Has anyone out there recently been able to get a dealer to do a dealer trade for a 2008 Odyssey? I'm looking for a 08 EXL with DVD (no nav), but haven't found one in my state of wisconsin. Most of the dealers say they won't do a dealer trade for an 08, but one said they would get one from Illinois. I'd like to think he will, but when everyone else says they won't it makes me skeptical.

So I finally found one in SoCal but it's a Demo model that was used by the dealership supposedly - has about 5K miles on it. Externally looks pretty clean except a little scuff on front fender, interior looks clean but not new. They said they would do 10 cents/mile which too me sound crappy ($500 off). Also, it's a white one which I don't care much for. Figuring I can get them to do 29-29.5k, would 28.5-29k sound reasonable for one with 5000 miles on it?

Replying to: dr_g (Dec 21, 2008 9:04 pm) Autotrader.com shows more than 50 2008 EX-L Odysseys within 100 miles of Newhall (just picked a random city near LA). There's a brand new 2008 Odyssey deal in there. Have you emailed ALL the dealers (even those with one or less in stock - they might be hungry enough to do a dealer trade)?

I got a quote for EX-L with RES for 26999, which would be OTD for about 29365 in Florida...it seems like a good deal. I did the bidding thing, where I had dealers bid against one another. There is still one dealer, about 75 miles away who says he will beat this price by "atleast $500" but wont give me a quote, either written or over the phone, he says I have to come it to get the pricing...is he blowing smoke...the conversations were NOT good over the phone, he was really evasive/pushy and had a shady feeling...Can he really only offer me a better "deal" in person rather than fax/email/phone? Or is he going to bring me in for a hard sell.

One reason -- he wants you in the door so he can pressure you into taking a bad deal. Personally I wouldn't waste my time as that guy sounds very shady to me.

I have been offered 35,800 + 700 (destination) for a 2009 Touring (no pax) in the Raleigh, NC area. They are out of 08's. Does this sound good? Thanks.
