Should I turn my 2004 EX-RES in for a new 2007 lease
by cbsprings on Wed May 23 05:19:19 PDT 2007
I have a 2004 Odyssey EX-RES that I have been leasing for 199.00 per month at 15,000 per year initially for 2yrs(extended it to 3yrs). It currently has 41,000 miles and my lease can renew on the 22nd of June, 2007. The residual value is now 18,006.84 I can't decide whether to keep this deal or get a new lease. The car runs fine,although I probably will need tires soon,and maybe brakes at some point. I used to live in NH and moved to MD so I had to pay 5% tax on the purchase price to register it again last year! NH has no excise tax so MD gets you for it when you register a car here. A new lease means I will have a big registration fee and an increase in my monthly car payment. I need advice on a great deal for a similar Odyssey that would be worth switching to, otherwise I may keep it for one more year till my registration runs out. Any advice would be appreciated. I realize my payment won't be 199.00 but I am not willing to pay over 400.00 per month for this vehicle. I saw an LX ad on TV for 279.00. Also I don't know if I can find a deal with no money down or very little down. I live near Frederick, MD(30 minutes outside DC)if you have any dealers in the area that you can recommend that would be appreciated.
PURCHASE REPORT - Civic LX near Baltimore, MD
by loki74 on Wed Apr 25 00:31:50 PDT 2007
Hello all - I just purchased my new 2007 Honda Civic LX – Galaxy Gray. Here is my sales report. Because different numbers mean different things to people here, I'll try to list everything. ACCORDING TO EDMUNDS MSRP: $16,960 INVOICE: $15,616 DESTINATION: $595 What I paid – O'Donnell Honda, Ellicott City, MD Car: $15,302 Destination: $595 Subtotal: $15,897 Doc: $99 (not required in MD, but apparently tough to drop) Sales Tax: $799.80 Subtotal: $16,795.80 I transferred the plates, so - Registration: $30 Title: $43 MD Tire fee: $4 TOTAL: $16,872.80 Method used: Email blind bids A little more detail: I knew I was going to buy at the end of this month. I did not want to wait any longer because of the car I was driving (97 Nissan Sentra with 147,500 on it) and I wanted to take advantage of the financing deal in the region (I was fairly certain I would qualify). On Sunday, April 22, I emailed every dealer that appeared on the Honda search engine when I punched in my zip code. I did an additional search for dealers in Frederick, MD, and added Criswell in Germantown because of discussions on this board. For every dealer site where I could find direct emails, I emaled directly to a person. On the sites I could not, I requested a quote. Here's how I emailed – I BCCed all the dealers. I told them specifically what I was looking for (LX, no options) preferably in one of 3 colors, and I told them about the 2 colors I would NOT drive. I asked for their best quote up front. I told them I would be financing, but ONLY if their rate beat my pre-approved rate through my credit union. I did NOT disclose that I MIGHT trade in my current car. I asked all the dealers to give me the base price of the car and itemize all the other charges. I told them if they had something close, but not exactly fitting my request, that I would like to see the quote, but to itemize the difference. I included my phone number to help prove that I was a serious buyer, and told them they could call, but that I would NOT call back unless there was also a detailed quote in my email box. I had a number in mind from a soft quote in March – about $15,200. I was willing to go with a bid of $15,400, because I felt conditions had worsened for BUYERS; namely, gas prices have increased, and so have sales of Civics after a BRUTAL February and March for them. The response was sudden and VERY interesting. I received LOTS of emails (some very entertaining), and I only received about 5 or 6 calls, but some have called twice now. Some quotes were well above STICKER. Some were close, but admitted to having “appearance packages.” There were a couple $15,400's. The only quote that came close to O'Donnell's was from Norris Honda, also in Ellicott City. They quoted me an OUT-THE-DOOR price of slightly more than $17,000. Since O'Donnell itemized the deal, and showed me the out-the-door price below $17,000, the winner was clear. I might have done better had I engaged in an email bidding war as some here might suggest, but I did want to reward the dealer with the best quote if it was close to what I thought I could get, and make the process easier for me. $100 was close enough. I was not sure any dealer could drop the price seriously enough to make a difference. Perhaps I should have asked, but I felt $300 below invoice was good enough. Once at O'Donnell, the process was very smooth. Everyone was friendly. The test drive went very smoothly. They did ask me about buying an extended warranty (declined), and about purchasing LoJac (apparently, a requirement in Maryland – also declined). In F&I, they did NOT ask me to buy ANYTHING – it was also very late in the day. The whole process, including the test drive, took about 2 hours, but that's because of me (I was checking