Replying to: bran9192 (Apr 24, 2008 10:12 am) I asked other Honda Dealers in Twin Cities and all are quoting higher than 23500 for EX-L. I am not sure why the prices in Minneapolis/Twin Cities are $500-600 higher than compared to SC, NC, NJ and NYC.

Replying to: bran9192 (Apr 24, 2008 9:04 am) I am a CR fan and long time subscriber, but all the info they want to charge you for is available free of charge on the web. You need to know invoice cost and hold back and dealer incentives (if any) - all this is available online for free. Love CR, but their "car buying report" is a rip off. Dennis

I'm interested in purchasing the 08 EXL-with Navi (I4). I was wondering if I would come out better waiting for the summer Honda clearnce sale in July or use the costco program. I haven't started requesting quotes, wondering what are some good dearlership in the NC area to start with?

Replying to: honda124 (Apr 24, 2008 11:06 am) 26495.00 Honda MSRP 24263.00 Co-op advertising adjusted invoice -727.00HOLD BLACK (only 485.00 is the HTB - the other 242.00 covers fixed costs) -400.00 Honda special advertising adjustment (4cyl Accords only - payable ONLY if you hit 110% of your volume Honda sets for your store) 24263.00 -400 Special "super secret" Ad money -485.00 HTB =23378.00 adjusted invoice cost. DO NOT COUNT the other 242.00 of the holdback as it ment to cover interest occured while in-stock. Now think of this: RB Honda pays a salesperson a $150.00 "mini" to sell a vehicle and $75.00 to clean it for delivery. Their adjusted cost is then $23603.00 - actually, not just their cost but all of our cost. Hopefully, this sheds some light on the pricing. For the record - my store is one that is ABOVE $23500.00 Good luck in your price shopping. RB is a good store and the internet gal is super sweet. I used to work there up to 03/01 (read about me in rate your dealer  )

Replying to: mplshondadlr (Apr 24, 2008 1:55 pm) Thanks for your input on pricing of Honda Accord. So far RB Honda has been offering the best prices in Twin Cities. I wonder why other Twin Cities dealer are not able to match or better the prices.

Replying to: bran9192 (Apr 24, 2008 9:00 am) I had used the INTERNET for locate the best price. Then in Feb I received an E-Mail from that dealer (I guess all their E-Mail inquiries were on their data base) that they were taking $500 off of all previous INTERNET prices if you bought a car from what they had in stock. So it is my thinking that car sales are worse now then they were a few months ago because of the price of gasoline. So you should be looking for a price at about $1500 below dealer invoice. For sure don't pay over dealer invoice. |
