Also, if you have the email for that deal can you send it to my email add. menard28@yahoo.com
by the way im menard
thanks in advance.
thanks.
If it is not OTD price then get the 2009 EXL cheaper than this price, so 28500 isn't good deal for 2008 model.
In the FYI column, on the 09, negotiated a price of $27.9 for the EXL with RES from Honda on Grand in the greater Chicago area (Elmhurst, I think). Wife wouldn't pull the trigger b/c second thoughts that she might want Sienna (also good deals there since this is last year of current model), but ultimately decided on the EXL. Going to wait until the summer to see if I can get them down to $25 on the EXL, which I think is very doable given current market conditions and the fact that we don't need the van. These guys are hurting, it is the end of the month and they NEED sales, so don't be afraid to be aggressive.
As I see it, the max upside is that I get another $500 off at year-end incentive time, if it increases. Even if Honda threw an extra $1,000 of incentive, that doesn't mean the dealers will pass that along. I would guess the dealer will absorb SOME of that via some increased profits on their side.
The downside is that if the economy gets better or people sense the crisis is over, the rush to get deals before they are gone could drive prices right back up. I could either be looking at $22 or more or even find myself in a situation where the LX 2009 models are all gone.
I am thinking that I might just go ahead and pull the trigger after tax season is over and I complete all my clients.
The potential downside looks worse than the best case upside and is probably more likely to to happen.
Whoever you are it is time to fess up. What price did you get?
First Negotiated EX-L w/o RES w/o DVD @ OTD $29500, but the dealer did not have a correct color. had to buy one with RES for $1000 more.
Since I am in downtown LA area, I added wheel lock for $100 more.
I asked for the OTD price of $29500 or $30500 w/RED, they promptly answered yes, so deal was very easy but now I think I should have tried harder to go lower.
The milelage was only 15 miles and everyhing was good. When I drove home from the dealership, there was some burning smell. I guess it is because it was very new.
I hope my experience would be helpful.
If I were you, I would try more to get EX-L w/RES for $30,000 OTD, which I failed.
Which dealership is this? I am in the market for the same car EXL with RES. Maybe going for NAV also. Your OTD price is the lowest I have seen. Please email me info at richard1111@hotmail.com. I am planning on purchase this weekend. Thank you!
I pulled the trigger on an 09 Sterling Silver EX-L RES/NAV today. I had been shopping around and received several online quotes in my area of $30,400 -30,600. Then I spoke to my German car dealer and he called up one of his Honda sister companies. They offered me $29,200+TTL and I jumped on it.
It seemed like a decent deal...or at least until they come out with a better incentive program next week!
I believe this deal was only possible because of the long standing relationship I had with the German car dealer. I hope this data point helps others.
29,200 OTD
was also offered EX-L with RES for 30,500 but I declined.
For color I went with Nighthawk Black Pearl and it looks pretty slick. :shades:
This forum was great. Thank you!

$24,225 for new 09 EX (includes dest. fee) in Los Angeles. TTL extra. No extra options.
Does anyone have any information on what the April incentives are going to be? Will the current $2500 Cash to Dealer incentive go up down or stay the same?
Thx
I am trying to wrap up the purchase on 09 Odyssey as well. You seem to have gotten a very fair deal. I am not having luck over here in Tampa, Florida, the best I can get on an 09 EX, with no options is 24900 plus 599 dealer fee and TTL. In comparison you seem to have gotten a much better deal. I was trying to keep costs down and min. down payment. Maybe this is the problem.
Any info would be great.

What area and dealer is that from? I'm outside Chicago and not seeing prices that are that good. Enjoy the Van!
If you have a Honda deal into holdback you have a phenomenal deal.
I am in Honda sales and my employee price is $200 over invoice minus any incentive money.
It kills me when we're at invoice or below and people are still harping to get more and more off the car.
Sometimes I just want to say, "You're getting a great deal, take it! Quit treating me us like we're trying to rob you!"
I am being quoted 24,500 for an EX plus the dealer fee. The dealership is telling me that this is less than their invoice. Is the 2500 dealer cash back already subtracted from this amount or do I than subtract??Since I am leasing the Ex is rather expensive (but better than the Sienna LE).
Thanks,

Ok. A dealer has 6 2008 Odysseys and did not sell any of them in last 2-3 months.
When they offer me invoice-$3500 incentive for EX it is more expensive than comparable 2009 Sienna LE. It is not much cheaper than 2009 Odyssey, but it was sitting on the lot under Arizona sun for a year or more (judging by delivery charge of $635 instead of $670 for later 2008 Odysseys) and it already has 50+ miles on it. Why would anybody even think about it?
Thanks!
What price were you quoted for the EX vs Sienna LE? I have gotten a price from Coggin of Honda in St.Augustine Florida for 24,500 for the EX and they are telling me this is the lowest they can go, The lease price they quoted me is $400.00 per month with 6% sales tax and zero down. The problem is when I use a lease vs purchase website to calculate the payments using the dealer stated.0025 money factor and 52% residual the numbers are off by a lot. What am I doing wrong, can anyone tell me what the payments should be with zero down for the EX??
Is that the line your boss tells you to use? Because that isn't accurate. Honda can't control the price negotiation between a dealer and customer. That would violate any number of federal and state statutes.
If that helps you sell cars, have at it... but, you'll probably get called on it someday, and might lose more sales than you know, from customers that know better.

The first Sienna quote I've got during a test drive and did not even discuss it further, so it is more of a starting point than a real quote.
Thx
My salesman showed me on his computer that the $2500 incentive was extended beyond March 31.
They gave me a low quote online as they are a bit further away from where I live, and then made the buying experience very enjoyable vs. the other three Honda dealerships that are much closer to my house.
I also brought in a financing quote of 3.9% and they were able to get very close to it.
All in all, a great buying experience: no pressure, friendly, and fair. And because of that, I didn't feel like I wanted to sit there and negotiate for hours for an extra couple hundred of $'s off the price.
Cheers!
All negotations were done before talk of down payment, etc. I used Edmunds.com "free quote" tool, it sent an e-mail to every Honda dealer in the area and they e-mailed me back with their offers. Honestly all the offers were very close. It was sort of a pain to be stalked by all the dealers, but it helped us understand who we wanted to work with. We had contact names and price quotes before we even went into the dealership. I think if you go in cold turkey it can be very overwhelming and the dealers don't seem to be as willing to drop prices. I would go to Edmunds.com, price out the exact model you want and go from there. I hope it works out for you, we are very happy with the Odyssey.
24,300 for EX plus TTL.
I am really torn between the EX and the EXL. Is the leather in an Odyssey tough? We have seat protectors for the kids, but I am not sure if I am in love with the leather...it can look pretty beat up pretty quickly depending on the quality. I worked out the difference for mpg and after about 5 years at $4/gallon, the EXL (VCM) only offers a $900 approx. benefit. Is that enough to justify the almost $3500 initial difference? Also, is the rear camera that useful? Why is there less cubic space in the EXL?
Thank you in advance.
$27,895
+ $670 (freight)
+ $100 doc fee
= $28,665
+ $104 transfer registration
+ $1,719.90 Maryland tax
= $30,488.90 OTD

Thanks to all who have posted their info. One minor question: does anyone know if the floor mats in the front should have "Odyssey" embroidered on them? The brochure shows it, but my floor mat in the front is plain. :confuse:
