Hi pp ng2,
 
Give me your email instead.
By purchasing in Bethesda, MD, you get free lifetime oil changes for your minivan.
Thanks!

Hi md09,
 
The model I bought 2009 Odyssey EXL RN (sterling grey/grey). Only 1 mile at dealership, when stepped out the dealership, only got 2 miles on it!
 
Tell me your OTD price (including taxes, fees, options if any) for EXL RN or Touring without PAX.
Give me your email and I'll tell you more detail info. Thanks!

Finally got my 2009 Touring without PAX in Texas! by minivanmom09

Hi All,
 
Thanks to everyone on this board for the invaluable information! I had been shopping for my new Odyssey for over a month, but had run into inventory problems here in Texas for the Touring models without PAX. I wanted a Black/Black Touring and there ended up only being 3 in the entire state with only one dealer that had one on order. I contacted (via email) dealers all over the entire state, but concentrated mostly in the DFW, Austin, San Antonio, and Houston areas.
 
I had a lot of difficulty negotiating to get anywhere near the prices that many of you have gotten back East, but in the end was very happy with the deal I got. Like I said it took me over a month of going back and forth with multiple dealers to find somebody that was willing to negotiate. I even considered getting a different color, but the dealers wouldn't budge on the prices and I didn't want to settle for a color that wasn't my first choice. The EXL + NAV/RES is a great vehicle as well, but the memory seats and black leather interior were a must have for us, so that only left us the Touring model.
 
We ended up buying from Fernandez Honda in San Antonio and had a smooth buying process. We live in Austin, so it wasn't a far drive. Before we agreed to drive down over Memorial weekend, I asked for a buyers order (signed by the manager) that stated the agreed upon sales price and the breakdown of all fees and TT&L with a total OTD price. Also got the loan application completed and faxed back to them ahead of time. Doing all of this saved us a good bit of time once we got to the dealer. Total time took us a little over an hour - not too bad!
 
The business manager who handled our financing actually got us a slightly better rate than the 3.9% that AHFC was offering through a local Texas credit union - 3.5%. Not a huge difference, but we saw no reason not to take advantage of it. We declined all the extra coverages including the Honda Care (their price for the 6year/80,000 was $1200), but we may still look at purchasing an extended warranty through one of the dealers online that have been mentioned in this forum...
 
Here's the numbers:
 
Sales Price = $34,700
Sales Tax (6.25%) = $2168.75
Inventory Tax = $76.34
Title/Licensing/Inspection = $136.91
Doc Fee = $50
OTD = $37132.00
 
Thanks again and best of luck to those of you still searching for the best deal (especially if you are in Texas!).

Great deal. What is the name of the credit union that gave 3.5%?
Thanks!

Hi Lyao, if you don't mind sharing info on where you got this excellent deal you can reach me at siennaorodyssey gmail dot com . I also live in MD and am looking at the EXL with NAV and RES best price I have so far is ~32,800 OTD, so your price is quite a bit of savings!
 
thanks!

Got my EXL! by bornintx

I am also a Texas shopper and VERY VERY envious of the deals being found on the East and West coasts!!!! No deals like that around here (at least that I could find at the 9 dealerships I talked to!). Also, I had a trade, so I needed to do it all as local as possible so we just shopped San Antonio, Austin, San Marcos, etc.
 
Final deal:
 
Gillman Honda on IH35 in Selma (I also spoke with Fernandez Honda and they seemed nice, honest and ready to deal, but they did not have the color I wanted).
 
EXL in Black, with window tint (value of tint I'm guessing was 200-ish???)
 
$28,600 sales price including destination
+$50 doc fee
+$55.16 dealer inventory tax
+$132.55 title/licensing/inspection
 
I had a trade so my tax was only based on the difference between it and the new vehicle.
 
Short of driving to New Jersey or California, I think this is the best I could do - and I love my new van!
