#7006 of 11875 Re: Anyone has experience with Sloane in Phila area [info_seeker] by odie6l Jul 31, 2006 (5:01 pm)
Replying to: info_seeker (Jul 31, 2006 3:38 pm) I grew up south of Philly in Aston, and can tell you Sloane is an OK dealership. If you want to save some money, head out this way (Central PA. (Lancaster, Harrisburg, Lebanon, Hershey)) You may have to drive a bit down the turnpike, but you may end up saving a good bit. Remember, we don't have to pay the extra 1% city (7% total) Sales tax. Plus we have so many Honda dealers out this way, theyare just tripping over each other to get you buisness.   Odie Odie's Carspace   P.S.- being a Rizzite also helps - Search for 'The Rizzo Method' (car buying method) for a better explanation.
#7007 of 11875 So. Cal - EX-L by bh22 Jul 31, 2006 (5:28 pm)
Thanks to those on the forum that helped me get what I think was a good deal on my EX-L pilot. Ended up at $25,200 (incl Dest, +TTL) at Honda World in Orange County. Replies to this message: budinct (Jul 31, 2006 5:32 pm) mh2006 (Jul 31, 2006 6:25 pm)

Replying to: bh22 (Jul 31, 2006 5:28 pm) That is a good deal. I did alot of shopping and the best I could get on the EXL was 27,100 + TTL. Plus, they only had Gold (not for me).   I did not pull the trigger since the # was high and they would not budget and the trade in was under valued.

Replying to: bh22 (Jul 31, 2006 5:28 pm) That's a great price for an 06 EX-L. It ~$6k below invoice.

Replying to: azjim (Jul 31, 2006 1:08 am) azjim, just to add my two cents about car color in AZ, and having bought a Silver Pilot recently. Years ago I worked at a dealership in AZ and in the morning they washed all the cars. After a short time the white cars were still wet and cool to the touch, the burgundy cars were dry and warm but the black cars were not only dry but hot to the touch. Also recently Mythbusters on Discovery sucessfully tested that dark cars get hotter faster "especially in AZ". Replies to this message: azjim (Jul 31, 2006 10:25 pm)
#7012 of 11875 AVOID VINART IN LEHIGH VALLEY: THEY WON'T DO THE DEAL! by prosource1 Jul 31, 2006 (7:42 pm)
My wife and I are trading our 2004 Pilot for an 06 EXL-RES. Vinart responded to my emails for $28k for the newand $15,500 for my 'O4. Upon arrival their best offer was as follows:   $29,995 for 06 EXL-RES $15500 for '04 EXL-RES with 85k (exactly what KBB lists) $1083 for accessories (lower trim, cargo tray and air deflct   Isn't this about $1900 more than what they could sell this to me for? They wouldn't touch the $28K and the salesman got nasty when I told him I wanted the $28K or nothing. We walked. Clinton offered me $27900 but they are in NJ and its a hassle b/c I am in Pa and then need to have the truck inspected here. Oh and I was buying an '06 Civic as well and they let me walk. My wife and I were not impressed with the way we were treated. They made no effort to retain our business. That is our last visit to Vinart and I do not recommend them. Over and over I am reading bad things about this dealership and their wooing of customers in on prices and then not touching the deal they imply they will do. Low-class operation.

#7013 of 11875 Re: EX-L AWD with NAVI in NorCal [gogogooo] by dhnsx Jul 31, 2006 (10:09 pm)
Replying to: gogogooo (Jul 31, 2006 12:15 pm) damn that's a grrrreat deal!!! that is why I miss livin' in Cali... I just picked up a 06 EX-L AWD w/NAVI for my parents for $30000 (including dest, rear splash guards, cargo tray, and cargo cover. I actually wanted those items.) not that great of a deal as everyone else but I was pretty happy. I did do my homework and tried everywhere but the dealers in washington didn't seem like they wanted to deal...

Replying to: 99accord (Jul 31, 2006 6:51 pm) well as long as I dont sit on the hood then it really doesnt matter! LOL My silver durango with tan leather was hotter inside than my black pilot with saddle cloth.
#7015 of 11875 Seattle Area by ghansonuoi Aug 01, 2006 (6:45 am)
We wanted to give an update on our Seattle area experience. I spent a fair amount of time on this forum picking up details and things to ask.   This was our first "new" car so we tried to go in eyes wide open.   We bought an EX-L, Black, 4wd from Renton. Hubs and rear mud flaps were on already. Buzzsaw11 gave us a contact to work with there that worked out quite well.   As other people have commented on, I think that Seattle/Washington is a tough market, but sometimes if you find something you want, you have to pay a little bit more. In my mind, agonizing and wasting a few weeks of your life haggling and thinking about these things is worth $500 on a price (enough of that - on to the details)   Price was just as was quoted over the phone- no hidden fees. We paid 27,800 - $2667 for Tax, Documents $35, TTL $214.   They did have a "Christmas in July" promotion that had no payments in 2007 and free gas x 6 months - which he said due to the price we didn't qualify for. (Didn't quibble - thought we had a good price and just wanted to get home).   We got the running boards, did not do an extended warranty (thanks edmunds discussion). We did keep the alarm system deal that they had "put in" all cars - I think it is overpriced but at least it is in (and I didn't have to spend a few weeks figuring out what system to buy, having to send my wife and two young kids in to have it put in-- etc. etc - too much hassle). In retrospect, not sure how much this adds to the system already on the ex-l, and I had forgotten what had been discussed on the forum.   Last question - Has anyone had experience with the wind deflector for the moon roof? I have heard the deflector can have a whine when you drive at highway speeds. I'll check the accessories forum too.   Thanks again for all the insight!
