We purchased our T&C on eBay last year from a seller whose username is ramscoenterprises. So far we've been very pleased. There were features that were important to us, and some that weren't that in retrospect I wish I'd held out for. We bought it right at a year ago in October 2006. According to the paperwork, its manufacture date was February 06. It had been owned by a business in OK, and had 8,000 miles on it. It was the base model, and did have things like a CD player, dual control air, Stow 'N Go, etc. It doesn't have the power doors, something I do think I'd have been glad to have. I especially wanted leather seats (easier to clean!) and a DVD player/screen. That particular seller has those custom installed, which is actually nice (at least the one we have is) because our screen is 10", which is very nice and big. It also swivels... and it did come with wireless headphones. We paid just over $18K for it. He lives in Texas, and there are two states between us. The bid price included free delivery, but when I realized I could fly there one-way for about $100, it would just take one day to drive home, and he'd knock a few hundred off our price, I picked it up myself. It was very easy - they met us with the van at the airport and we were good to go. In the last few weeks it's started making an odd sound that reminds me of a dentist drill. It only lasts 5-10 minutes. If I warm it up before driving it it doesn't make the noise at all. Fortunately, it's still got another 12K miles before the warranty is up! |

Does anyone know if dealers are discounting 08's below invoice?

Got myself a red 07 T & C for 14950 + tax . We also had credit card incentive of about 900 for a new car, reducing the price to about 14k+tax. Just the base model, nothing fancy, short wheel base, as we did'nt need the extra space and is easier to park in the garage. We'll see how it works out in the long run, plan to keep it forever like (> 10 yrs) we did with the other cars we had. The 08s are nicer, but they aren't discounting them yet. |

Replying to: timothyf (Oct 05, 2007 6:21 am) My 06 Honda Odyssey Touring is about to go out of warranty and needs new PAX tires ($1200 to replace). So, I'm thinking about the 08 T&C. My local dealer gave me the standard "This is the hottest van out there--demand is far outstripping supply." To which I responded: "OK, call me in December when you and the van are cold."
