I live in NYC. Where is your price from? I think that is a fair deal in NYC area.
All I can get in NYC is 1000 off msrp only.
Could you share the dealer's name?
Thanks
Our Odyssey with FWD has excellent traction and on trips gets 28MPG.
Honda may have lost a sale on this goof.
Seems you are not sure what you buy a front wheel drive or rear?
Just kiding! Congrat!

There is no reason technical or otherwise, because it's not RWD. Curious as to where you got that idea - ?
But the problem is that two week later the price may be drop.
Also, does anyone know what the dealer invoice is on this vehicle? I was told $32,408 but am not sure that is correct.
I priced the '06 Pilot EX-L with Nav and EX Sport Package and here's the first price out of the shoot. Car: $33,900 not including TTL and $1,495 for sport package upgrade ( running boards, cross bars on roof rack and front grill enhancement).
Please give me some guidance as to what you think would be a good offer to make a good deal. I live on Long Island, New York.
Thanks,
Amos
I am going tomorrow to sign and if they honor the price I was given of $32,700 plus tax and title/tags....I will get you the info. What dealer did you get your price from? I approached about 7 or 8 different dealers thus far.
How you do today? Got the price of $32,700 including destination charge plus tax and title/tags for the 2006 Pilot EX-LN AWD?
Did you get other option such as running board? Let us know the prices of any options you took.
I will get it this week the same exact car. My dealer in Maryland quotes $33,357. I will use your number to negotiate.
Thanks

I was quoted 33,900 for the car and 1,975 for the sport package (running boards, roof rac cross bars and special front grill) excluding TTL. What were you quoted from the start?
Amos
I stopped by South Shore Honda in Valley Stream. I am going to check out what I can do at P.S. Honda in Manhasset.
Let me know if they honor the deal.

I was quoted $33,357 for EX-L with NAV. I have not checked the sport package or other options. I used the internet service from cars.com and edmund but only one dealer that is far away from where I live (Washington DC metro area) comes back with a quote. The other five dealers locally gave me a bogus number to "hook" me in their dealer. What is a disappointment. I am going to use Costco auto service on the internet. Hope I will have a better luck.

Not really sure if that is good or not. I live in Nassau County Long Island and have not been able to find am dealer to quote me a price. In the past the best deals in pricing is in Suffolk County (Patchogue) Baron Honda. The number is 631-475-8400 and ask for Dominick in sales. Tell him that Jim Gillette sent you. I have bought 4 Hondas from him in the past and sent him numerous people. He gives you the lowest possible price that he can give you up front. In other words he doesn't start high and come down. He start at the lowest.........
What dealer did you get a quote from?
Best of luck.

I picked up a 2006 EXL-NAV 4WD from Sport Honda in Silver Spring, MD last weekend for $32,900 plus tax and tags. I dealt with Internet Sales, initially by e-mail. They were responsive, helpful, and easy to deal with. It was a very pleasant and pressure-free buying experience. Feel free to e-mail me if you want details. I also know a couple other MD dealers who offer competitive prices.
2WD EXL $28,652
2WD EXL RES $30,089
4WD EXL $29,730
4WD EXL RES $31,168
I believe that these do not include the $550 destination charges. I have negotiated $1000 over invoice but I am sure I can do better. Have not committed to this deal yet. Last year near the end of the year I was getting emails from dealer offering me $100-$200 dollars over invoice.
I do not like SUVs but my wife refuses to drive a van and this is the only type of car the is best suited for us. I have done lots and lots of research on mid-size SUV and the Pilot kept coming up as number one in every category you can imagine, particularly safety/comfort/usability as my first set of priorities. Granted, it is not the most attractive car but its the safest and most versatile. I have even interviewed in the parking lots if I saw them get out of one. My bro-in-law has a 2003 which he adores.
Good luck.....
06 Pilot EX-L with NAV has the same invoice price as the one with RES (rear entertainment system). The Inv is $31,168 plus $550 destination. This brings your price to $687 over invoice which is not bad at all. I tried to price your options but I cound not find a price for grill enhancement or cross bar, but its seems that the price of the options is based on the MSRP. If you add the MSRP profit of the dealer on the package, I guess it may add up to close to $900 - $1000 over invoice which is still ok. There is always room for negotiation though.
Thanks. Look like you got a good deal. Could you clarify if the price of EX-L with NAV including destination charge of $550? My only comes from one local dealer was $33.357 without destination charge. This is $1650 over invoice price.
Could advise the point of contact at Sport Honda? I have been sent sale pitch email by the following local dealer without any quote or response to my questions/clarification, Herson, Ourisman, Bowie, Criswell.
Thanks

Can any one tell me if it has bluetooth - i hope so!!!! :confuse:
Destination: $ 550.00
Costco Markup $ 750.00
Total = $31,030.00
Title $ 175.75
Tax $ 2,879.15
Doc Fee 35.00
Out-The-Door = $34,119.90
I could've probably gotten it for less by shopping around Western and maybe even Eastern Washington. But the money I might've saved wasn't worth the time and effort. I hit the Costco Website, got the price over the phone, and was done that day. Had a great salesman, too.
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you ... my browser was shot and did not let me get into any secure sites.
Ok, Here is where I am in the old Honda Negotiation Game. I have a deal on the table for $32,859 ( EX-L with Navi) inclusive of Destination and the upshot is that with tax (8.65%) Title I will be at $35,625 +/- Gross. It seems that these dealers are going to make upwards of $650 on the car .... being that this is fresh into the new model that may be the way it is until things cool down a bit. I ordered the Steel Blue Metallic but as I sitting here perhaps I should have chosen the Sage brush pearl. Of course the biggest game now is for the dealers to scramble to find the colors. My guy tells me it may have to be towed or transported from another dealer out of state.
For those keeping tack of pricing: I went to three dealers and the prices I got were: $33,900, $33,300 and the $32,859. I know the guys very well at the lowest price and have purchased four cars from them before. We'll see.
On a side note, I am hearing of an after market process to install a cradle for Ipod's which entails having the radio unit pulled out and attaching the wires in the back ... you can have it done at Best Buy or perhaps a dealer and supposedly it does not voidany warranties -- Anyone else here of this?
Thank you all for your help and feedback ... with any luck I hope to have the car by next week. Oh, on financing -- Honda is offering 5.9% which is ok. I was able to beat it through my credit union so I would urge all of you to look around first.
Amos
Did they honor the deal? Where did you go to get the pice? Any funny business when you got there?
Amos
One last point on the extras ... I was looking into the sports package $1,979 .. In my opinion not worth it. I opted instead to purchase separately: Cross Bars for Roof Rack, Cargo Tray and Cargo Cover (Prices on the internet cheaper than at Honda site) but total for all three: $325.89

I remember hearing that Honda will have such a device (actually just connection cables), where the iPod is connected and located in the glove box. Unfortunately, the retail price of this was cited at $250! (Come on, Honda, give us a break). At that price, for a savings of $200 you can get a cig socket power cord and fm transmitter. True, the sound quality of fm will be less than hard wired, but for a $200 savings.....? With the 6-CD changer, and *if* it also plays MP3 disks (which may get more songs, if I remember correctly), there is that factor which delivers extended tune time. Moreover, think 1 years down the line. Who knows what sort of iPod or iPod connections will be available then, and the extent to which it can easily be connected. In any event, Honda's product was scheduled to be available sometime around december. I don't know if the Best Buy after-market device is available for Honda's Pilot. I suspect there will more after-market device developed, too, Best of luck finding your item, as regardless, I respect your role as an "early adopter" of technology.
