Anybody Purchase or Looking to Purchase Touring In Mass or New Hampshire? by massman

Have not read anything from anyone in this area. I have done my research and reading for the past 2 months and am just about ready to pull the trigger. Going to buy touring with NAVI & RES but trying to find a dealer who will give $1000-1500 off MSRP, best I have been able to negotiate so far is full sticker with $400-$600 in accessories at no charge.
I am located north of Boston

Took a test drive of a Touring Navi. Was told that any Odyssey could be built within 3 weeks. Garden State offered MRSP-750 on EX Navi without any other apparent unusual charges.
 
Is there any way to get Navi without the rear DVD>

I've had 3 dealers offer sticker price plus a discount on the tow package ($980 instead of 1200+) for either an EX or EXL. Has anyone found any Northern California dealers willing to going less.
 
Any one have experience / advice for towing (tent trailer) on an 05 Odyssey?

On Sept. 22 I emailed lots of dealers in Washington. I thought the Seattle area would offer me the best deal. Not even close. Try Moses Lake! Initially my best offer was $200 under from Spokane, but even with a dealer trade he couldn't get the vehicle I wanted until late November.
 
The next day I heard back from Moses Lake, offering $500 under with delivery in October. The internet salesman called to dealers outside their normal trade area to find me a Desert Rock EX-L with DVD/Nav. The document fee was $35. The state required title fee was $61. Plus sales tax. That was it. Not hidden fees, no additional fees.
 
We picked up our vehicle Friday. Very easy. No pressure to buy any extras. Fast & friendly.
 
My husband DID NOT WANT anyone to be allowed to test drive our vehicle before we picked it up. I was assured this would not happen, and it did not. There were only 9 miles on it, which were from the Honda required dealer test.
 
I didn't ask, but I bet that now prices are coming down, they are offering more than $500 off. They offered $500 off on September 23!
 
One Seattle dealer insisted that I was going to be "had" with a quote like that. He said it was completely unreasonable to believe that a dealer would sell such a hot vehicle to me at that price! He sent me a lengthy email detailing why this couldn't possibly happen and why I should give him a call so we could discuss it. He didn't want to see me burned. I was quite ammused!

I like your idea, I am doing same with my friend in San Diego, CA. I talked to 25 dealers in San Diego surroundings including LA and Las Vegas for 2 Odysseys.
 
We are having the problem with colors, most of the dealers may not have the colors what we are looking for. Finally I bought one 2005 Odyssey EXL-DVD for $31600, it's $750 less than MSRP doc fees only $45.00. My friend looking for EXL-DVD-NAV, I negotiated with the dealer, they agreed the same discount $750 below MSRP for my friend too when they get his color.
 
If you would like to join with us, you are always welcome.

I seems that most posts show that buyers are still paying MSRP+ on their '05 Odyssey minivan purchases. It surprises me that buyers are freely admitting that they are doing paying this premium. Is this really a seller's market? I mistakingly thought that increased production would offset this premium.

If you are close to Albany check out Bedard Brothers Honda in Cheshire,MA. We have ordered our silver touring with NAV from them. Build date is 10/26 for delivery on Nov 10. Check them out. We paid 950 over INVOICE + $50 for documentation fee. We are paying PA taxes and tags.

"Auto Club and Costco offer special pricing for most cars, however, not for the Odessey. Carsdirect.com still has Odyssey $2K over MSRP."
 
Cars Direct in our zip code has Ody at MSRP and as far as I know Costco's price is $500 under MSRP everywhere.

This is the first I've heard of any dealer offering only $900 over invoice. Would you mind telling everyone exactly what you paid for this vehicle. Touring w/NAV/RES. MSRP is $38K+, but invoice plus $1K would make it about $35K. Also do you know if this dealership ships vehicles. with the quote you've provided this could still save $3K off the cost.

Something does not seem right about paying $950 over INVOICE.I hope you put a receipted deposit down.I hope for your sake that the dealer is on the up and up and not telling you a story to get an order and when the car comes in the excuses why the car cannot be sold for the agreed price start. What I find more astonishing is the $50 processing fee. Most dealers, at least those in my area of central Ga.charge $399 and up.Just more money in the pocket of those greedy honda dealership owners.
