Friends, My friend just got silver honda pilot EX 2wd at $26,700 (Out of door SC). I wanted Nimbus/Sterling Grey but i could not find in SC,NC,GA,TN. so today, i went for EX 4WD instead of 2WD and i got Honda Pilot EX 4wd at $27650 (out of door SC). Some dealer have EXL in grey color but i didn't want leather. Hope, this may help my friends here to negotiate. I got it from Lake Norman Honda of North carolina. I visited two dealers in SC, two in NC and what i noticed is that most of dealer have EX-L with RES in stock, so if someone can wait for three/four months (around Nov/Dec2009), who really wants EX-L, will probably have about 1500 more discount compared to right now. Hope this will help. Thanks

I think this is more of an indication that the 2009 EXLs will require a $4,000-$6,000 incentive by the end of the year (if the dealers want to have any chance of moving them). Good luck. |

Target dealers who are very closely situated to one other - they seem to be competitive enough. Negotiating towarsd the end of the month can yield better results. Good luck.

I just got a call from a local dealer in MI who said that dealer cash has been increased to $2500. Is that true? Anyone else heard about it? Edmunds.com still has only $1500 posted.

Can someone help me make some sense out of these numbers? For reference, I'm looking at a 2009 EX-L 4WD (no RES) in Seattle area. Edmunds claims invoice is: $31,969 TrueCar.com claims factory invoice is: $33,031 TrueCar.com claims dealer cost is: $30,472 Dealer claims cost is: $32,738 The dealer has already offer the $1500 marketing support on top of the quote, but I'd like some evidence that his actual cost is much lower so I can bargin, but I don't know which number is the real dealer cost. The closest I came to making sense of it is: (Edmunds Invoice price) - (Marketing support) = (TrueCar's actual dealer cost) Can someone help me break down Edmunds vs TrueCar DealerCost vs TrueCar FactoryInvoice? On top of this, i don't see how anyone is getting this car for less than $30,469 as all numbers above point to the dealer losing money on the sale below that price. Dealers like having the math proven to them, so if I should be using a different number please let me know. Thanks!

Replying to: winterminute99 (Jun 15, 2009 6:27 pm) holdback is 2% of MSRP (excluding destination) the base MSRP is $35296. Holdback increases to 3% if the vehicle has been on the dealer lot over 90 days. 2% = $705.92 3% = $1058.88 You have the factory to dealer incentive at $1500 You *may* be able to get lower than these - depending on what you believe on these boards and real unpublished dealer quota incentives - best bet - wait to the last week of the month - have multiple dealers bid for your business - this will always net the lowest price in your area.

Replying to: cb35 (Jun 15, 2009 7:58 pm) For those quickly skimming posts, I'll do the math and summerize for the forum: The rock bottom dealer cost (with $0.00 profit for the dealer) for a 2009 EX-L (no RES) is: $30,433 (on lot 90 days or less) $30,081 (on lot 90 days or more) For what it's worth, ConsumerReports says to add 2%-4% (to the above number) for dealer profit as a fair price for all parties. Not sure how the boards feel about that.
