Have e-mailed 10 local dealers. Best offer so far is from one dealer for $27,800+TTL for a '09 Slate Green EXL no Res/Nav. Others are around $28,100 - $28,700+TTL. Any chance I can get down around $27K even? What's that best way to get them down?
I'm thinking the same thing...I've been keeping an eye on a few Honda dealers inventory (not many being moved from what I can tell), but from what I've heard Honda will reduce production starting in May...Dunno what to say other than that May might be a good month to buy considering that there are still a good number of Oddys in dealer lots.
just curious, did they try to sell you an 08 Touring at all? They still have a bunch of them on the lot and am wondering what you could scoop an 08 for if they are selling the 09's for 33k?
2) EXL w/dvd only at $30,600 OTD (selling price $27,781.70 + state tax is 6%, + $670 freight, + processing fee $99, + $275 for title/tag). Basically $2,100 less for this model.
This is very good price. Last week I requested quotes from most dealers in MD and VA for same model, and the best quote I got was $350 more than what you are getting. Which store gave you this price?
Can someone please describe, in detail, how the dealers in MD, VA and other east coast areas are able to offer the lowest sales prices? For example, I understand that the Invoice price of an EXL w/RES is $31,481 (then add to that the standard $670 destination charge).
There is currently a $2500 Honda incentive which would bring the above price down to $28,981 + Dest + Doc + Lic + Tire Fee + Taxes. How are these posts showing $28,000 being achieved?
The same question on the touring...doing the math, these people are also getting about $1000 more off the price than $2500 less inventory allows. Any help and/or strategies to achieve these results would be appreciated.
I got the following quote from a dealer in CT. Please let me know if anybody got a bettter deal than this?
In-Stock 2009 Honda Odyssey EX-L DVD/Navi: Your ePrice: $30,389.00 Dealer Conveyance: $299.00 CT Sales Tax: $1,841.28 Transfer Registration: $100.00 (new $170) Total Out the Door: $32,629.28
Also, please let me know what else can I negotiate the dealership into giving for free: like floor mats, wheel locks, mud guard or oil change? Has anybody gotten free oil change for life (asking for too much?)?
The $2500 Honda marketing holdback to the dealer is in addition to the normal holdback which I believe is 2% of MSRP for most Honda models. So even without the incentive, dealers can (and do) sell at or below invoice because of the holdback.
Manufacturers sometimes offer dealers in various regions different incentives. They don't show up on invoice/holdback/rebate figures. It may have to do with monthly sales bonuses etc. May or may not be why deals differ.
if you are intersted we can team up and hopefully knock off another 200 to 500 off the exl w/dvd.
you interested? The only reason i am getting this price is becuase i know how much my coworked paid and they can jerk me around like other dealers can.
So far no dealer in MD or VD or NJ area has came close to either othe these price for EXL w/dvd or EXL w/dvd with nav. Some dealers have told me that they are not the desperate to move the odyssey of there lot yet.
Unfortunately we are not buying the Odyssey anymore.
Our 07 Odyssey was “lemoned”, and on Saturday we went to buy an 09. However the 09 seems to have the same issue as our 07. We test drove another one and it was fine, but my wife is really scared of ending up with another lemon.
Finally pulled the trigger on an EX-L. Wanted to lease but couldn't wait any more for the lease deals to get better.
The price above included everything including 6% Michigan sales tax. I may have been able to get it a little lower but got tired of the back and forth with the dealers.
Please respond with recent buying experience for an EX-L in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Please note your date of purchase, model, and base price (including dest chanrges) you got. Thanks!
i have an update on the pricing. On last Saturday i had stopped at the delarship from where my co-work purchased the car from and i got the same pricing as my co worker did but did not purchased and walked out upset. The delar called back and made sweeter offered or at least i think it is.
Now the offer stands as follow and good till End of april.
1) EXL w/dvd and Nav at $31,330 OTD(selling price $28,468.84 + state tax is 6%, + $670 freight, + processing fee $99, + $275 for title/tag).
2) The pricing fr Exl w/dvd is still at $30,600 OTD.
I think $31,330 for exl w/dvd and nav is a GREAT price, i think it is little too good to be true.
has anyone gotten a better price than this in MARYLAND area? Should i wait for May maybe the deal will get better or buy it now? Anyone has any idea what is honda going to offer in May 2009 for incentive?
