Paid $31,844 ($700 above invoice) for Sage Green/Ivory Touring w/o Nav/RES. Purchased at Balise Honda in W. Springfield, MA. Was quoted same exact price at two CT dealerships (Liberty Honda & Torrington Honda). All negotiation through email. Only dealer fees paid on top of sales price were $170 documentation fee. Other than that, only 6% CT sales tax and DMV fees. 4.39% financing for 60 months too.

Within Texas and Oklahoma? Ya, I'm considering it, although I'd hate to do this and then run into one of the myriad of problems that *some* people are running into (rattles, ABS, doors not working, NAV/DVD issues) and have to drive for hours to get these resolved. Unfortunately, I think that this is pretty common, even for models which are pretty reliable in general. Thanks for your suggestion though! ETA

Replying to: brittone2 (Mar 16, 2005 10:19 am) I did all my price negotiations without even mentioning the trade. Once I got an acceptable offer and went in for the test drive I told them that I will buy the car today depending on what they offer for my trade. At that stage they basically are motivated to sell you the car as long as you are reasonable with what you expect to get for your trade. KBB trade in seems like a good gauge but consider that they will not pay for "excellent" rated, rather "good" rated KBB price on a 2002 car. Also, there is a forum here about real world trade in prices that is of help. You should check it out. By the way we were able to get below MSRP on our EX-L RES and I got $200 less than desired on my trade. Good luck! D. |

Replying to: daddyd (Mar 16, 2005 3:36 pm) I would get an estimate from a local dealer if you are buying far away. (Tell them you are not buying) and then go to Carmax. With that info I would go to buy the new vehicle and be prepared to drive the old vehicle back. (i.e. don't go alone in the trade-in). Selling yourself is time consuming and has its own risks. Maybe you could email a photo to the dealer. |

We're in the the early process of making a 05 Odyssey purchase. Anyone know of a dealer the would give as unbeatable deal in the Phoenix area?
