I'm in the same boat as you. Trying to decide between 04 and 05 Odyssey but not needed until Spring 05 (lease return on current vehicle). Anderson Honda in Palo Alto quoted me an EXL w/DVD at invoice via there Internet Sales, so it seems most Honda dealers are motivated to move current 04 inventory at or below invoice. Honda dealers can only tell me the 05 is coming in Sep/Oct this year and pricing will be higher (no idea how much). My guess is that comparably equipped with the Toyota Sienna, pricing will be also comparable. That means potentially having to shell out $35K for the top of the line 05 Odyssey. That's approx a $5K difference from 04 to 05. I'm not real keen on paying that much more (even for a large engine, more bells and whistles, and better fuel economy). Plus the spy pictures of the new 05 Odyssey look "interesting" to me, not in a pleasing way. If, regardless of price, the 04 Odyssey has what you need and "wish for", then I'd buy it now at these good prices. Once the 05 comes, I believe pricing will be close to MSRP, even if they are back on equal competition with the Toyota Sienna. Just my opinion.

EX come with Security System? by vvv

I was quoted a really good base price for EX Odyssey: $23210
Then I added the following accessories:
Mud guard: $131.00,
Cargo Cover:  $143.08
I asked the sales person about sercurity system and he told me it cost $595 as EX does not come with security system. (I thought he was honest)
Total now become: 24569.08 (including destination and accessories)
 
I found out that security system actually come with EX model...
Is there anything I can do if the contract is sign but the sales person sell me something that is already a standard?
 
Am I still getting a good deal? Anyone?
 
Thanks

Which dealers gave you this quote? Does the price include destination charge? Any options? I live in south bay area, any tips on which dealers to go to and best price found? I am looking at EX-L & EX-L w/ RES. Thanks...

I have been quoted 24500 for an ex model(no nav, res, or leather). This does not include t,t, and L. Is this a good deal. I have an 02 Od EX with 27000 miles (mint condition). They are offering me 18,500 (below edmunds, KBB, and NADA). I have contacted several dealers and this is about all they will do for my trade. Any Advice would be greatly appreciated

Just curious and really none of my business but.....why the trade? You're paying $6k for essentially the same vehicle minus 27000 miles? Heck, at 27k miles, your '02 is just getting broken in good....

Try Anderson Honda in Palo Alto. Since I'm only casually looking right now, I did not price anywhere else. The Internet Sales Group quoted me a 04 EXL w/DVD at Invoice. Did not ask about destination charges or any other options.
 
Given what others are posting here, it seems you should be able to negotiate with other area dealers to get the best price.
 
A friend of mine bought his 03 Odyssey from Anderson Honda last year - his feedback was they were the most straightforward and other dealers were not as willing to negotiate. (That was before the 04 Toyota Sienna was available).
 
Good luck!

A newspaper reporter is interested in interviewing shoppers and recent buyers who are interested in side-curtain airbags. It doesn’t matter whether you bought a vehicle with them or not. If you were interested and at least searched for a vehicle with them, she’d like to talk to you.
Please respond to jfallonedmunds.com with your daytime contact information no later than Wednesday, July 7, 2004.
Thanks for your consideration!

Thank you and everyone else on this forum for the wonderful advice. I bought my odyssey EX-RES in redrock pearl(the color I always wanted)last night. I paid 23,700 for my van. The people on this site gave me the information and the nerve to negotiate a good deal with confidence. I dealt with Criswell and my salesperson was very straight forward and pleasant. Thanks to everyone who posted and good luck to everyone in their purchase.
