What do you mean a much better buy/value for the accord? See the above post who pay $27700 for the accord which is ONLY $2000 less than the TL. The TL has Bluetooth, HID, higher quality of interior, needless to say a much solid feeling (driving), and more fun to drive.
TL is an entry-level luxury car but accord is not (you can definitely feel the quality difference)
With the same mount of money, you still prefer the accord and say that accord has a better value?????
How about Lexus ES350 vs Carmry V6 leather. If their sale prices are the same, Do you still prefer to have Carmry?
I do not buy that the Accord has a higher resale value than the TL (how much? 2% differences?). Beside if you consider the resale value as one of the important factors to buy a car, you might want to get one at the price around $15000. You will never lost too much after a few years of driving (up to $15000 - resale at $0).

You made your point, so give it a rest. This is the Accord forum, if you want to talk about Acura cars post in the appropriate forum.
Thanks!

EX manual 4cyl - bay area

Hi All,
I'm being quoted $21741 for an EX manual 4cyl Accord, this is through my car insurance/auto loan USAA car buying program. This doesn't include tax and other fees - can someone advise if this is a fair price?
Also - we're in the market to buy a car because our other Honda was totalled in a car accident, so we absolutely need to buy a car, however with the lack of incentives out there, I'm wondering whether I should wait until there are better deals? Your thoughts and opinions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

If the quote is plus TTL only, sounds like a great deal to me, way less than what I have been quoted here in Colorado - the key might be the "other fees" - total price + TTL is the best way to compare. Good luck.

Hey man those Accura's cost a lot money. If had it like that, I would be considering BMW and also Lexus. 29000 is a lot of money for as base model. You could get a fully loaded Camry and Accord for that much. Hell, I can barely afford a Camry or Accord. All cars cost too much to me. All I want is a good car at a reasonable price. I'm not a kid so I don't car about how fun a is to drive. I'm going to, most times, drive at the speed limit and follow the traffic rules. Reliability and affordability means more to me.

Invoice is $21,532 including destination. If your price includes destination and dealer doc or prep fees then that is a nice deal. If they are going to add the dealer fee on top of the price, it is OK as long as the fee is not too high. If they are going to add destination and dealer fees on top of the price, then run away - run far away.

I emailed a dealership for a quote and they replied saying the invoice for a 2008 EX-L V6 without navi is $26,305. I replied to him saying that edmunds says that the invoice is actually $26,051. His response was "Those sources do not include the Honda Dealer advertising charge." Is this true?

Also, is $28313 a good quote for a 2008 ex-L V6 WITH NAVI ? This includes destination charge.

In some areas and regions they may have an advertising charge. If the dealer disputes the invoice amount, pick the car you want off the lot and ask him to pull the invoice for that car and show it to you - there could be an ad fee on it.
BTW, a dealer told me that the leather models are in short supply right now and so he does not discount those as much. Could be just his dealership, regional, or maybe nationwide.
