    Hi All

    I am being quoted 38,500 for a touring 2010 model with no extras. Has anyone been in the market for a 2010 touring recently, I am in southern california and the tourings are quite hard to find. Any opinions on the price would be appreciated..

    Thanks,

    I also purchased by 2010 EX-L RES and NAV from Gerry Wood Honda in Salisbury, NC. I negotiated via e-mail between them and Honda of Rock Hill.

    Unlike the other high volume dealerships in Charlotte, they were professional and aggressive on pricing. The only other dealerships that came close was Metro in Union County and Honda of Rock Hill, but they had a limited selection of Odysseys.

    The dealership in Concord - avoid at all cost. Same with the other ones in Charlotte.

    Good luck!

    I agree that leasing is not always the way to go, but 3 years ago Honda had financing equivalent to 3.3% financing and I was able to get the van at invoice. I am considering a trade versus turning the van in and it appears there is some equity, so I do not consider this a "waste of money" but rather one of those "rare occasions"...

    This time around, I do not see the same leasing benefits, which does not surprise me except that borrowing costs ought to be low.

    I, too, live in Charlotte and am surprised at the sentiment about volume dealers in town. Are you really getting significant savings with the dealers on the fringe of the city?

    ppnff,

    What did you pay OTD for your 2010 EXL with RES and NAV?

    Did you have much negotiating back and forth?

    what was your initial offer?
  • kfc1kfc1 Member Posts: 1
    For 2010 EXL with Navi and RES I got OTD in cash $36,100 is that good price?
  • rainingdayrainingday Member Posts: 6
    Did you pay tax. I was quoted for 2010 EXL with RES at $35,223.39 OTD. I think your price is great. By the way, I am in FL.
  • daniandanian Member Posts: 2
    I bought 2009 Odyssey EXL -RES last night.
    I paid 30,538 for car price +TTL. OTD is 33,717 in South OC, CA.

    I got a quote from Overstock.com.

    do you think is it good price?
  • bshahbshah Member Posts: 3
    That is infact a very good price. Did you finance the car and also got 2.9% APR on that car or what was the APR if you financed.

    Also who is the dealer in NJ ? This is the lowest price i have heard in NJ so far
  • macgandalfmacgandalf Member Posts: 25
    Hi,

    That was a good price. I've been tracking it for a while now since June. I've seen at least 4 posting by autobrag since then, and the lowest one I've seen for an EXL with RES is 30,500. I don't think they're offering that price any more. I was looking for a Touring, and at one point had 4 offers for 35K (before tax etc.), but then the C4C happened, and they suddenly became sold out. :(. Could you list which dealer that was? and give a break down of the final OTD? Thanx.

    Any comment on my above post?I have asked final OTD 09 ex-l/res with those options listed for 33,100...
  • nobonobo Member Posts: 305
    Keep shopping for a better price on a 2010.

    The accessories on the 2009 will get you almost no value back at trade in or selling time.
  • ttttcattttca Member Posts: 3
    Try Spreen Honda, Loma Linda CA. This weekend they offer $ 500 off from other written quote. Spreen Quote me for 37.8K for Touring.

    Hi,

  • ojhaojha Member Posts: 6

  • dislabdislab Member Posts: 10
    I plan to buy an EX 2009/2010 in a few weeks. I live at Jersey City, NJ 07310. Any one in the same area bought such cars recently? How much did you pay and what is your dealership? Thanks a lot!

