#6220 of 13818 Pilot Sales for July 4th by kodum Jun 06, 2006 (5:49 pm)
Does anyone know if there will be better sales prices for the July 4th holidays for the Honda Pilots? Has anyone had any experience in the past with July 4th sales that they can share, be it good or bad?   Please help. Trying to convince my wife to wait till then. We have our first baby coming around that time and I want to see if we would get a better deal if we wait till then. Can anyone help! Thanks.   Kwame, Silver Spring.

Replying to: kodum (Jun 06, 2006 5:49 pm) I have no experience w. the 4th, but we just bought a Pilot last nt. We live in DC and are expecting baby #1 too. I scoured the forums and took notes as to the lowest prices that people paid for the pilot I wanted (regardless of the current "deal") and went to the Edmunds "Get an Offer from a Dealer" site. You can only e-mail 3 at a time, so I did it 7 times and e-mailed all of the dealers within 30 miles. I wrote exactly how much I wanted to pay out the door. 2 came back with prices lower than the one that I had pitched. the others were all higher. I then took the lowest number and went to teh dealer closest to me to see if they could match the price and they did. All in all, I only made one trip to a dealer when I bought the car, and never spoke to anyone--everything was done by e-mail. You need to keep things in order when managing so many offers, but I got my Pilot for just about $30 EXL out the door including tax, tags, freight, fees, the alarm+undercoat+clear coat (I am a sucker)+mudflaps+wheel locks+mats+some other small stuff. Hope this helps. Replies to this message: kodum (Jun 07, 2006 4:59 pm)

Replying to: kodum (Jun 06, 2006 5:49 pm) I personally think that the long weekend makes no difference. Dealer is just looking at his bottom line. If it makes financial sense for him to sell the car he will, whether or not its a long weekend.   Sometimes dealers may advertise lower prices on the long weekend. They may be trying to drum up more business. But this just means its easier to get the lower price. He would still sell it at that price earlier, he just didn't advertise it. If you have found this board, then you should be able to get that price anyways. Just shoot for 2K below invoice and don't accept any worse than $1500 below.   With that said, there are two reasons it could be cheaper on the 4th. Its the end of the month for one. While not technically the end of the month, I'll bet for record keeping purposes it is. So if a dealer has to meet a certain goal, they will be more inclined to take a loss. However finding this particular dealer needing to meet a goal is dumb luck, and almost impossible. The other reason is that incentive from Honda could change. However this is like .1% chance as current incentives are scheduled to run through the 4th. I wouldn't feel any need to wait till the 4th.

Is the $500.00 destination charge negotiable?
#6224 of 13818 Pilot in SoCal by zanc7 Jun 07, 2006 (1:53 pm)
Thanks for everyone's input on this forum. I have been quoted $29,895 + TTL for an 06 EX-L with NAV and chrome side steps in southern california.   Most dealerships are coming in around the same. Do i still have some wiggle room?   Thanks. Replies to this message: ronen1 (Jun 09, 2006 7:55 am) zanc7 (Jun 09, 2006 12:18 pm) alanrosenberg (Jun 10, 2006 9:47 am)

Replying to: dcislander (Jun 06, 2006 6:18 pm) That was great information. I think with that in mind, I can expect similar actions from other dealers when I send them e-mails like you did. We are looking for options like you got plus NAV & DVD. We are however not looking to walk out the door paying more than $30k. It seems hard but we are hoping end of month sales will cause some as far as 50 miles away to consider our offer. We're only scared that since this would be our first big ticket purchase, we might be taken advantage of. Did you get the car in the exact spec you wanted it in? Thanks a lot for the advice. Congrats on BABY #1. Kwame
#6226 of 13818 Any rebates / finance offers in July ? by sacamb Jun 07, 2006 (5:44 pm)
Does anyone know if there will be manufacturers rebates or any financing offers made available bu Honda in July ? So far there's just a lease offer on the Pilot. Planning to buy one with the DVD RES - but can wait until next month if any special offers will be available. Replies to this message: va_guy (Jun 09, 2006 3:45 am)
