I am in Houston Texas. So $2,000 under invoice would give me a target price of $22,800. I should not try to cut into the hold back at all?
If getting that extra 100 bucks is so important to you, and you have nothing better to do with your time, and you are indifferent as to whether you get a 2007 with the features you want and the color you want, and don't mind driving an hour away to try to save a 100 bucks, then go for it. You may find a particular dealer and a particular salesman who just needs one more car to get some bonus. On the other hand, you may not and have to leave to go elsewhere.
Nobody understands your situation better than you, but there comes a point in time where it's not worth it for you to try to save an extra buck. Likewise there comes a point in time for the dealership that they'll deem your deal not worth it and they'll just sell it to the next person in the door...whether they come in tomorrow or next week/month.
The best time to have bought a 2007 was about at least a month ago when the deals were as good as now, and supply was high. You're on the otherside of the hump now, and you should be seeing less inventory choices available.
You can worry yourself to death forever, wondering if you could have gotten an extra 50 off. You won't find a great value deal like 2007 accords for another 5 years.
I don't see that the price that was quoted in post# 17368 was under invoice. $28,870
My estimate for invoice is 90% of MSRP.
$30,260 @ 90% = $27,234 plus $635 destination= $27,869.
So I think the dealer sold it for $1,000 over invoice.
The negotiation got stuck yesterday. The dealer's last price was like 20500 when we left. He emailed us and asked not to miss this deal. How can we continue the bargain today? What should be a better price? 20000? Anyone having experience please help us out. Million thanks
Oh, I don't know about that! Hyundai fans will tell you the Sonatas are the best deal going.....
Ok, I think I'm getting my final numbers. I am debating between an '07 Civic w/ Nav and an '07 Accord w/ Nav (pref Coupe, pref auto).
The best '07 Civic Coupe w/ Auto & Nav price that I am getting in the DC/Baltimore area is $19,390 + tax, tags, & dealer processing. The best '07 Accord Coupe EXL-Nav Auto price I am getting (which was just emailed to me) is $22,990 + tax, tags, dealer processing.
Haven't tried to push these numbers in person yet though. So on Monday, I'm going to try and get that Civic price lower. If I can, then I'll go with the Civic. Otherwise, I will go for the Accord since it's $3,500 more.
There's a price difference of $5,000 between the invoice price of both cars so I feel as if there should be that sort of savings between the two in prices.
However, the difference between Edmunds TMV price between the two is just around $3k ($20,754 on the Civic vs. $23,819 on the Accord) so maybe I have tapped rock bottom prices and really can't negotiate more.
Let's see what happens.
I don't really care if I push too hard or wait too long to lose out on the Civic because there are still quite a few '07 Accords w/ Nav around the DC area. At the end of the day, I really would rather have an Accord anyways. But I want the Civic if I can get it for the lowest price possible.
Is it just, First Mo Pmt, Sec Deposit, Acq Fee, and Tags?
Any idea what the Sec Deposit and Acq fees are?
Also anyone know what the Rear Wing Spoiler or the Rear Camera accessories should go for?
Thanks!
They gave me 10.5 for my 04 (same model lighter gray) with 82k miles, had a tree fall on it last month 4k worth of damage to hood back window and trunk. Repair looked good on the surface but I'm no expert. Seemed like a good deal.
I read that the stereo doesn't play mp3 recordings but don't understand why? The 04 plays them. Doesn't really matter as I spend most of my time in XM or am sports radio. I like the oil life indicator.
I submitted requests through CarsDirect.com and got to this price point....
Any one have any thoughts on how much a 2003 Accord EX V6 6spd coupe with 24k original miles in MINT condition should go for as a trade or even private sale? I know the KBB and Edmunds trade values of the 2 Dr EX V6 Coupe, but they do not list the EX V6 6spd which has a lot more going for it than the regular EX. I know the value will be affected by the currents deals on he 07's, but want a more accurate estimate before approaching a dealer regarding a possible trade.
Here's a link to a dealer who sells the wing spoiler and rear camera so you can get an idea on pricing.

