black 2008 odyssey ex-l last week. Here’s the breakout of what we paid:
 
$26,396 vehicle - includes locate fee (est. $150-200) plus dealer perks of free mud flaps ($150 value), free state inspections (worth a few hundred to us), and a free loaner car when serviced)
   $100 doc fee
     $94 other fees
$1,848 - 7% tax
$28,437 - otd
 
This price w/o perks basically matched what another dealer who had this vehicle in stock (same vin that was relocated!) was willing to offer us and he was calling us up to 5x/day trying to sell.
 
My experience was very similar to Hondalover12. I contacted over a dozen dealers within 100miles who had colors that I liked (per autotrader.com) as well as a couple of the dealers that others on the forum recommended. Only a few of the dealers ended up actually having a color I was interested in (black, grey, silver) in an ex-l no resi/no nav. The lowest quote I received was $25.8k – this was on a second “Thanksgiving special” e-mail from Mike Pruit in Akron. By the time I factored in the perks of the dealer we purchased from along with the add’l charges, inconvenience & potential risk I would have of bringing the vehicle from out-of state (Ohio or another) it wasn’t worth it to me to go after the lowest base price. By the way, the lowest quote I received on an Ex-l with resi was $27,180.
 
Good luck in your search!

It depends where your door is. How much is car, how much is tax, how much is dealer fee, etc.

I got a quote for the same amount. I am not sure if this is a good offer or how to proceed further. I am looking to get something within 20-21K for 2008 honda EX.
Is it even possible? if yes, how?

2007 Honda odyssey EX, 20K miles, for $18,000.00 by range1

I also have an offer for 2007 honda EX with 20K miles on it. The guy is asking for $18,000 for it. it has basic warranty on it upto 36,000 and 60,000 powertrain warranty. the van looks good but does have some minor scratches on the front and side. very minor dents. however, the interior looks a little dirty. may need cleaning. he is saying that he bought it in an auction for 18K and not selling because he needs money.
Do you guys think that it is a good price? I still have to pay tax on it though+registeration fees. let me know, I need to decide soon.