    It looks that many people prefer EX-L over EX. Why?
  • drivmywifecrzydrivmywifecrzy Member Posts: 61
    Rumor has it that poor sales the last 7 weeks will drive them to put the $2500 rebate back in play. Let's keep hoping.
  • crimson_greencrimson_green Member Posts: 18
    That would be great. I hope they do.
  • amtbooksamtbooks Member Posts: 11
    Where did you hear/see this rumor? Because there are not a lot of 2009 model out there, I don't see the need to bring back the $2.5k incentive to clear the lot which is almost empty by now.
  • aristotlearistotle Member Posts: 123
    Is this for real? I am in the market for a 2009 / 2010 Odyssey and can use this $2,500 rebate. Did you hear this from reliable sources, drivmywifecrzy ?
  • dislabdislab Member Posts: 10
    drivmywifecrzy, I am happy to hear about the rebate, as I plan to buy a minivan before December. Where did you hear this? Thanks a lot!
  • iyerhondaiyerhonda Member Posts: 2
    Anybody bought one recently in Illinois, for me to compare pricing? I am still waiting for quotes and will post it as soon as i receive them.
  • kprgroupkprgroup Member Posts: 9
    Final OTD is 34,300 .Is it a good price.It's in delray beach FL
  • mountain123mountain123 Member Posts: 5
    Hi Kp

    what the price before tax, tag etc...... could you please split the prices, and do you have any options like cargo tray, weather mats etc.... i am also looking for 2010 EX-L with RES, thanks
  • rainingdayrainingday Member Posts: 6
    Better than what I got. Love Honda gave me the price of $34,322 for EX-L w/RES. I am also in FL.
  • aristotlearistotle Member Posts: 123
    http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/2_3022-autosales.html

    In the first table you can see that SUVs, minivans and big car sales seems to have fallen the most ( for all manufacturers combined ) in September 09. If you scroll down the page and look at sales of individual manufacturers, under the "American Honda" section you can see that domestic truck sales have come down by 17.8% and import truck sales have come down by 53% compared to September '08. If similar trend continues in the month of October, Honda may have to do something drastic to boost the sales of minivans and whatever else comes under the truck category. So I kind of agree with what drivmywifecrzy is saying. I wish and hope they bring back the big rebates.
  • mountain123mountain123 Member Posts: 5
    Hi Rain,

    whats the price you have got before tax, title etc..... is it around 31700-31900 range? please reply, I am planning to buy the same this week. thanks in advance
  • macgandalfmacgandalf Member Posts: 25
    Hi,
    I am scouring for the last remaining 09 Ody and runs into an interesting situation. Since not all dealerships list their inventory, I called around for those, looking for a Touring. This one place switches and bates me in for an 09 EX-L with RES and NAV (unusual combo at this time). Of couse, when the wife and I got there, none is to be had, and the salesman was pitching for the 10 Ody hard. Since I told him the reason I was hunting for the Touring was for the bumper parking assisted alarm for the wife, he suggested that a combo of EX-L with RES and NAV could have aftermarket installation for ~$500, and voila, a Touring equivalent. They have a 10 EX-L with RES and NAV in stock, and asked for 34.7K. I showed them the TMP for the 09, and bargained for 33K. The manager pushed and said if I sell it to you at that price, will you buy today? I didn't do the homework for the 10 Ody, but did have a quote from one place while hunting for Touring, which asked for 35.8K. I stuck to my gun, and said yes! Well, they blinked, and called the manager of the manager, who haggled down to 33.25K. I thought it was a good deal, but still walked away, since there's plenty of 10 Ody to bargain for. Since then I've done my home work, and didn't see any rebate currently offer for the 10 Ody.
    My question is:
    Should I go with this offer, or should I continue to wait past Nov 2 (when the new rebate incentives will be out) for the remaining 09 Ody?
    Is the EX-L with RES and NAV with bumper assisted parking alarm aftermarket installed truly is equivalent to a Touring? If so, maybe shopping for a 09 EX-L with aftermarket RES + NAV + bumper parking assisted alarm is a better deal? (for the 10 Ody EX-L + RES + NAV + bumper parking assisted alarm would be 33.75 before tax etc, which is way better than TMP Touring at 35.7).
    Any comment is appreciated. Thanx.
  • aristotlearistotle Member Posts: 123
    Hi macgandalf,
    Will there be new rebate incentives for the remaining 09 odysseys?
    Are you speculating there will be one just like me? BTW if you go to autotrader.com and search for new cars and select the year 2009 you can get an inventory of all the unsold 09 vehicles.
  • strawberry5921strawberry5921 Member Posts: 15
    No It's not exactly equivalent, but maybe close. Touring has what I call memory mirrors. I can't remember it all. Try to get the sales brochure from the dealer. Tells you about every trim level. Why can't the salemen answer these questions?! I know more about the car than they do. By the way, I spoke with a guy this week in Fla. whose wife happens to be a Honda rep. She said the Clunker deal really cleared out their inventory. Here in Richmond, Va. there was one 09 EXL back on Aug. 17 and that was it. (Didn't check the 4th dealer little farther away from me.) No other 09's at all.
  • nobonobo Member Posts: 305
    Well, the '09 will be worth 5K less the moment you drive across the dealer's curb.

