I submitted a bid for an 09 Touring with NAV and RES at Wilde Honda
for 6500 dollars off of MSRP. The salesman expalined that the $2000 rebate was over however the dealer wanted to know the specifics of my trade in order to offer
something close in my estimation. I am waiting to hear from them sometime today
or on Monday and I'll let you know.

My advice: If you can wait a couple of months the incentives should come back. The is a reason: SUV sales are not as brisky as they wished they were and over the last two years Honda has been offeing them. Besides the economy is not that great.

SUV incentives back? by pilotsearcher

In speaking with an Acura/Honda dealership owner, he felt the incentives will NOT get better due to tighter credit.
 
Anyone else hear this?

You know SUV sales are really hurting when Honda is advertising the AMAZING 23MPG of the Pilot. (That's one less MPG's than alot of the Fords/Chevys/GMC's/Dodges). It's bad when Honda has to pull out the "yeah we know it's only slightly worse than the American SUV's on fuel economy" advertising strategy. I agree...wait it out, someone has to start panicking soon. Honda sales were down 24% in September and if their marketing strategy is any indication of the future, October may not be looking any better.

Re-emerging Incentives by poodog13

I couldn't disagree more with the rationales listed for the liklihood of increasing / re-emerging incentives.
 
SUV sales are down. So is SUV production. The purpose of incentives is to move excess inventory or to maintain minimum production levels. I haven't been able to find anything on Pilot inventories, but before you ASSUME that incentives will come back, you had better have some idea of inventory trends. Otherwise, all you are doing is waiting for the sake of waiting.
 
Also, the effect of credit-tightening on incentives is unknown. On one hand, it makes AHFC's cost of credit higher, meaning that it is harder for them to offer special finance rates. On the other hand, it reduces sales because people can't get bank loans, increasing inventory. The big winner might be the cash buyer, or at least those with a large downpayment who can then easily qualify for a smaller loan and get a great deal in the process.

My local Honda dealer in Queens NY has a New 2005 Pilot EX-L w/Nav. Considering it's year and that it's new, what should I offer them for it? I think it's list is just over $34k
Thanks.

I think your dealer is trying to scare you into purchasing a vehicle NOW.
 
No dealer knows for certain what incentives will be available. If you really do not need a vehicle at this time I suggest you WAIT. These next few months are the most difficult time for the auto market. With many people concentrating on the Holiday season, sales are down. If the dismal September sales are any indication of the downward trend,October,and November should follow the same pattern.
