Thanks, Brian. We are looking to purchase today in Texas we are central so going to Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin is not out of the question for us. We are looking at an EXL or EXLw/Nav (if price is right). I bought the New Car Consumer Reports and it just showed invoice and holdback...it didn't ever reference the potential Honda Financing ($500).
 
I've done the internet route the last few weeks and it really has been painful as most don't want to provide #'s. I've done the phone thing in the past but have always had a firm number to go with. Now I'm trying to come up with an vehicle and an OTD price to go forth with.
 
I searched for your buy by phone message but can't seem to locate it. I did get the information on the buyers orders you left in the Accord forum... Great Information! In addition you seem to have good information on dealerships.
 
Any suggestions on Texas pricing and good dealerships?
 
Your help is much appreciated. Reviewing the threads I know you are a good ambassador for this site!

I got good feed back on this dealer that i listed first. Call all of them by phone and make your best deal. i"m not familiar with Oddessey pricing. Looks like there is no incentives right now.. Start at 1000 below dealers invoice tell all dealers if they meet your price you will buy that moment... and secure with a refundable credit card deposit. Speak only to every dealers Internet Manager to avoid i dont know if we could do that price. Your conversation should be no more than 5 mins with each dealer. Your only talks are about price with your make and model nothing else Price, price, price... SO that being said its.......... Meet my price .........If not give me your closet price to my price then tell dealer you are moving on... every dealer that says no tell them call you if he has a change of heart . Go down the line call about 20 dealerships and i'm sure you will find a great price. Most likely you will recall one of the previous dealerships with there price... Remember doc fee's are negotiable try to get them removed or reduced. always ask every dealership what there doc fee's are and any other OTD fee's besides your States taxes . I use a big pad so i miss nothing on pricing from dealer to dealer.
 
Freeman honda....in dallas
Frank Kent............Irving
David Mcdavid........Arliington
Kent Adams...........Dallas
 
any other help give a yell

Hi All,
 
    Made my puchase on the 2013 Touring Elite yesterday for $39,900 (including destination). Also negotiated 10% discount on the added accessories. Thank everyone on this forum for their OTD price as it help with the negotiation as it helped to know how much people were being charged by different dealers.

#29547 of 30050 Bought an Ody EX-L (without RES/NAV) - Texas by tiruvan

Dec 30, 2012 (8:05 am)

We bought a 2013 Ody EXL (no RES/NAV) on 12/29.
 
Houston area - Shawn Rahimi Honda of Spring quoted $34,400. We drove for 3+ hours to Spring, TX and bought the car from him. I highly recommend him as he kept his word and was very cheerful and professional even on a very busy day.
 
Here's the split:
Invoice (incl. dest. fee) = $32,053 (TMV is $33,856 / Truecar target price is $33,634)
Doc. Fee = $125
Inv. Tax = $87
Gov. Fees = $125
Sales Tax = $2003
-------------------------------------------
OTD ~ $34,400
 
Here is my experience (in case you are interested). All prices are OTD.
 
I live in Austin, TX and we sent for quotes locally and from San Antonio, Dallas metro and Houston metro.
 
Austin, TX - First Texas had a no haggle price of $36,200 (they don't get the no haggle concept), Howdy Honda never bothered to reply and Ken Shipp at Round Rock Honda quoted $35,650. So Ken was the only one even willing to deal in Austin.
 
San Antonio, TX - Tony Sanchez at Fernandez Honda quoted $35,000.
 
Dallas area - They wanted to me come test drive and talk to them
 
WARNING: Don't take quotes from Naina Nanjua Honda Cars of Katy (Houston suburbs) too seriously. They are super low but when you go there she will hand you over to "her manager", Ben Gazi. He is the salesman you DON'T want to do business with. He tried restarting the negotiation process from scratch saying Naina's quote doesn't mean anything since she is just a consultant. This comes after driving 3+ hours to their dealership. We walked out immediately.

#29549 of 30050 Dealers in Texas by bbj77

Dec 30, 2012 (1:17 pm)

For those looking in Texas, I purchased from Benson Honda in San Antonio a week or two ago. 2013 Touring with the roof rails crossbars and trailer package added on. I live in southwest Texas so after looking at Laredo, San Angelo, San Antonio, and Houston, Benson in San Antonio was where we went. I was going to buy from McDavid Honda in Houston as they were the best price overall but 3 hours longer drive than San Antonio who was within $200. I did all my negotiation and contact over email to each dealership. I emailed every dealer in the cities I listed and the best price and easiest ones to work with were Benson in San Antonio, Gillman in San Antonio and McDavid in Houston. A lot of the other dealers gave me the run around, would not be upfront over email about dealer add ons and out the door price, or refused to go lower on their price. I'll pass on the salesman I worked with if anyone is interested. Good luck!

Hey Mndriver, are you talking about CRV EXL or Odyssey EXL? Your subject line says CRV-EXL.
