I think you could have still got a quote from them and taken a print out with you showing the price. Honda Care can be used Nationwide and so even if I brought my Warranty online I should be able to use it to Service at a California Dealer. On the other hand, comparing the Price you got on the Car, you can definitely ignore those 300$.
Good Luck and Happy Driving !!!
In either case, I'm happy - back in 2009, I bought a 4WD Touring w/RES (which was optional in '09) for myself for $35,500, and paid $1,700 for the warranty. The new one is for my wife (total lie, it's so she stops borrowing mine all of the time.)
The best part was I could trade it in for 22500$ + Got a Check from Insurance for 7100$ (Hail Damage) -- Thus, 29,600$ for a 3 yr old Car was just too good of a deal and hence went with the Upgrade to Touring.
Options include roof rails, cross bars, Tint, Pro seal package, premium chrome running boards, door guards, RES, wheel locks. Not sure why options cost so much.
Haggled with salesman for about an hour, they wanted to deal at $34500 plus ttl = roughly 36700 OTD.
I did not take the deal and countered 34000 plus ttl and walked out the door. It was close but last time i bought a CR-V I caved in. They called me back and said $34000 is ok. Nevertheless, now I'm thinking about it and not sure if I'll take the deal. It is a good deal or I can just try and get EX-L with above options without the RES for slightly cheaper? Looks like someone was able to get EX-L basic 2WD model for roughly $31100
Can you please post May money factor and residual figures for 2012 Honda Pilot EX 4WD, lease for 15k miles per year, zip code is 11803.
Thanks!
Thanks
I got the PILOT EXL 2WD with RES for around 32K +TTL with tint, door gaurds, wheel locks , all weather mats , cargo mat and pin stripe. (OTD - 34250) in Dallas Area.
I think running board and roof rack will be $1500 more .
Hope this info help you

Last but not the least, make sure you ask them to throw in the All Weather Mats. The cloth ones that come with the Honda are pathetic (they don't even have the logo anymore) and you will need the All Weather ones (cost about 150$ online and 200$ in store).
I have 2 kids so RES is very effective because its in built in and comes with 2 sets of wireless headsets . DVD controls all built in your CD/DVD area and even RES is ON you can play your music when kids are enjoying their movie with head sets. After market won't give you that added advantage .
EXL with RES also comes with 120V power i feel very effective when you are on road more time. no need of any conversion plugs for your laptop.
So far i m loving my vehicle. looking to add roof rails and running boards in future.
Hope this helps

I am looking for a used 2012 Pilot at autotrader.com, just don't understand
why these used 2012 Pilot is priced equal or more than a brand new one, I mean more than
the paid prices reported here or quotes from the dealers....and I check most of them don't have
expensive add ons...
I know you can always talk the price down...but what is the point for marking it higher
than a new one(same trim level) ? Buyers arn't stupid right ?
Is there any reason ?
Examples:
EX(3030 miles) 31900$
LX(5813 miles) 28995$
EX-L (754 miles) 32900$
EX-L w/NAV (4127 miles) 35477$
Touring 2wd (943 miles ) 37991$
The premium chrome running boards go for $500 on ebay and the roof rails with cross bars go for $360. Unless the dealership puts them on for about $1k, I'd go the DIY route.
what dealer did you purchase from. that sounds great, I'm looking to get one by the end of May.
Thanks in advance. (Also in Orange county, CA.)
Is $32,500 doable?
We have a 2011 Pilot and a 2008 Civic. Both were purchased new. In both cases, I sought quotes from nearly all of the Honda dealerships in the DFW metroplex. In both cases, Rusty Wallis had the lowest quote before add-ons. We purchased the Civic from Rusty Wallis. We purchased the Pilot from Huggins Honda in Fort Worth because they matched the quote from Rusty Wallis and threw in some add-ons for virtually nothing.
Hope that helps. Good luck!
The dealer was Weseloh Honda in San Juan Capistrano. Please bear in mind that I was taking advantage of a perfect storm (from a buyer's perspective):
1 - I was buying toward the end of the "Honda's Really Big Sales Event" in April. The dealership's management was particularly receptive to offers, even those with slim margins, because even those deals helped to ensure that they hit their sales target for the factory-to-dealer incentives.
2 - They had the vehicle on the lot. This eliminated the need to try and work a trade with another dealer (that could fall through.)
3 - We had pre-qualified for the 1.9% APR from Honda Financial Services before we approached them. This removed the, "can they get financed", variable from the equation.
With the inventory availability and financing out of the way, it simply came down to everyone needing to conduct themselves well.
I am in dallas area too.
my dealer is honda cars of mckinney.
let me know if you need any more details. i bought it last week of last month.
Thanks

