R350
All car dealers are hurting. You can get a loaded Odyssey for $32-$34k

Prices paid for 09 Odyssey

Prices paid for new 08 Odyssey
http://www.odyclub.com/forums/showth...ht=prices+paid

I own both vehicles. The odyssey for my wife and transporting the baby. R for me and occasionally transporting the baby and surfboards.

And you'll have DVD headrests, etc., plus the tri-star on your hood, and piece of mind.

W/ a CPO the deal gets even better. There are some loaded '08's w/ low miles going for $ high 20's, low 30's. And you can wedge the extended warranty in there for that price as well.

My buddy and I both got a brand new 2008 R350 last year. He got a brand new R350 P1 4Matic, Ipod kit, pano roof, optional color for 37K flat. I got a brand new R350 4Matic P2, pano roof, Ipod kit, heated seats, 10 miles on odo for 40,200. We were both in the market for the Honda Odyssey Touring until we saw how amazing the trunk money was for MB.

Good choice. Last summer I got my '06 R350 for the same amount of money that my colleague paid for his brand new end-of-year-sale '08 odyssey. Still feel bad for him...

My neighbor a street over just got her '09 Sienna Limited with Xenon, DVD/NAVI, power everything including the third row for $32k (listed for $44k). It is not AWD but probably worth 1k more for it.
