09 AWD Pilot Touring NAV + RES, OTD $36,700 by leadfoottva

Price includes new vehicle, their appearance package (mud guards, door edge guards, wheel locks, floor mats...), tax, title, everything, but doesn't take into account whatever finance rate they plan to offer me. I'll know in a couple days, after I get out there, but I'm not holding my breath for anything below 3.9%.
 
I agree with above poster that these incentives look an awful lot like non-incentives. Price of gas is creeping up in Northern VA where I live...am I making a mistake buying this SUV?

"Sounds to me all you did was waste not only your time but some salesmans time. If you're not buying for a few months why bother trying to make a dealer "squirm" if you're that far removed from the purchase? "
 
Not really. I test drove the Pilot and Odyssey which helped me decide the vehicle for me and he gave me a competitive price I think.
 
"I would have walked you to the door long before you felt pressure."
 
And I would have gladly drove to one of the twenty other Honda dealers in Southern California
 
"Too bad for the salesman who's time was wasted on you didn't do more to put the "pressure" on. He probably could have saved an hour or two with you, trying to find someone who was there to help him make a living."
 
So the poor salesman could try and find a less educated buyer to try and squeeze every last penny out of? When a guy tries to charge me $6500 more than a fair price my sympathy quickly runs dry.
 
Thanks for the life lesson... Guy on the internet personally offended over how I choose to purchase a car.

2009 EX AWD by integradriver

MSRP (incl dest) $32665
 
Dealer #1 (single price store) $29999 on January 3, $28925 on January 9 after the dealer cash was announced. Tax and tags extra, dealer doc fee was $250 or so.
 
Dealer #2 "We don't have any EX, only an EXL with a dead battery in the showroom. I can get you a full line brochure, I don't have any on the Pilot. I could probably get you close to the invoice, give me a call."
 
Dealer #3 worked price down to $27925, including chrome step boards at $742 and VIN Etching in the frame at $279. Dealer Doc Fee of $300 plus tax and tags.
 
Dealer #4 Said that the $27925 was a pretty deep discount, but he didn't have any options on his vehicle, and if I'd buy the in stock Dark Cherry Pearl, he'd match it. $75 doc fee, plus tax and tags. I added on black step boards for $509.
 
Offered me $500 for what was left of my 2003 Kia Sedona EX (120K mi. Needs front brakes and wheel bearings. CD player and sunroof non operational. Mold growing in the rear passenger cargo well (don't ask.) Most of the passenger armrests are missing as well. Or if I bought the $395 paint and interior protection, he'd give me $1000 for the Kia. I suppose I could have tried to get the $1000 without buying the package, but basically he was giving it to me and an extra hundred so why not?
 
So the Kia is in his shop now (since it started raining and the sunroof opened but won't close) and the Pilot is T-tagged in our driveway.

You have to ask for it. On Thursday January 8 when I went into one of the dealerships I posted about, they started me off at the normal invoice until I mentioned the $1500 manufacturer to dealer incentive that I'd seen posted on that Edmunds site. The salesman went to check on it and said it was 'dealer cash' that they could do with as they saw fit, and he offered me $1000 of it before I ultimately got him to give it all to me and then some.
 
He had some other costs built into his contract though, that were factors in me choosing another dealer.

I was wondering if this was a good deal? This is with the 1500 incentive and that's including TTL. This comes with no RES but with NAVI.
 
Price before TTL is $33,668.
 
Please advise. I am in Orange County CA
 
Thanks
