#5990 of 24566 Question for 3c3 by bobst Dec 04, 2004 (6:20 am)
OK, how much under invoice? Note that I am not offering to pay any Dealer Processing Fee.   Do the rest of you agree that I should make an offer under invoice? Replies to this message: cheapiam (Dec 04, 2004 9:59 am) skipper53 (Dec 04, 2004 2:39 pm)

Replying to: bobst (Dec 04, 2004 6:20 am) Right now, it would be difficult not to get a price under invoice for the Accord (not including the new Hybrid). I am still looking, but have gotten prices $300 under. Be careful though, as some dealers pad the contract with unwanted items like etched glass fees, high doc fees, etc.   Good Luck!
#5992 of 24566 unwanted items and doc fees by bobst Dec 04, 2004 (12:28 pm)
I am not offering to pay for any options, doc fees, warranty, or anything. I plan to offer invoice + transportation + dealer profit. Then I will add on sales tax + $50 for tag/title.   Exactly how much should I add, or subtract, for the 'dealer profit'? Replies to this message: 3c3 (Dec 04, 2004 1:12 pm)

Replying to: bobst (Dec 04, 2004 12:28 pm) Subtract holdback (3% of MSRP) from your formula. Use $0 for "dealer profit". That should be the maximum.

Replying to: bobst (Dec 04, 2004 6:20 am) My quotes for an Accord Coupe EX-v6 are $100 to $250 below invoice. Add tax, title, reg., but no other fees applied.

why would you of all people be asking for car buying advise? Make your unacceptable offer, walk out, and head to the next store like you always do!   If you start talking about holdback like one poster suggested, you may get a very cold response. Contrary to popular belief, it is NOT bottom line profit.   Good Luck!

Just wondering what you guys think is a good price for a 2004 DX 5spd. I was quoted $13,999 at the dealer in Southern California. Thanks! Replies to this message: pbchoclovr (Dec 06, 2004 3:20 pm) isellhondas (Dec 06, 2004 3:53 pm)
#5998 of 24566 Hi Isell by bobst Dec 04, 2004 (8:32 pm)
No, I am not asking for any "car buying advice". I just need a little help arriving at a price to offer.   Skipper I should offer $100 to $250 below invoice.   3c3 suggests I offer about $600 below invoice.   These prices seem very low because in the past I have offered about $100 to $300 over invoice.   The Edminds TMV is about $900 over invoice.   No, I would never mention the word 'holdback' when buying a car. As you know, I just make an offer and wait to see if it is accepted. Replies to this message: 3c3 (Dec 04, 2004 8:44 pm)

Replying to: bobst (Dec 04, 2004 8:32 pm) The carsdirect.com price for Accord 2.4 LX/EX in my area is $400 below invoice. I think $600 below invoice is already too high.
