Shopping for Honda Accord EX-L 4 cylinder auto trans without navigation in state of TN.
Sales tax is around 8% for the state.
Wondering if others would share good deal encountered in Knoxville/Morristown/Chattanooga area.
I also like to discuss with you to get some more details. Can you email to rajesh_sabai@yahoo.com.
I really appreciate it. Thanks
OTD price: 18996
Sticker= $21,520.00
Invoice= $19,583.54
Sales price= $17,900 (inludes dest. fee).
+ taxes (8.95%), tags, extended warranty, etc=$21,024.33
- trade-in (4200)/cash down (500)= $16,324.33
I think I can deal with paying $16k for a brand new car, especially one that has an invoice of $19k.
BTW - If I refer you to him, he'll buy me dinner

What was your trade in?
If you can help at all and your contact can work some magic, it would be appreciated.
I am looking for an Accord SE 4 cyl. I am going to buy as soon as anybody gives me a price of 19K or less OTD.
One dealer is ready around $19750 OTD
I found other buyers getting south of 19K.
Personally, I will take the current generation over the old Accord if it's the same price. However, I wouldn't get the Camry cuz of the transmission issues. So, if they're the same price, my choice is the Altima. IMO :shades:

What dealership are you talking to?
kevina1- I asked for the same salesman you used, and while introducing myself I asked if he could give me as good a deal as Kevin from New Hampshire. I think that comment got passed to the sales manager and may have helped my transaction go smoothly. Thank you for posting your sales details. Enjoy your new SE.
I just bought an 07Honda Accord EX-L sedan auto trans 4 cyl at 23133.00 (OTD). No navigation.
The sales tax for the state was 7% plus an $80.00 wheel tax fee. Figured Tag and Title was about $100.00. The next closest offer I got was 23500.00 OTD and another dealer that was the closest to my home residence wouldn't sell at $23500.00 In my opinion you probably could squeeze a few more hundred out of them. Maybe offer 22550 initially and then go up to 23000 and see what happens. If they dont sell at 23000... maybe work up from there.
Wife loves the car so far. Hope this helps.
You've got mail.
When you're dealing with Landmark Honda, make sure that they don't try to "switch the numbers on you", as they have a reputation for doing just that.
Also, not sure if you saw ddwmew's post (#16032) which is a follow up to my original post. He paid almost $1K less than the deal that we had originally negotiated at Landmark but fortunately and luckily for him, Landmark's inability to deliver a car for him that day when we both there turned out to be a blessing in disguise for him and he ended up at Sport Honda for an EX that amounted to almost $1K OTD cheaper than my deal!
Regards,
David
I believe ddwmew's deal is now the lowest price for an I4 EX 5AT on the forum!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
If it wasn't for a time crunch with my purchase (the car is actually for my wife), I'd have joined ddwmew with the purchase at Sport Honda. His OTD price is almost $1K below mine. Wow!
Overall, we're happy with our EX especially my wife.
Regards,
David
Are you looking for SE?
I got that at Luther.
kumar2180 at gmail dot com. Feel free.
Great to hear about your great deal!
I am just wondering whether you can email me the name of the sales person you talked to in Sports Honda, and/or a scanned copy of your sales invoice to let the sales guy match the price. To protect your privacy, you could mark off all your private information... My email address is jetfish80 at gmail.com
Thank you...
jetfish
Thank you so much for your reply, could you please give me a copy of your invoice of the car or a complete list of the fees you paid? You can mark your name and address off if you want to protect your privacy!
I sincerely appraciate your help!

FYI - He's a good guy, no BS.
Generally if your tax rate is 8%, multiply car price by 110% and your OTD numbers should be around there.
FYI -- I would NOT deal with BROOKDALE HONDA!!! It was a waste of time. They were not willing to come down at all from the invoice price and stated that they doubted I was getting REAL prices from other dealerships as any dealership that came down in price below invoice price was taking a financial loss. However I know different as all the other quotes I've gotten have been anywhere from $1,000-$1,500 below invoice. Bottom line, Brookdale was rude and unwilling to negotiate.
The quote I got on the SE was from Richfield Bloomington Honda. However, after I looked at it again, the sales person added the numbers wrong. I contacted him again and he stated the actual quote is:
2007 Honda Accord SE 4cyl AT
$18588.00 Selling Price (destination included)
$1208.22 Sales Tax
$286.00 Plates + Tabs
$35.00 DMV transfer fee's
$50.00 Dealer Documentation fee
$20167.22 TOTAL DUE
They said it's impossible for them to get close to $19,000 OTD. If you can find something, go for it.
I'm still working on my quotes for an EX or EX-L.
Congrats on your EX purchase and great deal!
Can you also please email me a copy of invoice to davosco@aol.com crossing out any sensitive info? Thanks in advance.
Dave
However, just in the last 2 days, I have updated quotes in the local market ranging from 1K-2K below invoice. They use Edmunds' invoice as benchmark. I am trying to get somebody down to 3K below, but no luck yet. Basically, I will buy the top line at 3K below invoice.
Anybody has any luck yet in this market?
Thanks.

Is the $17,199 price for the SE the OTD price? Or the price before TTL?
Anyone else in Southern California get a fantastic price for an SE or an EXL? I'm looking to buy before the end of the month, if possible.
Thanks!
Congratulations on your purchase! Can I also please be included as one of the folks you send a copy of your invoice/pricing doc of the car too?
I sincerely appraciate your help!

Thank you!
I would be interested in knowing where you are getting the under invoice pricing in D/FW. I'm in the Austin area and the dealers here historically do not price under invoice without factory incentives (which I don't believe are in effect now). I'm looking at V6 EXL's. I did some serious shopping a year ago, but backed off. I'm just now reengaging in the process.
