Replying to: markandhills (May 06, 2008 10:06 am) Invoice is well known you can find it a number of places, the dealer incentives are shown here. Hold back should be 2% of MSRP. If you take invoice less incentive that should be a nice price, if you can get into the hold back a bit even better. I would just be up front with them, tell them you know invoice and incentive amounts and know the 09 Pilot is on the way and you would take one of the old Pilots off their hands if they are willing to make you the right price. My local dealers would not come close to the deal I got on our Pilot by driving 3 1/2 hours each way. Not even close - we are talking $1,200 or so IIRC. I have leased cars from all over, WI, CT, KY, GA, etc - going where the deal is. I have used a car hauler to bring them in or done the fly out drive back or driven both ways - as long as the deal was right on the right car it was no problem. If you want to fly and do a long drive home, I am sure I can find you a deal in Louisville or Atlanta areas. Might not be worth the plane fare and gas, though. There are several low price dealers in Chicago, but you also have to watch for tricks. They get someone in from out of state and then remember to add the destination charge or the dealer fee on top of the price you were quoted. I can vouch for dealers elsewhere I can recommend, but if you do something like this in Chicago get several deals with several area dealers and if the best one does try something just leave and go to the next dealer until you get what you want for the right price.

Replying to: dwynne (May 06, 2008 1:40 pm) I may also look in the Atlanta area as we have family in SC and could perhaps combine things into a family trip.

Dennis, we are looking for the basic EX-L, no Nav. or RES. Just as you predicted, all of the Chicagoland quotes did not include dest. or doc. I requested that one provide dest. and doc and they completely ignored me -- I love these guys!

Replying to: markandhills (May 06, 2008 2:24 pm)  . Gee compared to my wife's VP that is pretty basic indeed. Do you want 4WD or 2WD and are you planning on paying "cash" (or other loan) or doing the cheap money financing (the price would like be $1k higher if you do a cheap loan) ? Dennis

Replying to: dwynne (May 06, 2008 5:16 pm) 4WD is a must for us and we will not be taking advantage of the financing special. Thanks for your help! |
