    Thank you! The dealership business manager said they never saw a price so low ever and this is a top selling dealership nationwide!

    about $6100 below MSRP! Great deal for a college student :)

    Can you give the dealer/salesman name and location of purchase for the Honda Accord Coupe EX.

    NeedACar - Congratulations. Now please help a poor soul. Who was the dealer who made such a beautiful deal? I am very interested. Thanks.

    I have just requested quotes for the Accord Sedan LX & SE from 3 dealers and am getting the following:

    LX: $18,764 (includes $595 destination charge) $149 documentation fee will be added.

    SE: $19,396 (includes $595 destination charge) $149 documentation fee will be added.

    I have never gone about purchasing a car this way before. These are St. Louis dealers and I'm getting the same quote from each one.

    Are these reasonable quotes or should I expect to be able to haggle more from the price? Are there other hidden costs that I should be aware of? If anyone has some advice, I am all ears right now! Thanks everyone!

    Was there a trade involved?

    Did you qualify for the college graduating discount?

    Make sure the dealer don't remove the michelins and put on subpar tires. I have heard of this happening.

    Congratulations on your deal!!!

    Hey everyone,
    Here's the internet deal I got at Ourisman Honda (Laurel) for an Accord LX, automatic. They send you an instant internet quote, and you can leverage that with other dealers for a better deal:

    $16067 (sale price)
    + $595 (destination)
    + (MD dealer processing,tire recycling)
    + $838 (MD tax)
    + $186 (MD tags,title, registration)

    =$17,789.75

    I did a lot of email back & forth between them & Hendricks Honda, finally went with Ourisman because closer & probably will service with them. We had agreed on an 'appearance package' included in the price (mud/door/wheel guards, pinstripes), but when I got there, they tried to get me to 'split the difference' on the package. I got up to walk, and they let me have it.

    Hendricks might have been smoother buy (can't say for sure). They're both selling way below invoice to move enough Accords by the end of the month and get their sales/volume bonus from Honda. My rec is to go between Aug 20-30, and wheel & deal.

    Amshere helped me a lot (post #16390), and got the same deal except VA tax was cheaper and came to $17,500 out-the-door.

    Good luck. Feel free to contact me at vkirti2000 at yahoo dot com if you want to buy from Ourisman.

    If you don't mind, what amount was the initial internet quote for? I'm just starting this process and am wondering how much fluff is built into the first quote. I plan on buying at the end of month. My quote was for $18,764 (which included $595 destination charge). Thanks!!
  • cinkcink Member Posts: 11
    Although partly kidding, I need to say that if you found it a joy doing business with a dealer, then you probably didnt get the best deal you could have. Let's all be honest, buying a car is a good natured battle with dealers to find their bottom line. You can only find their bottom line by playing hard ball, working dealers off each other's quotes, and being prepared to walk off a lot when the dealer says "Whoa, if you can find a dealer to sell for that price, I'll buy their whole inventory!!" I LOVE that line, its a standard in the biz, and one of many to beat you down and get you to cave in.

    AMITKUM -

    Was this for the coupe or sedan? Can you email me the price breakdown and sales person as well?

    angelwou@gmail.com

    Thanks!
  • needacar5needacar5 Member Posts: 21
    I'll give out my info after i pick up my car...i was told not to tell anyone about the deal. What should I make sure they do not doo?

    The tires were bridgestone i believe? What do they usually come with? What else can they screw me with before delivering my car?

    My dad warned me of them changing the battery, tires, ect. if I got such a deal...i am just wondering what I should check for...i will help people out after i pick it up in a few days ;)
  • ddwmewddwmew Member Posts: 42
    Needacar5,

    Congratulations on a great deal ... all records/deals are made to be broken.

    What area did you purchase the vehicle?

    Trivia: The EX Sedan and Coupe MSRPs are about the same but can anyone explain the significant difference ($800) between invoices?

    ........................Sedan........Coupe
    MSRP:............$23,350......$23,450
    Invoice:............$21,160......$21,980

    Two weeks ago my wife and I bought a odessey the price quota in St Louis were $1500 over what we paid but it was a lot of hard bargaining back and for between dealers. I have family in Chicago and got price quotas from there also which started $700 less
  • amshereamshere Member Posts: 19
    Kirti,
    Good luck on your purchase.Did you get wheel locks with your car? Your price is what another person in the forum paid.

