#2252 of 11830 Re: Mike Pruitt Honda [taino #2244] by taino May 03, 2004 (7:13 am)
Replying to: taino (Apr 27, 2004 6:30 am) I have not been able to post my new car experience sooner since I've been occupied with my new ride. I picked up my Sandstone Metallic Pilot EX-L with Navigation on Friday. My brother in-law and I flew from NYC's Laguardia to Ohio and was picked up at the airport by the salesman that I've been dealing with. We were out of the dealership within an hour. The salesman was great. He went over all of the features and even helped me program the navigation system for the long drive back to NJ. Worked like a charm. He is the man! I can't say enough about Mike Pruitt Honda. They were professional and very easy to deal with.

Replying to: wxman3 (May 02, 2004 6:07 pm) Hi there,   I purchased a Honda Odyssey EX-L on April 28 with Burnsville Honda in Burnsville, MN. I paid invoice - $500 (Honda mkting support incentive?) for the van. I could not get a Pilot for less than MSRP - $500. We love the van and we could not justify the price difference between Pilot and Odyssey at this time. We liked Toyota Highlander but it is a bit too small and it was hard to get kids in and out of the 3rd row. Liked Sienna but again, hard to justify the price difference. Good luck with your search/purchase! Replies to this message: wxman3 (May 03, 2004 9:12 pm) dhander (May 09, 2004 10:51 am)
#2254 of 11830 Pleasant Pilot Purchase 'xPerience by pepperspop May 03, 2004 (6:20 pm)
It all started with a fuse...   Early Wed. a.m. on my way to a business meeting I stopped (for the first time)at Peter's Honda in Nashua, NH to pick up a fuse for my '96 Accord radio/power jack (1st thing that broke in 8 years). Parts guy tossed me a few 15 amp fuses for free. This put me in a good mood and I decided to yet again torture myself trying to get a deal on my wife's dream car, the Pilot. Surprise!!! 15 mins. later I had a Black 04 EX-L (in stock...they said this never happens and after reviewing this board for a while I agree) for $29,970 bottom line including dest. charges etc.   Picked it up Friday night...no hassles...the way car buying should be. Now I'm hoping it will be 2012 before anything breaks in this car.   Thanks for the postings. They've been most helpful.

Replying to: twins7 (May 03, 2004 10:40 am) Twins7...thanks for the reply. Been a minivan family for the past 10 years ('94 Nissan Quest), and looking forward to upgrading to car based SUV. However, still expect to tote the friends of our kids, so thinking the third row seating would be nice. Hard to fathom paying MSRP for vehicle, and if area dealerships standing firm, will likely focus on new Pathfinder. Typically Nissan has no problem building inventory.

I recently test drove a pilot and casually talked price at Brookdale Honda in northwest suburbs. Salesman mentioned they were offering about $1000 off msrp. I haven't yet gotten down to serious negotiating as we don't want to purchase until mid summer. He seemed to indicate they had a few vehicles in stock and are more likely to negotiate on those.

RES = Rear Entertainment System. I'm also looking to buy a Pilot with Navigation. Could you share your buying experience and where you purchased it.
#2261 of 11830 Buying Experiance by cds12 May 06, 2004 (5:50 pm)
I emailed every Honda Dealer within 50 miles plus a couple in Ohio (excluding my local dealer). A total of 16 requests. Here is what I asked for:   "I am looking for a Sage Brush Pearl Pilot EX-L RES with one DIO, rear splash guards. I am ready to purchase as soon one is available. Please email me with your best price both before and after TT&L. Thank you for your time." Name Address Phone Number Fax Number   I got 2 phone calls and 6 Emails. I took my best price and Emailed the highest price asking them to beat it. I did this for a couple of days until I though I was near the bottom.   My initial Emails were sent out Tuesday nite and by Saturday morning I put a deposit down on a Pilot.   I also called the local salesman I took the test drive with and said "I did the internet thing and the best price I got was $30,100 I would be happy to buy from you if you can match it". He put me on hold to talk to his sales manager. Came back and said that is a great deal and I can't come close to beating it.   I live between Harrisburgh and Philly. Prices went up the closer the dealership was to Philly and prices went down as I went west.   Faulkner also offered free delivery. But its only 50 miles away. And I didn't want anybody driving my Pilot. So I picked it up with only 3 miles on it.
