Replying to: kellysim (Apr 23, 2009 11:16 pm) I haven't ever seen Honda hold MSRP on a non-hybrid vehicle in the last 20 years.   The Odyssey's were very Hot in 2000 - 2004, and a number of those models held MSRP, and the 2000 models even had ADM.   Production cuts will eventually balance supply and demand. My guess is when the '10 are released there will be additional incentives to move the 09's. 09' was a major re-design, since the 10's will only offer minor changes - they will probably fetch a $1,000 - $1,500 premium over the 09's.   Honda's automobile division, unlike other manufacturers is only one piece of a very diverse manufacturing company. I wouldn't expect them to fall as fast as the D3. Replies to this message: kellysim (Apr 25, 2009 6:46 pm)
#12762 of 13818 4WD Touring NAV w/ RES by h2dk Apr 24, 2009 (7:57 am)
I received a price quote via Costco.com from a local dealer   4WD Touring w/ RES $35,006 (he didn't have the color, but could get it)   I still have 2 more payments on my 06 Pilot lease, so I am planning on waiting until July to shop seriously. Other dealers have given me prices ranging from 35,500 to 38,000 for the same vehicle. One is offering to buy me out of my lease, I'll find out today what the offer will be. I had one tell me the bottom line price was 35,700 but he had to add his profit to that. I balked at that, but had my wife with me and she wouldn't allow me to "disagree" with him.

Replying to: golic (Apr 24, 2009 4:29 am) In PA the Odyssey never held MSRP. They might've tried it on with clients that were not too saavy (the "this model is so hot you can't even test drive it" routine, like Acura tried with the MDX). Maybe in 2000, before 9/11, in certain markets for a month they demanded MSRP. Not much after that. Not sure where you are from. Obviously what we are in now certainly isn't the 2000-2004 market. I doubt that they would try to hold MSRP on the '10s for even two weeks.   In addition, $1500 over the '09s will not be anywhere close to the MSRP on the '10s. $1500 over on the '09s would likely be well under invoice on the '10s. I don't think you'll see that much under invoice, but $500 over invoice 1-2 months after the '10s are out seems likely, especially if there is a $3000+ incentive on the '09s, which seems probable at this point.   I have the car and it's pretty good. I would advise anyone who is considering purchasing one to take into consideration that this car is not good in the city, and the gas mileage is not very good. It's a well built automobile, competent but not thrilling. There is a good washington post article about the '09 Pilot which is worth reading if you are considering this vehicle. I knew about these problems before purchasing, and you should too if you are going to purchase this truck.   Good luck to all.
#12764 of 13818 Price Quote on 09 Pilot by windknot Apr 26, 2009 (3:39 pm)
I visited my local dealer in Greenville, NC and the quote I got for a 2009 LX 4wd was $26,088. + tax, tags, and title. How does this quote sound to others? I have not seen the invoice yet.
#12765 of 13818 Price quote on 09 EX-L msrp 35965.00 by goofa Apr 26, 2009 (9:28 pm)
This was my first quote from a local Honda dealer on a 2009 Pilot AWD EX-L with a list of $35,965.00, I was quoted 31,039.00 + TTL. What say you? Replies to this message: bigdadi118 (Apr 27, 2009 4:48 am)

Replying to: goofa (Apr 26, 2009 9:28 pm) Too high ... you can lower to around 30,000.
#12767 of 13818 Pilot EX-L w/RES in NJ by gkaraban Apr 27, 2009 (11:33 am)
Checked online w/some local dealers and the best offer so far for an EX-L w/RES is $31,281 plus dest/hand, doc, titles, & taxes. I see there has been talk of '10 editions coming out and excess inventory in the market. Naturally, the dealer told me there are only a few EX-L's out there. Not sure if I should wait out for the '10's or make a lower offer. Any suggestions? I don't have to buy now but I sure would like to. The AC on our 2nd car just died.

Replying to: gkaraban (Apr 27, 2009 11:33 am) give them lower offer. you can do better. try paramus honda's internet dep. they will make a deal.2 weeks agao i picked up same model for 31740 in long island that includes dest and doc. i was working with someone in paramus honda. my dealer in long island beat their quote. which is better for me i didn't have to travel to get my pilot.the only thing i paid on top of that is $230 for plates/reg/title and plus tax. overall your number is still good. i am assuming its 4wd .
#12769 of 13818 09 Pilot EXL 4WD Michigan by blkpilot Apr 28, 2009 (3:26 pm)
I normally don't post but seeing that I read everyone's for tips and ideas it is only fair that I write my experience.   I got a 09' EXL Pilot 4WD for 30,000 base BUT we also picked up a 09' Civic Hybrid for 22,000 base - not sure if that matters or if we got a deal.   Someone else on here suggested group buys to save money - I totally agree. At the end of the day, the same dollar can either stay in your pocket or the dealerships- not sure about you but I prefer it stays in mine. My salesman was pretty cool and I would recommend him
#12770 of 13818 EX-L Lease Deal by rjarvis Apr 28, 2009 (4:26 pm)
Got the following deal offered in Tampa FL   2009 EX-L Base   MSRP 34,265 Sales 30,200 Down 1,000 Residual 48% MF .00151 36 months 12K miles Payment $432 pre tax   Not too keen on the down over 1st payment but might be applying to TTL etc. What is the current Dealer Cost (profit) on these leases?   I have been working with the on-line lease calculators and a similar excel spread but can't seem to get back to their pmt. Would indicate they are adding something but not disclosing.   Have been working with them several days and this seems like their bottom.   Leaning toward sitting still till next month (Memorial Day Specials) to see if it gets better. Can believe it will get worse.   Any thoughts? Replies to this message: rekfla (Apr 29, 2009 8:28 am) rasp (Apr 29, 2009 9:06 am)
