Folks: We live in Cincinnati area and no dealer around here was willing to talk close to invoice. We have a Honda dealer just a couple of miles and three salespeople ignored invoice talk. Ok, so we hit the usual internet sites and Costco auto buying program. Costco has no dealer in SW ohio but one near Cleveland and Indy. Indy dealer was willing to knock off 2k off MSRP which is 39010. Trolling the Edmunds forums (thanks guys), asked a few more with emails and their site. Got a few. But I was really impressed with Voss Honda in Tipp City. First offer was 700 over invoice (which is 35038 with Transportation) which is 35738 but they included free splash guards which is $99 retail. Took the offer. But they did not have any Touring with R&N. My wife wanted Red. The sales person was terrific. He arranged for an on-air trade with a dealer in Columbus. Deal was done on May 6, Ody built on May 11. Arrived in Columbus 5/24 (somebody at Honda couldn't transfer the paperwork to Voss). Voss picked it up yesterday, installed splash guards, washed, filled up the tank. We arrived at 7PM, the sales person stayed with us till 9:15PM explaining everything on this loaded van. They also sold us 7/75 extended warranty at the same price mentioned in these forums. They did not pressure us to buy anything extra. Price breaks down as 35738 + 100 doc fee + 875 (7/75 Extended Warranty) + 7% OH tax + 25.5 Title fee = 39308. They also got me a terrific loan deal with Honda/Chase. They went through hoops to have the title in my wife's name when I had applied for the loan. Great people. Great service. And they are President's medal holders for Ohio. What more can you ask? I hope the Cincinnati dealers come down from their high perch. This van is cool. Dave. |

You're about to get a warning from the Host about not posting your email address and 'no group buys.' Just FYI.

I just finished dealing with Holler Honda (in Winter Park) and Courtesy Honda (in Sanford). Each of them kept calling and trying to beat the other dealer's price! I think it really helps to buy at the end of the month, when they are trying to meet their quotas. Holler called today and said I could have it for $500 over invoice (plus $500 dealer fee), but I had to come TODAY to buy the van. Courtesy agreed to the same price, but didn't pressure me, so I decided to go with Courtesy! Plus Courtesy is running a special--giving out a free digital camera with each Honday purchase during the Memorial Day weekend. I'm picking up the van in the morning! Can't wait!

| Planning on buying this weekend. Here's the best quote so far in the Chicago metro: "AS WE SPEAK I HAVE BLACK/BLACK ODY TOURING RES/NAV AND 2 BLACK WITH IVORY IN STOCK AND YOU CAN BUY TOURING RES/NAV FOR $37300 INCLUDING DESTINATION FEE" - Grand Honda. Anyone have an opinion on whether this is good or not? No trade in to worry about in this deal. | |

I believe there will be some type of special on financing over this Memorial day weekend (offered by Honda). I already heard something on the radio this morning that one of the dealership is offering 0% / 60mo on all 05 models. You will probably get this without getting too much discount on vehicle. Also, I would like to find out what would be good price to pay for EX-L and/or EX-L RES in ATL. I am willing to drive few hours to save $$$$.

Replying to: ks96 (May 24, 2005 9:32 am) Now look at the price you have $30488. I do not know the tax and license fee you have to put, but I assumed that you have to pay 7% on $30488 for everything. That comes to $32622. The difference between $32622 and $28965 is your trade in value, which comes to $3657. You are getting a raw deal! And they are being very tricky about it!! I would avoid that dealer if I were you. I hope you have not purchased the vehicle. In addition, I think you want to talk to the dealership about pricing, trade-in and financing separately. I think they want to confuse you when they talk in payment terms. I do not know if you have Excel at home. In Excel, there is NPV function that helps you calculate how much you are really paying when you make monthly payment. Hope it helps. Wei
