Amazon Green by sternouf

Chiming in on your redrock pearl post....
 
I was told that they are discontinuing Amazon Green on the Ridgeline this year which probably meant that they would do the same for the Pilot. Check out the color on a Pilot in person. It looks much better than the website. My purchasing notes are way above, but I bought the EX-L 4WD in Amazon Green for 29,700 plus delivery, tax, tag, title. Sticker on the car is $33,600 plus flaps and wheel locks bringing it to around $33,900. I bought it for $31500 out the door. I drive my Pilot on the mountain development I work for and it is gratifying to use the 4WD daily, in action, with clients on board enjoying the ride!

We used carbargains to get quotes in the DC metro area for a Pilot EX 2WD with cloth. The best quote was 1200 below invoice (same invoice as everywhere on the internet) plus 100 for processing. We get about 8 quotes back; the next closest was 1000 below invoice, but the rest were all over the map (500 under, 100 over). The dealer honored his price, but we had to push back on a few extras (mud guards, wheel locks) which we cut in half from what was being asked.
 
We paid 160 for carbargains to do the work, which we thought was worthwhile. Carbargains is associated with our local Consumer Checkbook, which is a nonprofit.
 
Not sure if we'll still be the Honda extended warranty, but the dealer was willing to match the Bernardi quote (see the warranty forum for how to get the warranty for cheap), which surprised the business manager.

If Capital One send a "payable through draft," which they usually do, then the dealer is smart to wait for it to clear. Payable through drafts are not payable on demand. They are payable subject to conditions. Only a few small town dealers get immediate credit on checks and very few, if any, get immediate credit on payable throughs.

Somebody is full of crap. Checks don't have "official stamps." There is no such thing. There are certified checks, Cashiers Checks, checks, and drafts. And unless the item is drawn on a bank in the same city most cannot clear in 24 hours. Certified checks and cashiers checks are "guaranteed" by a bank and payment cannot be stopped. Any other type can come back unpaid up to 7 business days.

Unless the "official stamp" has something to do with Check 21. If both banks are check 21 compliant payments can be processed within 24 hours.

Last week I paid $26,479 plus TTL for my 2006 EX. Sticker was about $30,100. About $600 under invoice or about $100 over true dealer cost (according to the dealer).
 
Brought from Gunn Honda, the "one simple price dealer" in San Antonio Tx.

There are no "official stamps." Check 21 is about imaging the checks and then processing the images instead of the paper. Yes, image processing can speed up check collection, but few banks can both send and receive images. We send all not on-us checks via image and can get "provisional credit" within minutes, but the "final payment" still takes a minimum of 24 hours and the checks can still return unpaid several business days later.
