Richard Bellamy, the internet sales manager made the transaction so smooth, we were in and out with in an hour and fifteen minutes (thats including the fact that he was 30 minutes late and a 5 minute test drive!!!) The folks at SVH are awesome, very polite and nice. They all seemed to be busting their rear ends and happy. I guess thats what happens when you're selling these Accords like Hot Cakes. We took delivery of the first one today and my wife is getting the other one tomorrow. I did received an identical bid elsewhere, but SVH was closer to home and the other guy, also prompt initially, was on vacation when I tried to set up an appointment with him so I went back to SVH. So you SHOULD shop around for sure. But SVH is willing to Match. I tossed around my offer to all the other Honda dealerships, even the ones that claim they will match......its all &&&*, they never responded. I hope this helps and thanks for all those that've posted here and helped we with our decisions.
The sour part of the transaction was that the car had 250 miles on it. I almost walked out on the deal because of that but then I had to get a new car soon so I decided to go with the deal.
I couldn't find a lower deal in the bay area. Honda of Hayward said they would match a written quote but most of the quotes I got were verbal. The dealerships wouldn't send me the email quote. They'd say "ok" and hang up but never send me the quote. O well.. I'm kind of satisfied with the deal although I know people have gotten it for 15 even.
Hope this feedback helps someone else looking for a car. I'd say go to Bosh in MA and get it for 15,000$

Should I wait for the end of the month/wait for the 08 model to come out for the price to drop more?
1. Security System (I see in the specs that Accord has an engine immobilizer but not sure if it is a security system)
2. Door guards (This ranks high on my list because of all those chips and dings the car accumulates otherwise. BTW, I think I may avoid this since the side moldings take the brunt and edge guards are a bit unseemly.)
3. Trunk Tray (Dont think it would be much useful for me unless I spill some groceries. My 95 Camry still looks fine.)
4. All weather mats (I know I can get these in a store for less but no harm in asking the dealer)
5. Leather steering wheel cover (I like this because it thickens the sterring wheel somewhat making it easier for my large hands)
i was asking more on the lines of buying this time. i dont think any dealer would give me a free security system. :P

By the way, I can't imagine anything more boring than a Volvo. A V6 Accord will put the Volvo in the weeds...
You've obviously never driven a recent volvo, then. Try out an S60R or even a T5. My '06 V6 6-speed Accord will outrun my '98 S70 T5 automatic ... but not by a whole lot. And that's only out of the gate. Run for a full quarter mile and my Volvo starts catching up. And it was no slouch in the twisties, either.
An '06 T5 is faster than my '98, and an R will blow the doors off my Accord.

I just bought a 07'Honda Accord EX-L v6 with Navi black exterior for 26,324. Did I get a good deal? I also got the 100,000 mile extended warranty,is it a ripp off?
Thanks

Also, any idea how much does insurance premium change if the car has no security system? Just want to get an idea how quickly I would be able to recoup the $350 for the security system by saving on insurance.
Is this a good deal?

Does your EX come with any pre-installed options? I was told by a dealer that almost all Accord come with pre-installed options either you want it or not and of course they were trying to make more money out of it.
Thanks!

Sedan:
EX V6, EX-LV6, or special edition (what is the main difference between the SE vs EX vs LX)
Accord Coupe:
EX V6 and LX V6
I try to stay away from dealers who operate this way. Hopefully there are dealers in your area whose internet salesperson will give you a bid for a Honda Accord without these add-ons or unwanted extra accessories. Good luck. Ralph
I live in Colorado and bought a 2007 Accord LX Auto for $19000 before taxes couple of months ago. I am very tempted to buy another one since the prices in MA are so appealing. I keep getting calls every other day from Boch Honda in MA who are willing to sell the SE Auto for $17100 ( actually they are willing to go even lower ). If it weren't for the fact that my family loves our other vehicle which I want to sell, a 2000 Odyssey, I would jump on this offer. Looks like they will accept any reasonable offer for the remaining 2007 Accords. They are the largest Honda dealer in the country. I am sure the 2008 Accord prices will be far higher than this at least for a few months.
I'm not picking on you, needacar5, but those differences have been posted a million times. The best thing to do (if you don't want to read old messages) is to get a brochure from a Honda dealer or go to Honda's website and look at the specs: Accord specs
Good luck!
Awesome dealership/Awesome Sales Rep/Awesome deal.
I went out of my way to get there and it was 100000% worth it.
Another poster had recommended and I concur. I was given the same deal as the previous poster.
My EX came with pin stripes only. Did not pay for the pin stripes. Dealer Installed options are a deal breaker for me.
Used Edmunds MSRP and Invoice for negotiations and totally ignored the dealer add-ons. As you know, the options vary from dealer to dealer.
One dealer had door edges on his vehicles with an MSRP of $399. His invoice was $30 on the door edges.
During smackldog's negotiations the dealer installed options were never discussed. If they insist on selling dealer installed options tell the dealer to call you when the truck arrives and before the dealer add the options. For the most part, they eat the lost due to high mark-ups.
Just saw a truck today on I-95S with about 15 new 07 Accords enroute to some dealer.
P.S. May order the wheel locks.

It depends on the state you are in. Read the posts for the last 15-30 days and you will get an idea.
what is the main difference between the SE vs EX vs LX
Here's a couple of options.
1. Go to automobiles.honda.com. They allow you to compare a Honda vehicle with other vehicles. You can use the same feature to compare two trims on the same vehicle.
2. Using either edmunds.com or kbb.com open the spec webpages for each trim in a different browser window/tab. You can then flip back and forth to compare.
BTW, while option 1 is more convenient in that it shows a side-by-side comparison, I found the information a little better presented in option 2. Choose what you like.
