Re: 2009 V6 COUPE EX-L with NAVI [glenhead4] by mpp2

I think you did well. I'm 60 miles north of you in Dutchess County NY and last week my wife and I bought a 2009 V6 Sedan EX-L with Navigation, Silver with grey leather. Sticker was $31,425, car cost was $29,836 including destination.
 
We traded a 2003 Acura TL-S sedan, Silver with Black Leather and Navigation, with 90,200 miles for $8,836, leaving a difference of $21,000. Tax is 8.25% here and is only on the difference. My TL was appraised as between $8,000 and 9,000 in July over in Real World trade in values, so the $8,836 may have been an overallowance since it's 2 months later. But with a trade, the only difference that matters is the difference, and I'm very happy with the deal.
 
I bought from Friendly Honda in Poughkeepsie, NY. It's my third car from them and the buying experience and service department experience has always been excellent for me there. Hope this helps others.

I think it's a good deal. The best internet price I've been able to get in Central/Northern NJ is 22,900 +Dest+TTL from DCH Academy in Old Bridge, NJ, which appears to be run by decent folks who advised that they didn't have my color choice(black) but pointed me in the direction of a dealer in NY that did. The other dealer matched the deal via email and said the price was negotiable. Other dealers have indicated even more flexibility with silver 08 EXLs, which are in abundance even at this late date prior to 9/30/08 expiration of special financing. I'm going to do battle tomorrow.

- $$$$ discount does not matter.
 - with free this and that does not matter.
 - with free warranty does not matter.
 
What matters is the OTD price because this is what we ALL pay.

Hi "mvperez4jesus" [post# 21971 - Sep 13, 2008 (6:58 pm)] ,
 
could you please let me know if you did buy the "2008 lx automatic for 19765 OTD with 7% taxes" fron Garden State Honda? cause i called them and ref your price, they said that must be a mistake. they said they need a name or car serial# to confirm. I understand you may not want to disclose this info to a starnger, but if you could give me your first name and the name of the sales person yu dealt with "if you did buy the car". I realy appreciate it.

2009 Honda Accord Coupe EX by sergior

Looked up the invoice : 22,830
 
subtracted factory hold back: -500.50
Dealer total cost: 22,329.50
 
Offered 5% over invoice: 23,445.98
added destination cost: 670
 
HERE'S WHAT'S TROUBLING ME, the dealer said because they have to ship it from another location they would charge me a $500 dealer trade fee. I cannot verify nor debunk this cost anywhere on the net. They it's something that's standard when bringing in a car from another location.
 
So selling price with both fees is : 24,615.98
 
Texas sales tax (6.25%): 1,538.50
 
Then they pull these on me (which I can't verify until the DMV opens tomorrow):
 
VIT TAX: 51.68
Document Fee: 50.00
License Fee: 69.80
Title Fee: 38.00
Inspection: 26.75
 
Total is 26,390.71
 
Am I being taken with this dealer trade fee - what about the seemingly legit title fees? Is this a deal or not? This is the first car I've ever bought, and other than NOT attempting to offer only 3% at first I'm pleased with how I did - except that dealer trade fee is driving me nuts.

It looks like you did your homework and you recognize the dealer should make a modest profit. As far as the misc. fees listed, I wouldn't be too concerned as they seem minimal. However, the dealer trade fee seems out of line and if they won't budge, ask where the car is coming from, then suggest maybe you should go to where the car is and buy it there.

yes i bought the car for 19661 OTD with the 4 yrs registartion and etch, and new plates and 1.9-% financing for 3 yrs. i got the LX automatic, but they had the other trims in colors i did not like at all, (silver, green, gray). i got the beige, but you may be able to get like a blue or red now. they had CRV's EXL under 22000, elements 17000. I have to call my guy tomorrow (he is off today), and see if they still have them. try this, tell them you got the e-mail that TJ sent out with the prices on the Accord (mention the price on my accord, it should be ok). I don't think we are suppose to disclose the salesman or so, am i right host? it does not matter the salesman, they will only honor it if you have the e-mail. but again, i will call them and see if they can work a deal with you if you call them, will post you later. I had been checking this forum and other websites for the last 2 years, day by day, I did my research, and now i think i am pro. Not to say, but my price up to my knowlege and the prices i had seen here nation wide, is the best on a 2008 accord. the price was 17175 + destination 670. I am even planning to establish a part time business to help people out and charge a convinience fee to avoid them to pay thousands more (not 100% sure). But i am happy with my car.
