Just picked up a 04 Accord EX V6 for 24,712 + taxes and all the usual crap. Msrp is 26,860 on the 04's. Im happy with that, was looking for 500 over invoice and got it fairly easily after their inital offer of 25,203. Got the 7 year, 100k warranty for just a couple of hundred over what hondawarranty.com offered. Ill take that considering that the dealer I went to will reimburse the amount you paid if you dont use it. Would highly recommend Keenan Honda in Doylestown PA to anyone in that area. They treat people right and seem willing to negotioate because of the high sales volume they have. Would highly recommend my salesman Kevin Donahue to anyone as well. Fair and easy to talk to. Very happy with the purchase.

Don't forget trade-in by jcihak

Johnfor2: If there is any trade-in involved just stating what individuals bought their new car for is meaningless. If I had agreed to a lower trade-in (closer to KBB) I could have said that I got my '03 EX V6 for $700 under invoice. But, that number is meaningless without knowing the condition and mileage of my trade-in. The bottom line is you still may be getting a great deal well above invoice if they give you more than KBB for your trade.

2003 Accord EX V6 Leather by johnfor2

Well, I called as leeak did, and I found the same thing around the state. Most dealers really weren't too interested in dealing. Some even had demo cars with 2500 miles, but they were still looking for top dollar prices for these. The Wenatchee dealer was very agressive, responsive and came back with $24,100, which was not a great deal but fair. No trade in on this vehicle. He included the spoiler and tinting at cost to bring the price to $24,900 loaded with everything except navigation. Best I could tell I would have been looking at $800 more for a 2004 without the 2.9% option. Again, don't think I got a great deal, but a reasonably fair one.

Johnfor2 - Just to clarify a point jcihak made, I bought my car straight up and so no trade in for $23,900 + TTL. Before you make your purchase, please consider the fact that there is a "depreciation" of around $1,150 (according to KBB) comparing a similarly equiped 2003 and 2004 model and the 2004 has the XM radio. If the price difference of the two is less than $1,150, then go with the 2004. Some may argue that they never intent to sell their car, but that's not the only point, because one never knows when they'll get into an accident and have their car total loss. I say this because my 99 Accord Lx got rear-ended two months ago and was claimed total loss. And although the insurance companies don't use KKB for evaluation, they use similar sources. As a result when consider to buy in the month of Sep/Oct, don't forget to take depreciation of the previous year model into account. Sometimes you are better off paying more and get the 2004 model. The 2004 EX V6 on carsdirect is $25,213. At least you know you won't do worst than that at the dealers. Good luck and keep us posted on your purchase.
