#9465 of 20237 Honda EXL (Silver/Gray) Price paid & experience by toddinsc Apr 27, 2005 (8:32 pm)
Replying to: briwill21 (Apr 21, 2005 3:48 pm) We just bought a 2005 Odyssey EXL. Paid $27820 plus $130 for muds, $120 for cargo tray, $87 procurement fee, $39 tag transfer and $300 tax (sales tax is capped in SC for residents). Total out the door was $28496. This is $129 below invoice excluding the two options. Excellent buying experience. Acutally I never went to the lot. Everything handled by phone and my wife picked up the car when I was travelling. Bought from Superior Honda in Organeburg, SC. Highly recommend.   Other dealers Rock Hill SC was about $580 above invoice via phone Dick Brooks in Greer was about $251 above invoice via phone Honda cars of Aiken was about $2200 above invoice in person Gerald Jones Honda in Augusta would not quote over the phone   Success, Todd

Replying to: chewie5 (Apr 27, 2005 4:38 pm) Normally they won't uninstall such things. But if you can catch one before it hits the dealership good dealers will only put the items on that you request. They know what they have on order and the ETA. Or they can order for you. Don't pay for what you don't want. I had success with Superior Honda in Orangeburg, SC
#9467 of 20237 Re: LX or EX pricing in Bellevue Washington [tamu2002] by karbuff Apr 27, 2005 (9:24 pm)
Replying to: tamu2002 (Apr 26, 2005 10:10 pm) I've been to Bellevue Honda before, and it seems they are used to selling cars to people who have money to burn, and don't mind paying retail. If you're set on an Odyssey, and it's definitely a good choice, I'd try going south first. Renton Honda has had adds in the Times for Odyssey EX with cloth for around $26000, which is $700-800 over invoice, and they've offered more than the "one only" at that price. Didn't see it last weekend but it does appear every so often. Lots of posts here for invoice and below but I don't know if there's enough inventory around here to get a dealer to sell that low, but it doesn't hurt to call around, or try dealer web sites and see what you get.

Replying to: karbuff (Apr 27, 2005 9:24 pm) I have recieved quotes from Hondas in Seattle, Renton, South Tacoma, Bellevue. They all gave me atleast 2K or higher above invoice. So i decided to try Mt. Vernon Honda for my EXL in silver/grey color. They have one and quoted me with $29,900 (price includes cargo net, floor mats, mud guards, and wheel locks) plus TTL. Tax is only 8.2% in Mt. Vernon. I had one similar quote from Kendal Honda in Salem, Oregon. But Mt. Vernon is a closer drive. The van is due in their lot this week. I also put 1K down for secure the van. I will see if the dealer deliver their promise or not. If it doesn't arrive like they said it would, i cancel my order and drive to Salem, Oregon.

Replying to: madonna33j (Apr 27, 2005 7:00 pm) At that price it *better* be a Touring. An EX-L with NAV/RES can be had for around $32500 + TTL (some people are doing even better than that).   Yours is a Touring NAV/RES (I don't know what the actual Honda code is), if it had no NAV it would be a Touring RES.   What area are you in? My experience in the Dallas area has been that dealers have been unable to trade for NAV/RES Odysseys and that wait times (for ordering one) are at least 6 weeks...   I'm hoping to pick up our EX-L NAV/RES next week...   ETA Replies to this message: madonna33j (Apr 28, 2005 5:09 am) cccompson (Apr 28, 2005 2:33 pm)

Replying to: eta (Apr 27, 2005 10:47 pm) hiya ETA;   Yes, I am guessing there is not way they can pull a switch. They make you so nervous though. I don't mind the wait...the contract states that we will have the car by May 30th. They said the deposit is refundable.   I got nervous that they would say it was a touring and instead it was an EX with Navi RES. Or say that my paperwork states an EX. Although he wrote Touring on top.   If everything is okay. I must say our buying experience was great. The manager called me on the phone. I told him what Edmunds said you should pay for the car. Then he said okay, threw in a bunch of accessories and we are paying 37, 500 + TTR.   I find it strange that you pay a destination charge and a delievery charge? Destination is 515 and delivery as $399.   Hopefully, the whole experience is just fine. Then I can write a glowing report on them. We are in Florida. maddy Replies to this message: cccompson (Apr 28, 2005 2:33 pm)

Replying to: tobedetermined (Apr 27, 2005 1:19 pm) Which dealer in Philly? Thanks.
#9472 of 20237 Karbuff and Bruce by tamu2002 Apr 28, 2005 (12:07 pm)
Thanks for your suggestions! Mt Vernon is in Oregon right? That's too far a drive for us. Also taxwise, wouldn't I pay the same Washington sales tax regardless where I buy the van. I'll definitely check out the Renton dealer when the time comes. Will let you all know what transpires. Replies to this message: brucegt1 (Apr 28, 2005 6:10 pm)
#9473 of 20237 EXL w/ RES and NAVI by mcdowd Apr 28, 2005 (1:39 pm)
My wife and I are looking for an EXL w/RES and Navi. Anyone have any recent experiences in the San Diego or Greater Southern, CA area?   Our local dealer, unnamed at the moment, is asking MSRP plus $1000. Clearly, this is not an option.   Thanks.

Replying to: madonna33j (Apr 28, 2005 5:09 am) For your own piece of mind, maddy, go back to the dealer and have them clearly indicate on the contract that it is for a Touring R&N (Honda's designation). Also, get them to commit to you where the vehicle is coming from - either they can get it now or it has been allocated to them - pin them down on this or you might be waiting a good long while. From what you have said, they being way too vague about it.   While Edmunds' TMV might be indicative of the average selling price, it does reflect "best prices" or factor in geography. Good deals on Odysseys are hard to get in Florida. By way of contrast, I paid the old invoice price of $34,558 (which included $400 worth of accessories) plus $100 doc fee for the same vehicle in Columbus in February.   The $515 fee is charged by Honda to the dealer and there is no mark-up in it. The $399 "dealer fee" is common in Florida and is 100% profit for the dealer.   I had some contact with Flordia dealers relative to an Odyssey on behalf of my dad in March and the contrast with those in Ohio (both as to price and otherwise) was striking.
