can you say what dealership this was at and how the tax issue was dealt with? I am in WA about 3hr and have been thinking of doing just what you did but do not know if it is worth the trip. Please share your experience.

edmunds' tmv and carsdirect.com's price is way above what I've been able to get with my local dealer (with NO haggling. If you do not mind traveling, try autofair.com in NH. I go to NYC and NJ all the time just for the food.

In my case the vehicle was originally destined for a dealer in Texas. My dealer did a 3-way trade with another dealer in Oklahoma.
 
Originally the van was supposed to have about 300 miles. But one of the buyer's wanted the vehicle trucked so mine didn't end up with any miles on it. I had 16 on delivery.
 
One thing the dealer mentioned is that if the van has say 500 miles on it, the warranty starts from 500 not from 0. So your 36000 mile warranty would run to 36500.

Good deal Slyk.
 
I felt bad for not buying from Jack O (another dealer closer beat their price). It's good to reward dealers for such aggressive pricing. In my opinion, small town dealers offer better prices compared to their metroplex kin. For some reason the metro prices were all clustered together in the same range.

Ody EXL with DVD in San Diego by lapnorm1

Just purchased a midnight blue Odyssey EXL with DVD/RES for $30,300 last night at Tipton Honda in San Diego. Included at that price were wheel locks, a cargo tray and splash guards. All negotiating was done over the phone and I was in and out of the dealership within a hour and a half. Great experience with the sales and finance staff, would highly recommend.

EX-L in Arizona by bloody

I spent a little time as an observer here before making my purchase. I appreciate all of the great information here.
 
I just purchased a 2005 EX-L and think that I got a pretty good deal,but just wanted to throw it out here for discussion for a couple reasons. First is simply my curiousity...second, and most importantly, is for any others in AZ (Phoenix) who are in the market for an Odyssey.
 
Here is how it broke down...
-- $29,600 total purchase price
-- I was trading in a 2000 CR-V. Kelly blue book on it in "good" condition was $10,200. It had a cracked windshield and the black molding on the back was scraped. They gave me $10,500 for the trade.
-- Everything I could find down here for rates on the Odyssey from various dealerships was 4.9 for excellent credit. They first came back at 5.29 or something and I explained that I knew I could beat that. They couldn't beat through Honda financing, but their finance guy outsourced it through another lender and I got 4.19 for 60 months. (although I opted to go with 4.54 for 66 months, just to lower the payments a bit more)
 
So, in a nutshell, $29,600 for an EXL, they gave me $300 over book value on a trade, and 4.54% for 66 months....now for the experts....was it a good deal like I believe it was?
 
I ended up purchasing the vehicle at Earnhardt Honda in Avondale and it was a great experience...great people...great sales guy, etc.
 
Thanks for your input!

$30,300 ..wow, great price. Isn't that about $700 below invoice for EX-L DVD,NAV? How'd you manage that?

And I was thinking lapnorm1 bought a Touring+DVD+NAV!!!!!
 
Read the title carefully, that price was for an EXL-RES which is the same as a EXL-DVD. So relax don't burn up too many brain cells thinking you can get an EXL-RES-NAV for that price.

If shopping in the DFW area, I would recommend talking to John Eagle. I live in the DFW area and found them to be the best to work with, best straight forward pricing. Many dealerships in the Dallas area wouldn't go near them in prices nor did the other dealerships offer bare bones models without the add-ons that they didn't tell you about until you walked in the door (Bankston in Lewisville). I never had to run circles with John Eagle like I did with some of the other dealers I spoke with. I would definitely recommend them!!!
We haven't purchased yet but so far John Eagle wins overall with price and professionalism. Freeman offered best initial price that was then beat by John Eagle. Rusty Wallis and David McDavid (Frisco) seemed pretty straight up though they didn't give the best price up front they seem to be willing to compete.
We plan on buying in the next week so I will let you know how and with whom we go.

Sorry for any confusion. The deal was for an EXL with the DVD system but no NAV.
