I got an OTD price for 2011 pilot LX 4wd, $29,000. the tax is 7%!
Don't know it is a good price or not?
any idea?
Anyone knows about the recall of this model?
thanks!
You coming back so based on your own assumptions, you should have said, all papers are signed, you agreed to the deal, the deal is done.
PS, I would consult with attorney since the deal was already done when then they called you.
I'm very happy with the price we got and look forward to enjoying our new Pilot.
The dealer threw in floor mats carpet & all weather and all weather cargo tray. Its not a bad deal for hawaii.

Because of the help and knowledge I gained from this forum, I was able to purchase a Dark Cherry with Black interior 2011 Pilot, EX-L 4x4 (no NAV or RES) for $32,200 before tt&l from Flow Honda in Winston-Salem. They made the process simple. I dealt with the sales manager and after the second trip to see them I was able to do the deal. The 0.9% financing also made it very attractive.
This is my second Pilot and I am very pleased. Thanks to everyone for their help!
Navi is hard to get.....Burns Honda have one in white but wouldn't get go under $35,900 and Hamilton Honda have one too.
Good luck
I am paying 490/mnth for a 2008 Ex-L lease with 20k mi per yr and expected to pay lower just by going to 12k miles per yr.
What price range would constitute a good deal ?
Dealer offers no haggle pricing. 37.3 msrp, 36.2 plus tax/fee's. Not that special but pricing is higher to keep 2011's moving and they only have one 2012....
Here's some feedback since we don't have a 2012 category yet.
Pros:
1. Grill - looks much better, losing the transformer grill is nice. This is personal opinion for sure
2. Sound proofing - they've added wheel well materials and I read better windshield. Driving, it's still louder than our 2004 mdx.
3. Inside - Dash is improved and radio/nav is much better (caught up)
4. Driving - drove like a suv, brakes felt better than mdx which makes me think they improved braking distance but this could be difference between 8 year old mdx and new pilot... Would love a review/test on this part.
5. Mileage. trip computer claims I was getting 18mpg driving the truck fairly hard. MDX shows less than 10 when driving in city so ...
6. Seats - Son driving in the 2nd row said the seats were more comfortable than our MDX.
Cons.
1. Tires - not sure about the Low resistance tires. Not a real con, just concern that this will impact stopping distance.
2. Look - while better, would like more refreshing look for this boxy truck.
3. Not much else to report.
So, going to wait for more to arrive and costs come down as there are only 1-2 at dealers right now.
The first time I saw the actual car I was buying was when I went to pick it up - there were 2 scratches and an overall mediocre detail job, so they spent 20 minutes to touch it up and clean it before I would sign for it. I was a bit disappointed that they used the valet key for the remote start instead of making another key for it, but I can buy another - I find it handy to keep in the car so I can move/use it anytime. My first impression was that the satellite radio reception was less that what I was getting with my magnetic roof top attenna I had on my old Pilot, and that was the hissing noise I would hear while driving. Other than that, I have my fingers crossed that I can get the same mileage I got from my last Pilot.
Any tips you could share for having that Pilot go for so long?

What kind of mileage are you getting so far on your Pilot? Just filled it this morning for the first time and I think I got around 20 mpg.
2001 Prelude Type SH, 2022 Highlander XLE AWD, 2022 Wrangler Sahara 4Xe, 2023 Toyota Tacoma SR 4WD
MSRP 37,080
Price paid; 31,000 + TTL
-no cost: premium running boards, cross bars, new front grill, cargo net, wheel locks.
This seems like the going rate right now as they clear house for 2012's
Unfortunately when I dropped off the car at the dealer for the accessories Honda says they don't have the wood trim anymore, although 6 dealers gave me price quotes on it the weekend before last when I was buying, and Honda still had it listed on their Honda build website today as available.
I contacted the Honda customer service number and they agreed they had screwed up, not the dealer, and they would try and fix the problem. Anybody else hear of Honda, not a dealer, screwing up on accessories and how did it get resolved?
I keep thinking if I should get 2011 or wait for the 2012 price drops a little. I love the new grill, better millage and power tailgate in EXL....but worrying if the price for 2012 never gets that close to the 2011.
I asked for price quotes through Edmunds, Consumer Reports, and truecar.com. When those came in I emailed the dealers back with a request for an OTD price with the options I wanted and my color choices. Also important to tell them the state you are in since Virginia and Maryland have different fees.
I got the other 3 to match Pohanka which had the lowest price, but in white.
I never met my salesman until I drove up to sign the paperwork
Would you please with me the name of the saleman and dealer where you got your car LA. It seems a great deal.
Thanks Mike

Seems like they are getting into the dealerships now with good numbers.
Any other fellow 2012 pilot shoppers outthere, please keep posting.
