UDahman: Mechanically, there is probably no difference in a car that has been sitting on the lot a long time. I think most of it is probably cosmetic. For example, if a car has been on the lot since September, it's gone through a winter (lots of rain, potential hail), and it's gone through a lot of people climbing in and out of it, possibly test driving it, and just messing with it.
 
For example, the one that we passed on had a few scratches on the finish of the consol. These were the kind of scratches that couldn't be taken out. Also, the interior was just much dirtier overall, with a lot of stains that would probably be tough to get out as well (looked like some oil, grease from bottom of shoes).
 
But yes, I would think the longer dealers have cars that sit there, the better price you can negotiate. The dealer just wants to move the cars since they pay monthly to have them sit there.
 
Again, if you don't mind the drive, call them up first and get the numbers down (make sure they email you price and OTD price so you can print out and bring with you), and then take a trip this weekend to Sac...it's not too far if you know what's waiting for you! And the deal is worth the trip!
 
Or, you can go to Stevens Creek and try to see if he'll sell you a white (they had one) for $27,500. That was the offer I got from them.
 
Let me know if I can be of any more help.

2009 Odyssey EX-L in Orlando, FL Area by mismith

Well...great forums here everyone! I have been a lurker for years.
 
Going today to pick up an 09 Ocean Mist EX-L from Courtesy Honda in Sanford FL (just north of Orlando).
 
Submitted a quote request from Edmunds and got 5 competing quotes, Courtesy's being the best "real" OTD quote and it was the first quote to arrive in my inbox.
 
Internet guys seems nice, hopefully the deals remains as quoted once we get on site later today.
 
Will provide update on price and experience shortly.

I did not get an EX pricing from them. But usually they give you a good price.

True Car Pricing by udahman

If you go to this link, it shows that dealer cost for the EXL is $27190. If you click on the "Table" tab, it does not factor in the incentive. So when you subtract the $2500 cash incentive they are getting, the dealer cost goes down to $24,690. If that info is correct, I think we should be able to get a price under $27,000.

Honda Odyssey EX-L w/ RES - Chicagoland by arippen

Just about to pull the trigger on a EX-L w/ RES. Best price I've been quoted is $27,781. Has anyone heard/seen/received something better?
 
Is there any reason to wait until late in May to buy the car? Anyone aware of any new incentives coming out?
 
Thanks!

I saw somewhere on this board that Honda is announcing incentives in May. I will wait a few more days.

A dealer told me that Honda does not offer dealer installed DVD system and if you want one it has to be an aftermarket DVD system ($995-$1095). Is that true? Hard to believe Honda does not offer a DVD system.

Costco Auto Buying Program Sucks in Northern Va! by lyao

Costco Auto Buying Program is b.s. It's sound like a scam to me! The Honda Company that Costco dealt with in my area is Fairfax Honda. The rep there so far had not replied to me yet. When I called the dealer, none of the reps was there. The rep who answered the phone called did not even want to give me a price quote for Honda Odyssey EXL with Navi/dvd or Touring without PAX. He kept on telling me to show in person in order to get the best price quote. It sounds like a trap! All they wanna do is trying to keep you there all day and force you to buy with their prices (so that you can't go to any other dealer and compared)! Very disappointed!
I would give the Fairfax Honda Dealer, Fairfax, VA a grading of 1 (if 1 is the lowest rating and 10 is the highest rating for Sales Services).

If you are in the curve plot and put your mouse over the "actual dealer cost" price of $27190 is says that this already includes "holdbacks and applicable dealer incentives." The $2500 falls into this category, so it is already accounted for. It also says these figures are "estimated," whatever that means. Still seems like invoice minus the $2500 minus the 2% holdback minus several hundred additional $$$ - in line with most of the prices posted here.
