mldj98,
 
Maybe we're saying the same thing in a different way. I was responding to the poster that said that OTD price is the best way to compare prices in this forum and to your reply that it is not because TTL is different for different locations and that therefore, one should post the price of the car including destination.
 
My point was that many times when quoting through the phone or through the internet, dealers will not include these junk fees in their price quote, giving a distorted picture of what the car will actually cost. And since this is the quote people receives (without the junk fees that will be added later when they get to the dealer), that's the quote they would normally post in this forum. My point was that to me the easiest way to compare prices was to get prices including all these fees, but just before TTL since this will be different for each location. Case in point: you mention FL charges $299-$599 for documentation fee. I bet dealers do not include this figure when giving out quotes to make their numbers seem lower than it really is. And yes, if you read through this forum you will occasionally hear people say that dealers wanted to charge them internet and advertising fee.
 
BTW, I already purchased my EX-4 AT last May and am only posting to try to help other readers that may find this helpful. So, I will stick to my point that the best way to compare car prices on an apples-to-apples basis is to get the prices before TTL, but including junk fees. Therefore, again IMO this is how prices should be mentioned on this forum to maximize benefit to other readers trying to compare prices.

One comment on an internet fee - I had one dealer in NJ (Honda of Essex) quote me an internet fee. Not that the fee could be justified, but he isn't even an internet manager. His sales price was also thousands more than two other dealers, but when the time comes to negotiate, I would laugh if they tried to fight on that fee, right before walking out the door.

Pinstripes FYI by enchilada

Some dealers are adding sticker-type pinstripes to the cars immediately when they roll off the truck. They try to tack on an additional $199 for this. If you like them, fine..... but I happen not to want them, no matter the price, even "free." I had to reject a car because of this.

What does leather add to the price? by suzannafl
Jul 19, 2005 (2:10 pm)

Both Edmunds and Kelly don't have a listing for an Accord EXL V6 automatic.
They list the EX 4 cylinder with leather.
 
I'm trying to find what I should offer for an 2004 EXL automatic V6 with 9,039 miles.
 
Can anyone give me some guidance?
 
Thanks,
S

Here's a link to KBB.

I didn't know your zip code so I had to enter mine, which you can easily change in the Zip Code Box. In the Engine box, the 4th selection, under the 4-cylinders, is for V6s. You can then select leather and what other features you have in the options box just under the Drive, Mileage and Zip Code boxes
 
Hope this helps.

suzannafl,
 
The Accord would be listed as an EX V6 Sedan or Coupe....once you have selected that model another screen should appear where you can check the box that says leather...this is for KBB...the EX V6 Sedan only comes in leather...the 4 cyl has either cloth or leather therefore it will list EX and EX-L....
Hope this helps...

Hi Chuck,
 
I'm trying to find out what the 2005 Accord EXL coupe automatic V6 costs.
To compare with a 2004.
 
I tried both KBB and Edmunds.
They have a listing for a leather 4 cylinder but not the V6.
Am I missing a step?
 
Thanks,
S
