The $4500 Clunker plan will not be retractive. The way I read it, the plan starts when the law is enacted. Here's the section of the bill:
 
(A) GENERAL PERIOD OF ELIGIBILITY- A voucher issued under the Program shall be used only in connection with the purchase or qualifying lease of new fuel efficient automobiles that occur between--
(i) the date of enactment of this Act; and
(ii) the date that is 1 year after the date on which the regulations promulgated under subsection (d) are implemented.
 
Also, check the combined milage of your Clunker on the govt. website: fueleconomy dot gov.
The older Odysseys got 19 mpg combined which as johnm suggests is 1 mpg too high to qualify. More recent year Odysseys get 18 mpg which would qualify for the voucher.
 
Keep in mind that if you take the $4500 voucher the vehicle has to go straight to the junk yard. So you are probably better off trading the Odyssey if it's worth more than $4500.
 
If you want to read the law go to the website house dot gov and look up HR2751, which from what I'm hearing will pass the Senate this week and go to the pres. for signature.

Plus you would save the sales tax on the trade-in amount in most states....over $400 in Chicago.

Sales tax is deductible on your 2009 taxes

Deductible sales tax is another reason to buy a new car now but I'd rather save the tax then deduct it.

The 1300 is a federal income tax credit. the 4,500 is a cash voucher for trading an older and less efficient vehicle

TDI Sportwagen on its way! by mam567

After much shopping around, I finally have a car on its way to me. It's the wagon, manual, blue graphite, with roof and 17" wheels. I would rather not have the 17" wheels, but I have looked for months for a manual wagon with a roof and feel lucky that the dealer was able to snag this one that just arrived at the port. I am getting it for $500 over invoice. My other option was to have a dealer do a trade with another dealer, but then someone else would have had to drive the car. This one will have no miles on it.
 
Anyone know how long it takes for a car to clear customs and make it to the dealer? I am so anxious to have it!
 
Someone a few posts ago recommended Palisades VW, and I second that, even though in the end, we are buying the car from our local dealer. It was Palisades that originally offered me this price. Another dealer that was very nice to deal with and that was willing to give the same price was Faulkner Ciocca in PA.