What are the minimum fees needed when leasing an 08?
It really depends on your lease which depends on your credit. You're probably going to need to get that info from the dealer. However, if you want an IDEA on what some of the payments are like, you can click this link on the honda web-site that has some sample lease terms

The new car had 23 miles on it. I went to pick it up, but heard rattling sound from the back, it looked like something behind the backseats in the trunk. The salesman said he is going to get it fixed today for me to pick it up.
Do you think its a good deal? Or should I be worried about the rattling sound for a new car that's under the weather for much of this year?
Thanks in advance.
$2k below Invoice Price: $19159

Total: $20,303 + TTL
I could have saved about $300-$400 more by traveling out of state at the time, but I didn't feel it was worth my time & effort/hassle. Prices dropped by about $500 more in August, but I am happy with the deal I got. My goal was to get a 2007 Accord at a good price, not the lowest price possible. This was in Queens, NY.
hi,
are you saying you bought or were quoted invoice of 25,415 + destination charge of 635 total 26,050 no other charges like doc fees or d&h.? for a 2008 4dr sed honda accord ex-l v6 automatic. a car that has a 28,060 +635 or 28,695. sticker price?
would you please send me an email at pbraun3219@aol.com telling me of your good fortune and the dealer and city and state and tel number so i can try to buy at the same price.
thank you so much . i love this forum.
I'm in New Hampshire. Very surprised with the deal, was planning on waiting another year. Was also going to go to a 4 cylinder but mileage isn't all that different and I wanted traction control. My car payment actually went down by 12 dollars and that's is 12 dollars lower than my car allowance. A real no brainer!
We will have to wait for real world owners to post to see how this plays out for the 2008 Accord.
I am excited!!!!

Dealer 1:
2007 Honda Accord EX-L Coupe with Leather, Navigation & ASutomatic Transmission: Alabaster Silver & Cool Blue Metallic $22,990 + $100 = $23,090 * .05% tax = $1154.50 + tags $195 = $24,439.50
Dealer 2:
2007 Accord EXL-Navi 2dr automatic in Cool Blue = $22,889 + $100 processing fee = $22,989 * 5% tax in MD = $1149.45 + tags $195 = $24,333.45
Dealer 3:
$24,400 out the door for 2007 Silver ACCORD EXL-NAV Auto Sedan (which means the price + freight should be close to Dealer 2 at around $23,950ish)
Dealer 4:
2007 Accord EXL-Nav Auto Sedan: $22650 plus tax, tags, freight and $100 processing

Are these low enough compared to what the best deals are that people are getting on similarly equipped '08's (basically top of the line w/ no V6).
Also, if I hit a standstill on price, I want to negotiate options in. What should I try to get. Maybe a spoiler if I get a coupe? How much do you think that would cost the dealer? One of the things I really wanted to try and get is a new Navi DVD for my '04 Accord EXL-Nav Sedan Auto. There's a lot that seems out of date now in that car.
I really wanted that iPod thing that Honda offered themselves (musiclink I believe) but it seems that's not being offered anymore since it wasn't working right - is that correct?

Its from a dealership in Hollywood, FL. 22,400 OTD. Here is the breakdown:
Selling price: 20283.17
Dealer service fee: 599.95
Florida battery/tire fee: 6.50
Sales tax 6%: 1253.38
County surtax 0.5%: 25.00
MVWEA: 2.00
Registration/tag/title: 230.00
Total 22400.00
I feel like I made a good deal. What do you think?
:shades:
Isn't this the Australian version of the Camry?
Have to wait now!
Yep I got it from there last night. I requested quotes from dealers all the way from West Palm Beach to Miami. Pretty much everyone is saying around 23000 OTD. One dealer in Ft. Lauderdale agreed for 22500 OTD. Then I asked Maroone if they can beat it. He agreed for 22400 so I went with them.
Personally I found that if you mention that you are ready to buy TODAY if the price is right, the dealers are more aggressive in their quotes.
One thing I noticed is that these dealers do not have very many 2007s (EX-L 4-cyl Auto sedan) in stock, or it seemed like they didn't. So if you have a color preference and in need of a car, this is a good time to buy the 2007 Accords.
For me, luckily, I found the car with my color choice (Graphite Pearl/Gray leather interior) and price.
Personally I would not pay more than 20000. So yes, I think 20000 is a good deal.
