I have been read this forum for a while. I see that in WA state the price for Honda Odyssey is very high compared to other state. I received couple quotes from some dealer. The lowest quote I got for EX-L RES is $27,972 + taxes + lic + do + extras accessories and maybe something else too. I calculated OTD for EX-L RES is about $30,000 and couple hundred more. That I noticed that there were some people also paid this price in Washington state and posted in this forum.
The question is: do anyone had any better quote in the Washington State? Would you guys share with me? My address: ducndao@hotmail.com.
Thanks in advance
You might have to put up with the whole song and dance to get it.... but, they definitely are focused on volume..
The guys at Century are easy to deal with, but don't always have a big selection, and won't always drop their pants on price.. But, that's where I always got service..

[ base + dest + doc + incentive ]
I've read other posts that say the incentive is taxed in illinois, but is the rest of this correct?
Thanks.
I just got a OTD price of 28500 for an EX-L 2008 with RES. Is this a good deal?
Can any one give me some feedback
Thanks
The finance guy "hated" me. I knew the price I was quoted and that was the price I was paying. Didn't want any upselling. Tried to push the warranty and I respectfully declined. He gave me the price and I held up my blackberry with the prices that I could buy it direct (the actual website). He stumbled around and really didn't have any response to that.
I financed through my credit union prior to stepping foot into the dealership (this would be my third car financed with them), and had all of the paperwork handy just in case the "terms" changed on me. He tried to sell me GAP, I pointed out in my paperwork where I was covered. He again stumbled.
As he was punching in all of the numbers into his computer I then stated I expected my payments to be $XXX.XX/month with these terms and I know my total interest would be XXXX.XX for the life of the loan. He quickly replied and said that "we will see what the computer shows us." He could barely hold back when the computer shot out those exact numbers.
My kids were basically bouncing off the walls at 8pm with no dinner and basically their bedtime (this helped a lot). He said to me, "so I guess I can't sell you any clear coat." I didn't even have to respond. I signed on the line and was out of there.
I did a lot of research with this purchase and the take home message from me is that it pays to be an informed consumer. We are all here to get help from one another and I have appreciated every effort. Congrats to all of you who have purchased and good luck to all who are getting ready to purchase. Stay informed and you won't regret it. (however, your finance person might)
BTW, my sales person was awesome. Up front and no pressure.
I think it is a good deal. I am living in Washington state is Northern CA but the lowest quote I got is almost $28,000 (only included destination, excluded anything else).
Congrats to you and enjoy your new ride.
I am looking for good deal on new Honda Odyssey EX 2008 in NJ. Anyone has any suggestion on any dealer? How much should I pay after all incentive?
Thanks.
Do you have any advice on dealers in NJ/NY/PA? I am looking for a 2008 Touring W/O PAX. The best I am getting so far is $32,300, which does not seem to be too bad at all!
By the way, for folks wanting to do the 2.9% financing (60 months), as of today morning, note that you do not have to add the extra $2500 on top of the cash price to get that rate. In fact, same applies to the 0.9% (36 months).
Any advice on trade-ins? Please advise. Thanks!
Thanks
Yes.
for the EXL 25,500 plus TTL seems to be pretty easy to get to, I have had 3 dealerships agree to this.
on the EX, i have had two dealerships quote 22750 plus TTL.
all quotes including 2.9% financing.
I bought a 2008 EX-L (No Res or Nav)
base price = 25148
dest = 670
doc = 150
and the ridiculous tax in Chicago = 2747
I wasn't going to get the extended warranty, because I generally think those things are bad ideas, and I didn't have time to research whether or not it was a good idea in this case. But, every time I said "no" to it, they dropped the price. I finally bit when it was 1142. There really was no pressure on this, and I could have easily stil said no - but since this is my first NEW car, I bit. (Somebody please say this was a good idea!)
Also, as of today they could do both the $3500 back and the .9% interest if you wanted it.
Oh yeah, and it came with the protection package (splash guards, cargo tray and wheel locks) and they threw in a first aid kit (oh, boy).
Aside from all the outrageous taxes and fees that Chicago and Cook county ladle on, I'm very happy with this deal.
If anyone wants to know who I worked with I'd be happy to let you know - especially since the dealer said they reward me for any references that bought!
base = $25036
dealer = $500
doc = 125
tax (6%) = $1532
OTD = $27068
plus $300 in random crap options i can't nix off vehicle.
It doesn't seem like anyone is adding in Dealer fees on this forum. Should I just tell them BS, i'm not paying it? Dest is already included.
