Does anyone know what your credit score needs to be to qualify for the 3.9% financing?

EXL-R&N In Indiana by soccermomaw

Purchased Honda Odyssey EXL-Res & Navi in Slate Metallic Green w/ Gray interior. Bob Rohrman, West Lafayette. John Mercer was my salesperson (awesome). The Finance Guy - pay close attention.
 
$30,850 (inc. destination charge, mud guards, all weather floor mats & cargo tray). Does not include TTL
 
Couldn't find any of the sweet deals mentioned on this forum from the east & west coasts. 3..9% financing and $2500 & 2% dealer incentives good thru 7/6.
 
Anticipate the prices will drop as gas prices increases and closer to 2010.

Hi, fellow Louisianian!
 
Am I correct in assuming you got an EX-L with no RES? Or did you get the EX-L with RES for under $30,000 before TT&L?!
 
We're also in LA, in Acadiana,so you may have a better perspective for us in regards to what we're looking at - but I SURE would appreciate help from everyone else who wants to chime in!
 
Edmunds' TMV/ "what others are paying" price for the EX-L with RES we're looking at is $30,117 (which includes a regional adjustment of -$395, a color adj. (slate green) of -$140 and an + of the destination charge $670). We got an offer from a dealer for $30,485, so I was initially excited - until I got home and saw that some people posting in this forum got the EX-L + RES + NAVI for under $30K!!
 
HOW did you guys do that!?!?!?!?! I'd love the navi, but SO don't want to pay and extra $2K for it! I'd be very happy getting the EX-L + RES as long as we're getting the best deal we can.
 
I know there's a dealer incentive of $2500 which is how the EX-L drops from $32,151 invoice to $30,117, but some people are getting the NAVI for free?
 
To top it off, we're considering trading in our '05 EX (no leather, no dvd), but are only going to get $11,000 if we do (Edmunds says we should get $14,000 trade in; KBB says $11,900), so we're taking a hit on that, too, but are still considering it. From what I understand, w/8.5% tax, we'd pay $33,094 w/o trade-in for the EX-L + RES (INCLUDING the tax and destination, but not the title and whatever else we'd have to pay) OR $21,149 (incl. tax + destination but not title and whatever else) if we trade in the '05.
 
I'm usually a competant human being, I swear. But this is making me crazy - PLEASE HELP!!! I SO appreciate it!
 
-Sarah

Hi bigdadi118,
 
I assumed these prices only included the destination. They did not include other fees & TTL. Right?

Well...they told us that the credit score needs to be over 725 to get the 3.9%....that doesnt seem right...does anyone have a different experience. I feel like they are trying to make up some money from us since they accepted a low offer on the vehicle.

Pulled the trigger on a 09 EXL-RES 05/30/09 by rajsaha

Thanks to all who posted their experiences online. Finally pulled the trigger after months of research using this board on a 09 EXL-RES Slate Green Mettallic/Olive Interior yesterday 05/30 - dealing at the end of the month was helpful for sure in the deal.
This was in the twin cities of Minneapolis/St.Paul - MN, and the dealer was Buerkle Honda. Negotiated using the donkeypunch method initially on an EXL-RES/NAV ahead of time, and got quotes from 4 dealers. Initial lowest was from Walser 31099, but that was on units that were in stock for more than 120 days - aka only 2 color choices. Countered with this lowest with the other 3, and Buerkle came back with 30091 on any in stock model - aka all color choices. Wife chose to go for just an EXL-RES instead when we checked out the vans in person, and Buerkle gave 29311 including dest + titles/tax etc.... This was by far the lowest I've seen in the twin cities area. Ended up being Invoice - 2500 - 470 odd of holdback per my calculations.
Did not go for AHFC financing although was approved, as they created problems, due to our non-resident immigration status. So wen't for financing outside of AHFC. Got 5.35, which isn't bad, but will look around and try to refi soon.
Overall was a good experience, except that it took 5 hours to finish all the paperwork - for which they took off 100.00 of the sales price to make it 29211.
Traded in our old 01 Ody EK with 92.2 K on the odo. Got 4800 for it, which is 200 below the trade in value on KBB for good condition, and was happy with that. I could have sold it for more privately, but didn't wan't to go thru the hassle for a few hundred more bucks.
 
The Internet sales mgr at Buerkle (sorry cannot post the name here)- very professional and straightforward, would recommend highly to anyone.
Very happy with the van.
 
Other than the long wait to close the deal at the dealership, overall a good experience.
 
P.S. Walser did offer free oil changes and car washes for life. This wasn't apealing to me as we don't live within a 10 mile range of any Walser dealership, and don't travel often to where their dealerships are located, so didn't go with Walser. Moreover I do oil changes myself on our cars.
 
Good luck to everyone shopping for a car, this is probably if not the best, one of the best times to buy.
Also thanks to everyone for posting their experiences here, very helpful. I cannot imagine how anyone else would buy a car anytime, without using this forum or doing research online.