    Enjoy your new car

    I've been to two Honda dealerships, not really enamored with any vehicle in my price range so was hoping to get an Accord EX-L at a price listed in some of these posts, looked like I should be shooting for $19k, but the cheapest I've gotten someone was over 22k and that is the lowest they would budge. Then they start spewing me BS when I mention invoice from an internet site saying it's not true then showing me the "real" invoice price, saying how the next gen is going to cost so much more (not even close to the same msrp as it currently is), blah blah.

    I'm seriously considering going back to leasing an Acura TL, so indecisive but doesn't look like I will be able to get the car as cheap as you guys

    I think your hope is too high. I don't see that many people are able to get around $4300 off invoice. You really need a lot of luck to get that much of. It depends on area and how many cars the dealer still have in their lot.

    In Philly area, there's only 1 dealer is willing to do 2.5K off and that's only for a couple days or so. All other dealers only do 1 to 1.5K of invoice even though they have 150 Accord on the lot.
  • cardancecardance Member Posts: 2
    Hi guys, I find this forum very helpful. Here is what I am getting from Boch Honda this weekend. Let me know what you think.

    2007 Honda Accord EXL Automatic 4Cylinders Sedan for $20,323.00 "including destination charge".
  • mjk5mjk5 Member Posts: 43
    I asked earlier in this thread what to shoot for and was told 18.5-19k, thought it was too low, and was I guess. 3 months of car shopping and I have no idea what I'm going to do heh.
  • gooddeal2gooddeal2 Member Posts: 750
    Well, you can always ask but there's no guaranty that you're going to get it. I think if you want really cheap you need to look at those around your area and be willing to drive/fly over to get the car. This is easier if you don't have a trade in.

    I don't want to start a debate between the Accord, Camry or Altima here. However, the Accord was never on my shopping list. I want either the Altima or the Camry but I back of the Camry b/c of too many problems w/ the engine.

    The reason I look at the Accord b/c I think I can get a good deal as many others here but like I mentioned earlier that dealers here in Philly don't want to get rid of their Accords. I went to a dealer that offered 2.5K but they offered my trade really low at start.

    So, I decided to get an Altima instead at the end.

    Hi
    I am also from the twin cities area did you get any good deal on Accord. I am looking for Accord EX-L V4. Did you get any OTD price, I got one price quote at 23,165 OTD . Did you get a better deal ?
  • amitkumamitkum Member Posts: 8
    Hi All,
    I have been looking for an Accord EX-L from Minneapolis/St Paul area, I haven't got a good deal till now,the best I have got is 23,165 OTD. Did anyone else got a better deal in Twin Cities.
  • dcaggiedcaggie Member Posts: 2
    I am in the DC/MD/VA area- do you think there will still be deals to be had on 2007s in Sept/Oct/Nov? Is there enough inventory on the lot for that? When will the 2008s start arriving?
  • nosemuffnosemuff Member Posts: 6
    Thanks for the reply mikesch!!! I'm going to hit it hard this weekend in St Louis and see how much headway I can make. I'm also checking out of state dealers to compare price quotes. Does anyone know if it is a big headache to buy out of state?
  • blufz1blufz1 Member Posts: 2,045
    Not a big headache,IF you're buying outright w/no trade for the dealer to adjust. IF you get it firmly in writing from the dealer. IF the dealer offers you several to choose from. Just my .02.
  • bvdj84bvdj84 Member Posts: 1,724
    Okay, $20k. Is exactly what they should be charging around for the EX-L I4. Not 23k, there crazy, because o8's are here very soon! Tell them, you know what others are paying and $23k is high right now! You will sign the papers and drive off now, but not for that. I would just laugh, and say, well do you plan on keeping these cars on the lots with the 08's? Name your price, after all its on your terms, not theirs.

    Good Luck! That is a steal for that car!
  • amitkumamitkum Member Posts: 8
    Thanks for your help!!! Do you know any dealers in Minnesota Area/ Wisconsin Area who would give a EX-L for $20k. Please let me know.
  • bvdj84bvdj84 Member Posts: 1,724
    Okay, well what you need to do is send in several email quotes, with what you what you want, and pick the best one, and counter offer if you need to. Than that way you have it documented. Even a dealer further away, won't matter, most dealers will match, they will want your business. Log on to Honda, and it will give you local dealers. You will totally get a good deal, and save you all the run around. Some dealers might not reply, but send in several, and you should get what you want. You shouldn't have to haggle, if one dealer doesn't want to work with ya, move on!Also call dealers too, and name a price like 20k, right off the bat, Say you'll come in right now if they give you 20k for it!

