well we pick her up today. just in time for the snowstorm tomorrow. lol...
they lowballed the wholesale price on my trade in . a 2002 good condition oddy. low miles.
i looked at him and said " i will walk out this door and email every dealer in the tri state area. for their best price. i know for a fact that you all have a ton of inventory and cant move the pilots. "
he dissapeared and reappeared with the mgr. who then went up 1200 on my trade in.. AMAZING!
 
they arent charging us for any prep fees.
 
bit dissapointed by the runaround by route 23 honda. and i told them that. point blank. just as my 2 year old screamed... "i wann drive a honda" "i wann drive a honda"

I wanted to share my information. I went to Russell Smith Honda. Great place and great sales person named Peter.
  
2009 EX-L w RES (Sterling Gray and Black leather interior)
 
Selling price: 32143
Free Tint
Mainly negotiated my 2006 Nissan Altima SE trade to a price as much as KBB. Most dealers were quoting $2000 less than KBB.
 
After negotiating, I told them I wanted to lease than buy.
36 month lease with 12000 miles per year. Excess mile at 0.15 cents per mile.
Residual was 47%
Money Factor: 0.00110 (Super Preferred Tier)
Free Oil Change for 3 years
Free Windshield Insurance for three years
Additional discount of $280 was thrown in at last minute.
Zero down and no security deposit.
$560 for 36 months. $20074 total payments for 36 months. $16856 option to buy.
 
Any comments welcome. I cant change the deal but maybe it can be of help to others.

Thanks for your reply bigdadi118
 
My payments are 557.62 per month for 36 months.
 
The difference is $79.1 per month more than your calculation. It amounts to $2847.6 for 36 months.
 
But I had $996.00 negative equity from trade in and $2008.93 as tax (6.25%) included in the monthly payments. That leaves with a discount of $157.

Your tax calculation is full sale price of car.
 
Depending on which state, in my state on auto leasing we only pay the tax percentage of the monthly amount.
 
Example : 450 x 6.25% = 28.125, monthly payment incl tax = 478.13

Good evening everyone! I thought I'd let everyone know in the Northern CA area that I have received what feels like a good deal on a Bali Blue/Gray interior Pilot. Originally worked thru Costco Program but found better prices without it. Quoted is $35,220 + tax/license. Picking up on Saturday.

Boston Pilot 2009 EXL by cdolan59
Jan 02, 2009 (12:16 am)

I was reading on the Edmunds site about Gas Mileage. It indicated that the the pilot 2009 2wd averaged 19.3 miles per gallon and that the 4wd averaged 14.4. Honda only advertises a 1 mile per gallon difference between 2 and 4wd. I live in Boston and rarely turn on my 4wd, maybe 1-2 times per year. Does anyone have any information regarding a 5 mile per gallon difference in mileage?

Re: Change mind on 08 EX-L and got an 09 EX :p [sunnyfl1] by sncmagee

Thought I'd throw my 2 cents in, being an 08 EX-L owner for about 12 months now, and love the vehicle. I'm also a big fan of Consumer Reports, and they rate the 08 Pilot higher than the 09 on a nbr of points I won't go into here.
 
For those that might come upon a similar scenario, I for one would be careful about selecting an 09 EX (which seems to have come with fewer features such as 4wd, leather, RES, etc?) at a price $2.5K higher than the 08? Maybe I'm missing something?
