#51 of 24381 Honest Dealer in AZ? (dmathews3) by dlafferty Sep 19, 2000 (12:47 am)
I didn't say it was a fair deal or even an honorable deal. But the dealer told me up front what it would cost, admitted that they were charging me more for the extras than they would cost individually, and they have stuck with their agreement. That meets my definition of honest. Greedy? Sure. Price Gouging? No doubt. But not dishonest. Daryl

#53 of 24381 '01 GG EX available mid October (Midwest) by matt64 Sep 20, 2000 (2:36 am)
Attention: Minnesota, Iowa, WI, IL & other midwest buyers My wife and I had to cancel our order on our 2001 oddy. The dealer said they would give us our $500 deposit back if we found a buyer....Think we will have problems? Mail me at Elvisourdogmn.mediaone.net.
#54 of 24381 Congrats efulmer by chip28 Sep 21, 2000 (12:01 am)
Congratulations for your unexpected 2001 Ody delivery. We are in Charlotte. I too contacted Bryan Honda via Sam's club site. Tom Goff helped me. Unfortunately for us we had already put down a NON-REFUNDABLE $500 dep. at Hendrick Honda in Clt. Tom has Odys faster than anyone I've talked with in N.C. and would have delivered our GG EX to Clt. (Wish I knew of way out of deposit!!) I told him today of your positive comments. They were appreciated considering most comments directed at dealers aren't positive. To all out there like us still waiting: Tom informs me that the 2001's seem to be coming in faster than the 2000's did. Perhaps some of us will take delivery earlier than expected. Footnote: On three separate trucks within 3 days Bryan Honda received 11 Odys (majority EX's)
#55 of 24381 Odys in Maryland by jmurman42 Sep 21, 2000 (11:21 am)
Since my last post, I have changed dealerships. I am now at Heritage Honda in Towson Md. Our dealer her sell Odys at MSRP with only the equipt that you want on the car. We presently get 15-20 per month, and take no deposits until we receive our allocations. They say that on allocation day, it sounds like the stock market trading floor here. We presently sell around 160-200 units per month, so its a hoppin place. Feel free to e-mail me.
#56 of 24381 HondaCare wty. $ update by chip28 Sep 21, 2000 (4:57 pm)
Per PilotPat's post: I called David Winnie at Upstate Honda in New York. Price of 7/0/100 warranty has risen $60 to $895 as of Sept. 1st. Still a great deal compared to the other dealers I've talked with. Even better: No state tax. David will mail you warranty and place you on universal registration (take Ody to any dealer). BTW: About 10 people have called recently (1 from Alaska)to purchase the wty. from these guys. Don't spread word too much!

I guess that would be me...
#58 of 24381 thank you for these postings by vanshopper5 Sep 22, 2000 (3:56 am)
We have been van shopping & researching for the past couple of months...have visited honda, toyota, mazda, chevy, olds--did not want to go with the honda because we didn't want to pay MSRP...have come full circle and have come back to Honda as our #1 choice, Toyota as our second..but we are buying this van with the intention of keeping it for many years...my 86 Corolla has 152,000 miles and would probably give me more if I fixed the muffler and water pump..but it is time to move up to the van...but the purpose of this post is to thank everyone who has sent in...it has been an education!!! Almost too much!! When I spoke to the dealers--I had the 2001 Odyssey prices before they did and I told the salesperson that the horsepower was increasing to 210 on the Sienna..I don't think she believed me..she finally called back confirming what I already knew...amazing! WE are now just procrastinating the visit to the dealer to place the order...It still amazes and angers me that we received a phone call from a salesperson that they "just got" an Odyssey LX in the color we wanted, it would go fast but the prices as at least $1000 over MSRP.....I had been reading about this on the postings, but still became angry when it happened to me...told the sales person that we would NOT pay over sticker, we'll wait until we can at least get it for sticker. We do have a slight dilemma--LX vs Ex...would like the remote entry, roof rails and CD player...not really interested in the power doors...any suggestions out there??? For the prices of the add-ons should we just go with the EX???? Not looking forward to the actual placing of the order...have been referred to a dealer by a friend who says that he'll taken care of us...but what does that mean when it comes to the Odyssey??? Have read "murman's" posts regarding supply and demand economics, but it is still difficult/outrageous to accept....but the fact seems to remain that even if you get a "Deal" on i.e. a Sienna...it still works out to be about the same price as the Odyssey..so why not go with the Odyssey (unless you are in a hurry.)? Also, have you found that the salespeople seem to be new and don't know their product? Sorry about this long post, but I've been reading on the side line and wanted to post my 2 cents...but especially a big thank you to all ...this will be our most educated purchase..(Why is it that I feel we'll go in to the dealer with all this info and still get taken???? hence procrastination...our cars are still running)  anna
#59 of 24381 Dallas Dealers? by davidr6 Sep 22, 2000 (4:52 am)
Anyone know of an ethical dealer in Dallas who will sell 01 ODY for MSRP or less?
#60 of 24381 davidr6 by timothyadavis Sep 22, 2000 (12:54 pm)
Most of them should. David McDavid in Irving was frequently quoted as giving $300 off MSRP (ask for their internet salesman maybe) and Jim McNatt in Lewisville has always sold at MSRP (asking a $500 non?refundable deposit). Just be careful with Lute Riley in Richardson; they have the biggest allocation (they're the 2nd biggest volume Honda dealer in the country) but tend to try to stick on mandatory options (an oxymoron to be sure!). However, shrewd dealing folks have gotten MSRP and no added options even from them. Good Luck....
