#3337 of 22369 2004 Graphite Pearl LX-V6 Sedan - Atlanta area by timmernator Dec 06, 2003 (10:07 am)
Factory fresh (4 mi. on odometer)   Sales price - $20,698.58   Destination - $490.00   Sales tax 6% - $1271.31   Title - $21.00   Out the door $22,480.89   First contact with Lanier Honda was by e-mail, then a test drive. We drove this & the Nissan Altima. Went back and forth a few times but price & features made the Honda the clear winner (Nissan places were unwilling to deal much for the 3.5 SE).   I e-mailed several other Honda dealerships for their best price, quoting my pricing research and my wish to avoid excessive doc fees & other extras, but my message to my contact at Lanier was simple - they gave me two test drives, no pressure, and I gave them the first opportunity to sell me a car.   Dealer fees (doc, secure etch) were "included" in the price. No hard sell from F&I - I already had financing and I politely refused the extended warranty.   They ordered the car for me after they couldn't find it in the southeast. $500 down in early November, and it was waiting for me when I got back from Thanksgiving vacation!   Extremely pleased with both the buying experience & the car!
#3338 of 22369 04 Accord EX V6 with Navi by birch3 Dec 07, 2003 (1:29 am)
Just bought an 04 V6 with Navi for $25,750.00. This was price of the car only!! Mud flaps, Pin Stripes, and Sunroof Deflector included ( I did not want these but they were already on the car) After reading the posts, I probably got taken on the extended warranty. I paid $1,500 for warranty which I normally never get but I thought with the Navi I might just have some problems later on. Anyway in the contract it states, if you do not use the warranty in 7 years then Honda refunds the $1,500.00 I live in TN and shopped a few places but I really do believe if I would have taken more time I could have gotten the car a little cheaper.....
#3339 of 22369 very happy with my Graphite 04 ex v6 no nav. sedan by dbehrens Dec 07, 2003 (9:08 pm)
The deal from Sacramento, CA: 23,168.94 car price Plus $75 wheel and tire protection, $45 doc fee, $5 tire fee, $1717.56 tax, $201 license. Total $25212.50 financed at 2.9% for 48 months. Car had 13.5 miles on it. My strategy: Used Edmunds to select three different cars to test drive. Went to the local dealer with my wife and we drove and picked out the exact make, model and color we wanted. Emailed 10 dealers within 90 min drive for price quotes. Took two lowest quotes and emailed two new dealers with large inventories. The dealer I bought from had 5 of my first color choice and 4 of my second color choice so they were than willing to go $300 under cost to move inventory (that is their story). The delivery process was slow but great. Soft sell on extended warranty stuff. Overall a great experience.

#3341 of 22369 Accor EX-L Lease BEST I'VE SEEN SO FAR! by wagnerhonda Dec 07, 2003 (10:24 pm)
Walnut Creek Honda in Walnut Creek California has the following: EX-L Leather 4 cyl. 995.00 drive off (total, Incl. 1st payment, Lic/Doc, 0 sec. deposit, American Honda Finance bank fee) $245.00 per month, 36 months, 60% residual on sticker of 24,950.00. Purchase price (or cap reduction price is $21,600) and the dealer pays the entire cap reduction so there is no tax on the cap reduction. I decided to do a 2 year lease at $268.00 per month (plus tax). Hey if I can get a new car every 2 years and pay $268.00 per month I'm there! No tires to buy, brakes to maintain, warranties to expire, and I get a new model every 2 years!!! This is a great way to help the economy as well Do you realize if I bought this car the tax alone equals 6 months of lease payments on a 24 month lease. This car could use memory for the power seat and mirrors so multiple drivers have their settings saved (our 91 Lexus LS400 has it), Auto locking doors (Ford has), Nicer looking gauges instead of the HUGE speedometer. Other $995 drive off lease prices right now are Civic VP 2 door $125, Civic VP 4 door $135 (all 36 month quotes). So for the person in message waxman Nov 29, 2003 10:00am who was quoted $347 with 0 drive off DON'T DO IT!
#3342 of 22369 Follow UP on lease by wagnerhonda Dec 07, 2003 (10:29 pm)
FYI the lease quote is for a 12,000 mile per year lease. 15,000 miles is about $10 more per month. Also the residual on my 24 month lease is 67% or $16,700.00. I don't plan on keeping the car as I like to get a new car every 2 to 3 years because I love the technology and innovation (XM radio, 6 disc in dash CD changer, tilt/telescopic wheel...finally (Corvettes have had that for 30 years) and heated leather seats with dual climate contrl for $268 per month are you kidding me??? I can't beleive it either.   TW

You can cancel the extended warranty within 60 days of purchasing the car and get 100% of your money back. We did this after being 'taken' on another car we purchased a year ago. We paid way too much for it so we cancelled it and purchased it ourselves for almost 1/2 the cost.   Assuming it is a genuine HondaCare warranty, you can purchase it from any dealer (that is my understanding). There are some that provide pricing online (do google searches). For an 04 V6 I have seen $975.00 for 7/100K with $50 deductible.   "I really do believe if I would have taken more time I could have gotten the car a little cheaper" - everyone thinks this. Just enjoy the car!
#3344 of 22369 sites for the invoice prices for options for Accord by ladhnur Dec 08, 2003 (8:09 am)
Does any one know how can I find the price of options (like mudguards, wheel locks)? I checks edmunds but they dont seem to have that info. thanks
#3345 of 22369 aftermarket pricing by kendrid Dec 08, 2003 (9:29 am)
While not invoice pricing, here is a site that sells genuine Honda accessories for great prices. You can at least know what you can buy the part for aftermarket. I have puchased a couple of things from them and I have been satisfied. http://www.handa-accessories.com/
#3346 of 22369 Prices Paid & Buying Experience by jc123 Dec 08, 2003 (12:00 pm)
Hello, this is my first time to use a message board, and I desperately need some advice. I'm currently looking at two sedans, a 2004 Honda EX V-6, and a 2004 Nissan Maxima SE (I know they are different levels of cars). The Honda list is $26,880, the dealer has quoted me a price of $24,743 +$90 fees (no accessories) and the Maxima list is is $30,440 dealer quote is $28,204 + $90 fees . My questions: 1. Are these good deals? 2. Which car is the best for the $$? (I have read reviews on both. The Maxima seems to have a few problems, and the Honda is not perfect, so I'm concerned) 3. Which car has the better resale? I just sold my 2000 Pontiac GT (great car, no problems, but want something different) Please help! I live in NW Missouri. Thank you
