How to make the offer
Walk in with a number, not a hope.
Negotiate the out-the-door price, never the monthly payment. Ask for the total that includes selling price, tax, DMV fees and every product, then compare it to the $38,711 figure above. A payment can be made to look like anything by stretching the term.
Open below your target so you have somewhere to move. On a Honda Odyssey at $38,711, opening near $37,550 is credible rather than insulting, and it leaves room to settle in the middle.
Before you sign, get a pre-purchase inspection from an independent shop, run the VIN for open recalls, and read every line of the worksheet. Dealer prep, reconditioning and market adjustment lines are profit, not requirements.

Questions we get
Honda Odyssey buying questions, answered straight.
What should I pay for a used Honda Odyssey?
A 2025 Honda Odyssey with about 12,000 miles in clean condition sits near $38,711 on our estimate. Open around $37,550 and treat anything over $40,647 as a deal to walk away from unless the car is unusually well equipped or documented.
Is a Honda Odyssey expensive to own?
It averages about 22 MPG combined, which is the single biggest running cost for most owners. Front-wheel drive only, and no hybrid option
How many miles is too many on a Odyssey?
Judge miles against age, not against a round number. We expect roughly 12,000 miles a year, so 2020 examples land near 72,000. A well-documented higher-mileage car often beats a neglected low-mileage one.
Which fees should I refuse on a Odyssey?
Pay sales tax, DMV registration and title, the state tire fee and California's capped document fee. Question dealer prep, reconditioning, market adjustments, nitrogen tires, VIN etching and paint sealant — none of those are required to register the car.
