Replying to: kellysim (May 16, 2009 6:02 pm) reminder - those that are quoting invoice prices - there is a $1500 factory to dealer incentive going on through june 30th so subtract that from the invoice. Do your quotes include the $670 destination charge? I certainly wouldn't pay anything above invoice less $1500 + destination. I have a feeling dealers will be happy to sell the car and keep the holdback 2% + whatever monthly incentives they receive. I don't think in this market dealers can support these inflated documentation fees - know the DMV fees before you go you negotiate the price. Also agree to keep the trade in seperate - used car values are difficult to pinpoint - check kbb.com, ebay.com, other classified ads for your car and try to guage the market rate - you won't get that but something near that is fair for both.

Replying to: cb35 (May 16, 2009 10:00 pm) The '09 EXLs will drop some more. When you say Honda won't provide any more dealer incentive, how exactly do you think these '09 EXLs are going to move out the door? By magic? The $1500 incentive isn't getting them anywhere on the EXLs. There is huge inventory on those.

Replying to: newyearnewcar (May 16, 2009 1:41 pm) The Ody is lower and longer. That makes the minivan more convenient (load/unload everything) and more space for passenger / cargo. They both have 3.5L engine and the MPG isn't a big difference. I got the 4x4 Pilot so the AWD system will have 1 MPG less than the FWD. However the AWD is great for New England harsh winter. The steering in the Pilot feels heavier (that make the driver feels this is heavier car) in low speed than the Odyssey, but quieter than the Ody in driving, softer over bumps/holes, better handling due Pilot is about 1 foot shorter than Ody. |

Replying to: carsalesman2 (May 17, 2009 3:10 am) I maintain that it is outrageous that car salesmen target single women and minorities for inflating their pricing. What is your justification for charging a single, woman with kids $2000 more than a well-heeled businessman? The funny thing is, you actually believe that this is the right way to do business. It's not. Essentially car salesmen are the lowest form of salesperson on earth. Today, no self-respecting salesperson would ever get involved in selling cars. Besides the fact that there is no money in the business, only the lowest of low integrity people (i.e. they have no integrity) get into this business.

Replying to: kellysim (May 17, 2009 7:42 am) Then the fun begins! Had fun negotiating my '08 CR-V EX last November. I'm starting to like it since it will be a buyers market for a long time to come. Change the way you look at it and it is really fun particularly when you walk away and you get reams of e-mails with counter offers! Did this with the 5 H dealers in my area. Regards, OW |
