Dealership 1 - $25495
Dealership 2 - $24203
Dealership 3 - $25745
Dealership 4 - $25745
These include destination, but do not include the $595-$599 that every Central Florida dealer charges for doc fees.
What should the wheel lock package cost? I was quoted $350.
I can't decide between this and a TSX.
Even if you had to pay someone to put them on for you......still cheap.
Which dealership is offering this ? I'm also in the same area as you and looking for one with nav as well. Do keep me posted. Thanks.
I too am looking for an EX-L V6 but not until Feb
thanks!
See if they wil do 25k even OTD....if not consider going elsewhere.
Is it with NAVI or NO NAVI?
Anyway I want Accord2008 coupe EX with no option added. Does anyone have any idea how much the actual price these cars are being sold at now?
The MSRP is around 24000.
You're not serious are you, jb? This price is already $608 under invoice. How much better is she going to do? Who here has done this well? What am I missing here? :confuse:
I bought 08 Coupe EXL in Chicago land for $24,203.34. It's around at invoice. Only accesory I had was wheel locks.
Shop around and you will find a good deal.
A dealer said the MSRP is 24595 but the real MSRP is 24132 and both include the same price details.
He gave quote of 23,562. I am not sure if this is a good deal for Accord08 coupe EX black. no options.
Please anybody suggest any advice Thanks
thanks.
He was beating a price, which is probably why it is so low.
EX with NO additional options
4 cyl
He gave a quote of $23,362, and he said it's $800 over the invoice he has.
What do you guys think about that price? If you were me, would you buy it?
anyway, just got my blue ex coupe I4 auto from Honda of Boston for $22K w/o options with a trade in. I have been there four times since day of one. I guess they were sick with me and decided didn't want to see me anymore. Anyone lives at Boston area should try that dealer.
There are places in LA where you can get it for flat 23k or MSRP -750. If you can wait till next summer, price will at least drop another $500.
Price of vehicle (including destination) - 23,576
Taxes - 1,974.49
DMV and dealer fees - 249.50
Total OTD - 25,800
Based on the negotiation, I still believe I might have left another $200-$300 on the table, but this has already been a six week process and I didn't really want to devote much more time to this. I think better deals than mine can be had on Accord Sedans if you're patient. Most dealers that I've dealt with appear pretty desperate to unload their inventory of these vehicles and I personally think it won't be long before prices fall pretty substantially. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks again to all those who took the time to help people like me save a buck or two. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll try to respond when I can.
I know others have done a little better (the processing fee is a rip off), but I am happy and I think I bought the freak'n best car out there for the money. I have been lurking and searching for the last three months and I'm glad it over.
Merry Christmas everybody!
EDMUNDS.COM is one. By entering your name and contact info and info on the car you want to buy you will get 3 to 10 dealer's replying, depending upon the number of dealers in your area. The buying services promise to give you a no obligation pricing But some of the replies you will get will just be a salesman calling to make himself know and he will invite you to his showroom. However some of the replies will be prices in E-Mail messages. Some of these prices will be honest firm prices and others will be prices to feel you out. Call the dealers which have responded with what appears to be a great price, i.e., near, at or below dealer invoice. If there is a dealer near you which you might prefer to use but his price is not the lowest, call him and tell him the lowest price you received. He might meet the lower price.
BEWARE of dealers who tell you you must buy a bunch of dealer installed options which are usually way over priced. If a dealer tells you that, RUN LIKE HELL. An honest dealer will either price some of the nicer dealer installed options at a reasonable price or allow you to purchase the car without them. I am talking about items such as wheel locks, mud flaps, floor mats, door and wheel well edge guards, trunk trays, ETC. Some dealers will charge as much as $1000 and over for this collection.
Also avoid dealers who add an additional markup the the list price. This is usually called ADDITIONAL DEALER MARKUP or MARKET ADJUSTMENT PRICE. I make it my policy to never, ever buy from such dealers even if the model I want does not have an ADM price on it. Such pricing tactics tell me that the dealer is not honest.
I did all of the above and got a 2008 HONDA ACCORD EX-L V6 without NAVI for $25615 + $635 destination. This is from ANDERSON HONDA in BALTIMORE, MARYLAND. The INTERNET SALES PERSON was excellent and up front all the way. She told me I could get the car off the truck as it comes from the factory without any dealer installed options. For wheel locks, mud flaps and wheel well and door edge guards her price was $245. Other dealers wanted $551 for these items.
On the Accord mud flaps are a good item since it keeps the under side painted areas from getting scratched. The edge guards are of questionable value. The wheel locks are OK since they might deter the occasional thief but won't stop the professional. You can buy these at an auto store for about $25 to $25 which is aobut half the dealer price.
Yet another brilliant and helpful comment, thanks. rtxbob paid $26,037 which is $14 under invoice. Please tell us how invoice or less for a recently released car isn't a good price? Particularly when it's the highest demand sedan trim line (the EX-L V6). Why do you keep making these comments? Tell us what you paid or what prices you are finding!
Thanks!

For those who purchased them, is installation difficult or do you recommend dealer installation?
- Dealers: $209 + sale tax
- One website: $99 + tax. I know at least one website who carries this.
- Install labor: $100 @ dealer. They said it's easy to install. But, molding alignment is not easy. I love to buy & install 1 set for my car but I am not sure when.
Please keep us informed. Thanks.

Check out the
accessories thread
For the past few weeks, in the Sunday Newsday "Wheels" section, several dealers are advertising 08 Accords at invoice prices.
This includes:
All taxes & fees (Sales tax NJ 7%, Doc fees, Dest charge , DMV new tag)
Remote Start
Is this a good deal ?
The price was actually lowered by $199 to include the etched VIN in the glass.
There are about 12 Honda dealers in the Atlanta area. I was in contact with five of them over the last three months. These guys just made the buying process quick and simple.
I have written quote and putting down deposit this evening.
