Just got revised quote on cash purchase:
30,589 + tax + $500 in fees (title, license, doc) on a red one
or
29,789 + tax + $500 in fees on silver one sitting on the lot for a few weeks.
 
Good?

ifly3d, sorry I can not answer the question for you. But have a new question for you and the rest.
 
Wondering why would they discount so much for a car just for sitting in the lot for few weeks. Obvious answer is it may have been test driven more, sitting outside in the harsh weather more. Are there any other reasons?
 
How do you find out how long it has been sitting on the lot.
 
Regards
Andy

Oh boy! what a price. Best I have seen in many days! $26,094 OTD. How did you strike this deal?

Thanks to another user on this discussion board, we bought our Odyssey yesterday. We got a white, EXL (no RES no NAV--we'll do after market) for $26,094 which included destination. Taxes and fees were $1800 (we live in No. Cal and have the highest tax rate at 9.75%).
  
Dealer was Spreen Honda in Loma Linda, CA. Very happy with the transaction. Lowest price we could find in the bay area was $27,790 (or so) so we saved quite a bit of money.

To get around this non-standardized way of representing costs, I always asked for an itemized OTD cost in the emails I sent with the following template -
price = ?
freight = ?
proc/doc fee = ?
accesories = ? (what are the aalready installed = ?)
any other fee = ?
licensing = ?
tax = ?
 
This worked fine for me. If your area has some other additional well known charges/expenses you can add these. I also maintained a spreadsheet where I entered all the info from the dealers and sorted it based on the price.

$30,500-$30,800 quotes I got from quite a few dealers in MD. Some of them did not even have a big inventory (e.g. one had 2 and another 3). Maybe they get some money back from Honda if the vehicle sits on the lot for more than sometime. In my case, they did not make any other money because I did not trade in, nor did dealer financing. They even matched the Honda Care warranty (8 yrs/120k mile) online price of $1235 from Saccucci Honda. They said they had to show a profit of atleast $1 as $1235 was the cost price (which it is). So, gave it for $1236.
I too do not understand the economics of it

Hi Spamnot,
 
You're absolutely right! I got a feedback like this from Honda of Tysons:
No one! Honda definitely won't sell you this cheap! You might wanna consider..a used one instead! In fact, we sold out for this particular model: EXL RN. It's in limited stocks now!
 
So what? I still be able to get it OTD for $31880 including installed pinstripe, wheel locks! Including free lifetime oil changes and 15% off lifetime schedule maintenance wtih that! I even emailed them: I'm going to buy the minivan now......
 
So, did you buy the EXL RN yet? I love the car so much that I drive everyday now with my kids!

cjdal ,
 
$26094 includes only destination and not tax/fees correct? Or $26,094 is OTD price includes everything for your 09 EXL?
 
thanks

... $35000 plus TTL. Granted the dealer didn't pad the fees so OTD is around $38450 (Orange Cty Southern CA tax rate 8.75%, ouch).
 
No one among the 12 dealerships I contacted had a white EXL Nav RES if you can believe it, so ended up getting a Touring instead.
 
After deal, another dealer came thru' w/ a $34900 plus TTL but too late.
 
Car was manufactured 3/09. New.
 
I like it a lot.
