[quote=Anonymous]Aside from the great advice above - DO YOUR RESEARCH and go car shopping on a weekday!!!!

We got a FANTASTIC deal on an Odyssey because we literally looked for EVERY Odyssey in the DMV area via Edmonds, KBB, whatever.  We found one that was listed at a PG dealership for a very low price (we're in MoCo).

We kept that place as our last stop, the took a vacation day on a random Tuesday, and just went from dealer to dealer (that had an Odyssey in stock) starting to the closest to our house.

We walked in to each place with the printout in hand saying "hey - we know *this* car exists.  We only have today to buy a car, so if you can meet the offer, great!  Otherwise we're just going to take the long drive to this place".

At the third place we went to (Darcars at Cherry Hill) the sales person just said "You know what?  We'll meet that deal if you commit to signing right now."

We did, and honestly paid about $7k less than what we would have been willing to do.

Don't know if it will work for you, but from now on, that's absolutely how I'm buying any car from now on. :)
