Is it weird !!! either they have discount of $10000 or all of 2009 Pilots gone to rental car companies.
Especially from 2 dealers: Honda Cars of McKinney or David McDavid Honda in Frisco.
All of their 2009's gone. They had the largest inventory of 2009 EXL in the metroplex.
car price w/DS/lojack/bluetooth: 29000
tax at 9.25 and plus 418 registration
That was the best deal i got offered from 6 diff dealers in Los angeles.
I just got an offer for $28,295 + ttl for a 2010 Pilot EX AWD. My wife and I are arguing over getting an EX or EX-L (she doesn't like leather, but I'd like the sunroof and backup camera, especially on something this big), and I was thinking of seeing if I could get the 2009 EX-L down to the same price...
My question is about the TCO that Edmunds calculates. They're listing the 2010 EX as having a higher TCO than the 2009 EX-L, but the 2009 EX has a lower TCO than the EX-L (and the 2010 EX). Any ideas of why the TCO for a 2010 EX would be higher than a 2009? Is it the way that they've factored in depreciation? Which way would you go?

Shopped all Atlanta dealers by OTD price since the doc fees can vary greatly and one dealers low price before doc fees and TTL can become quite high after fees.
Inventory was getting very low on 09's and only 2 dealers out of about 12 had the sterling grey that I wanted in a EX-L.
Only accessory I wanted was the cargo liner (not tray) which my dealer had never even heard of. Ended up paying $50 more for this which is included in the below price.
OTD price = $31049.80
Sale price w/ destination = $28673.45
Dealer doc fee = $599.00
6% tax = 1756.35
Registration = $21.00
I came in with a capitol one finance check at 4.3% for 60 mos and the dealer beat that at 3.99 for 60 months.
I am in Toronto Canada and made a deal for a 2009 Honda Pilot in Rochester area but this delership told me that Honda-US has told all US delership not to sell to Canadian customers.(so I was not able to buy the Pilot)
Does anybody know a US Honda dealership which will sell to Canadian customers.
Thanks

If you change the mind to TOYOTA ... here is a dealer very much like to sell to Canadians. Toyota will honor warranty on US imported into Canada.

This is link related to Honda/Acura... Honda will NOT honor warranty on US imported into Canada.

Local dealer doesn't have this in stock and offered me a 09 Touring demo with 6,700 mi. for $32K.
Good price? He said they can't lease it b/c of miles. Thoughts?
32k is OK price as new one is around 33k, the took off 1k for the 6,700 mi, that is 0.15/mi.

2010 Honda Pilot Touring 2WD NAVI DVD
$36,331.37
$666.75 license and $55 document fee
$3001.88 TAX
$40,000 OTD
The tax is for LA county (that's what I presume as I told the dealer I live in LA county). Please let me know if this a good price or how much further negotiations should be done?
Any prompt response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
The price was 28,500 for the one w/0 bluetooth and 300 more for the one with it. The email below is talking about the Black one that did not have the Bluetooth. Over the phone he said 28,800 for the one with it.
Regardless, 29k is still not bad pricing. Especially if you got a color you wanted. Had I not found the little BMW at what I thought was an amazing price, I was planning on going back to buy that Sterling Grey w/ bluetooth and lojack. I figure $500 buck for a color you will be happy with is well worth it, and $500 bux for the lo-jack and bluetooth isnt bad either. Add that to the lowest price I have found in LA area of 28,000, $29,000 is very competitive.
Best of luck.

Hi Henry,
Thanks for the opportunity. You've gotten so awesome prices!!! I had to go to my General Manager for this one.
This is what we will do $28,500 w/ lojack for the black one w/ gray leather.
If you want the sterling gray....it will be more because of the bluetooth.
Let me know if that will work???

