These seem high to me. I bought my car in MD (Live in VA) and I think you can do better. Did you try Laurel Honda? I think there is one dealer in VA (somewhere near Manassas?) and I read that someone got a great deal from them as well.

Hi guys,
I just started shopping for my new Honda and wanted to hear your opinion on price quote which I just got from a dealer in Rockville, MD:
"Accord EX-L 4cyl Sedan Automatic the price is $22,750.00 plus fees which comes out to be $25,116.10 "out the door". No hidden fees or surprises when you come in."
 
Thanks for your comments.

Can you breakdown the addtional fees. The price of $22,750 seems to be excellent

Hi there, FYI...Processing fee in MD is not a mandatory charge...it says so on the invoice and MSRP window sticker. You can by law refuse to pay it and you are within your rights. They might tell you it's mandatory, it's not. (There is a state law about it if you wanted to go through the trouble of checking it out.) Save yourself the extra $100! Otherwise, your vehicle price itself appears to be below invoice which is good (for the LX-P). Good luck.

"but I don't think many dealers would give much discount on those accessories, installed"
 
Oh yes they would...you have to ask for it! My dad has a dealer friend who says "you can refuse to pay any dealer installed option if you don't want it and didn't ask for it". Those options are marked up at least 100%, so if you decide you want the options, negotiate some. Good luck.

You might can get a discount on their inflated asking prices, but you often can't wipe out the cost. Why? They had to pay someone to put on the 3m clear bra, moonroof wind deflector, splash guards, etc. In some cases removal on the stuff would cause a problem - and they have to pay someone to do the work to take it off.
 
I have always found it to be a lot easier to just avoid dealers who add crap-o-la to every car on the lot. It just makes it easier to deal with and no hassles. There are plenty of dealers who only add stuff to the cars at the customer's request. Deal with those and no problems.

Profit is not an ugly word....it's what makes businesses thrive obviously....getting ripped off and being lied to...now those are ugly words. As long as you are not one of those salesman, then there's no problem. Nothing wrong with a profit as long as it's a fair profit and the customer is not taken to the cleaners. That's all I am trying to say here...you like to put words in people's mouths for some reason....I never said "no profit".
 
Now....what's wrong with buying a car for as low as you can? Doesn't everyone want to do that...isn't that the basis of this forum? To share good deals with other buyers? Do you go house hunting and pay the asking price if it seems "overinflated" or are you going to try to make what you feel is a fair offer to the seller? People do it every day and there's nothing wrong with it....like someone said...the seller or dealer can refuse to sell if they feel their profit is not what it should be. That's what it's all about. The market also determines how much you can get too...gas prices up, new car sales down. A couple years ago...housing prices were up and it was a sellers market and homes were hard to come by and bidders where going wild and fighting over houses, now they are down and houses are sitting on the market. Everyone looks for a good deal and a right time to buy...so don't criticize those of us who just want a good deal. Have a nice day and try not to take things so seriously.
