Looking for an Accord EX-L Auto - Bay Area by wongx2
Jul 18, 2008 (1:58 pm)

Hi,
 
I'm looking for an EX-L auto in the Bay Area. I don't mind traveling either, just do the deal over the phone and bring a check.
 
Question - is it worth getting the V-6? We don't drive fast, but you know what they say about horsepower - you can never have too much.
 
What are prices that people are seeing relative to invoice or tissue as they say it?
 
Thanks,
edward

About 08 Accord lx-p auto price in Los Angeles by moonroof999
Jul 18, 2008 (2:25 pm)

I when to the honda dealer, which is beside Longo, to buy lx-p last week. The dealer said they can only offer $24988 OTD to me since my friend can only pay check but not finacing. I read the post here that someone said the fair price for lx-p in CA is around $22000 OTD. Does this price satisfy in Los Angeles with paying check? I have no idea how to negotiate with the dealer since they have tons of excuse to mark up the price. Any way to fight with the dealer with good deal? Which dealer did u guys shop at before in LA with what price?Does japan made lx-p more expensive than US made?

OTD is a useless number for comparison since everyone has different tax rates and different dealers have different doc and misc fees. What you need to concentrate on is the selling price of the car.
 
Also don't go to a dealer to negotiate at price and don't fight with anyone. Email every dealer in your area and negotiate that way. Pick the best deal, go into the dealership and pick up the car. You actually might have to pay more because of cash, since some dealers make money on the financing as well.

BlueTooth as an Accessory by smithsinc

Guys,
 
I am trying to get the Blue tooth added to the Honda Accord EX-L w/o NAV as an accessory, but I would like to know if anyone has done so already and is willing to detail the quality of the product. I am a bit concerned in that when added as accessory, the audio is not done through the car's audio system but rather via a little speaker in the kit which is placed the in the space in the overhead compartment used for the sunshades. Any advice please? Thanks

Hi Everyone:
Just want to say thank you to all the people who post to this forum. Thanks to all of you and your great advice, I just took delivery of a new Accord EX auto I4 w/out leather for $21,550 (includes: doc fee and transportation; does not include: sales tax or plates). Lots of places that I e-mailed told me that this price was ridiculous; that the dealer would change the price when I went to pick it up, etc....but this turned out not to be true. I ended up buying the car from Curry Honda in Chicopee MA and they were fantastic to deal with. They have lots of inventory and are persistent but low pressure. I also financed through Honda at 1.9% for 36 months. Overall, it was as good an experience as possible for this type of transaction. They (Curry) were great but this forum is what helped me to make the experience great for me. And I got what I think is a great price for a great car! Thanks!

2008 LX-P price in MN by jimjay2

I emailed all the dealers in SE Minnesota and the best price for the blue 08 Accord LX-P (including destination charge) was 20,039. Tom Kadlec Honda in Rochester, MN matched the price and 3 days later we had the car for a total price with tag/title/tax/doc fees of $22,063. The doc fees were $91. We did not have a trade-in or use their financing.
 
Very nice to not haggle! We let them know that we are in the market for an Odyssey sometime in the next year too, so they were nice. They tried to sell accessories and a warranty, but after I said no, there was no high pressure. Our total time at the dealership on 3 visits when we were deciding on a car until we drove away with it was less than 3 hours and the night we paid for it and picked it up, we were only at the dealership for 45 min.
 
The all season floor mats at the dealer were $150, but we went home and ordered WeatherTech gray rubber mats off the Internet (google search) for $114 with no tax or shipping.

Don't buy from that dealership, that OTD price is outrageous. Also, the "only pay check" excuse that they used against you is a way for them to make more money off of you. You should never discuss how you will be paying until the very end after you have a quote already because this is the reason why. The fair price of $22,000 OTD in the LA/OC area is correct for the LX-P, but you could do way better than that. I got my LX-P automatic from Hardin Honda in Anaheim for $21,400 OTD. Before ttl, it was $19618 (that's with destination already included in the price). And mine was Japan made. It's the same price both Japan made and US made.
 
If I were you, I wouldn't even bother with that dealership anymore because of the BS they just pull with you and that stupid OTD price they give you. They think they could take you for a fool. Well, forget them.
 
Just go send a email to all the dealership within a 15-20 miles radius and try to find which dealer will give you the best deal first. From there, negotiate with them over email. Or just call Hardin Honda and tell them that you know a couple of people that got an Accord LX-P from them for $21,400 OTD and that Hardin Honda seems friendly. Ask if you can get a very similar deal with them. I know 4 other people that got the LX-P for $21,400 OTD from them already and when you tell them, they will know that it's true.
