first time you post 29170 as OTD. I thought it is very good deal. but Now you told me it is just price for car. Then plus tax and fee. So totally you pay 29170*(1+8.625%)+Fee, that is a lot. Now I only condise 28000 for EX AWD is good price. Anyone get email or call from commonwealth Honda. they claim they will have big rebate on pilot. I wonder how is that.

Well, you are absolutely right regarding the fact that the 08 EXL would bring more features (leather, sunroof and RES) for 2.5k less, I tough about it.... but down the road in let's say 3 or 5 years if I decided to sell the car ...I believe that the new generation EX would perform better on resale value than the previous version.... just my opinion
 
So far I have put 300 miles on the pilot and can't complain with the way it drives
 
We have compared the car on the road back to back with the previous generation and I don't regret the decision.
 
To mitigate the lack of RES I installed a 11" jensen overhead DVD with 2 wireless headphones) ... got it from circuit city ... they have a especial $599 with free installation.
 
The kids are happy.. the wife is happy..therefore I'm happy

sunnyfl1- well said (kids are happy, wife is happy therefore...) I was looking for an alternative solution to the RES, thanks for solving my problem and saving me some $$
 
I'm still considering a few proposals for leasing the 09 EX-L and the dealers are pushing to get it closed by 1/5 which is fine by me. I'm just curious what will change after the 5th.
 
I'll post my proposals tomorrow.

I suggest you get your hands on a copy of GALVES. This is the pricing book that most dealers use, and most consumers do not know about.

If there's no "dealer fee" added to the 30K then it's a better price than the quotes I've received in Tampa.
 
I'm waiting for the January incentives to come out. Sounds like they are low balling the trade in, but look at blue book, not Edmunds.

Would you mind telling us if your Bali Blue Touring was 4WD?
 The salesman I am dealing with will not come close to that price with
4wd so if you did buy it with 4WD you really got a sweet deal.
 
 Also the Honda salesmanager told me that new marketing programs will
be released this Wednesday 1/7/09 so we'll see what Honda will offer if anything.

Does anyone know if the money factor for leasing will continue through the end of January .011 (36 month)?
 
Anyone hear of any more incentives after today 1/5? or do think today will be as good as it gets.

Think Honda will throw in bigger discount on 09 Pilot by bigdadi118

Toyota, Honda lead declines in Dec. auto sales
From Yahoo news:
  
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090105/ap_on_bi_ge/auto_sales
  
"DETROIT – Toyota and Honda's U.S. sales fell more than their U.S. competitors' in December, with Toyota's 37 percent decline and Honda's 35 percent drop showing the Japanese company's popular fuel-efficient models were little help as consumers steered clear of showrooms due to the dismal economy."
  
And later in the article:
  
"Honda sold 86,085 vehicles last month, down from 131,792 a year earlier but up from 76,233 in November. The month-over-month improvement was a trend seen by most automakers."

Thanks for the info. HMMM- Decisions. I was ready to pull the trigger today...since the lease factor is so good. I'm concerned that they might change it.

"The month-over-month improvement was a trend seen by most automakers."
 
Since sales vary dramatically by month, the month-to-month trend is meaningless.
 
The 35% decline was year over year for December. That is even worse than the 30.6% decline seen in November and shows that sales are getting worse.
 
You'd have to be crazy (or have money to burn) to not hold out for better incentives than they had in December. If there aren't cars sitting on dealer lots, they are in someone's parking lot losing value.
