What is known about the 2010s is that there will be no major changes to the exterior and most likely not the interior either. It's still the same 'generation' of Accord, so expect subtle differences.
The next major change to the Accord is supposedly going to be 2012 which will be the last year the Accord name is used.
This is a response to Josh and other folks who want to buy or lease a Honda vehicle. Please read my evaluation of this dealership in West Covina:
Honda-Norm Reeves Honda Superstore 1840 E Garvey Ave S, West Covina, California 91791-1909.
It's a newly renovated dealership, has a beautiful showroom--they have great Customer Service!
I had an excellent experience at this newly renovated dealership Norm Reeves Honda in West Covina on Saturday, July 4, 2009. I bought a 2009 Honda Accord EX model with a moon roof. Through the AAA website, I was contacted by the very nice AAA Rep and was told that I can get the car $350 above invoice price. As an AAA Member, they also gave me a 15% discount on accessories including alarm/security system
They gave me a fantastic deal: I talked with Joey, Salesman. I mentioned to him what I was able to afford. He checked his computer and said it was okay.
I recommend this dealership because they are trustworthy. They were very good in customer service especially Joey and Lance. They will take care of you and help you. I bought this car for $24,000 out-the-door which included tax and license. I am totally satisfied and happy.
According to that site, $24200 would be a great price for V6 EX-L. 24800 wasn't bad but not enough to get me go over budget
although i have not recently looked at that particular website, a month ago when i was purchasing my car many msrps were not correct.
you need more infomation to determine whether a deal is good or not. remember not all states have the same fees or taxes. i know in some states doc fees can be more than $400 while in my state they usually charge $50. other states pay less taxes i pay 6.25%.
remember not all markets are the same so while there are some dealers out there in some parts that are willling to sell at incredible prices, dealers in other places will not be as willing. Houston for instance is a hard place to get those amazing deals that a couple of people have been able to get and this is a big city.
Also the marketing support that dealers get does NOT have to be passed on to you. is not a rebate like the other makes have this is why it is not advertised. see if some without any knowledge of this marketing support goes into the dealer and gets offered $500 below invoice most likely they will be happy so the dealer only used a portion of this support and still gets to keep the rest. although most dealers are willing to give you the whole $1500 marketing suppport they do nto have to.
so if you can get at least $1500 below invoice. you are getting a good deal.
remember it is only a small percentage of people that actually read this forums so getting $1500 below invoice you are doing much better than the rest of the general public.
again i would not trust that website
That dealer may have been nice to you, but you overpaid unless Accords are in short supply in your area. Most people visiting this site recently have been paying below invoice on Accords. The average price nationally also has been below invoice for the past month. This is the best website to understand prices nationally and in your area:

Accord V-6 Sedan (EX-L) with Leather & Navigation
MSRP: $31,575
Sales Price: $25,900
Tax 6.25%: $1,619
Lot Tax .227%: $58
Title & License: $130
Drive Out Price: $27,707
P.S. Did you get any special financing options i.e. 0% or 2.9%, or did you just pay cash? Thanks for all your help.
Let me know if you need a reference to the dealer and sales contact to attempt to negotiate a price at $25,900.00 I think if you can get it at $26,400. you're doing great. If the color is what you can live with. You're correct in saying we got a great deal - it was due to knowing the owner. Hope you can find the color you like it was difficult for us and one of the reasons we went lower from $26,400.00. was due to the color. We really didn't care if the dealership said no, and I think they knew that. Oh, the navi is great on the car so is the free XM radio.

That is about 2 grand too much! You can get a V6 EXL with navi for $400.00 more. We bought our accord 4 door V6-L with Navigation for $25,900.00. So you can easily make an offer without navi at $24,000.00. Good luck.
Sale price:23050
doc fee :395
tag&title :39
plus sales tax
It's not a better deal compare to the other offer (24800 plus doc fee and TTL for EX-L V6), but I got the color and trim I wanted most. It's not the rock bottom price I saw on internet, but considering the limited EX 6cyl inventory in my area, I'm all happy
I got the following quote. Please let me know if I should go with it. Thank you.
'09 Accord LX
0 down
$254 (3yr 36 months)

Can you fax me your invoice showing the price you paid? Dealers down here are not giving me any slack when I offer $25,900. I've walked three dealerships so far this weekend, and I'm staying flexible on the color options (just trying to buy the car). Thanks, Dave
In my area you can get 1500 below invoice as well as the 2.9% , but not even close to the price you are quoting.
"I have a quote for the EX-L w. NAV of $26,327.39 and with all fees the OTD price is $28,464.30. Auto dealer is in the Dayton area. "
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------
czufam......Did you wind up purchasing the car? If so, what was the MSRP and your final purchase price? Thanks, Dave
I also want to get some accessories, pretty much fully loaded:
- Front Under Spoiler
- Side Spoiler
- Rear Under Spoiler
- Auto Day/Night Mirror with Compass
- Electronic Back-up Sensors
- Honda Remote Engine-Starter System
I got quoted $3,409 for all the accessories installed, i know thats too much as well.
I received this quote online from one of the dealers in the Sunnyvale area for 2009 Honda Accord LX Auto:
Price: $17788 +destination fee $670 +dmv fees $363.75 Tax:1712.45 + doc fees $55. Total out the door $20588.20. Any suggestions on whether this is a good price based on your experiences.
Thanks,
Sram
The deal I think was better than what I got on the AAA website - but should note that this forum, AAA, and other sites are invaluable to any car buyer. Thanks for all the posts.
MSRP: $26,275
Actual price: $22016
Conveyance fee $299
CT sales tax $1338.90
Reg $170
OTD: $23823.90
How does that sound? It sounds pretty good to me.
I have looked around/test drove and of all the Coup's available the Honda is by far the best and most refined in my price range. I just want an EX-L without the sunroof. I am just to tall to fit. Leg room is fine. :confuse:
Thanks for any assistance. I want to purchase this week. Yes, I thought about having the sunroof removed but am concerned of what that may do to the car and the added cost. If I had the money to get the headroom I would purchase the A5 or E350 coups. I do not like the E350 interior and I am sure both are a maintenance black hole from a cost perspective. So, even if I had the money I do not believe they are up to Honda quality from maintenance/longevity perspective. This is based on personal experience with Honda's over the last 25 years and friends who drive the German brands. They all lease because of the maintenance/longevity issues.
i think if it was possible to remove it you would end up paying more money that way. try test driving it again i am sure that headroom is not affected that much
I am planning to buy a new accord EX L V6 Coupe without navigation from Houston. Can anybody suggest any price quote or range that I should keep in mind while I negotiate with the dealers, and name of any specific dealer in Houston that offered a good price.
Kindly let me know as this is the first time I will be buying a car.
Thanks!!
it is wise to look at your credit score before you go in to be aware of what apr you might qualify for and to ask for a loan from your bank. if the dealers interest is higher you know they are trying to take advantage. also to qualify for the best offers you will usually need credit scores above 700 so if you do not have this type of score you will not get them.
also if you are buying this month you can NO longer combine the marketing support ($1500) with any special interest rate. You could have done this last month i got both. so not to be in defense of the finance manager but he was right when he told you that. Look at the incentives for honda in edmunds and it will state that you cannot get combine special apr and marketing support.
also what was your sales price alone as well as your break down of TTL and any other options or fees. is this auto or manual
Any help is appreciated. Planning to take the cashback and take the loan somewhere else.
Could you please send me the contact information of the dealer ?
