Speak to Daniel. Refer my name as albert referred you...

Honda Care 8yr/100K Warranty - $1590 + 7% Tax (they were not matching the online honda care price $1290, ripped me here)

Total OTD: $34,246

Has anyone else in the Houston area gotten a better deal on a 2013 Honda Odyssey EX-L w/ RES? If so, please refer me to the dealer I should be talking to!
I am leaning towards a Touring model now. Should never have driven the 6 speed transmission...
Total OTD - $36,7XX.XX (including Warranty and Accessories)
Dealer - Open Road Honda, NJ
Other offers I had -
$34,600 OTD (Planet Honda, NJ)
Hope this helps someone. I would be happy to share my experience!
Wasn't sure how hard I should keep trying to bargain or if we are getting pretty much the best we can get around here.
A local Honda dealer is also including free lifetime power train warranty. I'm hoping they'll beat the other offers I've received.
$36,077.50 from DCH honda
$35735.25 from piazza honda in pa
Not exactly thrilled with either offer. We are definitely buying this month, as have our third on its way in April. Also hoping for better at the end of the month.
This shows a 2011 Touring Elite in a long term test in the Nov 2012 write-up with almost 28K miles and no mention of a transmission issue.
In fact they highly recommend the van.
Can you link to the article?
Bottomline, Motortrend recommends the van with almost 30K miles on it. Consumer Reports just published their latest report.
Consumer Reports just realeased their top picks for 2013: http://news.consumerreports.org/cars/2013/02/consumer-reports-names-its-201- 3-top-picks.html
Odyssey was named the top pick for minivans.
"All Top Picks must meet Consumer Reports' stringent criteria in three areas: road test, reliability, and safety."
If the transmission in all Odyssey's was faulty, well, I don't believe CR would name it a top pick.
I believe, based on my personal ownership of Honda/Acura vehicles as well as extensive research on the Internet, Honda/Acura transmission is the weakest part of their vehicles and you have higher chance of having an issue with transmission later down the road of your ownership. I'm not sure how the 2011~ Odyssey's will turn out to be but plenty of previous generations (1999-2010) Odyssey owners experienced unacceptably high transmission failure rate.

