2008 Accord EX-L V6 Coupe (silver) by chd1
Feb 28, 2008 (3:03 pm)

$25,341.88 ($300 below invoice)
 
$635 (Destination)
 
$99 (Dealer Processing - standard in area)
 
$238 (MD tags/registration - I thought this was a little high, but every dealer came back with the same numbers)
 
$1,276.62 (taxes given $5,000 tax credit for trade - best offer on trade)
 
$201.20 (wheel locks and mud guards - not happy about this, but they were on the car when I looked at it - given $300 under invoice though and the tough-to-find silver color, I sucked it up)
 
$27,791.80 OTD for me.
 
Highly recommend Norris Honda in Dundalk, MD (where I purchased) and Anderson Honda in Baltimore, MD (where I might have purchased if they hadn't sold the silver an hour before I arrived). Both have friendly Internet sales departments that offer aggressive pricing.

I know coupes are hard to find but that's $300 more than my 4Dr which I bought in early Jan. (I got mine from Laurel Honda)

MSRP/Invoice for EX-L V6 Sedan is about $200-300 less than EX-L V6 Coupe.

I just looked it up and you are correct. I have not bought a 2 Dr in 14 years so I would have never guessed it was more. Although I find it interesting that the manual is the same price as the AT. I guess you learn something new everyday!!

Kisgler2,
 
Initially I felt in love with the mystic green and planned to buy that but finally I bought the metal polished w/ navi as it came to the nearest dealer while some other buyers wanted to buy it out on top of me. It was scary. You got a real good deal in term of pricing & color. Congrats !

Actually my price was for an AT model, the MT should be a little less. You are right it is getting harder and harder to find any of those leftover 07's, and if so you may have to drive a little to get to them. A friend of mine has the 07 and he loves it. Good luck.

"Demo" and "Certified Used" pricing? by personatech
Feb 29, 2008 (7:52 am)

I stopped by a Raleigh dealer after hours yesterday and was surprised to see a couple of 4dr "demos" on the lot. An EX-L sedan polished metal/black leather was particularly enticing, with 5200 miles noted on the sticker. I suspect this was really the sales manager's driver or something and not a true demo, but who knows? Anyway, what kind of discount below the current invoice should one try to negotiate for a car such as this?
 
FWIW, the dealer also had a "Honda Certified Used" Basque Red EX-L V6 no navi (not sure of the mileage) "dealer priced" at 27999 - only $700 less than the "new" sticker!!! With "deals" like that, perhaps I shouldn't get my hopes up!?... What kind of discount would be reasonable for a certified used '08?

In my search for a car, I too came across situations like that. The used was priced way more than what I paid for my EXL V6 w/ navi, granted there was room for negotiation but I just wanted a new one! On the demo end, I checked out 2, one with 3000 miles, and another with 2500 miles, the prices at the time (2 months ago) were very close to the lower mileage cars so I opted to stay away from them. Even though they say that new cars don't need to go through the break in period (not as much as older years), I would still be hesitant to buy a new higher mileage car. The first 1000 miles are important to me. I want to be sure how it was treated so if something goes wrong later I won't be blaming myself for saving a couple of hundred dollars and buying the higher ,mileage car. Having said that for a car with 5200 miles, I would expect to pay at least $2000 less than low mileage cars, not scientific but my preference.
