Just wondering if anybody found a great deal in Mass. for a 2012 EX-L 4wd? Best we found is $33,200 before TT&R but then getting low-ball for the trade.
Thanks!
I am location flexible as I know I can ship the car (if net price is best).
Please advise on best recent deals + recent Honda dealer incentive programs.
Thanks much!
If you're open to the idea of purchasing in Dallas/Fort Worth, you might take a look at some of my previous posts. We purchased a 2011 Pilot last spring. I tried to give a reasonably detailed rundown of my experiences at that time with various Honda dealerships in the DFW area. Of course, it's somewhat dated information now; so I don't know how helpful it would be. Just a thought as you continue your research...
Thanks
I'm new to this forum and would like to get some feedback on a offer. I'm in the market to purchase a new 2012 Pilot 4WD EX-L Polished Metal with Gray Leather.
In short after negotiating with 8 dealerships in the Valley, I got the best offer from Right Honda at $37,300 out the door.
I would like to know if this is a good deal and if not, how low can I go with the OTD price?
Thank you everyone who responds. I appreciate the feedback.
I have mentioned $750.00 the incentive from Honda if we finance with Honda. They are telling me all has been considered and this is the best they could do.
Looking at all the posts, it looks like I have much better pricing if I buy from other state. How much more I need to spend when I bring the car from another state to Minnesota. Is it worth it?
Is there anybody in TwinCities, MN area looking to find the best deal?
I would appreciate some feedback on this. Please don't ignore give me some expert advice. This would be my first brand new vehicle in my 15 years driving vehicle, so I am really novice how to deal with dealers while purchasing new car. I have tried to negotiate to one dealer by mentioning another dealer quote, but looks like I am stuck at 36880.00.
Please advice.
Looks like you've got yourself a good deal. I just bought a 2012 honda pilot ex-l for $ 34.5 K ( No nav or DVD). What dealer quoted you this 34 K price ? All dealers in MSP are more or less difficult to negotiate with.

Yes, there is not much flexibility for negotiation in twin cities. Just to let you know that 34K is just the base price without tax, license and registration.
I actually got this price (+100) from # of dealers. Burkle, Richfield, Inver Grove.
Walser is one price and they quoted me 34,900. It was very tough with Richfield and they came down to 34,200.
Thanks for reassuring me that this is a good price in twincities.
Also keep in mind that the difference between 2WD and 4WD is $1500. I must have 4WD in Minnesota. I have called # of dealers in the south like Texas and all of them has little or no 4WD. It is interesting to hear the quote from the dealers of texas of 2wd which is lot more cheaper than 1500 vs the quote for 4WD. Simply because they don't get 4WD much.
Give me the contact for the Louisiana dealer please.
EX-L with Navi only for 35902 seems expensive. The Navi cost about 400. I am sure you have RES with it as well.
EXL with/NAV: $34,567
Dest charge: $810
Dealer add: $525
==================
$35,902
Regardless, let us know how dealing with RBH on the refund works out - it will be a good test on customer service. I too am looking for Pilot in TC area, considering all options thus far...
2012 pilot exl awd invoice 32759
2012 pilot exl awd navi invoice 34567
So there is 1808 diff in the invoice price itself (not just 400)
Add 325 markup + 810 dest fee and that is what rbh agreed to, so for
2012 exl awd the figure will be 33894
$37,695 before TTL
They threw in the cross bars for the roof rack ($200 value)
Trade-in of 2009 AWD Toyota Sienna Limited with 39,272 miles.
$25,000 (was almost exactly the midpoint between KBB and Edmunds trade-in value)
Do anyone know what is the comparable incentive for December? Would it be more or less than the $750 from November?
Thx in advance!
So far we love it!
36K+810+TTL and also 2*250 certificates towards down payment. Isn't that awesome ....
Thanks
Yes I just blocked signed the PO. They initially promised Nov 12 deliver which extended to Nov 22 and finally got on Dec 1st. The 2*250 was negotiated during thanksgiving. The weekend of thanksgiving they were giving 1-3 certificates to everyone who were buying Honda's and so I requested and they agreed to give me when I came in for picking up the Car. I hardly doubt if they would honor that anymore but you can give it a try in case you are still looking for Pilot's. I bet you wont be disappointed. :P
Thanks for getting back to me. Now, it makes more sense. The internet manager told me he is getting 7 Tourings in for the rest of 2011. All the Tourings are reserved except for 2 (that was last week). I reserved mine on the 15th of Nov and built date was last week. Should be in by next weekend (I hope so).
As for the certificates, Honda is still providing them if you lease or take out a 3 yrs loan with 0.9% with Honda Financial Services. BUT it is up to the dealership if they want to give you the certificates.
Good Luck with your Pilot.
I am curious about these certificates from Honda Financial Services. I'm planning to buy a Pilot (now, December 2011) and I'd be glad to do the 0.9% x 3 Yrs loan if it means 2-3 certificates worth $250/ea! Where do you find official information about those? Is it regional? I'm in the North/South Carolina area, didn't know if that was just a Northeast thing...
Thanks!
Was that for a 2WD or 4WD?
Thanks!
