Replying to: satt2 (May 26, 2009 5:51 pm) Request internet quotes from Buerkle, Hopkins, Inver Grove, Bloomington Richfield, and Ken Vance in Eau Claire, WI. I was shopping last month and I got an initial internet quote from Buerkle for $23,200. I ended up getting it for $22,900 from another dealer after several days of negotiating. I let them know up front that I knew about the $1500 hidden factory-to-dealer incentive and expected to get every penny of it. I'm not sure that the same incentives last month are still available, does anyone else know? If, according to an earlier post, Accord sales were down in May versus April, there may be more hidden incentives coming out later. Don't be in a hurry. Several of the salespeople that I dealt with tried to use the "factory has stopped making and shipping 2009s, they have all of the 2009s that they are going to get". My comeback was "would you rather make a sale here and now or take a chance that this car will still be sitting here this time next month?" Don't be afraid to give them your number and tell them to talk to their sales manager and call you with their best price, then leave. I actually made the final deal on my car over the phone and I didn't have to play games with the sales manager. One other thing, check out http://www.ebhaccessories.com/, they sell discounted Honda accessories. Of the dealers that discount accessories, they had the best prices that I could find. If they try to tag you with dealer-installed options, use their prices to see how badly the dealer is trying to stick it to you. Splash guards are $68, all-season mats are $98, the trunk tray is $92, and painted body side moldings are $149. Again, don't be in a hurry and do your research. They won't mess you around if you know what you want and have other quotes in hand. Know what you are willing to spend and stick to it. They'll offer to "split the difference" to get you to come up a few hundred dollars, don't fall for it. Good luck on your adventure. |

Replying to: java5 (Jun 03, 2009 8:57 am) It was 24K even and 3.9%. I hate the hassle of buying car! I had no trade and I am cool with what I paid. Life too short to hassle with 10 dealers to drop price a couple of hundred bucks. Daughter loves her new ride! That is all that counts! |

Just quoted their list price as $29,125, and offered to me thru internet dep't at $25,215. This is supposed to be including tinting, mud guards, and something else I forgot - I think a plastic trunk protector floor mat - which they were adding on as an additional charge . I didn't want these so I was told the price for these was removed. The title fee is $28.25 and Doc Fee is $399.50, so the out the door price (NOT including sales tax of $1,985.12) - is $25,642.75 Assuming I am approved for 2.9% Honda financing for 36 months, was told the bill would be $804/month for the 36 months. (I don't know if the sales tax is also included in the monthly payments - or do I have to pay that up front separately? For that matter, is the Title Fee and Doc Fee included in the monthly payments? - I'll check on all of these questions with them tomorrow). Would appreciate all feedback on the deal being offered.

Replying to: player98 (Jun 04, 2009 10:39 pm) Tax in NV is 7.75% ( but I see the tax that was put on my estimate amounts to 7.87% for some reason - perhaps miscalculation). I did not include tax in my total figure, as this varies from state to state and I wanted people to be able to compare the deal I was offered to other deals and give me feedback as to whether it's a good or bad price, and adding in the tax would confuse the issue. I see that the salesperson left the vehicle licensing fee off of the price quote. The main thing is that I was offered a 2009 Accord Sedan Automatic 4cyl EX-L with Nav for $25,215, not including TTL. Extra charges include a $399.50 Doc Fee. Good? Bad? Can I do better? By how much? Thanks. |

alamocity- Yes, you're right, it was 6.25%. For some reason I kept thinking it was 6.5%. Sooner_chot- No, I got the EX model, with the cloth interior. I don't like leather. I went to the Honda dealer in McKinney. pembriar- The dealership in San Antonio said they would drop $3 grand off the EX-L V6, but I'm sure I could've talked them down a little more than that. It really helps to keep walking out the door whenever you don't like the number they offer you! |

I have seen the adds for the 2.9% and 3.9% but have read that some people have received 0% or the first payment was free. How was this done? was pre-approved on the AHFC website, but didnt get anything else.

Replying to: sooner_chot (Jun 05, 2009 7:26 am) first payment off is different deal, it is just a 'discount' where dealer increases car price for most of that one month payment. no free lunch, everybody who thinks otherwise has been fooled. |

Just received a great offer, no haggling at all, first email from Arrowhead Honda in Phoenix area. $25,738 or $1,455 under invoice ($45 tint makes up the difference between $1,500). I just don't know if I want to give up my 08 G35 to my wife since she does not like the Accords. Leasing terms could be better, $432 a month with first month's payment due.