EVERYTHING) and because they were closing 2 deals ahead of me. My suggestions for others - Get direct email addresses of the internet people at the dealerships. Those responses were definitely better. Email everyone you can. My employer allegedly has a relationship with Mile One, but it didn't pay off. Their quote was about $400 too high. For people who have been following my postings, I decided to trade-in my Sentra. I was interested in selling it myself, but the driver-side window failed to function. I felt it would have been much more difficult to sell it myself in that condition, or too costly and time consuming to repair it myself and then sell it. The dealer gave me $500 for it. Honestly, I hope they make an extra buck on that – it was a good car. :) Thanks to everyone on this board. I am a novice car buyer to be sure, and these boards contain all the information you would need to buy a car. A special thanks to GGG5. I loved his advice about what to do on the delivery drive/inspection. But (if you are reading this), I used it as more of a guide – I left my tape measure at home. ;) BTW, I did my initial email from Seattle – I was on vacation at the time. Gotta love the internet! :) I think I've answered just about every question I would have, but feel free to reply. I'm curious what everyone thinks. ...and it's been driving great for the first 50 miles. :) Loki

I ended up buying from the dealer closest to me, Shockley Honda in Frederick, MD. As I said, very smooth transaction. No complaints at all. Prices from the other dealers (via the internet) were, for the most part, pretty comparable. One dealer was $1000 more than the others, but the other 3 were within a couple hundred dollars of each other. That's why I didn't try to haggle Shockley too much. First oil change free, plus free carwashes.

Good deal on EXL-RES in MD, DC, VA Area
by olio on Sun Feb 13 14:20:53 PST 2005
Someone awhile ago posted looking for prices paid in the MD/VA/DC area.   I Just completed a very good transaction on a Slate Green Metallic EXL-RES at Honda of Bowie. Many thanks to the contributors of this board, which I think helped me negotiate a $29872 + Dest + Process Fee + Tax + Tags deal. $31432 over-the-curb. Negotiated the price over e-mail/phone with a very, very, good sales lady. Always returned calls, prompt e-mails, and no surprises when I got to the dealership (about an hour drive). Although the ~2 hours to seal the deal was excruciating with a fussy infant, it was not unrealistic considering the test drive for the missus, and the sales lady going over the features, etc. No hard sell on the extended warranty or Scotchguard. Not the best deal on the board, but I was satisfied.   Also, Shockley Honda in Frederick, MD could beat the price and had NO process fee, but the wait was until the end of February. Too long for us as our Jeep sold surprisingly quick, leaving us with just one car, so we needed to buy fast.   Again, many thanks to the contributors, without it we would all be paying MSRP or above!! It is truly a wonderful van.   Good luck to all!!
NJ, PA, DE and MD Shoppers - Got $1960 below MSRP on EX-L RES
by fin074 on Tue Mar 25 11:03:49 PST 2003
In January 2003, I started looking for a 2003 Honda Odyssey EX-L RES (rear entertainment system or DVD). The MSRP is $30,360 including destination. On January 29, 2003 (the last Wednesday of the month), I faxed a request-for-quotes to 26 dealers in Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and my home state of Delaware. Whew!!! I did not fax my 2 closest local dealers (Union Park Honda in Wilmington, DE and Martin Honda in Newark, DE). I wanted to give the local dealers a chance to counter the best "long distance" offer in exchange for letting them know that I would be bringing the vehicle in to them for service (and saving myself perhaps a long distance trip to pick up the vehicle)  I received 10 responses to my fax within 3 hours (most responses were by phone). I received a total of 15 responses within 24 hours, 11 didn't respond at all for a response rate of 58%. 6 or 7 dealers were still quoting MSRP+. New Jersey and Maryland dealers seemed to be the worst on price. The best quote I got back was $28,500 ($1,860 below MSRP) from Frederick Honda in Hershey, PA. I relayed this quote to the two local dealers. They did not meet or beat that quote...initially. I used a credit card to make a deposit with Frederick Honda. Delivery was scheduled for February... then mid March... then late March. I was starting to get worried (I never asked for a VIN#), but in the meantime, I received a phone call Union Park who said they had my exact vehicle on the lot and would sell it for $28,400 ($1,041 over invoice / $1,960 below MSRP) -- beating the best offer by $100. The deal was completed on March 15th 2003. No pressure, and Union Park let me charge $3000 to my credit card to get those bonus miles! Maybe I was able to score a good deal since I was told after the deal closed that they had 3 Sage Ody's on their lot (somehow due to the recent snows) Feel free to email me (stinky_bokinky@SPAM.SUXyahoo.com)if you wanna chat -- you can figure out what to remove.