I bought 2012 PILOT EXL 2WD with RES for 32K + TTL from honda of mckinney. Hope this info help you.
Thanks

I just purchased a new Alabaster Silver Metallic with Gray interior 2012 Honda Pilot Touring 4WD Automatic from Open Road Honda in Edison, NJ for $36,000 including destination charge. I also paid a $100 fee, the registration fee and taxes. From start to finish, the transaction (including a test drive, financing and purchasing the vehicle) lasted 2-3 hours. Professionalism, courtesy and respect was the order of the day. I was able to obtain 1.9% interest financing offered by Honda Financial Services for 60 months. An application is available online.
have anyone had much luck on haggling over the few add-ons which you may add to a Touring (more external visors, etc). I got down to 35.5 including dest/del charge + TTL, before add-ons or even the idea of trade-in.
I checked at Rusty Wallis, McNatt ..
(truecar.com : Up until a week ago it showed the hi-lo range of prices, now just the average; and a year ago it showed the trend line so you could see if it was rising or falling over previous months.)
Anyway, I got email/website quotes through various sources and then contacted other appealing dealers (dealerrater.com/google ratings/yelp) to see if they could beat my lowest quote. Then at the dealership, a little more negotiation (at the end of the month).
SUV - $38,100 (includes dest.)
Running Boards - $750.00
Total Vehicle price of $38,850 + Tax, Title & Registration
Any thoughts out there on the price? I was told the dealer doesn't cut into holdback during negotiations and that they were giving me their $500.00 factory incentive. Please keep in mind to that this dealer includes a 7yr, 100,000k mile limited warranty with all of their new vehicle purchases.
What do you think?
2001 Prelude Type SH, 2022 Highlander XLE AWD, 2022 Wrangler Sahara 4Xe, 2023 Toyota Tacoma SR 4WD
I ended up buying 2 cars, Pilot 2012 LX 2WD for me ( a gift from my wife for early fathers day and early birthday , paid $27100 OTD including all season floor mat and cargo tray) and 2012 CR-V LX AWD for my wife (Paid $23900 OTD including mud guard only). I hope I did well with the price.
Dealer #1 offered it up at 36,899 (not including tax + document fee)
Dealer #2 offered 36,430 (")
This morning Dealer #1 sent an email and just asked me to name a price and he will send back a simple yes or no.
I'm not really sure how low I should go. Any advice? Should I also ask him to throw in the cargo tray & floor mats?
Also how do I take the $500 factory to dealer incentive into account?
I am very new to this. Thanks in advance for any help offered.
$29,320
38,700 (includes dest and black side steps)
229 administrative fee
4 lien fee
1 tire fee
3,367.36 (KS sales tax)
Total: 42,301.36
Thoughts?
I got one of $30800+Tax+Doc fee($300) at Utah.
I got 2 quotes for the 4wd EX-L with Entertainment Pack: $35,067 and $34.992. I was also quoted for a Touring for $38,349.
I saw 2 people got the Touring for about $36,000 in May. Still waiting on other quotes to see if I can get something close to that.
When getting a quote, make sure you check all the fees. Window etching, car cleaning, doc fees, tire fees, etc. can quickly add up.
Thanks!
