Replying to: udahman (Apr 29, 2009 2:57 pm) If you are willing to travel to Sac, Mel Rapton was offering me $27,000. Nobody could touch that. The offer was initially for $27,3XX in email, and then I worked it to $27,000 if we went that day (this was Sunday). This was before we finalized on a color, which was even more attractive. We drove there and realized the one we wanted had been on the lot for 9 months, although it only had ~20 miles. The biggest reason we ended up not getting it was because my wife ended up not liking the color (white). And they didn't have our new color choice (dark cherry) in a plain EXL. I wonder if all of their Odys have been there a while, and thus the unbeatable price. At the end of the day for us, a few hundred dollors was worth our top color pick and an (almost) brand-new, fresh van. FYI: I first looked up every dealer's inventory online to see if they had white or red, and then called each one. I got quotes from Serramonte, Dublin, Larry Hopkins, Vacaville, Redwood City, and Mike Harvey. (In that order of best offer to worst) I'd be glad to share contacts at any of these places if you want. Hope this helps. |

Here are the prices of Odyssey EX that I received: $24,299 Livermore $24,300 Dublin $24,350 Larry Hopkins Sunnyvale $24,539 Berkeley $24,598 Fremont $24,788 Anderson Palo Alto $24,988 San Leandro $24,995 Capitol San Jose It's over $3k less than EXL if you can give up the moon roof, leather, and DVD option. I'm not sure what else.

Okay so I pulled the trigger yesterday and this is what I got from Lute Riley honda in Richardson. selling price: $27,720 (cherry red) OTD: $29,642 (6.25% tax + Title+lice..) It has the standard extras... floormats, cargo tray,door edge protector, 1 free oil change and full gas tank etc... There was only 1 with this color in my 50 mile radius(I looked at 12 dealers and none had this color). I also saw the sheet that the salesman had (it was on the lot for only 3 days), some had 240 days on it. Tarugs and atxodys, this might not be the $27k deal people are getting but for Texas, I think it is pretty good. I had such a bad experience at David Mcdavid Honda of Frisco. I was driving to Bankston Honda to do the paperwork because they were ready at OTD $29,400 for a white(they dont have a red) when the salesman at David Mcdavid Honda of Frisco called and said that he can get the red one for this price if I come in right away. I was happy but as soon as I landed in Frisco, this internet sales lady came with a $31,500 quote for red. I was stunned, then the manager came and started yelling at me about who gave you the $29,400 quote. It was pathetic, then the salesguy who called me came up and said, I never promised you the red car. I really want people who are shopping to be aware of these crooks. Very unprofessional, I just walked out. I cant find any logic to why the salesguy even called me when he cant offer the right color or the right price and then everyone starts yelling at me! Finally, we paid the extra($242) to get $29,642 at Lute Riley honda. The sales guy and general manger were great but the finance lady was a  #$%. It felt as if she wanted me to buy the entire store as an accessory along with the car (not to mention the 3.99% as opposed to 3.9%...beware!). The Mrs is very happy with the new car. It looks pretty big in the garage compared to her Infiniti M35. I cant thank you all enough for this great blog. Good luck to ya all! |
