Not a big deal, I might be out of the market for a new Pilot all together. To make the long story short, my 2005 97K miles Pilot EX-L developed transmission problem (loud whines audible at all gears), I was finally able to have one of the local Honda dealers agreed to replace the transmission courtesy of Honda Care warranty. I was going to trade in my Pilot for a 2009 or 2010 before my extended warranty runs out in Dec 2009 or 105K miles if I can't get Honda to replace my transmission. Congrats on your house and your new car. Wow..you pick really good time to make your purchases.

Hi bob,
 
My strategy was to get the lowest price I could through internet quotes. Autopark Honda in Cary gave me the best quote right off the bat, and Flow Honda in Winston-Salem matched it, as well as Hendrick (sometimes after 1-2 calls and emails). I would definitely work with out-the-door prices for negotiating. Then, I used my quotes with the dealers that had the car I wanted, finding them primarily through online searches (though some dealers do not list their new inventory online, so I had to call them). Bryan Honda in Fayetteville was the only one that had an acceptable color to me, but it took about 20 phone calls for them to match the best price I had. The whole process took more than a month.
 
After it was all said and done, I feel we got a good price. I was still irritated that my dad got a slightly better price on his in VA, but I think he purchased it when the dealer incentive was $2000 instead of 1500. And they had a trade-in. Anyway, hope this helps, and good luck to you! You may want to search East Coast Honda in Myrtle Beach. They had a big inventory. Also Hendrick eventually agreed to deliver the car to me, so that may be an option if your car is far away. You may want to ask how many miles they have also. This could be a negotiating point for you.

Anyone hear anything about if or when 2010 Pilot incentives will kick in? Also, what kind of rates for 60mo financing from Honda are you getting?

Thanks for your suggestions. I did contact two dealers in Virginia,(Richmond and Virginia Beach). They were both so much too high on their initial quotes that I didn't follow up on them. But my wife and I are going to Crown in Greensboro Monday and have a quote that I'm comfortable with unless there are some surprises when we get there. I had one quote that was a little less down around Charlotte but the difference didn't justify going that far. That dealer participated in the Costco Auto Program. They quoted Invoice plus $100.

I would offer $300 below invoice as lately I saw some dealers are willing to do so on 2010 model.

I received a price quote of $32,314 for the 2010 EXL 2WD RES from a dealer in southern California. This price includes destination & handling charge. Is this a good deal or not?
Thanks,

We were the complete opposite. We liked the Highlander (sport with Nav/Res) at first, but after a couple of test drives and more research, we found the Pilot Touring RES/NAV to be cheaper with a lot more space (seating for 8) and more bells and whistle (that I would actually use like the USB Input).

No incentives? by kat2800

I am very surprised to learn that there are no current incentives on the Pilot. Any thoughts on this?

Anyone know if there is a way to see what dealers are expecting what cars and when? Also, anyone know what dealerships charge each other, if anything, for a vehicle trade?
