What are these going for in the Washington DC area? Since LX's are relatively rare, does that mean the price is lower or higher (relative to invoice) than for the more common Odysseys? I've seen quotes at around $24,300 for an LX with no options. Is this a good price? Edmunds what others are paying is $25,365 which seems unbelievable high.

| Just wanted to post our experience - we live in Florida where Touring Odysseys with DVD and RES have been extremely hard to come by. We had been trying to get the van since mid-November. There hasn't been one to be found until recently - and we have searched statewide. One that we could have had in December would have cost $4000 above MSRP, and, forget about getting anything close to invoice price. We resigned ourselves to MSRP as that's what everyone was basically offering, and the van is so hard to get. The van does seem to be getting slightly easier to find now, as the day we were buying it, a couple of other dealers called to tell us that they had one. Oh well, we had to act quickly as we are expecting a third child in a couple of weeks. So, to complete the story, we bought the van at Duval Honda in Jacksonville. It was an ok experience. We got it for $500 under MSRP with a $279.00 dealer fee (which was a couple of hundred less that a lot of dealers were charging). They didn't throw in any extras. I think we lost out on our trade-in - a 1998 Acura TL with 85,000 miles, in very good condition. They gave us $4700. We new that Carmax may give us a couple of hundred more; but, that was basically the tax savings. And, we live in Orlando, so we didn't really want to drive two vehicles back from Jacksonville. | |
| I also live in Florida and agree EXL with dvd res/nav are also hard to find. However I REFUSE to give anything above 500 over invoice. I can afford to wait as I do not NEED the van I WANT the van. I'll just hold out because the supply vs demand can't last forever. Who know maybe I'll end up with an 06. I feel the 500 over invoice and dealer holdback equals about a 1500 profit which is fair to both parties. I have moved the search further from my home but believe that only time will allow this deal to happen. Who knows maybe Honda will offer some incentives later in the year. | |
Does anyone have any recent experience purchasing either EXL or Touring in the Louisville, KY area?

New dealer just opened up closer to us. Met a neighbor there who was thinking about trading in an '03. Older couple, thought I might be of some help to them.