Please break down your OTD pricing and I can compare to what I have so far. I've seen several go for $28,000 before TTL (with Destination included in that for some)...but I haven't broken the $29,300 barrier yet.
I'm not itching to buy unless a dealer in S. California or AZ is willing to budge.
These are AWESOME prices. Is that possible for you to share the email that dealer sent to your with that quote (krushi at gmail dot com) My dealer here want to see in writing .. it would be really really appreciated ..or send an email to me with u r details so that I can contact you through email
I am aggressively looking to buy the honda for last few weeks and here at my place the best quote that I got is 32, 500 for EXL+DVD (@9.8% tax).
The prices are NOW the lowest I have ever seen. If you wait, you probably will pay more and not get the Odyssey model and color you want - unless any color is satisfactory.
Thanks, we thought the same thing. Usually those dark colors look better if we keep up with the wash and waxing. We did consider some of the silver/gray options, but came down to liking how that blue looked on the lot.
Just received a followup email from another dealership. They said they just received notice from Honda that the 2.9% financing deal will end April 30th. Not sure if that's regional or just a sales tactic, but just a heads up.
We went with a credit union rate of 3.9 for 60 months anyways.
Which dealer did you get that quote from? I live in the Madison area and am starting to ask for email quotes on the EX and EX-L. Do you think we could secure an even better deal if we teamed up??
Same here, I'd like to know where such a great offer is comming from....caution, I'd watch out for bait and switch. The hint is when you said you left the dealer, what better way for them to get you back in the door.
Wow... how are you guys getting these prices ? Here in WA state, there are no way that dealers are nearer to these prices. When we refer these quotes, they are making fun and deniying these quotes. If you got these prices in email, can you pl. fwd them krushi at gmail dot com?
Looking for an 2009 EX-L with RES. Have been debating whether to buy within the next week, or risk waiting to see what happens in May. So far have gotten several quotes in the same ball park:
Internet price: $28,941 (includes $670 destination) MA sales tax 5% Documentation fee $299.75 Plates + Title $111 OTD price: $30,798
Anyone else in the Boston area with a better deal? Thanks!
Thanks haidongh. I'm not sure if the price is good because I just started looking around and I've not requested any quote yet. I am thinking about EX or EX-L only.
Hello! I cannot believe the prices you guys are getting either! Here in Denver, EX-L with DVD - $29974 + Dealer Fee + Taxes = $31935. EX-L with DVD and NAVI - 31882 + Dealer Fee + Taxes = $33941
The prices in Maryland seem to be awesome!
Anyone in DENVER - please jump in and help a consumer in these tough times! Cheers! Ola Van Man!
Thanks for responding. They gave me the same offer today - a day after I requested the quote and had to poke them with a follow up email. I don't need to buy until August (new baby due) and I'm not picky about color OR whether I get an EX or an EX-L though I am slightly partial to the EX-L.
I'm going to wait and see what the incentives are in May. I don't mind buying early if the deal is right. It's hard seeing the lower pricing being offered in some other parts of the country! I keep wondering if I can get the same deals if I hold out 'till August. The production slowdown and dwindling inventory has me a little nervous that they may not be "desperate" to make a sale this summer.
We didn't need the Odyssey until November, but I felt the deals out there right now are possibly even better than year-end discounts could be. Jumped on the deal this month. But, if the deals aren't as good in your region (I'm in Boston which seems to have some great deals right now) you might be worth waiting.
Oh, yes, definitely you can get much better price in Boston. I got my Ody EXL with RES last month and i paid $28000 + TTL in Boston, and OTD was $29785. Please drop me an note (wen_hq@rocketmail.com), and i can pass you the salesman's name.
Prices in the Twin Cities tend to be a bit higher than some other areas (like Chicago), that you might see on this board. There was a dealer from the Twin Cities that used to comment on this board (mplshondadlr), but I haven't seen a post from them in a while.
Comments
thanks
Any chance I can get down around $27K even? What's that best way to get them down?
As it is only 2 weeks left for May 4th, is that good idea to wait for that or good to buy now?
Any responses are very much appreciated.
