You should get the diminished value you lose from the insurance company. They have a formula that will pay to you the loss of value due to your van being refurbished. You may have to demand it though. Many people don't even ask for it because they are not aware it's available. Wife worked in insurance claims many years.

2004 or 2005 Odyssey? by aristotle

Hi all,
       Given the discounts on the 2004 Odyssey, is it better to get a 04 than an 05?
Will the 05 prices be as competitive? If not, is the 05 worth the wait and the extra money?
 
Or, is it better to wait till late September to make the decision? Will the discounts on the 04 models continue even in September?

The MSRP on 05 will be lower than 04 just like the 04 Siena versus 03 ones. But in the first few month 05 will go close to MSRP while 04 is now under invoice from $600 to $1200.
 
Whether 05 is worth the extra money depends how you like new features on 05. Go check out the future Odyssey thread in the Owner's club board.
 
You might not be able to find a 04 Odyssey in late September. Even if you locate one, the dealer that still has one is a greedy dealer to begin with.
 
If you can wait till November, get a Sienna at around invoice since everybody is eyeing the new Odyssey then. If you can wait till next Febuary, you can get a 05 Odyssey for about $1000 over invoice.

I suppose it's possible the MSRP could be lower but it's not a safe assumption so I wouldn't count on it.
 
My opinion is that the '04 is the "better buy" right now but if you think you'll regret not having the newer model when it comes out you might want to wait. I'm '04 shopping and this is one of my concerns.
 
As for the Sienna, right now to get one similarly equipped would run you several thousand $ more than the Ody which is why I've ruled it out. Toyota kills you with their options packages.

Just got quote from a dealer in Virginia...includes wheels locks and pin strips:
 
$26,514 Base +
$ 796 (3% VA Sales Tax)
$ 51 (county tax)
$ 189 (processing)
$ 51 (license & title)
$27,601 = OTD
 
Can I do better or is this a good deal?

Before the Sienna, Toyota was able to introduce new cars cheaper than previous generation models on several lines, including the Celica, Corolla, and Camry.
 
I don't know that much about the history of Honda and price changes from one generation to the next. Can you point to any instances where a new generation Honda was cheaper than the preceeding?

jonesy, you can probably do a little better. I've got quotes on the EX-L RES for $26,970 base. The RES is worth more than $456! Also, fight that "processing" fee, make them at least cut it in half unless they really come down on the base. Find out what the dealer invoice is from Edmunds or elsewhere and subtract $500 (the factory to dealer incentive) and that is the highest you should pay. Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback skinnytony. I didn't have the $500 incentive on my cost sheet, so that should definitely come off the OTD price.
