By dealer fees, do you mean destination charges? That is a charge that everyone has.

I didn't find much info about the VP either. I've tried 4 different sources and got similar quotes (in Oregon). I'll keep you updated if I find a better price.

that is an "impressive" list - one might argue that they made the list of these routine items very long, in order to justify the outrageous 599 fee. This fee is always negotiable, by virtue of having them reduce the selling price of the car.

Thanks actuary. I just checked out hondaacuraworld, and that's really good to know about. Might actually get the mud guards. I kind of like how the car looks with them. Plus, I guess they might even help a little bit too. Installing aftermarket accessories like that doesn't affect warranty does it?

In your message, you just mention "losing some courtesy light". Do you mean the door courtesy light? or front door courtesy light or both front and rear lights? Thanks

That's the cost of doing business... very negotiable. All you have to do is read how other places don't charge those fees. Consider it with the total for the car and don't let them separate it out for you. Really, the out the door price is all that matters anyway.

Hi mdta:
 
Thanks for sharing your experience. May you let me know if the quoted plan is a silver/gold/platinum?
 
I did not buy an Accord yet, but went to a dealership for a test drive. After that, per my inquiry, the finance people told me that they only sell Platinum plan of the extended warranty to 2006 Accord and the price range was around $1400-$1700. Based on my experience of previous purchase of other car's extended warranty, I know this price is negotiable. But, since this is my first time dealing with Honda dealer, I just don't know what the base line is that I could negotiate with.
 
So welcome more inputs.
 
Thanks.

purchased today $19178 from DeLon in Salem through internet dept (+$50 doc and $168 for 4 years dmv fees). best ever buying experience - friendly, and was at dealership about 2 hours inc long test drive.
 
had tried unsuccessfully to beat that price in portland. sub $19k prices available elsewhere in the US seem to be tough to come by in this region.
