They're giving me about $2k over Edmund's TMV trade-in value on my 2005 MDX ($30k).
Any thoughts before I throw 37 grand out the window?
Can you tell me what dealership gave you that pricing. I live in the Kansas area (10 hours drive away from Chicago). At $100 under invoice, I can fly there & drive the van back!
Thanks,

When I bought my Touring R&N my salesman (from whom I have purchased a number of vehicles) said that while he ordinarily doesn't recommend an extended warranty, I might want to consider the fact that the price for just the in-dash navigation system itself was $4800!
I have yet to buy an extended warranty because I typically don't keep cars very long but will do so if I still have it when it is approaching the end of the manufacturer's warranty.
You are right, Nav is what worries me too.
Is there really that big a difference between the two models? is one harder to find than the other one? I'm assuming leather seats are the main difference?
I'm happy about looking on the internet for pricing and am willing to drive pretty far to get a good deal on one, since i only buy a car once every 15 yrs or so. the problem is i've been looking so long my eyes have crossed and i can't tell what's good/great/take it and run. I stopped looking for an 05 cause it doesn't seem like any are left??? websites? dealers who seem reasonable? Thanks!
Thanks
Any comment will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks to all on this forum. helped me to find our dream car at a decent price.
So is thais a deal we can go ahead. I am still thinking there shoud be something better?
I have been looking for three months for the car in the Northeast and it seems with this model, $500-750 over invoice w/ dest is a good deal.
Needless to say, with their poor customer service at LEESBURG Honda, they refused to let us out of the deal....unless we give them $1k. EVEN after all their bragging on how they could get full price from anyone who comes in and that they'd have NO problem selling it. We never even DROVE the car b/c the day we were there the wiring hadn't been done yet. It wasn't drivable. It was never taken off the lot and we never brought them our payment. They were ruthless. We ended up paying the $1k simply b/c we still will be saving over $1500k to get it elsewhere.
BOTTOM LINE is this...in the DC area you MUST be willing to go a good 40-50 miles outside the area to get a deal on an Odyssey. And by all means, if they tell you the deal is only good THAT DAY and will not give you the opportunity to bring in a trade in....leave that dealership immediately! :mad:
I am sorry to learn about your experience. If you ended up paying that $1000 for nothing, I would take it to Better Business Bureau and try and recover it. There are some bad dealers out there. They should not get a free pass on practices like this. Heck, I would even take it to Press.
After a stressful week of obtaining quotes from over 40 dealers in PA, MD, VA, and NC (and even one in MA based on an earlier posting here) and trying to find one of my wife's top two color choices (Nighthawk Black Pearl and Midnight Blue Pearl), I was about to give up until I received a quote from Faulkner Honda (Harrisburg, PA) yesterday. Their no-haggle price was the lowest at $222 over invoice and this morning, I was told they had the Touring R&N in Nighthawk Black Pearl, even though I did not tell them that was my preferred color. Although my wife and I were little worried about driving two hours with our two 3 year old daughters only to find the vehicle night not be there, we were thankfully proven wrong. Now I am home with a very, very happy spouse and her 2006 Odyssey Touring R&N.
My take home price was $35,120 + $550 (Destination Charge) + $45 (Doc Fee) + TTL. We were in and out in less than 90 minutes, and it would have been less except we had to wait for our salesperson to finish up with another customer and they had to correct the original purchase order, which incorrectly had a price of $33,120 ($2,000 under quote), which I caught and honestly informed them of. The icing on the cake was they had no problem matching the best Honda Care extended warranty quote I found online (thanks to reader suggestions on this board) from Bernardi Honda.
As many of the readers on this board were, I was disgusted at the quotes for most of the Washington, DC area dealers, which ranged from MSRP ($38,795) down to maybe $1,000 less. Surprisingly, most of the best quotes came from the Philadelphia area dealers, all less than $1000 over invoice, and they were all very professional, unlike a some of the DC area dealers. The quotes from the NC dealers were not as low as some readers stated on the board earlier.
So besides Faulkner Honda, which provided one of the best car buying experiences I ever had, I give kudos to the following dealers for both relatively low quotes and professionalism: Heritage Honda of Westminster (MD), Ourisman Honda of Laurel (MD), Piazza Honda Philadelphia (PA), Main Line Honda (PA). My worst experiences were with Ourisman Honda of Bethesda (MD), Landmark Honda (VA), First Team Honda (VA), and Criswell Honda (MD). I will not even mention the 10+ dealers who never provided quotes.
Happy shopping!
$ 36,040 + TTL
OTD $38,400
I live in Minnesota..
Certainly I got many useful info from here.. THANKS!
Thanks
Good luck.
Did you buy an extended warranty?
Any accessories?
I probably can't ask you more but I want to thank you very much! I hope it goes well and not have it be a hassle.
How did you manage to request a quote from 40 other dealers?
Is there easy way the you can do?
Please let us know.
Thanks
mka :confuse:
I have sent email to Honda North. No response.
I have made my email address public. Would you care to send me more detail whom should I contact.
Thanks,
p.s. 2006 model
Thanks for replies in advance.
Someone will, no doubt jump in and tell you you paid too much. Why look back?
Enjoy!
I got a quote from Honda North which is $200 over invoice + $229 doc fees for EX-L. They would not waive the doc fees.
Could you please email please. I have my email public.
Thanks,
Comparing is a very normal experience for most people. Houses, stocks... any asset that can be purchased generates a certain amount of curiosity about how much (or little) we have paid. Plus, sharing this information allows future buyers to be better prepared to purchase at a fair market rate.
Hopefully someone (not a seller) will let me know I purchased at a favorable/fair/unfair cost. I would feel uncomfortable if I found I had paid more than many others for the same vehicle. Either way, curiosity drives the question. Either way, I know I will enjoy the vehicle. so........ Anyone?
Check out http://www.hondawarrantyinfo.com (Bernardi Honda in MA) for great deals on EWs. This site has been mentioned on the forum by others; I just called them today to ensure everything was legit. I will be faxing my warranty application to them tomorrow for the 8 yr/120,000 mile EW--$0 deductible for $1281.00 on a 2006 Odyssey EXL-RES. I ran this price by my dealer today while we were finishing up some paperwork and they said they could not touch that price and to buy it because it was a great deal. I even asked Bernardi how the price was so low and they said they do volume pricing on their Honda Care warranties. Hope this helps.

