Odyssey Luxury MY07 used price ?

[JazzMi]

The interior for carbon bronze is beige? Unless if you're talking about the based model. I paid for my 08 white odyssey luxury for $43000 brand new on january 09. The dealer had to swap their black odyssey with a white odyssey from a dealer in queensland as there's only 1 dealer in victoria that had white and i didn't want to deal with them. I even got a better car as mine was built 2 months newer than the other one. The freight is only around $500 from melbourne to perth.

Hi Atjo, I've seen a couple of Carbon Bronze with black leather in the Eastern States but they are rare. You were lucky to get the Luxury My08 for such a good price ! must have been due to the new RB3 version coming through ! Would have paid $43K for a new one but was not in the market for one until now.

For a new one, I would freight it but for a used one, I need to see it as you just don't know...
(Actually, I checked the freight recently and from Melbourne, it's more like $1200..)

I just looked at carsales and there are only 7 carbon bronze odysseys for sale in all states. Btw, are you sure that carbon bronze luxury ever come in black interior? Cause i never seen one and all the 7 cars for sale with beige interior.

the seller states "leather shift knob"????? btw, what's the use of the button on right dash panel beside the steering wheel?

[Atjo]

Which button??

[JazzMi]

Looks like an empty slot...I've seen that on a few of them.

Guys, just another question, since you are all ODC owners already, anything I should look out for on the ODC when I buy a 2nd hand one ? (I'm a virgin used car purchaser !)

That's the coin tray (I think that's what it's there for).
Next to that blank cover, then sunroof controls.

I just saw a 07 Lux for $40,990 in Toowoomba.
Guessing he got about $35k trade-in......

Check the brakes for disc warping / wobble.
Must have service history.
If it's just about to need the 40,000km service take $600 off the price!
Check the tyres (esp rear) inside edges for wear. The rest of the tyre can be just about perfect but that inside edge could have worn off.
Makes sure everything works inside....

thanks qld_odc for the info. !

Much appreciated

I saw one today, 63K MY07 Lux 2006 model Silver, asking $34880, but the leather was stained with what looks like "Milk Stains". Also, the edge of the doors were worn and one was rusting on the edge. I would think this is worth around $27K !

Is the leather seats easy to clean ?

There should be enough mint condition Ody's around to just walk away from anything that looks dodgy (ie rust)

Looks like $35k is about the asking price / trade price for the 06/07s.
I meant to say that the $40k one in Toowoomba was overpriced.....

Leather is easy to clean using the right products - what you describe could be water stains though...and I'm not sure about that.

The strange thing is, there is a dealer in Victoria advertising an Odyssey for $41990 with 5000km and it's a MY09 model, not luxury, so no leather, moon-roof and electric chairs...and he can do a better price too ! gee if the difference is only ~$5000 I would have to to reconsider a new/demo model to a luxury MY07...

(Assuming $36,000 for a MY07 with 20,000km and a MY09 Standard at $41,000 with 5000km)
