#5957 of 24560 Re: Price on 2004 LX AT [gloh] by ktnr Dec 01, 2004 (12:52 pm)
Replying to: gloh (Dec 01, 2004 12:25 pm) Without side and side-curtain airbags, the 2004 Accord received a rating of "Poor" in the IIHS's side-impact crash test (driver sustained multiple serious head and internal injuries).   For 2005, the Accord now has front, side, and side-curtain airbags standard across the model line (along with variable inflation force, dual-threshold deployment, and out-of-position sensors). With all six airbags, the IIHS rated the Accord "Good" (low risk of injury) in the same severe crash.   Why were you eager to buy a left-over 2004 model without side-curtain airbags?

Replying to: ktnr (Dec 01, 2004 12:52 pm) The 2004 Accord LX has side airbags, just not side-curtain airbags. I was aware that this was the only real difference between the 2004 and 2005 models. I was looking at price. In my investigations of dealerships, I found that generally speaking, 2005 models were $19000. That's $1500 more than the 2004 model (well, for the price I got). I guess I should say, I went in looking for a certified used 2003 Accord that was priced at $16500. So in my mind, I got a deal. Replies to this message: ktnr (Dec 01, 2004 4:13 pm)

Replying to: brownsfan (Nov 30, 2004 8:01 pm) sounds like you got a great deal.....congrats on the new ride......what do you think your best price would've been on a 2005 LX automatic? I'm starting to shop this weekend in S. Florida, and local dealer internet email offers coming in at $18700 ......what do you think a is realistic price to shoot for, considering its a new model?

Replying to: dschek (Nov 30, 2004 7:06 pm) Please advise of the particulars. I have been quoted $24300 plus tax, tag & docs for a 05-EXV6Auto   I feel there is some more wiggle room. Any suggestions?

Replying to: gloh (Dec 01, 2004 1:28 pm) My mistake - I thought buyers had to get the 2004 EX to get side airbags.   Most side airbags when used alone are large enough to provide head protection for the driver. Thus, side-curtain airbags hold little advantage for front seat occupants or small children properly seated in the safest rear-center position.   Sounds like you got a deal then.

Replying to: ktnr (Dec 01, 2004 12:52 pm) I recently purchased a 2005 Accord LX. I started shopping several months ago. I was offered 2004 Accords at absolutely smoking prices, but I had to have the side bags and side curtain bags in the 2005. What is an extra $2K when you life is on the line?
#5963 of 24560 2005 EX-L AT price in los angeles by ac2005 Dec 01, 2004 (5:10 pm)
I was quoted $22,000 for an EX-L AT. How does this rate for a first offer?   What is the actual invoice price of this car? Most sites I've seen list $22,047 but I was told $22,697 by a dealer.   And for those who have experienced both, what are the pros/cons of leather over cloth? Thanks.

Replying to: inthemarket (Nov 21, 2004 8:03 am) Puchased a 2005 Accord Sedan LX 4cyl 5spd for 17925 before ttl at John Elway Honda in Westminster, Colorado. This is 300 under invoice and includes a 300 handling fee that they backed out of the price. Out the door was 19100. I used FIGHTINGCHANCE.COM to help me with the purchase. I saved a bundle of money and alot of my time by not having to deal with floor salesman and instead deal with the fleet/sales managers of the dealerships. I would reccomend James Braggs service to anyone wanting to go into a deal with confidence.

Replying to: fuzzyping (Nov 26, 2004 2:25 pm) Thanks for the tip. We may be driving to MD (from NOVA) if we can't talk a local dealer into a lower price. Ahh one more question. Is the Nav worth the extra money?, kath
#5966 of 24560 2005 Accord sedan LX V4 AT by ngm Dec 01, 2004 (7:44 pm)
Purchased the car last night(11/30/04) from Spirit Honda in SoCal for $750 below invoice + ttl and 1.9% financing with 0 down.   I emailed local dealers two weeks ago and received quotes for $400 and $500 below invoice. I thanked all of them and told them I would review all offers and make my decision shortly. I waited until the last day of the month and made an appointment with Spirit. The internet department called me back and told me they were aggressively selling their cars and offered me $750 below invoice(I assume that price was good for yesterday only).   PS Thanks to everyone that has posted here. The information I found in this forum has helped me research my new car and gave me the confidence to attain a great price.