I was initially a bit worried because there aren't very many honda dealers in Omaha but still managed to find a good deal.
I emailed Honda Cars of Bellevue & Superior Honda to get a quote on a 2006 Touring R&N. ($39,345 Sticker)
Superior honda responded promptly with $37,148.
Honda cars of Bellevue responded promptly with $36,580.
I contacted both to set up an appt. to review my trade in (1997 Dodge Grand Caravan that wasn't in very good condition) :sick:
I first went to Bellevue with my handy edmunds Invoice price printout, a KBB printout for the value of my trade ($2100), & a quote from Bernardi for the 8yr./120k/0 deductible warranty ($1,281).
They first came back with a KBB printout from the Internet that showed $1,100 for our trade. I told them that it seemed a little odd because I have the same printout that shows $2100. :surprise: They of course quickly realized they neglected to add the options on the web page (hate it when that happens) and quickly matched the $2100.
I had explained to them that I was going to purchase from whomever gives me the best total deal so they wanted to know what they could do to win our business that night. We told them that if they gave us $3000 for the trade and the internet price we'd do the deal and forgo our trip to Superior and they agreed. They also agreed to match our extended warranty quote.
Numbers:
Touring R&N: $36,580
Wheel Locks: $64
Trade in Allowance: -$3,000
Difference: $33,644
Warranty: $1,281
Doc Fee: $32
Recording Fee: $17
Total (OTD)*: $34,974

I do want to mention one thing about the PAX tires. They were very appealing to me because this is my wife's primary vehicle but, I also saw many posts that made me nervous so I researched them quite a bit. I called the PAX hotline and found that all the Honda dealers in my area carry them and for the first 2 years (or 50% tread life) they will just swap the tire out for free. (I'll admit this is a little weird). To me this isn't much different then me driving to the tire shop and waiting on them to fix the flat.
However, I was a little more worried about cost to replace them when they wear out so I called a couple Honda dealers and they're approximately $180 per tire (I forget the exact amount) to replace them outright. This would make it about $200 more than us swapping out 4 normal high end tires so I can live with that. I ultimately felt the benefit outweighed the risks.
Sorry for the long post but I've been reading (& learning) out here for the last 2 months and wanted to share my results. Thanks to everyone who posted!!
BTW, we absolutely LOVE our new van. Honda made a wonderful automobile.
