I concur. OTD is a meaningless term.

You remind me of another guy who was here right before launch telling us that we will not be seeing invoice on the Accord until next year!! Maybe you are intentionally closing your eyes to facts on this forum: people have paid invoice for the Accord!! I do a lot of driving and i see a whole bunch of sedans and coupes at dealerships. With this mortgage foreclosure mess, dealers are doing whatever it takes to get you in a car. NOBODY should be paying more than invoice on an Accord sedan or coupe. Common, its an Accord we are talking about not a Ferrari!

In your local taxable area it does matter.. however outside your local taxable area compare OTD taking into consideration taxes. skywalker4 was referencing to to their local area.

"I concur. OTD is a meaningless term."
Not if you are comparing in your local taxable area.

This is not a local community forum, so for clarity, it would be much more useful to itemize the price out so others do not have to try and guess or "reverse engineer out" the amount of money going to the dealer as the selling price vs the amount going to pay taxes and registration (assuming others even know where the car was purchased and what local taxes and fees are there) plus and minus how a trade-in influenced the transaction.

I never said or inferred this was a local forum....I understand what you are saying however the poster referenced local area.... so if a person was to shop the local area OTD is the key....itemization of price is useless if you are comparing in the local taxable area.... in this case OTD is the key. If a poster wanted to compare instead of referencing the price paid then take into consideration the itemization of price in a different taxable area. I was referencing a specific post.

I just purchased an Accord LX-P at Honda of Santa Monica for $20,516, came to 22,500 OTD. I used the internet method.

Itemization is not useless even in the local area. If you want to also add it up and list a grand total OTD price in addition to itemization, fine, but quoting only the OTD without a break down is not helpful.
Even if someone was quoting a price for a car in my local city, I would still want to see where the total came from and what was involved in the deal such as financing trade-ins and dealer add ons.
Just quoting an OTD price paid without details is almost as bad as just quoting a monthly payment.
