Has anyone fitted the DVD player (preferrably 2 monitors) / Entertainment system externally in 2008 Odyssey EX-L ? (ie: did not buy the RES with Odyssey, but got one from the market)
Can you please provide the details? (Price + labor to fix it, Performance etc).
I was just thinking whether to get the RES or to buy from outside. (diff of $1500 without RES). Just saw 2 monitors system in Walmart for $600 (name starts with V), but not sure about the quality and the hassles involved in fixing it.
Thanks

I'm the sort that will fight for every penny but I don't want to be absurd about things either. Should I expect much lower for an ODY EX-L?
This one is Dark Cherry. We really want Black. I have another dealer telling me they don't quote prices over email but they will match any other dealer's price if I bring it in writing, and they do have a black one.
Which location (state & dealership) are these prices for ? Does the sale price 25,772.38 include the destination charges also (ie: $670 dest charges) ?
I got a recent quote for 2008 Odyssey EXL in NJ for 25,366 + destination + TTL.
Thanks

Give me an email address and I will have the dealer contact you (assuming they still have EX in stock)
Can any one tell me what is the best price quote that they have received for a 2009 EX-L with RES? There are no 2008 EX-L in San Jose/SFO area. The best price before TTL is 31k that I have got so far.
Your feedback is appreciated.
Thanks
Thx
I didn't negotiate as I was looking for a 2008.
$36,702 + 3% tax + 472 fee for an out the door price of $38,276.
How does that sound? I wonder if Honda will kick in incentives next month and whether it's worth waiting for a few weeks.
Thanks.
Odyssey EX-L with RES: $26,860.81

I have a basic question about the Remote starter /remote door lock/unlock for 2008 Odyssey EXL - Does it come as a standard feature or is it an additional accessory for which we need to pay ? How much does it cost ?
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks

Bought our 2008 Odyssey EX-L today from Northwest Honda in Owings Mills MD.
Only (unwanted) extras were mudflaps and wheel locks.
Here's the breakdown for our new 2008 Honda Odyssey EX-L, no RES, no NAV, Ocean Mist, $32880.00 MSRP:
$25342.49 (includes $670 destination charge)
100.00 dealer processing fee
1526.55 6% Maryland taxes
222.00 Maryland title and tags
$27191.04 OTD
We took the 0.9% financing for 36 months.
We had an excellent experience with Northwest Honda. They slightly beat the best e-mail quote we had. They had the car ready and waiting for us. It was just as described in e-mail, and had only 7 miles on it before our test drive.
We said no to a very soft-sell pitch for $1500 worth of new tires/windshield/etc. insurance. I do wonder if others with more haggling skills could have gotten it down to 27K flat, or maybe had crossbars or a cargo tray tossed in.
We couldn't plan on going shopping with the kids on Halloween night for last-day-of-the-month deals though. And we may regret it if Honda has way better incentives in November.
Just I really wanted the Ocean Mist color with as few extra add-ons as possible. Seemed like it would be difficult to get a basic 2008 EX-L in Ocean Mist by November, there are not many of them left in Maryland.
Good luck to everyone!
I am looking for 2008 EX-L base model. I am in NJ, but ready to drive extra miles if I get a deal.
Got ours from Burt Kuni Honda in Denver. They got lots more on the lot. Everyone was awesome and we did the deal over the phone so no waiting.
Went to 2 dealerships in NJ today (Open Road Honda & VIP Honda) and they had only white odyssey EX-L, which we obviously did not want. (They were not budging with the price too for that. One of them was in fact claiming that only he has the only 2008 Odyssey EXL in stock). They had couple of EXL with RES/NAV, but we were not interested in that.
Also called couple of other dealerships and they were out of 2008 Odyssey EX-L. Some had again the EXL with RES/NAV.
Does anybody know which other dealers in NJ or nearby have more stock of 2008 Odyssey EXL ?
We definitely want to buy in next week.
Thanks
Try Potomkin in NYC. They have plenty (10+) of stocks for EX-L. Not much color choice for other dealers.
I do not think there will be any EX-L left for Nov in NJ / NYC area.
Thanks.

