#642 of 729 Re: 2007 Pricing in Texas [yaqui316] by moochacha Oct 19, 2007 (9:43 am)
Replying to: yaqui316 (Oct 18, 2007 1:56 pm) I guess if it is a 2007, you can still go lower. I got an AWD EX Auto (brand new) for $19,500 plus tax and fees. So, there is still room for bargin.   If I remember correctly, the EX AWD Auto has a similar MSRP as the SC Auto.   I would love to have a SC but I need the AWD.

Replying to: yaqui316 (Oct 18, 2007 1:56 pm) I just purchased an 07 Element SC automatic for $19,994 at westside honda in Knoxville, TN the last 07 on the lot. Dealer wanted to move this one out. This element included the protection package. Hope this helps.
#644 of 729 Any Recent Utah Experiences? by theherder Oct 28, 2007 (8:20 pm)
My wife and I are looking at the '08 EX AWD Auto transmission Elements (along with the few remaining '07s) and and aren't getting anything near some of the great prices I've seen quoted in this forum; we seem to be hearing a lot of $24k OTD. Granted this is before the dreaded sit-down negotiation at the dealership but I've started to think getting even $23k OTD might be wishful thinking.   Two questions for the group, then:   First, anyone care to share a recent Utah buying experience -- your OTD price on an 07 or 08 EX, and who you bought it from?   Second, where does one find information about incentives/rebates/cash back to the dealer from Honda? In an earlier message yaqui316 wrote "I see that there's $1500 cash back to the dealer to them, so they're still making $500-$1000 on the deal" in describing his experience.   Thanks in advance for any replies.

Replying to: theherder (Oct 28, 2007 8:20 pm) First, there is very little front-end profit on these cars (only about $1400). On a remaining 2007 model, in the SoCal region, there was a $1000 manufacturer-to-dealer incentive. Since it is now Novemeber, that incentive may have increased, stayed the same, or gone away completly, as incentives change monthly.   There is an incentives and rebates link on Edmunds home page. Click new cars, then look towards the top of the page and you'll see it. It may take a day or two to update for November promotions.   The dealer incentive money is different than a customer rebate, as it will simply come straight off the top of your negotiated price. Meaning, if they quoted you invoice on the car and then you told them you were aware of the MFD incentive and were wiling to give it to you, then in essence you've now negotiated a price of $1000 below invoice. There should be no reason that they wouldn't allow you that money. It's only on '07's though.   Good luck!

Just purchased (3 days ago), a Galaxy Gray 2008 EX Auto FWD for $23,100 OTD (20,300 before tax, license, etc). Only "extra" included was splash guards. Of course, they tried to talk me into $5K more in the "finance dept" (aka 'let's try to get as much money as we can' dept). I did not buy dealer car alarm or warranty. Plan on purchasing car alarm through local business and warranty through myhondawarranty (dotcom).   Only thing I may regret not buying was the package for paint protection (can't remember exactly what they called it... clearcoat?). Not sure if I'll be able to find comparable service outside the dealership. It guaranteed no fading of paint color for 5 years. Any suggestions for a replacement? I live in AZ so sun exposure is a daily occurence. Replies to this message: ocautoseeker (Nov 07, 2007 11:17 pm)

Replying to: moochacha (Oct 14, 2007 7:07 am) Moochacha: Which dealer & where gave you the 07 EX AWD for $19,500? I am looking all over to find a good price. Found 07 SC with 32k and certified for $18,999 but would prefer 07 EX-AWD for $19.5. Thanks Replies to this message: moochacha (Nov 13, 2007 9:50 am)

Replying to: snowshoe1502 (Nov 11, 2007 12:49 pm) Try Boch Honda in Norwood. I did the deal over the phone/internet department. They may not have any 2007 left.
#651 of 729 Element Staying Around? by emily23 Nov 18, 2007 (11:30 am)
I received a price of $22,301.00 for an EX Auto Element ( $100.00 over invoice) and also, a decent price on my trade. I was wondering, though.....is the Element going to be discontinued, or are there plans to keep it in the Honda line? I've researched Element sales over the past two years, and they're not exactly flying off the lots. I ask this because I remember VERY well being told by a Subaru salesman that he really "saw me in a Baja." The Baja, of course, was about to be discontinued. I really like the Element, but do not want to be in a discontinued model. Even Honda resale is not immune to extinction. Thanks Replies to this message: snowshoe1502 (Nov 27, 2007 2:46 pm)
