just paid 24600 (not including TTL) for 09 EXL V6 with wing spolier, body molding, door edge guards, paint and upholstering protectant, and moon roof visor. The add-ons list for about $1600. This was in St. Louis, MO.

I used this same forum at that time and I found someone who had bought the 2005 Accord LX for $18,000 OTD in northern virginia. I figured $500 over that price was good enough for me and I did not have to travel very far. The only issue I have with these dealers is the amount of time you have to spend with the finance guy: two hours! I don't want any of that additional stuff I just want the Honda financing and the car. I have not started to call around to the dealers so I don't know if Asheboro Honda would give me as good a deal. I also have an older car that qualifys for the "Cash for Clunkers" rebate ($3500 from the gov) so I'm curious to see what the car dealers do about reducing the new car price.

A good price for any Accord right now is invoice - $1500 or lower. Don't know the invoice? Click on the NEW CARS link at the top of the page.

I just got a 09 Accord LX 4 cyl AT in Des Moines, IA. Vehicle was $18,400. Total OTD was $20,368.
 
Good deal?
 
I shopped around with different working with various internet managers until I got this deal. I feel I did pretty good, all things considered.

Negative - that invoice number is inflated or does not give the entire picture. Right now Invoice minus $1500 is only $18,900 before TTL and I know for a fact that you can get the car for about $19,250 OTD in NC (TTL is about $1000). One of my relatives used to sell Toyota's and he would tell me how people would come in with those "Invoice" numbers. His response was "bring them in. I'll sell cars all day at those prices". It's possible we just don't know what the dealer holdback (3%?) is on top of that $1500. We are also coming to the end of the month which is when dealers want to sell as many cars as possible to make their numbers. What's the best day to buy a car "the last day of the month".

I think that is a little high - Base price for a 2009 Accord V6 EX-L with navigation is $26,100.00 plus wheel locks,($73.80 less 20% = $59.00)+splash guards1 ($138.60 - 20% = $111.00) )Remote start (678.20 - 20% = $539.00) + RVcamera ($755.00 - 20% = $604.00) These accessories can be found at about 35% off MSRP on the internet but you must install the options yourself. If the dealer has already added these options that will really increase the MSRP price.
If it were me, I would offer the dealer $26,100.00 for the car and another $1,300.00 for the extras that the dealer put on the car. At least you would be paying the dealer 20% less (Vs. 35% internet shopping)and the 20% less price I included the installation fee a customer would pay getting this aftermarket from the dealer.
Total price before Tax and License = $27,400.00 plus $222. = $27,622.00 plus 6% (approx. $1600.00)do not tax installed price of accessories only the parts = TOTAL APPROX. OUT THE DOOR PRICE = $29,000.00. Without extras the OTD price on the car would be $27,666.00 plus the $1300.00 options = $28,966.00 About two thousand dollars less than $31,000.If you work the figures I gave you, you can get an accurate OTD price put for the car do not pay more than $29,000.00.Hope that helps. Good Luck!

Did you see the part where I said "or lower". You can't depend on a holdback since it decreases as the car sits on the lot. Honda holdback is 2%. You want them to sell below invoice and give up the holdback, where should they make their money? That secret slush fund that urban legends are made of?
 
BTW there are many people that feel that "buy the last day of the month" is the worst time to buy. Since everyone thinks that's the best time, there are lots of customer at the dealership. Buy before the end of the month and salesman are standing around waiting to make a deal in empty showrooms.

Steven, just sent you details of our purchase by e-mail. Please reply on this forum as to how your dealing with Steve Bailey Honda went, OK?
 
In Oklahoma, tax/title/license fees are not charged by the dealer. OK Tax Commission charges these fees (3.25%) when you register within 30 days. So OTD price does not include $725 or so on a $23000 purchase.
 
Good luck!

I'm only telling you from personal experienced based on someone who used to sell new Toyota's for a living. Business was so bad last year he had to give it up. Typically a dealer would like to see a minimum of $500 profit per new car sales. Most of the money they make are on used cars (trades) and service (coupon book keeps people coming in for every little service). He was always amazed at some of the deals that were made at the end of the month while full retail was the starting point at the beginning of the month.

Your 2005 Accord is definitely a good deal. You figure in recession, we would
get at least similar kind of deal but No. The dealers just don't want to give you
the car.

 
'05 was the last year before the mid-cycle redesign. That's why s/he got a good deal on that. I believe people will be able to get better deals next summer for the '10 Accord.
