Again, Thanks in advance.
It is not worth paying less than most people if you are going to pay a much higher interest rate. someone had said before that dealers dont make money on new cars sales well trust me its a business and as far as i know the point of a business is to make money. if not directly from sell price from financing as the lender gives them a pretty good cut.
I just wanted to know if this is a good deal or not, I haven't signed any paperwork or anything yet i just settled on a price today and am going to get all of the paperwork and etc. done within the next few days.
oh and i can add a spoiler to the accord for 200-250 dollars more if i want to........ I haven't decided if i want it or not yet.
Oh and i am financing through my bank at around 4.55% over 60 months
Base Price......................$ 19,759.15
Dealer Document Fee......$ 50.00
Sales Tax @ 9.3%..........$ 1,837.60
License Fee....................$ 144.25
Govt Cert. of Title Fees....$ 9.00
Out the Door.............$21,800.00
Used a Credit union to finance @ 2.99%. I negotiated the Out the Door price. The dealer adjusted all other figures. I bought in Washington State.
I also live in Bay area and looking for EX-L Coupe :shades: . If we buy together we can get good deal. What say?
Email me if you are interested.
Also I was thinking to wait for Accord 2010.
Do you have any idea when the new 2010 model is coming?
Thanks.
.
Price $17,765 + Process Fee $399= $18,164 Plus Sales tax and license.
Those with AAA, check out their car buying on the website. It is great because it gives you guarantee pricing from dealers in your area and ones at a reasonable distance also.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I was just offered an Accord EX-L V6 for 25178 before TTL as an initial inquiry in the DFW area. I was thinking about counter-offering it with $24500. Is this reasonable?
Thanks,
Thanks
FYI, one dealership here offered me (verbally) an EX-V6 for 21,444, including destination!!!! I pretty much knew that must be some kind of bait and switch and so when I went in, I found, to no big surprise, that the internet manager had made an error and the EX-V6 was actually $2500 over that (making it $24000). I walked out; I dont think they really wanted my business.
Any feedback on the car? I am buying it tomorrow.
I took the vehicle to custom auto shop and purchased a leather kit for the interior for $1,050 installed. Other than a sunroof, 13 hp etc, I basically have an EX-L for $20,412.00.
I looked at my invoice for a 98 Accord EX-L that I purchased in 1997 and saw that I paid $21,500 then which was slightly below invoice then. The new Accord has so many more features like stability control and 8 airbags than the 98 Accord. Only missing a sunroof which I never use. A non sunroof Accord gives you 2.4 inches of extra headroom which is substantial.
An excellent site which has been mentioned here is realcartips.com. This site is down today but it lists numerous prices paid in the US. Generally, a 09 Accord should be reduced at least 16.5 - 17.5% off sticker. My deal was about 17.3% off sticker.
The car has grown on me and I really like the design.
19192.51 Car
599 Doc Fee
1187.49 Tax (6%)
tilte $21
I hope that helps.
Anyone know if I'll get $1500 discount on '10 Accord model as well??
the first couple of months it will even be hard to get it at invoice.
there is still a good supply of 2009s so they will try to get rid of those first (at least sedans). those that want the '10 accord will be willing to pay more for it and dealers know it so therefore they will be less flexible when it comes to giving great deals.
you might get close to invoice but dont count on any marketing support right away.
You should pay no more than $25,500 and that would still be a below average deal unless your dealer is very low on 09 Accords and you are in desperate need of a car now.
Good luck!
I bought the exact same car for the exact same price as you three months ago. I'm thinking of trading it in for an EX V-6, but now the new internet quote is $23,600. Three months ago for an EX V6 it was $21,600. The EX-L V6 quote moved from $23,600 to $25,000. Does anyone know why it suddenly moved up $2000? The cash-for clunkers program, possibly??
Thanks for any help
p.s. I wonder if they're selling the EX 4cyl for $21,600 this time...
I ended up buying an EX for 19,890 (three months ago).
Hope that helps a little.
25,999....for the car
+901.........taxes
+299.........processing fee
= 27,199
Is that a good deal???
that was an incredible price.
was this for an auto or manual. based on invoice from a manual you guys paid some $800 dollars below invoice and if it is an auto you paid ~$1,500 below invoice (this is before the $1500 marketing support)
if it was on an auto that is amazing pricing.
Did you guys have a trade in.
Could you give a break down of the whole purchase including TTL and other fees.
ALso did you guys finance? if so do you mind sharing what you APR was.
I have not seen such aggressive pricing here in houston
I traded in a 1997 Chev Cavalier convertible. The selling price was $13,000. I was amazed that I could get it at that price. It had sold in 2005 for about $33,000.
So far, I love it. It is a bit clunky in the shifting between gas/electric, but that doesn't bother me. The power is incredible. The gas mileage is good, Very good: 26city; 37-38hwy.
Although it has 53,000 miles, it is like new.
