Replying to: r0yalty (May 27, 2008 7:41 am) Went back to Kelly Honda in Lynn,Ma., my local dealer. First and final offer was $21,600 +tax and doc fee w/o trade. Offered $4100 for my "96 EX 5M. $ 17,500 w/trade. Tried to get them to throw in a moon roof sheild...anything. No go. GM said no. Would not move at all. Think $4100 was good for my 77K "96. Low but hard city miles and 5 speed manual tranny not desirable. Malibu dealer offered only $3100 + $20450 for half the car that the EX Honda is !. No way! Decided to accept. Still $656 under invoice. Got wheel locks (but all new autos here get them), some free oil changes and free lifetime car washes. Also got the 0.9% financing. Black on Black. Think I'll need those free car washes. Looks like a limo, drives like a Honda! Final cost= $17,500 (w/trade) +$875 mass tax and $249 doc fee. How did I do? Thanks all for your valuable info.

">I have been reading a lot of posts on this thread for the past two months. Thanks for all the great advice on the Honda Accord. I live in Orange County, CA where there are many Honda dealers. I bought a new 2008 Accord, Sedan, Auto., LX-P from Hardin Honda on Memorial Day. It has 11 miles on the car. OTD price is $21,400. No finance and no trade in. Following is the breakdown of the price: Price $19,618.55 Doc fee $55.00 7.75% CA Sales Tax $1,524.70 ( = 0.0775 * ($19,618.55 + $55) ) License fee $128.00 Regis./Transfer fee $65.00 CA Tire fee $8.75 --------------- OTD price $21,400.00 It seems that dealers nearby coastal cities quote a higher $ than Inland Empire cities thru internet quick quote. Following are best internet OTD offers I have received in socal: Hardin Honda $21,400 Honda World Downey $21,400 Metro Honda - Montclair $21,400 Riverside Honda $21,733 Moss Bros $21,780 Spreen Honda $21,890 Salespersons at Hardin Honda gave me and my wife five stars service. The process took about 4 hours because it was a very busy day for them. We got free delicious In&Out burgers when we was waiting for a salesperson available. We have been driving Honda Accord or Toyota Camry cars for the last twenty five years. All cars lasted more than 10 years and over 200K mileages except for the current Toyota Camry 1998 with over 180K mileage. I like both Accord and Camry. I bought the Honda Accord LX-P this time because it’s rated #1 by Consumer Report and other Cars magazines. The value and the look both inside and outside are better in my opinion. The Accord is bigger, a little bit more horse power and consumes the same MPG as the Camry. I wish the Accord LX-P has a softer chair with lumbar support for the driver as in the Toyota Camry LE. I also noticed the Accord’s noise level is a little bit higher. It does not bother us. The price is about $1,400 more for Accord LX-P than Camry LE in socal. Again, thank you very much for your help. |

Replying to: iboughtaccord (May 27, 2008 5:39 pm) That's the exact same price I got my LX-P for at Hardin Honda. Here's the post I posted a while back with the exact same detail: http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.ef006d2/20455!keywords=#20455 Hardin Honda was awesome and their service was awesome also. They too give me 5 star service. For me, it just took me 1 hour and 30 min because it was last month. Also, because I came in within 30 minute of them opening that day. |

Replying to: iboughtaccord (May 27, 2008 5:39 pm) I paid about $23,100 OTD for my LX-P here in NYC, and that was the best price I could find anywhere around where I live. I am just curious, how come dealers in CA can sell the LX-P for so low? Because the invoice price for the LX-P is about $20,700. And are you sure the LX-P does not have lumbar support? Haven't played with mine all that much. Have to check that out first thing tomorrow.