Also, does anyone know what Oct. incentives and rebate will be? Should I wait? I'm not picky on color and most dealers still have 40 on lot, so I'm pretty safe.
Only extra was the wheel locks which were already on it -
$26,136 (incl all fees) + TTL only.
They had a ton of EXL's in stock (like 20) so let me know if you need my dealer name but I pretty much dealt directly with the sales mgr which was nice instead of passing notes back and forth via the helpless sales guy like other places. I wanted silver and they only had one left so I bought, but I think if you don't care on color you could easily get down to $25.5k next month. In this economy how can they raise prices (or take away financing). The Oklahoma Dealer that dol007 in an earlier post was very nice and was at $25.8 but for us that's 5 hrs away - not worth the gas/time for $300. Also Holmes Honda in Des Moines IA said he could get to $26,050 but again not worth $90 less to drive & waste 3 hrs driving. Good luck to all -
Waiting for your reply.
I searched their inventory and they don't seem to have the 08 Touring in stock. I will request a price quote and see if they're willing to go out and get one. Of course, that usually adds ~$200 for the driver who gets it, etc.
I've been in contact with others in PA who have the car, but their deals are not as good as those in NJ/NYC (those do not seem as trustworthy though). I am discovering new things every day and things change (i.e., new advertising fees that were not included the first time, etc). Anyway, I am concerned about making a 3-hour trip to talk to them in person!
Not much time is left for the $3500 cash back and 0.9% and 2.9% financing options, so I would have to pull the trigger soon. Wish me luck!
Thanks!
At any rate, I am happy with the 7000 off MSRP(34,400) and almost 4000 off Invoice price on the new van.
We were shopping for a large SUV or Sienna but end up getting Odyssey as this deal is unbeatable.
This is in South Bay(San Jose area).
Send me email if you want to know the name of the dealer.
This particular dealer had only maroon and white ones left, but I am sure there are plenty of them around.
Good luck to you all.
Depending how to do the payment, cash, load or lease. You may want to supply to dealer for credit approval ahead of time. Plus you may have pre-approval on a car loan from a bank or AAA.
In any case, my main problem is the trade-in, which will make a big difference. Only a few gave me a rough estimate, some say use KBB which gives terrible trade-in values that would give me a much larger hit than I am expecting, one told me use BlackBook tool. I visited a nearby dealer yesterday and have gave me $2000 above KBB, which is more like it.
Don't dealers sometimes make more money on trade-ins than on new cars? If so, that's why I was hoping they will be willing to give me a better deal overall (new car price minus trade-in).
If dealer gives you top money on your trade-in, probably won't give you that much of discount on the new car. Dealer always insists you to bring the car down for appraisal. When you are there they won't offer top dollars, excuses of market condition and something like that to lessen the offer.
Trade-in is always the hurdle. I will sell it first instead of trade-in in order to get best deal on your new one. If you sell the car, you can alway rent a car for a week or so in between to get the new one.
Can you please send the dealer's name?

- I've seen some posts regarding the $3500 rebate. When does this start? Is that for finance-only or cash deals as well?
- Anyone get a good deal from a Columbus area dealer recently?
- I've seen some posts that refer to "teaming up"... I'm new to this... wondering if I could get an explanation.
Thanks.
Would you mind giving me the breakdown of your OTD price? Did you get the RES, or any other options?
I'm in Orlando FL and I'm trying to your OTD price. That is awesome, only difference for me is i'm at 6.5% sales tax. Could you tell me the name of your sales person and what dealership?
Thanks.
That's a great deal.
Which dealership did you pick it up from?
I picked up my EX-L at the end of March, 2008 for $29400 OTD with Lo Jack installed. It was $29100 OTD, but the sales person came back to stiff me with an $800 LoJack at the very end of the deal. I tried to talk them out of it, but they insisted it was "already" installed and we ended up with $300 for a Lo Jack. Back in March, the Honda incentive was $2000 OR 1.9% APR, can not be combined. If I waited 'til year end, I could have saved more money. BTW, I love the back up camera on the rearview mirror! Hope you enjoy yours too.
EXL w/o RES. The only add on was splash guards. The vehicle price was $26,050.00. There was a $250 doc fee bringing the total before TTL to $26,300. Tax was $1404 (6.75%). title $10, 30 day tag $15.50.
Total out the door: $27,729.50 with 2.9% for 60 months.
Have you made the purchase? I am looking for the best price offered on an EX-L w/NAV,RES in SF Bay. Can you email me (maltski878@aol.com) with dealer name and price quoted and does it include both cash incentive and 2.9% financing and is it all in writing from dealer mgmt.?
Thanks,