    Good Luck!
  • brmehtabrmehta Member Posts: 12
    I send off emails to Honda Dealers around twin cities asking for quotes on EX-L 4cyl w/o navi and this is what I get.
    Richfield Bloomington - 21588 plus TTL
    Honda Hopkins - 22391 plus TTL
    Buerkle - 22645 plus TTL

    Still waiting for a quote from Burnsville Walser and Luther Brookdale. Though Walser offered me 22091 plus TTL when I went for a test drive couple of days ago.

    Did you get any quotes from these dealers?
  • brmehtabrmehta Member Posts: 12
    I requested a quote from Hopkins Honda and got $22391 plus TTL. Also got a quote from Richfield Bloomington ($21588 plus TTL) and Buerkle ($22645 plus TTL). So far Richfield is the cheapest for me, but nothing less then what you got from Hopkins Honda.
  • apakdapakd Member Posts: 2
    I received a quote for a Honda Accord vp at 17,500 otd price (before ttl =15800 ).Is it a good deal? Please tell me befor I go see this dealer.Thanks
  • everblueeverblue Member Posts: 27
    Your price for EX Coupe Auto: $17395(sale price) / $23450(MSRP) = 0.75
    That's 25% off MSRP. The model I'm interested in is EX-L Sedan I4 Auto without Navi. Take your price into consideration, I should aim for $24250(MSRP) x 0.75 = $18187.50 + destination, document fee, and TTL from that dealer. Wow, please tell me the name of the dealer and where is it located. Thanks.
  • amitkumamitkum Member Posts: 8
    Well for Honda EX-L 4 cylinder I got a quote from

    Richfeild: 21488 + TTL
    Luther Brookdale: 21400 + TTL

    All the other dealers a very high, I am also trying to get the quotes from North Dakota, let see if we get a good price from them, let me know you mail id so that I can mail you if I get a better deal. I am also planning for a EX-L 4 cylinder so if we buy two cars may be we can get a better deal.
  • bignosebostonbignoseboston Member Posts: 3
    I contacted Boch Honda in MA this afternoon. For Accord SE, they ask for $18,397. It is much higher than the price other guys on this borad got. Any suggestiones on how I can negociate with them. Thanks a lot.
  • bignosebostonbignoseboston Member Posts: 3
    Hi, Oneohthree
    Could you send the name of the sale person to my email address: bignose1boston@yahoo.com. Thanks.
  • everblueeverblue Member Posts: 27
    Did you request a quote from their internet sales manager or did you just call them or walk in to get that price? Their internet sales manager should be able to do a lot better than that.
  • stevestr1stevestr1 Member Posts: 6
    Here is my deal on the above:

    Cap Cost: 22,829.75
    Aqu. Fee: 595.00
    Net Cap: 23,424.75
    MSRP: 25,795
    Residual: 14,187.25
    Base Payment: 281.25
    Net Payment: 304.24 (includes 8.25% tax)
    Tax on Credit: 3.71
    California Tire Tax: 8.75
    DMV Fees: 212.00
    Doc. Fee: 45.00
    Security Dep. 0
    Money Factor Rate: 1.56 (0.00065)-Requires 690+ credit score
    Total Drive Offs = 573.70 (covers 1st payment, tax on credit, tire tax, DMV Fee, and Doc Fee).
    15,000 Miles year
    0.18 mile over

    Purchase price would have been 21,740. Dealer cash in California is about $1,500 but the above deal (because of the phenomenal Money Factor Rate) includes only about $500 dealer cash...still under invoice.

    Is this a good lease deal?
  • bignosebostonbignoseboston Member Posts: 3
    I made an offer on their website and one of the sales(He called him Business Development Manager) sent me an email back. Do you have other way to contact with their internet sales manager? Thanks.

I could not be more pleased, though now I need to find a new hobby. Shopping for a car has been a full time hobby for 2 months+.

Was also offerred 17,400 for SE manual.
