I was quoted 30188 for the EX-L with RES.
I am assuming that the EX-L without RES should be abt 28000.
What price r u being quoted?

dealers aren't worried right now. let's see them change their tune when the 2010s hit the lots (this week) and the month is coming to an end. July should be the time to deal. Also, there is no way an EX-L w/out nav or res should be more than $29000. The dealers in the philly area all are quoting around $30,500 not including ttr.
 
the lowest interest rate for 60month i've seen is 5.24%. anyone have a lead on better financing?
 
thanks,
m

I'm working with a salesman and he's not giving me a firm number till I sit down and ready to sign, typical high pressure tactic, but I'm not ready to play his games. I'll be sending out quote requests and just want to see what people are getting.

This issue for me which doesn't put time on my side is I want a touring.. the best I can get for a touring with RES is 34K. My first choice is a touring w/o RES, but I can't find one in the colors I like. I can't imagine an 09 touring being around on June 30th? Thoughts?

for 2010 model I think one has to prepare to pay prem. (between MSRP and invocie) and no incentive will kick in that fast.

We bought our pilot touring on May 30 with an interest rate of 4.35% (4.60% advertised rate) through Bank of America. Checked today and the advertised rate is 4.40%.

Our dealer told us intially they would be selling 2010 at MSRP which is a good reason why we bought an 2009 last week.

I am quoted $29,900 for 2009 FWD Pilot EXL with RES (dark cherry color with beige leather interior). This is in North CA.
 
Try out Penfed.org (Credit Union); they are offering 3.99% for 60 months on new autos. Might be tough to qualify, but worth trying.
 
I got auto loan approved from Valley Credit Union for 3.49% for 36 months.

I just checked online with BofA for an Auto loan on a new car.
I got approved for the following:
$30,000.00 New 72 months 4.77%
$30,000.00 New 60 months 4.17%
This quote is valid for 30 days and it says the following:
"This rate might not include all additional discounts for which you may be eligible. Additional discounts will be applied to your loan prior to the closing."
 
Any idea what other discounts I may be eligible for?

Expect to pay $500 - $1000 over invoice on a 2010 in about 1-2 months.
 
Even at $1000 over, the 2010 is a better deal than an '09 at $3000 under. The depreciation on the Pilot is more than $4k/year. Of course if you are going to hold the car for a long time or if you are leasing, the '09 may be a better deal, but $3k under on the '09 is probably not enough given the huge inventory levels (EXL).
 
To the people who bothered to respond to the saleman who said that the '09 EXLs will be "sold out" in a "month or two" - many car salesmen lie. In the age of the Internet it doesn't make sense to lie, but they do it anyway. Why? The good salesmen are all gone, because there is no longer any money in selling cars. What's left is a largely unprofessional and untrained group. How can you tell? Because they believe that their potential clients are dumb and so they treat their prosects like they are dumb ("The EXLs will be gone in two months!"). This is the reason that the model for selling cars must change.
 
Be well and good luck to all.
