2008 Honda Accord EX-L v6 Coupe silver/black NO NAV
MSRP 28310 + 660 Dest.
36 mos, 12K, through Honda Finance
residual 15919
mf .00186
$1850 up front (tax, title, fees, NO 1st payment etc)
also $200 cap cost reduction paid up front
$365/mo
Sales tax rate is 8.65%
Again, i think this is a good deal, and i wanted to share. If not, well, oops its too late. The car is absolutely gorgeous. IMO the 18" rims and foglights make all the difference on the 6-cyl vs the 4.
Thanks again everyone for posting these things that have definitely made me somewhat more knowledgeable about the leasing process.
Does anyone know a good dealer in and around Phoenix if you got a deal recently?
I live in the DC metroplex and I'm looking at getting an Accord EX-L I4 Auto w/ NAV. After doing some research and noticing the car is selling for 24.8K+TTL in some areas, I was thinking about aiming to getting the Sedan with the above specs for $24.5K (+TTL) or Coupe for $24.7K (+TTL). Is this too agressive or do these sound like good price points?
The dealerships near here seem to have tons of Accords in stocks (but the civics are flying off the lots).
Additionally, I'm buying two cars at the same time - hoping it will help in negotiation. The Accord mentioned above and a Civic LX Auto Coupe for hopefully invoice price of $100 to $200 below.
Any thoughts or feedback is appreciated. Thanks.
$22,381.07 (after dest) + $250 (doc fee) + $1527.59 (OH tax 6.75% ) + $5 (title fee)
$24,163.07 OTD. They also want to charge me a "registration fee" but would provide me with a price over the internet which makes me somewhat skeptical. I've emailed a handful of dealerships, and no other dealers are charging registration fees; standard seems to be doc fee @ $250 and a license fee @ $25.
Overall is this a good quote?
Based on your experience etc., what would be a good deal OTD for a 2008 Honda Accord EX-L w/o Navigation + BlueTooth as an option. I am in the North Carolina so the sales tax here is 3%. Also if you know of a reasonable Honda dealer who is will to be fair to the customer without any gimic, your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all and keep the posts coming.
They are giving you the car at invoice EXACTLY ($21,711+670dest), plus the doc fee. You should be able to either ask them to remove the doc fee, or get another $250 off the price, since doc fees are set by the dealer, and unlike destination charges, are negotiable. Many states have a cap on them limiting those to, at most, one or two hundred dollars.
I'd ask for $22,000 even + doc + TTL, or for them to remove the doc fee. It's not a bad deal WITH the doc fee assuming it is the color and trim level you want.
PS: I assume this is an automatic transmission? If it isn't, the price should be $800 lower than it already is ($21,581 vs. $22,381).
I was hoping you could help me out and give me your opinion on what I was offered for an 08 Accord Coupe EX-L (4 cyl, no nav) - $25500 otd. Could I do better? If so what do you suggest? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Go here, to Edmunds TMV to find the invoice prices for your select Honda Accord model/transmission choice.
Invoice + Destination is $24,188 on an EX-L Coupe, Automatic. If taxes are $1300 or more, you are paying under invoice. If they are less, you are paying over invoice, and could probably do better.
Thanks for the quick response.. Taxes here are 6.5% or 7% depending on the county. They initially offered me $25710 otd and here was the break down on that:
$23526 (including dest charge) + $599.95 dealer fees + $8.50 tire & bat fee + $130 tag transfer + $1448 (estimate tax).
They are now offering me $25500 otd. Hope this helps, let me know what you think.
Thanks again.
It is a Sedan, 4cyl, Automatic.
LX-P : $22,445 OTD PRICE , SO IS THIS A GOOD DEAL .
#2 - We have no ideal if it a good deal since we don't know how much you paid. OTD can mean about 23,345 different things. Give us the selling price plus all of other costs as separate items.

so the out of the door price is : 22,445 , so i was asking if it was a good deal ok
Of course if the destination charges are not in the sales price they quoted you, you only have ~$300 in mystery charges.

