Couldn't get the dealer to budge from invoice, which was $34,194 (including delivery). Thoughts?

Obviously they believe they can sell it for invoice. What would they do on a 2010? Also curious which dealer you are negotiating with as I am in the Twin Cities area also - and have you tried any others?

Total up how much you put down, taxes,fees, and total payments. Add that to the buyout and compare it to the cap cost. That will tell you how much you are actually paid for your 06. Now assume you borrow the full $17500 for 3 or 4 years and calculate the total cost including interest and sales tax. Look at all the numbers and figure what you paid for your 06 compared to financing the cap cost when it was new.
You have a nice reliable vehicle and only put 5k miles on it a year. At 10 years you will only have 50k miles. My 03 jeep liberty has 25k miles. Have read posts of those going 170k miles without a problem. Am keeping mine for at least 4 more years. Keep the oil changed -you probably won't even need brakes. Change the trans fluid and antifreeze at 5 years. Belts as well. You should have 4 years of driving with no payments if you keep it.Of course you will be driving an old car. But old doesn't have to be bad. Just throwing out some stuff to consider. Probably no absolute right answer.

Where is Mr Opportunity? 2009 Ex-L or 2010 Ex-L by blu3one

I live in the Philadelphia area and I've been reading over the boards. The Pilot will be the first brand new car I've ever owned. Right now I'm totally confused as to why the 2009's are going for only 2-3 K less than the 2010. Why would I want to buy a 2009 for 31,500 when I can get a 2010 for 32,355- from the same dealer. I have not sat down and negotiated with anyone in person yet, as my wife was trying to decide between several vehicles and came back to the Pilot. While I am not expecting to steal the Pilot, the dealers act as if the current economy is not hurting them. I realize Civics and hybrids will fly out the door because of C.A.R.S. but whose going to buy a 2009 Pilot for $900 less than a 2010? Here are the internet quotes without taxes and tags or other fees I have gathered so far:
 
2009 Ex-L
$29,600 --- 31,388 ---- 31443
 
2010 Ex-L 33,314 -- 32,800 -- 32,355 -- 32,604

Help with Pilot EX-L Lease... by logs1

Looking at leasing or purchasing a 2010 Pilot EX-L 4WD Auto, accessories consist of running boards with lights and moon roof visor. Trade is an older Range Rover that qualifies for a $4,500 trade in credit (which is more than the vehicle is worth).
  
In the past this forum has been extremely helpful in helping me buy/lease several cars at fantastic deals. For the 2010 Pilot, are there any specific lease deals that I should be looking at? 24 vs. 36 month term? Any outstanding financing deals that would steer me to a buy decision?
  
If a forum member could share any details on a '10 Pilot EX-L lease it would be a great help and starting point. Typically, the data below is what I would need to feel good about putting a deal together, and I have always posted specific details about my OTD final deals (see my history).
  
Thank you in advance.
  
Detailed numbers that I need help with:
MSRP - $37,092
Cap Costs = $
Term =
Rate - or - lease factor =
Residual =
Adjusted residual value =
miles allowed =
doc fee - dealer air fee =
  
Thanks again.

there have been several recent posts within the past 3 weeks that cover 2010 Pilot lease prices, incentives (or lack thereof) etc. Do a search on either my name or just go back to around mid July and you'll see what you're looking for...but you wont like it. Lease rates are ridiculous and no incentives.

Pilots have not had a history of tranny failure. The affected V6s were on early 00-03 or so Odysseys & Accords. Then again, if you want to blame Pilots for problems on other Hondas 6-10 years ago, you might as well include sludge problems on other Toyotas from about the same time.

This could be an LX (do you have radio controls on steering wheel? if so, it's an EX). That's a pretty good buyout price for an 06, with your mileage, imo. I'd buy it at that price.
