I stopped looking a month ago since I was so frustrated at the high prices of the Ody. At the time, I read in this forum that there was a dealer in Knoxville offering the Ody at around $1k+ below MSRP. The same dealer apparently had a Touring on e-Bay as well. I cannot remember the dealer name. I did not contact the dealer as I did not want to go to TN and thus cannot say for sure whether it was real. My instincts tell me it was real because the person/poster seemed very credible.

Purchased 05 LX last Tuesday (10/19/04) in Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex area. Price was $500 under MSRP and included mud flaps, cargo tray, wheel locks and extra front window tinting. Rubbed on three dealers over a week to get price down. Missed chance to negoiate out dealer inventory tax: $51.84,and "Road and Bridge/Deputy Fee": $15. Note that two options are available for Honda-Care 7year/100,000 mile coverage: 0% or $50 deductible. Negoiate 0% for the lower-priced $50 deductible. Good luck.

You can always fly to PIT or EWR for about $200,
buy the car in NJ for MSRP, or in PA for MSRP-500 and drive it home.

Bought 05 Odyssey RES and NAV by inky4

Went ahead and bought the van for the standard $500 discount with $49.50 DOC fee from local Honda dealer Mark Roberts Honda, Bartlesville, OK north of Tulsa--they have entire inventory on line and priced with a one price strategy. You all may remember them as the famous $316 over invoice on Odyssey that many of us bought in 1999--a deal Honda Corporate did not like I am told. Nor did local dealers. Negotiation only on 04s is how they are set up. They have tourings in stock and some others coming in. They give the best deal because no ordeal. Anyhow, Slate with Olive RES and NAV built this week and coming in a few weeks. Yes, prices will get better but I sold my ride privately and have no time to wait.

"The Northern California dealer I mentioned earlier wants to give me a higher money factor and a lower residual than the local dealer, so the monthly payment gap is not as extreme."
 
Higher money factor plus lower residual = higher lease payment. So I don't understand your comment about the monthly payment gap. Am I missing something?
 
When I leased my '04 EX-L over Labor Day weekend, I got a 2 year lease with a money factor of 0.00099 and a residual of $19,126. I negotiated a selling price of $25,072, so the van is only costing me $219/mo (main reason why I went with an '04 vs. waiting for an '05). If my money factor was higher but my residual was also higher, then my payments might have been the same, but then the value of the car at the end of the lease would have been overinflated. Similarly, if the money factor was lower but the residual was lower, I would have also paid about the same, however then the car would be worth more at trade-in than it would cost me to purchase it, in which case I would buy the car and sell it to someone else and pocket the difference.
