EX-L Florence, KY by missjane

Purchased an EX-L from Wyler Honda in Florence, Ky. Excellent service. I got the car including back-up sensors for $26,096 plus 6% tax, $250 processing fee, $73 title fee for an out-the-door price of $28,000. They gave me an internet price of $28,750 for the package last Friday and I called them today to say I would pick it up tonight for $28,000 OTD. I got a call 10 minutes later saying to come get it as long as I close the deal before the end of the month.
 
This board was a great help to me as I was ready to settle for vehicle invoice price plus $730 +/-for back-up sensors. I thought what the heck, see if they would take less than invoice or throw in the sensors for free.

EX Burnsville, MN by michael_lee76

Just purchased EX from Burnsville Honda, Minnesota for 25109 including destination charge. They first quoted me 25999, went down to 24444, and then matched the price that other two dealers quoted me. They were ready to throw in free mud guard but I did not push it because I got more than enough for my trade in.
 
By the way, their services were excellent from the beginning to the end. I will purchase another vehicle from them again within 2 months. (need a honda civic)

Some salespeople just don't get it. Never say "then go ahead and try the other 20 dealerships in the area".
 
I'd gladly pay an extra hundred or so to a more pleasant salesperson than this one. Funny, my car can actually drive to 40 other dealerships all within an hour or so. And my dealings were not unreasonable but their start was which I abruptly rejected. Of course, they came down from that inflated price and tried to push it as a HUGE gesture. REJECTED. Well, they have my number. I am moving on.
 
I'd like invoice, wouldn't we all, but I'll give an extra 2-300 for the EX w/cloth which is an already outdated vehicle given that it lacks leather, dvd, NAV. There are 30+ still in inventory in a 30-mile radius.
 
I don't believe that is unreasonable. Do you?

2004 EX with cloth & DVD by leesburg

My husband and I were planning to buy a Sienna for quite some time. We were ready to purchase this weekend so I began calling around to find out what was available. During this time, I also called the local Honda dealer to see about a red Odyssey I had noticed. Well, long story short, we ended up buying the 2004 EX with cloth & DVD last night. I think we got a pretty good deal -- $26,600 OTD. In the end, the amount of perks on the Honda were available for a better price than the Sienna. Also, I wasn't too crazy about the package system with the Sienna -- in choosing a package, you end up with some the upgrades you want and not others. I couldn't be more happy with our new EX!!!
 
Any comments?

Pricing Drops - Like Walmart Smiley Face!!! by buybuybuy

My regional pricing on Edmonds reflects the following trend:
 
Ex/cloth(including the dest) +/- pocket change on color choice
 
2/17/04 - 26642
3/10/04 - 26284
4/2/04 - 25696
 
$946 drop in average price in 35 days. These numbers have to delayed a bit as well in reporting. Not making it an exact science but you have to figure there are some 24500 as much as there are some 26000 in the sales to get the average.

$500 marketing support offered by Honda starting 4/1/04 by paulc6661

This is another sign that Siena and Quest are taking shares from Odyssey. With $500 marketing support, I think it should be very usual from now on to get below invoice on every Odyssey. It's great time to get the van.

It is a great time to buy a solid van in the '04 Ody that is litle behind the competition in Sienna and, IMO, still ahead of the Quest.
 
I think the main reasons pricing continues to dopr on the Ody is 1) the Sienna availability and pricing (i.e. they aren't/can't hold to MSRP anymore) and 2) anticipation of the '05 Ody intro which is not far off. I think the new Quest has had little to any impact.
 
Go buy!!

Interesting Fact !! by hislander

Has any one noticed that for the last 5 years, Honda dealers have been making a lot of profit on the Ody since they are currently able to sell the vehicle 3K below MSRP...
3K discount per vehicle* 100K copies/year * 5 years = 15 Billions Dollars. Any comment?
