Replying to: kyfdx (Mar 11, 2008 7:46 am)  It's interesting, though. I read on JD Power today that 2006 GC's were expected to have a 37% residual value...even on the high-end models. http://www.jdpower.com/autos/reviews/review.aspx?ID=247 Putting in a figure of $38,000 * 37% I came up with $14,060 for a residual value. This doesn't really jive with retail prices that I've been finding: KBB = $19,000 Edmunds = $15,300 NADA = $18,700 Now, trade in is much closer to that 37%, though: KBB = $14,700 Edmunds = $12,300 NADA = $15,900 If we decide to make an offer, any advice on where to start?

Was looking at a 2007 Honda SE at the Honda dealer, and my credit union was having a promotion with Enterprise Rent a car. Enterprise had the same vehicle with the same mileage for $1700 less than the dealership. Additionally, Enterprise processing fee was $200 less. Has anyone had any buying experiences with Enterprise, if so, your input would be appreciated

I'm buying a Honda Pilot EXL. Honda is offering $3500 Cash to Dealer Incentive. The TMV price of the vehicle is $29,011 - the invoice price is $30,917. Should I be negotiating off the $29,011 or $30,917 price. The best price I've received is $27,325, which includes the document fee. Thanks!

I don't see a forum for this. Frankly, I've tagged along with some people and seen the many forms they have to sign. You need a dictionary for some of the terms on these form. How about starting a forum where people post about the types of forms that have to be signed and what they mean? Perhaps scans of the forms (with the personal details whited out) could even be posted to show newbie buyers what kind of legalese and jargon is involved. My friend got a new car for cash, signed a bunch of forms, and go the following back: 1) "We Owe" 2) A pink slip with "unpaid balance due at delivery" written at the bottom 3) Bailment/temporary use agreement