I'd still consider buying a new Odyssey simply because there are no other minivans that's better than Odyssey (Sienna's interior feels really cheap).
$34058 for the EX-L w/RES
$38838 for the Touring.
This is from a dealer who is less than 30 miles away so not too far. I am not sure if I can get them lower if I wait until the last week of the month, but I might be able to get some more for my trade-in or get them to lower the price another couple hundred. Would love to be out the door for under $34K for an EX-L w/RES or closer to $38,500 for the Touring OTD.
Expand your search if you need to. I have two dealers battling for me right now and am pretty sure I can get more for my trade-in from them.
Based on Edmunds, Invoice + Destination for base EXL is $33,034. I was given a quote for a base of $31,214 ($1820 below invoice). Below is a breakdown of my quote for 2013 EXL without Nav or RES -
Base - $31,214
Tax (NJ 7%) - $2,185
Doc fees, Tire tax, DMV - $351
TOTAL - $33,750
This includes mud guards, wheel locks, window etching and cargo tray.
I just bought 2013 Odyssey EXL (no RES or Nav) for $34,150 OTD (w/ new plates) including wheel locks, splash guards and lifetime oil change. Could have negotiated a couple hundred more but it was a fair deal.
I was quoted $348/month with 12,000 miles a year. I would then have 595 bank fee, registration, plates, plus first month so all said and done about $1300 due at signing. Is this a good price.
2013 Odyssey EX-L (no RES no NAV)
I would follow that advice. You negotiate leasing a car just like buying. You want the lowest price possible as that directly affects your payment, and the moneyfactor is key in that as well.
Bank fee looks like acquisition fee which is pretty typical.
Hope that will help someone else. The prices I got quoted were all over the place, but this seemed very reasonable.
This is in Missouri.
I was quoted 36,488 for a 2013 Touring (includes dest. charge but NOT tax & registration)
I was also quoted 36,193 for a TOPAZ 2013 Touring [quoted by two different dealerships]. I'm assuming this is because almost no one wants a Topaz color.
The 2014 Odyssey mid cycle refresh is being announced at the New York Auto show next week, I wonder how this will impact sales of the 2013. Dealers may get more aggressive heading into summer as the 14's start arriving on their lots.
Vehicle Price with destination and all accessories: $32,900
NC Highway Use Tax: $987
Doc, Tag, Title Fee: Around $300
OTD: $34,200
2013 Touring in Polished Metal $40061.23 OTD
Sales Price: $36488
Document Fee: $80 (they prepare all DMV paperwork)
State Tire Tax: $20
Tax here is 8.50%: $3108.28
Title & Registration: $335.75
We financed through our credit union at 2.5% for 72 mo. Put down $22,700. Monthly payment of $260.
Our intentions are to triple/quadruple up on payments and have it paid in 1-2 years.
Driving the car is like driving a cloud! Cannot believe the turn radius - best value for the money in my opinion. We went to test drive a Toyota Sienna and didn't get that far - we couldn't get past the cheap interior and craptastic 2nd row seat... the middle section was so whimsical that the salesman himself couldn't figure out how to get it to stay down or up.
Good luck guys!
Base Price : $35,750
OTD : $37,365
Dealer initially offered 8yr/100k Hondacare warranty for $1695, but when I pointed out that Saccucci Honda offered it for $1290, he immediately offered to match it. All of that plus the 0.9% financing sealed the deal for me.
Lots of dealers in the area offered prices in the low $36K range for the Touring model, possibly because because dealers are motivated to get rid of their inventory with the new 2014 model refresh being announced next week.
2013 Odyssey Touring MSRP is $42360
2013 Odyssey Touring Invoice price is $38785 (price includes destination)
Honda dealer holdback is 2% off MSRP which would be $847
Honda marketing incentive to dealers is $1000 cash back right now per Edmunds and TrueCar.
If a dealer sold the car at invoice and gave you the dealer incentive the price would be $37785 including the destination. If they decide to dip into the holdback and give you 100% of it back the price would be $36938. The lowest price I can get in a 200 mile radius across multiple states is $37285 which is $1600 under invoice and means the dealer is selling at invoice minus the Honda incentive minus $600 of dealer holdback. If you are getting it for $35500 or so that means the dealer is taking a big hit. Are you sure the prices you guys are quoting includes destination and accessories? Are you sure the van is not a demo model that does not have more than 50 miles or so on the odometer?
I have had two dealer laugh at me when I asked for under $37K on the van and only three dealers would sell the van at $1500-1600 below invoice. The rest tell me that can't touch it. Perhaps there are other regional incentives that Edmunds, TrueCar, etc are not aware of?
I know I have hit a wall with my dealers, I am just shocked that folks are getting these vans for $35-36K with accessories, destination, etc. Based on what I know, that means your dealer is most likely losing $1000-15000 on the sale.
If you're questioning the validity of my claim I can post a copy of my invoice (with my name blurred out of course).
Maybe you need to hop a flight to California and just buy the damn thing here.
I had posted the deal details earlier in this thread for reference. There is also a link elsewhere in this thread someone posted for a dealer in Massachusetts that lists the exact price on their web site they will sell at. I think its this one: link title
Maybe worth a drive to buy a car up there! It was worth it for me to drive up to GA from FL to buy 2 cars in the last 4 years. YMMV.
Though I doubt it.
Good luck!
There are several dealers in the Richmond Virginia area who are quoting prices in the low 36K range, and am sure are willing to negotiate down further a bit.
Something to keep in mind is that the 2014 Odyssey refresh is being announced next week, so dealers may be extra motivated to clear their inventory
That includes destination and all other "fees"
just not TTL.
They even got me the blue that was difficult to find for no extra charge
I am sure they are making money on the deal, otherwise they wouldn't be doing it.
Even with $500 shipping cost I would be saving well over $1K.
I am going to see what my dealer is going to give us on our trade-in, but if he comes in low on the trade-in, I might go this route. Trade-in does help here for the tax incentive (I would pay quite a bit less in tax trading in vs not trading in) but local private sale should be easy with the van too as used Odyssey's seem pretty popular.
