Hi Folks We signed a contract with a non refundable clause in NJ. With that, we put $500 down on an EXL/Navi that the dealership was supposed to "find." Long story short, they couldn't find one on the whole Eastern Seaboard in the Desert Mist. They only checked three states, I checked the rest! We asked for the money back, the rep took all the data and said he would take care of it. A week later, we went out of state and had a wonderful buying experience, great deal (over the phone, no money down) but a different color. A week after that, still no refund. So I called my sales rep who sold us the car and asked for his advice. It was a credit card transaction, so I knew that I could always go that route. I was advised to bring our plight to the attention of the General Manager. I knew better than to call him, and I sure wasn't going to leave him a detailed message for obvious reasons. So I got his name, his exact email address, and I sat down and wrote a narrative that detailed our experience. By 10 o'clock in the morning, the idiot who had a brain fart called my husband asking for the account numbers. It seems like he lost the paperwork. Early in the afternoon, I received a very cordial email from the GM who in essence said that he was very embarrassed. I received a telephone call from his right hand man who assured me that the refund process was finalized. Lessons learned: DON'T SIGN A CONTRACT WITH A NON REFUNDABLE CLAUSE. DON'T GIVE MONEY TO A DEALERSHIP FOR A CAR THAT THEY HAVE TO TRADE. Go online and find it yourself. Then deal with the people who have the car.

That's not a bad deal, but do yourself a favor and call the guys at Jay Honda in OH. I got a scanned offer sheet via email for only $200 over invoice for the same model you are looking at, AND they give you $100 toward airfare to OH to pick it up and some other cool incentive via coupon off the website. I bought my wife's 2003 Odyssey from them (I live in MD) and I referred 2 other people who also bought Ody's there as well. Straightforward business people, very friendly and forthright. A pleasure actually to buy a car that way. I also took his sheet to 2 local dealers near me today and the best they would do is $400 over, but of course I don't have to fly anywhere. I love the car in carbon bronze/black leather and they found one today somewhere (but close by evidently). The 4-cyl has plenty of power and niceties in the EX. I will make my decision soon and post the deal for everyone. I love these boards! Thanks to all who contribute.

Tried to buy locally (St. Paul/Mpls area) but no dealers in our area had much for availability on the 6 speed Sedans and the one that did have a car coming in (Brookdale Honda) first quoted me $25378 and then when I was ready to buy they actually changed the quote to $26850. Unbelieveable and I will be writing a letter to someone at Luther Auto (parent company) telling them how poorly this particular dealer treated me. I've bought from 2 other Luther dealers over the last 3 years and have had very good experiences.   Here is what I got from Wilde Honda:   2006 Honda Accord EX-V6 6-sp Manual Sedan MSRP (Window Sticker) Price: $27,850 Internet-only discount: ($3,232) E-price: $24,618*   *E-price includes Honda's $550 destination charge, but does not include sales tax, registration fees, any accessories or the $89 service fee.   Highly recommend them. Note that due to finding the color & model I wanted, I made it clear that I was willing to pay over $25000 and they still quoted me the lower price. That's the way it should be and I really appreciated it. They made it very easy and I pick it up tomorrow! Replies to this message: willis3 (Oct 30, 2005 2:00 am)

Replying to: stripe1 (Oct 19, 2005 8:46 am) We purchased our new 05 Accord MT from Open Road Honda back in mid-June. Overall, it was an excellent experience. We paid $1,500.00 under dealer invoice, and the only add on was a $189 doc fee. We travelled from Raleigh, NC to central New Jersey and still feel the trip was worthwhile. There was no back and forth, and we had our new car within about two hours of arriving at the dealership. The salesman was very friendly. I had negotiated with dealers in NC, VA, and MD, and several said that if we could get the car at $1,500.00 under invoice, they could not come close to the deal. We heard about Open Road via this forum. The only glitch was that they didn't process our out-of-state tag request immediately, and our temporary tag expired before our NC tags arrived. So, other out-of-state buyers might want to call and check the tag status frequently.

#9993 of 24563 '06 EX 5-speed manual by allfiredup Oct 29, 2005 (1:20 am)
I test drove an '06 Accord EX 4-cylinder/manual transmission a few nights ago. I'm very impressed with it and it's in my favorite color combination, Carbon Bronze with black interior. The dealer offered it to me for $20,250 plus TTL. A good deal in my opinion, especially since they're the only dealer in Atlanta with this color combo.   I could save about $2k if I got an LX SE model, but it's not available in the Carbon Bronze color. It also doesn't have a sunroof.   The quoted price seems really good to me for the EX manual. What do you guys think? Replies to this message: bbtaco (Oct 29, 2005 12:16 pm)

Replying to: accord_guy (Oct 23, 2005 4:34 pm) There are two pieces of information missing on this comparison page: 1) The 2005 engine is an i-VTEC 2) The 2005 has the independent Wishbone Front Suspension and the independent Wishbone Rear Suspension.   While the specifications do not deny what I say above, they also don't tell the whole story, making the difference between the model years appear to be more than they are.

Replying to: allfiredup (Oct 29, 2005 1:20 am) That sounds like a too good to be true price! That is $500 below dealer invoice. Did you buy it?
