Touring with RES & Nav... for $31,844 which you say is $700 above invoice? You are mistaken! That's the price for EX-L w/RES& Nav... THAT"S NOT A TOURING.. I call B.S....even the tightest of us tight-wades couldn't get them to sell it for $4000 UNDER INVOICE. You may want to up date your post.

Doesn't the tile say "W/O"? Which for most of us means without.
 
The price is for a plain Touring.

I'm going to grab a new '05 EX-L in the next 8 weeks. Does anyone have any idea if Honda will have any deals or incintives before June??
 
Thanks

Contact Hugh White in Columbus. I bought a Touring R&N there last month for invoice. They had 24 Odysseys in stock as of last Sunday (biggest inventory thus far this year) so a good deal should be in the offing if you can get it done yet this month. An EX-L R&N is about the hardest model to find - I believe they only had one of them then.

Thanks CCCompson, I'll give them a call. VERY impressed with the Honda after test driving one tonight. Also came to the conclusion an EX-L is all we'll need as a family (you can pick up portable DVD players for $200 anymore). Local dealer's initial offer was $28718 plus $100 doc fee and $25 plates, does this sound decent? Their trade in offer was right about where it needed to be. They also had about 25 new vans on their lot, any help on where the pricing should be would be GREATLY appreciated.....Mark.
 
P.S. Exactly What IS the Invoice on an '05 EX-L W/O nav or RES/DVD ? Does Invoice include $515 Destination?

Chicago area touring res nav pricing by jlgregory

All you need is one person to offer a deal and most dealers, who want to sell a car will play along. We were originally quoted $1000 over invoice on the touring res nav in schaumburg. We would have bought right then and there, but couldn't decide on color. Once we decided, the one black/black they had was sold hours before we called.
 
We were planning on going on a family vacation and really wanted the new van, so we started expanding our search to see if we could get one in time. I can't remember which dealers were willing to talk, but several quoted list as their best price.
 
I guess we did ok. Try taking an autofair.com price quote in to see what a local dealer will do. If we didn't have the trade to contend with, a flight out to New Hampshire and the drive back wouldn't have been so bad.

Did you start by visiting our new cars page? If you build your vehicle there, you'll get MSRP, invoice pricing and TMV (average price that others in your area are paying).

Dealers here in DFW are currently using an invoice price of around $30848 for the EX-L NAV/RES. It varies slightly from dealer to dealer. If you come across the "official" invoice I'd like to see that .

Well, as mentioned earlier, I gave up on Bankston and yesterday I put a deposit down at David McDavid for a slate green / gray EX-L NAV/RES. The price for the vehicle jumped $600 to $32448 ("that old price that we gave you was for one that was on the lot") but given how hard it is to even locate this vehicle in the DFW area, I decided this wasn't a bad deal.
 
While I was there their internet sales manager (contacted through the Edmunds online service) showed me their list of incoming vehicles. Through about April/May they only had a handful of EX-L NAV/RES models coming in and only 1 in our #1 color choice. I said something like "you guys aren't going to turn around and sell this to the next higher bidder are you?" and they assured me that as of tomorrow, that vehicle will have "sold" indicated beside it so it can't be allocated to anyone else. They also said that because it will be marked as sold when it comes in, it won't get the "dealer treatment" where they stick wheel locks and detailing etc. on it so they can jack up their profits. It should be made around the end of April and they should be able to give me the VIN about 10 days before it shows up.
 
Stay tuned -- I'll update when/if I actually take possession of the vehicle .
 
Here's the pricing that I'm looking at BTW:
 
EX-L NAV / RES 30848.00
markup 1600.00
D&H 515.00
SubTotal 32963.00


Tax 2123.95
Total 35086.95
license / doc fee 225.00
Final Total 35311.95

I dropped all the accessories for now. They wanted to charge way too much for these (e.g. $599 for fog lights with labor). My plan is to look for these at handa-accessories.com and install as much as I can myself.
 
I'm pretty sure I can handle the mud guards, 3rd row sunshade and even the cargo tray myself .
 
Less sure about the fog lights but I can't imagine not being able to get these installed for $100 or so (and the parts cost quite a bit less at handa to begin with). Anyone know if there are warrantee issues if these aren't installed by Honda (e.g. if something electrical goes wrong will they try to blame it on the fog lights)?
 
I might let the dealer do the tinting -- they want $150 which doesn't seem to bad. Anyone know if I could do better than that aftermarket (with a lifetime warrantee)?