Cash for clunkers has raised the prices for cars across the board and for those who do not have an old C4C trade-in, my advice is to wait another 2-3 months and prices will fall to old levels (perhaps $ 1-1.5K lower) - also, most dealers quote a salvage value of $ 0 for a car that is worth $ 1,500 (I would expect salvage value of $ 300-500 on such vehicles). Additionally, with the surge of "clunker" cars going to premature deaths, there are several "indigent" buyers who need and can afford only such cars - I feel that if you have a clunker that gives you close to 18mpg, drives well even if its book value is $ 1000 or so, you are better off not falling for this C4C trap (or crap). In fact, your clunker may be worth a little more (perhaps a $ 1,500 car would go for $ 2,000) due to the scarcity of such cars in the market - further, in several states, you pay sales tax on the clunker you turn in.
Overall, I would advise all not to fall for this C4C - it has only enriched unsrcupulous dealers - if you do the math above, you will realize that there is no benefit to C4C, particularly if your target new vehicle does not qualify and you end up shopping for a plain-vanilla car that is not your original choice but fits the program.
What is the going price for EX-L, 4 cylinder MT Coupe ?
Thanks
Go to realcartips.com to see what others paid. 17-18% off sticker is what most are paying now.
many of the MSRP's seem to be wrong also some other things might affect the % saved.
for instance take the following:
Sedan LX 5-Spd AT Seattle WA $24,299 $19,000 21.81%
the actual msrp for this car ia almost $1000 less. The car probably had some dealer add on because if you take $1000 of that msrp you probably would be at between 18-19% off msrp. remember this is important because all cars have different or no options added to the car so you cannot expect to have the same percent off as this person. so for some one that bought without options it would only be 18-19% off msrp.
also this gives you prices paid everywhere. not every market is the same so depending on your area you have to take other things into account and be realistic on whether you can save that much.
Mrrame: if that is that case that there are only two cars it will be more difficult to negotiate the best price. at least until the 2010 comes out. It is easier to save more on sedans than on coupes so i would really not expect to have the save percentages saved as for sedans.
again if you use realcartips.com click on details. not all people say if they had a trade in. many people that just look at the % saved get happy but dont realize other things affect the price which this site fails to do in my opinion. i think this forum is much more helpful because many people break down their purchase price.
when i saw this % saved i was amazed (from realcartips.com):
Aug 10, 2009 Coupe EX-L V-6 6-Spd MT w/ Navigation System Houston TX $31,625 $24,999 20.95%
20.95% would be great an unreal at least in the houston area (trust me on this).
when you go to details it says there was a trade in and that dealer gave them $6500 fot it. so if he got c4c or marketing support it is not specified but it still seems to me as if this person paid more than they should (if they got the both cash supports). if not that means he/she paid msrp for the car
so can you know see that 20.95% was not saved.
However, I found that unless a dealer is very low on stock, the 17% plus discount on sticker is a good starting point. I had numerous quotes on a Honda LX-P sedan, auto and they all fell into the 17% discount off sticker.
One exception was a dealer in Maumee, Ohio who claimed no one would actually sell the car for that amount and refused to deal as the others had. He very arrogantly said that they would sell the car to someone else and they basically did not need my business even though I purchased several cars from him in the past. I went to my car and called one of the others dealers and they even reduced the price another $125.
I gave the salesman a credit card deposit over the phone and picked it up 2 days later. It was a very smooth process.
By the way, the arrogant salesman looked at the realcartips.com site and said this site could not be accurate even though my deal was considered a very good deal on this site.
I e mailed him as a courtesy to tell him that I did in fact get the deal that was quoted and it was even better than first proposed. He immediately e mailed me and phoned me with a pathetic plea to earn my business saying he was upset with his managers and threatened to quit the dealership due to a family he had to support. Amazingly, 1 hour after his refusal to deal, he pleaded with me in his e mail to match the original deal.
I didn't return his call.
The bottom line is that a 2009 Accord should be reduced at least 17% off sticker. There is, as we all know, a $1500 incentive, holdback of 2% off MSRP and other volume incentives to the dealer from the manufacturer. Document fees are pure profit also. I paid a $250 document fee which is allowed by the State of Ohio.
I also paid cash for the car and they made no profit on financing.
Those on realcartips.com that claim a 20% discount off sticker have cars with numerous add ons. Those that have an accurate MSRP on this site show a 16-17% discount. If you don't get such a 2009 discount off the Accord, wait for a 2010 and wait a few months for Honda to reinstitute an incentive.
By the way, I paid $19,369 for an LX-P with splashguards installed (worth around $105) and my discount was 17.5% off sticker. 3 different dealers matched the deal. I added leather seats at a custom car company for $1000 and have a EX-L minus a sunroof and 13 hp for $20,369.00.
what are the factors in purchasing verses leasing car.
i was reading some of the post and did not under stand some of the phrases used.
what is this about taxes and fees paid get back next year on income tax...is ti from fed or state?
where can i find invoice cost? what is hold back money?
if any one has any thoughts I would appriciate.
thanks
