It really gets down to what you want. It appears that having a new design (Civic) is important to you. If you buy the Accord and you end up really liking the new design, will you be upset with your 07 purchase? If you buy the Civic, will you be upset if you still have the car when the next redesign is available? Such is life.
So.... a newer design in a car that is smaller, uses cheaper material, etc. vs. an older design in a bigger, safer, more luxurious car with all the bells and whistles (except for navi)... for a little over $2k difference. Seems like an easy choice... but only you can answer the design question.
A quick trip to Honda's website would tell you that wheel locks are $54. They are less from H&A but you would have to put them on. H and A Accessories
Good luck.
The guy really talked down the EX and was pushing the SE. Told me the only difference is the moon roof. I stayed the course on the EX-L though.
Came back to the desk and wrote $25,200 in the "4 square" box. He knew I was an internet junky so he asked me what I'd need to make it work.
I told him I'm looking at $21,500 including destination fee and that would be the sweetspot that would make me pull the trigger.
He went to the manager and came back and said it's low but not outrageous. I told him I'm not buying until tomorrow so he sort of left it all hanging up in the air.
What do you think? If I can get the EX-L for $21,500 inc. destination, am I getting a good deal?
I probably should have come in a little lower but we'll see.
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks!
I haven't been paying attention to prices people are posting here but that price is over $1000 below invoice w/o wood trim so I don't think you can complain.
Prof creep is asking even less in his offer (previous post). Good luck to both of you.
The two pieces of additional info which is what snagged you, is that for the last number of months Honda has been giving the dealerships an additional $750 off to clear out the end of model year Accords. This ends up as extra profit to the dealership, and/or a better deal for the consumer. The final piece of good news, is that the 2008 shipments (new model year design) will depend upon how many of the 2007's were sold. So a number of dealers have been very anxious to move old 2007's at whatever price, to lock in a future good inventory of the new models.
All of this yields some really great deals available now on a super car.
Anyone here has some price information about SE 4cyl near Los Angeles? MSRP: 21625, Invoice: 19601 (from edmunds). Do you think it is possible to get it around 19000 out the door near LA? Thank you.
price................17801
destination fee...595
DC tax..............1135
DMV fees..........130
dealer fee..........289
TOTAL..............19950
I'm in the DC area--sales tax is expensive at 6 percent!

Manual or Automatic Transmission?
Our sales tax in the Birmingham area (ALA) is 9%!
You gotta do at least that good if not you can get a Camry LE in the LA area or SD for "19K OTD", and its a better car. :shades:
2007 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L 5-Spd AT
Starting MSRP: $25,050
Starting Invoice: $22,571
Doors: 4
Engine Size: 2.4-Liter i-VTEC(TM)
Cylinders: 4
Transmission: Automatic
That's (21500) about a grand under invoice which is a very good deal. I would definitely sit/drive in both cars and you will see that the driver's seat in the EX-L is better than the SE (although I haven't bought either yet). Also, I believe that Accords in MA are $150 more than here in OH because you get the PZEV (lower emissions) model. Good luck.
One of the dealerships offered me:
$18,200 (price of car)
$595 (destination)
~$50 on tags
We'll have to work out taxes since I'm in WV and they are in PA, but the process he outlined shouldn't be a problem.
The local dealer agreed to match the price, but said he wouldn't allow the promotional 4.9% financing.
To cut to the chase, we walked out with a "new" 07 Accord EX V6 Navi for $24,100 (before tax/lic) and 4 free oil changes (about $100) plus a spare set of mats. Not to mention that I got all kinds of accessories that I would have likely cheaped out on otherwise, but love having now. I am just thrilled with this car.
That looks to be a great price perhaps one of the best I have seen.....Search for scree name Saleem he bought the SE4 and remeber him saying he got a great deal...I believe you did better, but he purchased it 2-3 months ago
Check out this post
#13856 of 14421 his name his sunny77890 he received the best deal I thought I saw for his car....he bought from the biggest (he claims) anyways volume dealer in the US....YOu might want to read where he bought
Thanks
I've seen 18.6, 18.4, and the lowest i saw was what i got -- 18.2 (not inc dest). 17.8 is coming out of nowhere and is unbelievable. congrats!
First of all, he was talking about the EX-L so that means leather and heated seats. The EX-L has an 8-way power seat for the driver and lumbar support (all EXs have lumbar). The SE has none of these features.
Do SE models have seats at all or is that what makes them so cheap (inexpensive)?
2007 Honda Accord Sedan SE AT MSRP - $22,220 ... Your Price - $18,994
Tax, fees and a BS dealer doc fee of 250 additional. Lease purchases prices are TBD.
What do you think SE stands for?? Seats Extra, of course.
How'd I do?
$21,777
$595 - Destination
Lojack - $699
Road Hazard - $415 (taking this knocked .3 off my finance rate)
MA. Tax - $1174
Title Prep - $5
Docs - $198
Plates - $86
Total Contract Price - $24949
XM for 3 months...this may be standard. Overall, I'm pleased. I probably could have done a little better and the Road Hazard plan was a total gamble on my part. It's all about how the individual perceives it and I'm ok with it.
This forum was absolutely awesome in researching. I learned way more in here than any other resource I checked out. Thanks!
I've taken some long trips (a couple 250 mile, one 400 mile). I actually did the 400 w/o major breaks (just bathroom breaks lol and some snacks/soda). The seat is firm but was comfortable for me. surprisingly, i couldnt make similar trips comfortably in an IS250awd. could be the size idk i couldnt get it in the right position.
my 6'3" brother-in-law moved the seat when he got in my car now i've been tweaking it to get it back to right!!
So my conclusion: firm but supportive, comfortable seat. IMHO fine for long drives, but some will def disagree
I bought a carbon bronze EX V6 6MT sedan w Nav yesterday for $25k + $50 doc and tax/dmv.
Could u email me the dealer and who u worked with
But, You could have got new CRV for that price.
I test drove the SE-V6 today and found the lumbar support of the driver seat lacking. Perhaps I am used to my current seat (that has a firm lumbar area). In any case, I was not overly impressed with the test drive. At highway speed, there was a pronounced vibration in the steering wheel (probably from a tire being out of whack somehow - balance/pressure, etc.). The sales person said he felt it too. I plan to visit another dealer (we have 4 locally) and test drive another SE-V6 tomorrow.