    Read up on PAX on the Touring. Might be something you decide to stay away from.
  • strawberry5921strawberry5921 Member Posts: 15
    I apologize! I paid $399 fee, not $499.
  • strawberry5921strawberry5921 Member Posts: 15
    FYI - I love the exterior protection I bought at the dealer! It is like a miracle product - one of the best products I've seen in my life! First of all the metallic paint job on my car is beautiful! Then they put on the coating, and every time a look at my car I just can't get over it, it is so beautiful. I now wash this car regularly ( a change for me) and the dirt just comes right off. I go thru the touchless car wash then dry the car off. The brake dust comes right off the wheels with a cloth - no problem! There is a whole lot of negative (and obvious confusion) on other web sites about this product/service. I say those people do not have this on their cars. No way! And/or they sell competing products. This is not a wax - no comparison! It is a molecular adhesion product same as what they put on airplanes. (I don't know why the F&I guy didn't tell me this,but my salesman did after I walked out from all the paper signing.) They aren't gonna put a crappy product on an airplane. There is a patent on this product. You put it on again spring and fall. There is a 5 year warranty. I know it's gonna keep the car looking good - real good. My old car was extremely faded, and so is my neighbor's. Protects from acid rain and tree sap, which is horrible in my driveway! That alone sold me. Dealer also treated my leather seats and carpet. This is also guaranteed. I am very tight with a dollar, but very excited about this product/service. I paid $500 at dealer which of course I could finance that way. You could perhaps find the same product/service later and cheaper. But be sure it's the same thing and also ,you know, that guy is trained to put it on. After I bought it (again) the salesman also told me they have seen the demo where they pour paint, yes paint, on the treated car and it comes right off! What more do you need to know!
  • newyearnewcarnewyearnewcar Member Posts: 24
    I agree. If they are still haggling for a 2009, then I would just go for th3 2010. Like someone else said, if you buy the 2009 it looses at least 3000 dollars once you drive off the lot. Try for 33-34 for the Touring, and 30, 31, or 32 for the EX-L NAV and RES
  • mountain123mountain123 Member Posts: 5
    hi mac,

    could you please share the info, which dealer is offering 2010 Odessey EX-L with RES + NAV for 33.25K, I am in san jose,ca. where are you located. i am also looking for the same. thanks in advance.
  • ttttcattttca Member Posts: 3
    Can you tell me what is the dealership name? I am looking for Lx or EX.
    thanks
  • mountain123mountain123 Member Posts: 5
    Today I went to a local dealer after some research on this site to buy
    2010 Odyssey EX-L w/ RES ( Polished Metal Metallic with Gray interior)
    I got final quote (after 2,3 rounds in and out to his manager the sales guy offered) for $32,700 including destination charges and the following accessories worth $600 installed on it. I got these prices from honda site. I am not sure whether they are really that much, but the sales guy told its of worth $750 with installation.
    Note: I have only opted for these accessories.

    Wheel Locks $81
    Door Edge Guards $55
    Splash Guards $107
    All Season Floor Mats $209
    Cargo Tray $117
    First Aid Kit $30

    anyhow to keep the story short I have offered final price of $32,300. then he turned down my offer and told me he can not sell the car below $32,700. may be i could have cut the deal for $32,500 but i have walked out. that price is before tax, tag etc....