By the way, can anyone here comment on the differences between the LX-P and EX (I4) in terms of how well it feels / handles? Most people on the Accord forum seems to say that the increase in horsepower for the EX is negligible. What about the slight increase in disc-break diameter (11.0 vs 11.8) and the increased wheel diameter (16 vs 17")
I chose the EX over the LX-P (1,400 increase) for these reasons, moon roof, 13hp difference, upgraded stereo & interior and wheels & tires.
I don't remember noticing a difference in the brakes.
Good luck dealing. I think you will like either choice.
If anything, the LX-P should have the better/smoother ride. The low-profile 17" tires on the EX model will cause it to have a harsher ride because of less cushioning from the sidewalls.
I chose the EX over the LX-P (1,400 increase) for these reasons, moon roof, 13hp difference, upgraded stereo
The stereo in the LX-P is identical to that in the EX model.
-160-Watt AM/FM/CD Audio System with 6 Speakers
-Radio Data System (RDS)
-MP3/Windows Media® Audio (WMA) Playback Capability
-MP3/Auxiliary Input Jack
-Speed-Sensitive Volume Control (SVC)
You have to upgrade to the EX-L to get an upgraded stereo, which Honda lists as:
-270-watt AM/FM/6-Disc In-Dash Premium Audio System with 7 Speakers including Subwoofer
Does anyone know if $25,400 is a good OTD price on a Honda Sedan 4cyl automatic w/ BlueTooth w/o NAV?
In addition, assuming good credit, is the interest rate given by Honda also negotiable, and if so what should I be asking on a 60 month? Currently they are offering 3.9% on a 60 month and 1.9% for 36 months. Should I be able to get at least a 2% on a 60 months? Please give me your feedback .... thanks.

I'm looking around D.C. and I think I might be able to get a i4, ex-l, auto, w/ nav for 26 OTD. ($24.8K + TTL). I'll let you know - tonight I'm going to close the deal. We'll see what changes if anything before then...::fingers crossed::
Great forum you have here and some very helpful folks. I am looking to get a 08 Accord EX-L 4cyl Sedan. i know the invoice per edmunds is $24,098. I have been reading a while on this forum and is it true that some people are paying as low as $23,295?? does this include destination(I am guessing not)? how much below invoice can I expect? I am located in CT. thanks
I was only giving my opinion about the slight difference I experienced when testing both cars.
Also, I guess I was mislead to believe the LX/LX-P comes with a single CD changer and not a 6 disk changer like the one in the EX model. If this is the case, I stand corrected.

I'm looking for an EX-L auto in the Bay Area. I don't mind traveling either, just do the deal over the phone and bring a check.
Question - is it worth getting the V-6? We don't drive fast, but you know what they say about horsepower - you can never have too much.
What are prices that people are seeing relative to invoice or tissue as they say it?
Thanks,
edward
Also don't go to a dealer to negotiate at price and don't fight with anyone. Email every dealer in your area and negotiate that way. Pick the best deal, go into the dealership and pick up the car. You actually might have to pay more because of cash, since some dealers make money on the financing as well.

I am trying to get the Blue tooth added to the Honda Accord EX-L w/o NAV as an accessory, but I would like to know if anyone has done so already and is willing to detail the quality of the product. I am a bit concerned in that when added as accessory, the audio is not done through the car's audio system but rather via a little speaker in the kit which is placed the in the space in the overhead compartment used for the sunshades. Any advice please? Thanks
Just want to say thank you to all the people who post to this forum. Thanks to all of you and your great advice, I just took delivery of a new Accord EX auto I4 w/out leather for $21,550 (includes: doc fee and transportation; does not include: sales tax or plates). Lots of places that I e-mailed told me that this price was ridiculous; that the dealer would change the price when I went to pick it up, etc....but this turned out not to be true. I ended up buying the car from Curry Honda in Chicopee MA and they were fantastic to deal with. They have lots of inventory and are persistent but low pressure. I also financed through Honda at 1.9% for 36 months. Overall, it was as good an experience as possible for this type of transaction. They (Curry) were great but this forum is what helped me to make the experience great for me. And I got what I think is a great price for a great car! Thanks!
Very nice to not haggle! We let them know that we are in the market for an Odyssey sometime in the next year too, so they were nice. They tried to sell accessories and a warranty, but after I said no, there was no high pressure. Our total time at the dealership on 3 visits when we were deciding on a car until we drove away with it was less than 3 hours and the night we paid for it and picked it up, we were only at the dealership for 45 min.
The all season floor mats at the dealer were $150, but we went home and ordered WeatherTech gray rubber mats off the Internet (google search) for $114 with no tax or shipping.
If I were you, I wouldn't even bother with that dealership anymore because of the BS they just pull with you and that stupid OTD price they give you. They think they could take you for a fool. Well, forget them.
Just go send a email to all the dealership within a 15-20 miles radius and try to find which dealer will give you the best deal first. From there, negotiate with them over email. Or just call Hardin Honda and tell them that you know a couple of people that got an Accord LX-P from them for $21,400 OTD and that Hardin Honda seems friendly. Ask if you can get a very similar deal with them. I know 4 other people that got the LX-P for $21,400 OTD from them already and when you tell them, they will know that it's true.
yes $22,400 is with ( NYC sales and dmv fees, dealer fees ) so am i getting a good deal there , let me know .
$22,400 is my out the Door Price . when should i purchase extra warranty ?
thx to all reply .
