Thanks for the all the tips. I am ordering/buying a 2009 Accord V6 EX-L 6M w/Navi the week of 1/12. I say "order" because I want the Belize Blue with Black Interior - all the dealers are telling me they will have to request in their next allocation which happens the week of 1/12. Supposed to take 2-3 months to get it. My best price right now is $27.9k w/o destination charge or $800 under invoice. Going to try to wring out a few more dollars in the few days. Any suggestions on a good "below invoice" target? |

| >>I was quoted the exactly same configuration was 16,210 OTD in NYC<< Did you mean to write $26,210 OTD? That would make more sense. I guess anything's possible, but based only on the reaction I got from the other dealers I talked to (including the one who called me today to see if I had actually gotten the $21.8k deal), I would say a 2009 Accord sedan EX-L 4 cyl for $16,200 OTD is a fantasy. | |

Replying to: memv (Jan 02, 2009 10:04 am) It might help you a little bit if these 2 cars that you have found in SA are at different dealerships that are not within the same dealership group. At least then you can get a price from each and compare. See what each could be bought for in SA and compare this to your local dealers price. (if he is willing to search around for one like I mentioned in the earlier post) EP to SA is a LONG way away to go on a wild goose chase for a car, hoping the deal is legitimate, the seller is honest, and the car is still available. Another idea might be to request an internet quote from another dealer that is closer {someone you haven't contacted yet}, like Roswell or Odessa, specifying exactly what you want. They may be able to snag one for you for a good price. A dealer can "see" whats out there in your region better than you can by searching around on various dealer websites. A dealer may tell you that none are available when in actuality a few ARE out there....its just that the two dealers may not be on friendly terms as far as doing a dealer trade because of a previous bad experience, dealership policy, or some other baloney. Personally, I would have to hear it from several different dealers before I would finally accept that my favorite choice doesn't exist. If only 2 exist in a 500 mile radius, then be prepared to pay whatever they want. How far and to what extreme you want to go is totally up to you. just my 2 cents... again, good luck. |

I just purchased a Silver 2009 Honda Accord LX-P with automatic transmission from Precision Honda in Jasper, AL for $21,535.45 OTD. Not sure if this is a good price compared to the national average, but it was the best price I could get on the last selling day of 2008, or at least according to the dealer. They threw in front and rear mudguards no charge. It looks like I got it at $1,119.06 under invoice. Invoice that I see on the car is $21,262.01. The DOC fee was steep at $499, but the closest competitor price was $21,800 OTD. Dealer 2 claimed their deal was better because they included pinstripes and appearance protection package, but I figured I would save the $265. Like I said, I am not sure if I got a good deal, but carsdirect.com has the sales price on this vehicle at $21,312, and no other dealer in a 100 mile radius of Huntsville, AL would match or beat this price, so I went for it. I will probably regret it in a couple of months if the economy does not get any better and more dealer to manufacturer cash comes out, but at least I can feel good for the night. I also got the 3.9% financing. If you are in the Birmingham or Hunstville area, or anywhere in between, give Precision Honda a try for a quote. They have always had the lowest price when I have purchased. I purchased a 2008 Honda Pilot last year, and I got the quote from Precision Honda a day late, and as I remember it, they had a price of about $300-400 lower than the price I bought at, so they are worth a try. I Paid: Price: $20,142.95 Tax, Title, Tags, Doc & Prep Fee: $1392.50 Total: $21,535.45 OTD APR: 3.9% |