    I need your feed back guys
    is it the best price? 32,500.
    or can I pay 32,700 or stick to my offer and see whether sales guy come back to me for 32,300 ? please suggest, thanks in advance.

    so my OTD price would be assuming I get the van for $32,500 + $ 461 (DMV fees) + 3006 (9.25% sales tax in CA) = $35,967.

    What did you get for the dealer fee of $595?
  • kprgroupkprgroup Member Posts: 9
    No idea What the hell they are doing with that fee.Tired very hard to get rid but most of the Honda dealer in south Florida charging the fee....Since the OTD price is very close to my target price 34K ..I pulled the trigger.
  • macgandalfmacgandalf Member Posts: 25
    Hi,

    Thanx for all with your input.
    The dealer was Hardin Honda in OC.
    BTW, they sold that one the next am. :(
  • firstminivanfirstminivan Member Posts: 2
    Hello - we're in the DC area market for an EX-L with RES and Nav. Anyone have any good deals/dealers/guidance to share?

    thanks
  • macgandalfmacgandalf Member Posts: 25
    Hi,

    No, I don't think there will be one. Someone suggested autotrader search, and there are not that many 09 Ody left in CA (< 20 - maybe 10 now, mostly LX, EX, and a few EX-L).
  • jayriderjayrider Member Posts: 3,602

    The best price we got is 33700+710+100 =34510 plus tax and title from Hersons in Rockville. We were talking to Stephen George. We wanted to buy a Touring model but can't get the color we are looking for. The best quote so far has been 36900+710+100=37710 + tax and title. Any comment on the price for touring will be appreciated..
  • macgandalfmacgandalf Member Posts: 25
    Here is a link to TMP through overstock.com on the 09 Ody Touring

    http://cars.overstock.com/trueCarConsumerWidget.html?url=http://truecar.com/widg- ets/consumer/WebsiteWidget.swf&partnerId=overstock&trimId=307875&zipcode=91745&o- ptions_msrp=0.0000&options_invoice=0.0000&total_incentives=0.0000

    According to this, you're closed to great price.

    On the other hand, being a devil advocate, I'd say:
    1. Like someone commented, your 09 Touring depreciates 3K the minute you drive off the dealer's curb.
    2. At one point, I had 4 offers for 35K for an 09 Touring. Back then, there was a $2500 rebates to dealers. Taking TMP of 35.7K, dealer lost .7K, but then gained 2.5K or a net margin of profit at 1.8K. Currently, there is $1250 rebates to dealer expiring 11/2. Assuming, 1.8K is the minimal margin of profit a dealer would accept, 36.4K seems like a reasonable offer (though I've been told in non-polite terms by some internet managers along the line of overstock being delusional). By this calculation, their minimal margin of profit seems to be 2.3K. (I just notice that the url says incentives = 0, so hopefully I am not delusional).

    Off topic, out of curiosity, does anyone know what a dealership do with these left over Ody? (assuming there will be no forth coming rebates, waning consumer interest in yester-year model, and competing incentives for the current year model)

    I was pursuing the option of upgrading an EX-L all the way to a Touring equivalent, but have abandoned that approach. First off, I am told by a few dealerships that adding NAV to an EX-L is not possible. Second, some places say it is possible to install aftermarket RES whereas some places say it is not. The parts for parking assisted alarm is ~$673 (alarm plus mounting, etc) plus labor (I assume not cheap). I figure ~1K for the alarm, 1K for the RES and you're skirting the margin of a Touring already, sans the NAV which is impossible to add. If all the bell and whistle of a Touring is what you desire, I'd go for it.
    Hope this help.
  • seestarsseestars Member Posts: 4
    I am looking for 2010 EX-L. I contacted several dealers around San Jose so far the best offer I got is 30,600+tax/fee (OTD will be ~34,000).

    Can anyone share a better offer for EX-L around here?
    Do you guys think better wait until Nov 2 for the new incentive/rebate or Christmas season?

    thanks~
