Replying to: kjnorman (May 17, 2005 11:38 am) Last time I did a high-mileage lease with AHFC, they used the 15K residual, then subtracted $0.10 per mile for all extra miles from the residual...   Example..   MSRP $20K 3yr/45K residual 60% 3yr/45K residual $12,000 3yr/54K residual $12,000 minus $900 = $11,100..   Not sure if they still do it this way..   regards, kyfdx

Replying to: kjnorman (May 17, 2005 11:38 am) 15K miles, which is the maximum in the standard lease program. I believe any additional miles you need you either prepay for them at 10 cents or pay after the lease at 15 cents.

Replying to: piturra (May 07, 2005 6:10 am) Phil,   FYI: I've heard shady stories from my Credit Union Rep and others about AutoWest Honda in Fremont.   Congrats on your new ride. I got a quote of $21,086 (including destination plus $45 for documentation) from AutoWest for the EXL-4I AT or $21,131 before TTL. This is the lowest offer so far, even lower than Anderson. You comment made me a little concerned. What kinds of shady stories do you hear about AutoWest?   Could you also elaborate on your comment, ...you'd probably use AutoWest Honda's quote to get another $100 off Anderson Honda in Palo Alto like I did! Does Anderson guarantee to match or beat any offers by $100? Did you have to show the internet quote?   Thanks.

#7713 of 24560 05 Accord EXV6 Sedan w/OUT Nav PRICE by austin78704 May 18, 2005 (7:13 am)
I am planning on paying "cash" on the last day of May for a brand new Accord EXV6 Sedan WITHOUT the navigation system. I'm in Austin, TX so car tax is 6.25%. I know the Doc. Fee is on $50. Then there is Title and Lisence Fees of around $180. My question is, do you think I could offer the dealership $24,700 Out The Door Price for the car? I have NO trade-in either. Some say that's not enough, others think I could offer even less. Some opions would be great! Thanks so much.

Replying to: austin78704 (May 18, 2005 7:13 am) Paying cash or financing does not matter to a dealer... well .... they probably would perfer you to finance as they would make a bit of money off the intrest rate. See what their best price financing would be.

Replying to: austin78704 (May 18, 2005 7:13 am) Don't expect too much from the Austin area dealers. Carsdirect has a price of $25,173 before TTL for Austin. I ended up going to Houston (Russell & Smith Honda) to purchase my 2005 Accord 4 months ago. The price I paid was about $700 lower than the quotes I got from Austin dealers (and about $450 below invoice). That was also the internet price I got without any negotiation. The transaction went smoothly. I highly recommend R&S. You can simply ask for an internet quote from them to see for yourself. By the way, for services, I go to Classic Honda in Round Rock. Their services are outstanding even though I didn't buy the car from them.

Replying to: austin78704 (May 18, 2005 7:13 am) The dealers that will deal low, seem to offer the same really low price all month long. The dealers that will not deal seem to be the ones that MIGHT make you a good deal on the last day of the month.   I would hunt around the area for a dealer that deals low all the time and go ahead and get the car. I would doubt that a dealer that is a lot higher is going to go that low - even on the last day of the month.   Right now, carsdirect.com for the ATL shows $23,613 for this car. This is $1,100 under invoice, which seems to be a nice deal (yes, and the dealer even makes a profit depending on the incentive they have earned). In your state with tax and stuff this would be $25,319 or so to you. So your idea of $24,700 seems like cutting a little too close to the bone for most dealers to accept.   I bet Holmes Honda over in Shreveport (for example) would make you a better deal today than any of the local dealers would make you at month's end.   Dennis

Replying to: joon (May 18, 2005 12:17 am) joon - the stories I heard dealt with promising cars (model, trim & color) and when the consumer visited, ... the promised car was not available, ... hence recommending something else on the lot!   Now, your experience above, may develop like the above scenario, ... but then again, it may develop with no problems. Just let us know how it went, ... if you end up dealing with them.   Anderson Honda   Anderson Honda called me first (Internet Manager) and my quote over the phone was $21,786 + fees, ... so I immediately asked him after he was done talking, ... if he priced matched? Well, ... he did! It was as easy as that!   At this point, I didn't know about their LOW PRICE GUARANTEE.   He asked if he could sent me an official email and told me that since his spreadsheet is a template, it will still read $21,786 + fees, but price matching would not be a problem.   Cool, they will price match, , ... so when I got the email, I read it over.   His template is as follows: Subject: Your Personal AndersonDirect Quote Selling Price $21,786.00 Tire Fee $8.75 Doc. Fee $45.00 Sales Tax 8.25% $1,801.06 DMV (Estimate) $203.00 Total $23,843.81   Right above the spreadsheet template is where I read the following ...   "We have a LOW PRICE GUARANTEE. If you are offered a lower price in writing or email from a different Northern California Honda dealer, we will BEAT the price by $100."   After I received two more quotes from Capitol and Stevens Creek Honda, ... I made an appointment with Anderson to look at the colors again in the daylight (wife pre-requisite) and test drive a 4cyl AT EXL sedan.   To get the price match + $100, all I had to do is confirmed my lower quote by bringing a copy of that lower email Dealer Quote when I visited them. I also emailed AutoWest to identify what the 'fees' were since they didn't spell out what the fees were in the 1st email. I had that but forgot to make a copy of it, ... so I showed the Anderson Internet Manager that AutoWest email from my Email InBox, using their computer.   Done, my price was $20,986 + fees = $22,961.81 OTD!!!   Now, I don't know if they will do that again, but it sure doesn't hurt to try!?!   Phil Replies to this message: joon (May 18, 2005 8:24 pm) piturra (May 19, 2005 5:57 am)

Replying to: kolonya (May 14, 2005 12:44 pm) Hello, I am also planning to buy a Honda Accord DX VP and it will be my first (new) car. I have no idea or experience about the price for this purchase. So could you please give me some details on the price you got in the end? For example, the final price (how much is it below the invoice price?) , tax, destination fee and so on. Thanks so much for your kind help.
