I've found these forums helpful in researching my lease, so I'll post my results to help others get the best deal they can.
 
$247 per month (incl. tax 7.75%)
$2688 down (incl. dmv, title, 1st payment & doc fee)
$28265 MSRP (final gross cap cost is $23011)
$21016 cap cost (after reductions)
50% residual value ($14132)
.00110 money factor
36 months
12k miles / year
 
Let me know if this was a good deal or not, in So. California, or otherwise. I think the residual value is a little high, but the other details look good. How'd I do???

Thanks for the response. The tax in ny is 8.625%. The tax was 2343.41 The exact selling price was 29170. The final price after a few fees was 29380.91. I put 5k down plus a trade in for another 2k. Think the payments came out to around $466 for five years at 3.9%. After going to a few place think the best I could of got would have been maybe 100 to 200 more off the price but i was happy with my trade in amount for the car. This site has been a tremendous help in my negotiations. Thanks again.

Hi there. It is Paul Moak Honda in Jackson, MS. Actually I went to Patty Peck Honda (in Ridgeland MS, just few miles away from Paul Moak Honda) two weeks ago. We negotiated the price as $30595 plus $175 doc fee, but they give me a unacceptable price on my trade in (a nice 03 frontier with low mileage). So I sold my truck myself last Friday at a much better price ($1200 over the deal offered). I went to Paul Moak Honda, the final price of EXL-2WD I bought was $30406 (including destination charge). He initially want to charge $175 doc fee but after negotiating he took that off. I get two years financing with 1.9% APR. If you are a good negotiator I am sure you will save some additional $$. I can see right now the business is pretty bad and they want to make deal with you.
By the way, the sales person's name is Tim. If you want to come here, I suggest you buy the vehicle on Dec 31.
Good luck.

Bought 2009 Honda Pilot 2WD Touring w/ Nav and RES by nikbert

+ dealer options (almost mandatory in Houston area) of pro-pack (fabric prot, paint sealant etc), mud flaps, tint, cargo mat, wheel locks = Total 35350 + TTL
 
Felt like it coulda been lower - but then thats bargaining for you!
 
The scumbags at Honda Cars of Katy did a complete bait and switch routine with us with a low ball price to draw us in.
 
Ultimately we bought the car from Goodson Honda North, super nice salesman, usual irritating mgr. Visited twice to get the final price.
 
Haven't driven the car much, but enjoyed whatever little I drove. Stupid shifter keeps getting in the way though!
 
Thanks all here and hope this helps someone!

tjb2648, I am little bit confuse here. is the exact selling price 29170 include the 2343.41 tax? I could not get your number right, Or you just get approximately number here. I figura out the thing you pay is about 27100( for car) + 2343 (tax) + 110 (fee). is that right? Or totally you pay 29170 (for car) + 2343 (tax) +110 (fee). Please confirm your car is EX AWD. Thanks for your sharing.

I know this is late in the game, but we are buying an EXL AWD with Res in the next few days, since our other car had a chance encounter with another vehicle.
 
Is 33k good for the exl awd with res?

That is so amazing the experience you had with Honda cars of Katy, because I had the exact same thing happen to me. Me and my family also had a low ball deal at the Katy Honda dealer which all seemed great until we figured out just how the deal got there. By extending pay period from 5 years to 7... What a freaking Joke these people... I told them my payments needed to be around 420 a month for 5 years on an EX model. And that the price of the truck and the deal needed to be made possible by my terms or no deal... They tried so hard to get me to sign with the impression that I was getting what I had asked for. Good thing I had called them out after looking at the paperwork carefully.
 
Well, after a heated exchange of pure disqust, I left... 3 days later I had a great deal working at Goodson Honda in Houston. Even got in at a time where Honda had the 2000 rebate. Ended up with EX-L for an incredible offer with payments of 418 a month. Both of these deals was with a trade in. Goodson also gave me a much better trade in value on my car I had hoped for from an individual purchase type price.
 
So, do your homework on not just the car, but where you buy it from...
 
Congrads on your new Pilot!

Change mind on 08 EX-L and got an 09 EX :p by sunnyfl1
Dec 29, 2008 (9:08 pm)

Ok I feel compelled to share my experience since reading this forum helped me to make my decision.
 
Initially I was looking for an 08 EXL (sunroof / Leather and RES) and got the lowest price $25,421 + tax + tag and NO dealer fee on a Silver EXL Pompano Honda (45 min from Miami downtown) I already had quotes from Potamkim, Brickell and Braman.
 
Went in today(Pompano Honda) 6:PM and was helped by Laura (Really nice non-pushy person) she showed me the 08 EXL , however once I was there and compared side by side the 08 against the 09 and made up my mind.
 
The price for the 08 EXL was almost the same price as the 09 LX, but I decided to push it to the 09 EX......the main differences are the Wheels (ugly on the LX) plus the roof rack, the rear climate control, the interior is way bigger on the 09.
 
So here is my final deal:
 
2009 EX 2wd (Formal Black with gray interior) MSRP $31,165
Vehicle includ accessories, delivery installation charges $28,030
Tax + registration fees in NY (I'm from NY working on a project in FL) $2,681
Documentation stamp fee $112
Dealer fee was Waived
 
Total out of the door $ 30,823
 
I also got the Honda financing 3.9 for 60 Mos (monthly payment is $554)
 
I hope this info would be of value for somebody
 
Happy New Year

Leased a 2009 Honda Pilot 2WD Touring w/ Nav and RES by agillman

After lurking here for a long time, I finally pulled the trigger and thought I'd share my experience.
 
Had a very good experience with Honda World in Westminster, CA. Martha in internet sales was great to work with and very aggressive on price. I did a lot of research and shopping and she was extremely professional - no game playing, etc.
 
Here are the details on my 36 month lease:
 
MSRP: $39,065 (includes $670 destination)
Cap Cost: $33,822 + 595 acquisition fee (note: this includes a credit of $1,250 for lease cash available to dealers. Had I not leased, the car would have been $35,072)
Residual: 43% or $16,797.95 (15,000 miles per year)
Drive Offs: $980 (first month payment plus CA DMV fees and $45 doc fee)
Money Factor: .0011 (no mark up on national rate)
Monthly Payment: $545.76 plus tax
 
Love the car so far. The price was very competitive and they were very good with my trade in as well. In and out of the dealership in 2 hours.
 
Also, I bought an extended warranty to cover the excess mileage. The dealership matched the internet price I brought in, so I was happy with that as well.
