Price on 2004 Accord EX V6

Discussion in 'Accord' started by Im anonymous, Jan 14, 2004.

  1. If you pay one of those prices, you are getting a fine deal. I'm not saying
    that you wont be able to find a lower price. What I'm saying is that you
    should have no guilt paying those prices. But it will be worth it to call
    the Internet sales departments of a few other dealers and see if they can
    beat them.

    I bought an Accord Coupe EX-L V6 6speed non Navi with no additional options
    for $25,000 even last month. I bought it in the central Texas area. Edmunds
    listed the TMV price as MSRP+Dest.& handling $26,960.

    So when I didn't see one in the color I wanted on the lot of a new Honda
    dealer that opened up here recently I offered $25K, figuring they 1)
    wouldn't be able to obtain one and 2)could not sell one at that price. I
    guess I could have asked for a thousand dollars less because they accepted
    the price without a counter offer. That was Ok because I forced them into
    matching the trade allowance offered by another dealer ( it was $1150 more
    than their initial trade appraisal )

    The end of December might be easier time to get deals as dealers are trying
    to slash inventories.

    wow. I don't know about the prices of the V6 EX accord. All I know
    is that for that price, the TSX seems like a much nicer car. It has
    200 Horsepowers, a six speed manual shift; all leather seats, a VSA
    and traction control system. And it is an Acura (Acuras are extremely
    nice, the way they do their luxury cars). I suppose that it may cost
    more if you want Nav in the TSX. And also, it is a I-4 instead of V6,
    but it is also lighter and I bet it will beat the accord off the line
    in an all out race.

    Sorry to get off topic on ya. Just wanted to make sure you didn't
    totally rule out the TSX before you bought the Accord.

    cheers.

    So that was without tax, I assume? Was the price of the car, plus tax, title, etc?

    Accord V6: 240HP 212 lb-ft torque, 3285 lbs
    TSX: 200HP 166 lb-ft torque, 3230 lbs.

    I'd say the Accord is *considerably* faster. As a matter of a fact,
    it's kind of dissapointing Acura (Honda) didn't offer a V6 in a luxury
    car like that.

    Ummmmmm, yeah.....I'm just saying it's a shame that car is only
    offered with a 4cyl, REGARDLESS of what else Acura makes.

    I can't give the exact numbers because I traded in a vehicle and that lowers
    the tax. State of Texas deducts trade value from price of vehicle before
    figuring tax you pay on new vehicle ( They figure you have already paid tax
    on trade in vehicle when you bought it )

    Add about $1800 if you don't have a trade for tax, title and license in TX.
    Could be lower or higher in another state, depends on your states vehicle
    sales tax rate and fees.

    I was originally looking to get a 2004 TSX, but no area dealer wanted to
    budge on the MSRP price of around $27,000. TSX has a much better interior
    dash layout and probably better build quality but comes with a 200 hp 2.4
    liter 4 cyl. engine that requires premium fuel.

    Honda V6 6 speed coupe, as someone said, has a 240 HP 3.0 liter V6 that
    burns regular. It comes standard with XM satellite radio, 17" wheels with
    Michelin tires and 180 watt premium sound system. The clincher for Me was
    that Honda Finance Corp. was offering 2.9% APR for 48 months on all
    Accords.Worth about another$1500 in savings over the length of car loan.

    I suppose you are correct. I guess I am just used to the sounds of 4
    cylinders and I have a bias toward 4 inliners like the Prelude. I
    guess I am the typical asian who for some reason are drawn to the
    ricer burners.

    The prelude is a four cylinder and makes considerably better sounding
    and revving driving experience than a tame and quiet V6. I believe
    hearing the engine revving up is a great part of the experience of
    driving a fast car. Just isn't the same with a V6.

    by the way, have you considered the TL? That is an Acura luxury V6
    with leather.

    sicnerely.

    I miss the Prelude, Integra type R and Acura CL coupe S type too. You can
    only buy what Honda now sells.( Wish I could afford a NSX or that the S2000
    had a rear seat and useable trunk size ) For a thousand or two more than the
    price of a 2004 Acura TL you could buy a Infiniti G35 Coupe 6 speed with
    280HP, rear wheel drive and a top speed of around 155 mph.

    I just decided I could make do with a less horsepower, less speed and could
    better use the 9 or 10 thousand dollars I'd be saving.
    You really do need to hear the exhaust note from the latest generation
    Accord Coupe V6 6speed. It has a nice exhaust growl in contrast to a run of
    the mill Accord auto V6 .
    It is not as agile as any of the previously mentioned cars or even as nimble
    as the 1998 Accord Coupe 4cyl 2.3 VTEC 5 speed I once owned.

    But for the buck it's a decent, quick, fun to drive ride. I'm just
    beginning to open it up and today I was rewarded by a pleasant tire chirp
    when I popped the clutch in second. Auto magazine articles say that it
    should run near mid 14 second quarter miles and I'm guessing top speed is in
    the 130 to 135 MPH range.

    The downside to the latest version of Accords is the awful design of the
    a/c heater controls. And also the build quality isn't on par with Acura or
    maybe even on par with the quality of the late 80's early 90's Honda's.

    You do have a good point however about the 4's. The 3L V6 is so
    quiet, which isn't necessarily bad but I wouldn't mind a little more
    audible feedback.

    I told myself I wasn't buying a 4 cyl. I just like the generally
    higher torque characteristics of 6's over 4's. I have already bought
    the Accord, not quite a week ago. I'd say it's not quite luxury, but
    it does have leather heated seats, moonroof, traction control, 6
    speaker 180W 6 disc in dash CD and XM radio, dual zone climate
    control, 17" wheels......and Acura doesn't offer a 2 door I believe.
    This seemed like the right way to go.