Are there any courteous Honda dealers in NYC that want to sell cars?
I purchased from Regal Honda of Lakeland, FL. Here is what I paid:
SELLING PRICE*$25,400.00
DEALER INSTALLED ACCESSORIES$0.00
TRADE ALLOWANCE*$0.00
TRADE DIFFERENCE$25,400.00
CUSTOMER SERVICE FEE$369.00
ELECTRONIC TAG FILING FEE$24.00
TIRE/BATTERY WASTE FEE$6.50
AMOUNT TAXABLE FROM ABOVE$25,799.50
COUNTY TAX$50.00
SALES TAX$1,547.97
Motor Vehicle Warranty Trust Fund$2.00
LICENSE PLATE FEE$210.00
TOTAL CASH DIFFERENCE$27,609.47
BALANCED OWED ON TRADE$0.00
DEPOSIT$0.00
TOTAL$27,609.47
We ended up doing a trade which is not reflected here. But the price of the car did not change from what we were quoted via email (I pasted the above from their email to me). In fact, they transferred the tag for us, which is about $100 cheaper than a new tag, and passed those savings on to us. We also got the Honda financing (2.9% for 60 months) and declined the extended warranty, gap insurance, service plan, etc.
We had a great experience from Regal Honda of Lakeland. They answered all of our questions promptly and delivered exactly what they promised. They also accommodated our schedule (we closed at about 9 pm on a Tuesday). We accepted their offer online before we drove from Tampa to Lakeland. There was no wasted time or bs at the dealer. The only minor exception was a strong pitch from the biz manager to sell us extended warranty, etc. We declined after a little back and forth and were on our way home in our new car.
We also had very positive experiences with the following dealers in the area:
- Venice Honda - - First dealer to provide an OTD price and breakdown via email. Very nice and informative throughout without being pushy. Only reason we did not go with him is that he could not get close to the above price.
- Crown Honda of Pinellas Park - - Almost as prompt as Venice Honda. Answered all of our questions and provided other useful information. Did not have the color we wanted.
I would steer clear of Tampa Hondaland. They seemed like a bunch of jerks. But don't take my word for it. Check out the reviews on DealerRater.com. I did not read these until after the fact, but I feel like we dodged a bullet. :mad:
Also, don't bother with Gateway Honda of Port Richey is you want to negotiate via email. These guys would not communicate via email. :mad:
We are very happy with our new car. Good luck with your purchase!
We are looking for the same car. Did you finally get, and at what price?
Thanks in advance!

We heard the 2.9 financing may end this month on prior year models and the prior year dealer incentives ($3,500+) may also end this month.
This is a great price considering we paid $26,000 in 2002 for a new Chevy Venture (poor quality vehicle)...
Finally, we bought our 2008 Odyssey EX-L (Mocha Mettallic) on Monday 10/27/2008 from Planet Honda,Rt 22 W Union, NJ.
They threw in the "Splash guards" and the "Door Edge Guards". The only extra thing (unnecessary) was $249 - KeyGuard service for 5 yrs.
Here's the breakdown for our new 2008 Honda Odyssey EX-L, no RES, no NAV :
$25844 (including destination -> $670).
$1826.51 (7% NJ Taxes)
$354 (MV Registration + Title)
$349 (Doc fee)
$7.50 (Tire Tax)
$8.50 (Online charges/Fees -- ????)
The OTD price was $28,639 and we got the 2.9% for 36 months. (which was still not bad at all - just missed on the 0.9% based on score).
Did not get the GAP insurance or the extended warranty (7Yrs/75K for $1435 -- They were willing to extend it to 100K, since I denied 75K).
We really wanted the Mocha Mettallic with as few extra add-ons as possible.
Seemed like it would be difficult to get a basic 2008 EX-L in Mocha Mettallic by November, there are not many of them left in NJ.
They had 1 more Mocha Mettallic and couple of Black, White and Ocean Mist mettallic.
If anyone is interested, I can give the sales person name (He was very nice and not pushy at all - overall experience of all the people that we dealt was very nice).
Good Luck to all the buyers and happy halloween !!!!
$28601.00 - 2008 Odyssey EX-L w/NAV and RES. Destination included.
$399 - Dealer fee
$2359 - tax at 8.25%
$1400 - 8yr 120K warranty no deductible
$200 - 5yr tire protection (wife just got a flat the week before)
--------------------
$32959 total OTD (tax is a [non-permissible content removed])
Went with .09% financing 36 months.
I paid $20 to fix a flat at Honda dealer. $200 is 10 x Fix-A-Flat. I don't think this is at your advantage, except there are lots more on top of fix-a-flat.
But you are probably right. I think $200 was too much as well. They started out at $395 for that plan. $200 is what I got them down to. Oh well. Lets see if it ever comes in handy??
I live in Austin, so what is a reasonable price for a '08 EX-L in central Texas or for that matter in Texas?
Thanks for your help.
I don't live in Texas, but if you do an advanced search of the Odyssey forum with some variable of "Texas" as the key word, it should narrow it down.
Isn't there some guy in the Dallas area "David McDavid"? I see his cars once in a while in Phoenix. (just a thought). Maybe he has a Honda franchise.
$25,600 seems to be in the ball park in general for the Odyssey EX-L. I am keeping a little spreadsheet of what people are paying because my wife & I are about to be in the market and want to have an idea of what people are paying.
Doesn't seem too bad.
Good luck.
Dave
Dest Ccharge should be included
plus Honda special financing
Thanks for any input.
