I figured, I shared this to you all. I am in NJ. I am planning to finance the 2008 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L V6 No Navigation. Price that I was offered by the dealer was- $24,915. Second, I also showed interest in a 2008 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L V6 (Nav) for $26,903. As you can see, per edmunds, this dealer is offering me under invoice. I don't know why. But, I would sure like to know what you all think of this. The prices were quoted to me via e-mail from their Internet Sales Dept. By the way, does anybody know what are the current financing rate through AHFC? I checked their website, but didn't gave me rates for financing this since they just launched this model back in Sep 07. Thanks!!

Dust and dirt show up really bad, so you have to keep in clean.
 
Every little dent and ding will show up as will any scratches or swirl marks.
 
Gets a good bit hotter in the sun inside than a lighter color.
 
It is not more difficult to maintain (other than you would have to clean it more often) and the results are certainly stunning when properly washed and waxed, but the negatives (for me) out weigh the positives.

I've owned my last black car for the reasons listed in that last post.

E-mail the dealer back and make sure the prices they quoted you include DESTINATION and are not just for the car itself. Also ask how much their "doc" or "prep" fees are, if any. Some dealers have been known to quote the price and leave off the $635 destination fee. Then you go to buy they add it back in and your deal is not as sweet as you thought. Ditto the dealer fees - some charge as high as $500 now - so always get price quote that includes the car, destination, and any dealer fees. The rest of the stuff - taxes, tags, etc will be the same from any local dealer.
 
The 08 Accord is new and selling well and there are no current discount finance rates that I have heard about. What I would do is get pre-approved through your bank or credit union or someplace like CapitalOne before you go to the dealership. Then challenge the dealer to beat your financing rate, if they can then you go with them, if they can't you use your pre-approved loan. Never walk in without a pre-approved loan, otherwise you can't know if the dealer is giving you the buy rate or is marking it up.

I got my loan through the Pentagon Federal Credit Union. New car loan 4.99% for 60 months. Probably the lowest you will get. Anyone can join for $20. Whole application done online and received check in three days.

I got 5.40% 36mo. from AHFC last month in Ilinois.
It all depends on your credit score tough.

I have a black on black 08 coupe. It sure does show dirt and scratches, but it looks beautiful when it's clean. I was thinking about getting a polished metal or silver, but when I saw a black, I was sold.
Now it's too late, I just have to keep it clean.