I have 3 quotes for $31K for the EX-L (in the Seattle metro...doesn't include tax, license or dealer options)...per conversations here, it seems I should be able to get much lower, but I am a squeamish negotiator, particularly since the quote is already below invoice. I don't want to overpay, but also want to be fair as they should make some profit.
Any advice? Thnx!
I am talking to Jerry now and see if he can work something out. Thou I am sure he won't be able to do anything. But like you said, it's still a good deal. I am just disappointed that he can even match his own deal.
Thanks again for replying and enjoy your new ride.
I'm in SW Pennsylvania and I'm looking for a Black or White 2009 EX-L "4WD" with RES. If I can get one below $30K with around 3% APR or less financing on a 60-month loan and no fees other than TT&L, I'll buy tomorrow.
this is for 2009 honda pilot 4WD +RES (30500+tax+tag+processing fee)
14201 jefferson davies highway
hendrick honda woodbridge va
good luck
2010 Pilot Touring 2WD with RES and NAV
Price with premium running boards with lights and cross bars installed = $36,398
Tax, tag and dealer fees $624 for a total of $37,022 OTD
You tax is also pretty low. California tax is a killer now!!
In my opinion, you should go for this deal.
Enjoy!!
Yes - SC sales tax is capped at $300; however, we do get hit each year on the autos with property taxes.
Thanks and good luck!
'09 EX-L 4WD with RES, $33,583 OTD, TMV pricing $34,330, INV $34,085
'10 EX-L 4WD no RES, $33,313 OTD, TMV pricing $ 35,578, INV $32,814
I really don't need the RES. I usually keep my vehicles about 7-8 years so I don't think it would make much of a difference on resale by then. Both deals look good against the TMV but not so good against some of the deals I've seen discussed here, especially from Hendrick Honda in VA. I think I also read here recently that to make an '09 deal stack up against a '10, I'd really need to pull about another $4000 off of the $33,583 quote I have, for the first year's depreciation, meaning $ 29,583 for the '09. MO doesn't charge sales tax but when I register the car I'd have state and city taxes equal to 5.475% of the purchase price.
So what do you think? Try to work the '09 deal or just focus on getting a better deal on a '10? Assume this would happen before the current incentives expire.
Thanks.
I have an offer on the table for a 09 4wd Touring (RES, NAV, Running Boards)
32K OTD 35,100. Its a Demo with 6,800 miles.
I'm starting to lean towards a new 10 4wd EX-L w/ RES, Running Boards and after market bluetooth
Best quote for this has been 35,200 OTD 38,350
I haven't worked the 2010 Ex-L price down yet, however, so I think this is still a bit high.
I am leaning towards the 2010 car for the simple fact that the trade-in value in 4-5 years will be higher.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
I started out wanting an 09 2WD EX-L. I started getting quotes and pretty soon had some offers and constant communications with dealers. I was specific on color combination so it was a pretty hard match. As it went on, I started thinking well, what if I compromise on it and maybe pay extra for 4WD EX-L or maybe 4WD EX-L with RES, etc etc. After a few days I thought about it hard and I came to the decision that I do not want to spend the extra on 4WD or RES just to get the color or the 09s I want. If I can't get what I wanted, I say to myself, I am not willing to pay more for something that I don't need for a specific year model. I rather not buy. Plus it sure makes it confusing for myself without the dealers help. Hahaha... Compare apples to apples. Your situation may be different.
Best 09 2WD EX-L was $29,000.00 + doc fee + TTL but not the color I wanted.
Best 10 2WD EX-L $30,000.00 + doc fee + TTL
If I waited it out, I may have been able to get the 09s at $28,000.00. However, with what I can compare with the 2010, even at $28,000.00 (if I get it) for the 09s is only a $2k difference. I went with the 2010. I feel that the 09s and 10s price difference have to be larger to make it worth getting the 09s.
Hope it helps.
I'm not sure what to say about the 2010 EXL w/ Res as I haven't considered one yet. There are a few features on the Touring that I would really like to get, I just don't want to pay too much more for them. Given the 09 and 10 are almost identical, I'm good with going with a better deal on a 09, regardless of the extra year. After all, that's the whole reason you are getting the better deal (in addition to the demo miles).
Good luck with your decision!
Got a quote in Waterloo, IA for '09 EX-L 4WD with RES @32,292 +TTL and there are two on the lot: Blue/Gray interior and Silver/Gray interior. According to Truecar.com that's a great price for our region. Really nice guy I spoke with - email me if you want his contact. In IA, EX-L 4WD w/o RES are about impossible to find, but Chicago area has quite a few yet.
I bought a 2010 4WD Touring with NAV and RES for about 36900 plus tax in the Boston area. I went to a few dealers in the area and there were not a lot of Touring models in stock. A few dealers did not have them at all.
I think I could have done better but oh well.

Anyway, do you think it is fair for me to ask them to honor the OTD price of $35,1000 that we had "settled" on for the demo, instead now for a 2010 EXL w/RES and added bluetooth and running boards? Or should I just take my business to the 10 other Honda dealerships in the city in which I live? I am very upset with this dealership, and feel that they are going to have to give me something outstanding in terms of a deal to get my business (not that my business is anything special....)
Just hang on for a few days. No hurry. It is likely they will call you back and ask if you are still interested in a Honda Pilot. If you feel that the prices you want to offer is satisfactory to you and fair, go ahead and say, I'll buy X if you sell it for $Y. If they refuse, you have nothing to lose, just walk away and start looking elsewhere. Or better yet, take $Y then and ask someone else to beat it. Always be prepared to walk away.
