#3450 of 3516 2013 Honda Pilot LX 289/Month Special Lease Term
by jlewistx
Jan 19, 2013 (4:55 pm)
Howdy from Houston, TX
I need help! I just spent the day at the Honda dealership, and am close to making a deal. They ran my credit and it was perfect. Here are the parameters:
$27,495
~$800 in extra dealer add on crap
$350 in doc fee's
Trade in $29000/Payoff is $25177.36
The advertised lease deal is $2499/Down/289 Month x36 Months.
The best they can do for me is 319/month. When I asked why I cant get the advertised rate, they explain that the trade in complicates the transaction and ends up costing more. I can understand I owe the ~1150 for extra dealer crap, but what I don't understand is that for effectively $2800 Down I cant get the $289/ month deal. Because I am in TX, I really want to do a trade to forego the $1800 in sales tax.

Would it be possible to tell me what state you are in? I leased my Pilot on Long Island, NY. I paid 400 per month for same car. Curious if the state has anything to do with it. thanks. Also is your Pilot 4 wheel drive?

Never mind. I was looking at it the wrong way. I have done my research and I was REALLY getting worked over by the dealer. The trade gives lots of cover for the dealer to hide behind.

Hi Jim. Honda Finance's January buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 Pilot LX 4WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00073 and 55% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
Honda is providing a $500 cash incentive on leases of this truck right now. Make sure to take this cash into account during your negotiations.

#3454 of 3516 EXL Lease Info

Car Man,
Happy New Year.
Can you give me the MF and residual for:
2013 Pilot EXL - 4WD No Rear Entertainment System and No Navigation?
Looking at 3 yr 36k and 3 yr 30k leases.
Do you know if there are any extra incentives for leasing a 2012 Pilot - dealers seem to have a lot of inventory left. If the 2012 is a lot less, I am OK with getting one but for $10 / month, I would rather have the 2013.
Thanks,

Just leased a basic 2012 civic LX for my son.. {21st Birthday present !} $1000 down $175 mnth 35 mnths- we've leased 6 vehicles from the same salesperson. SHE's always working deals-
specialty--¨ getting us OUT of our leases 8-12 mnths early--and into NEW cars. (usually for around the same payment) We never consider buying at the end- We like 'NEW' every couple of years-
ANYWAY - she's come up with a deal for ME (early) on my 2011 Pilot EX...I'm 2 years into the lease ~ $410 mnth payment.
DEAL_
BUY before Jan31- (Indiana - snow everywhere- dealer is dead slow)
2013 EX-L 4WD
$435 1st payment (or tax\ title\ fees ---PAID by DEALER)
so Basically drop off my 2 yr old EX with 20,000 miles and drive out in a new 2013 EX-L with 7 miles on it (rides awesome huh?) for the same payment► $410 mnth ~35 mnths --- (which we never see 'cause we always in a NEW vehicle after 24 months !
)
Good Deal ? or am I missing the hidden $$ trick under the shell - ???
Thanks guys-

Thanks albert72. To you as well. Honda Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 Pilot EX-L 4WD with 12,000 miles per year are .00073 and 55% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
When negotiating your deal on this truck, make sure to take advantage of the $500 dealer cash that is currently available on it.
There is a little more dealer cash on the 2012 model, but no lease support so I wouldn't be surprised in the least if it was actually more expensive to lease a '12 than it would be to lease a '13 at this point.

Hey Gatorbaiter,
Sounds like a good deal to me! I can't say specifically on an EX-L current price but i just did nearly the same thing with my 2011 EX-L in Dec. Dropped it off 8 months early and picked up a Touring model for about $10 more a month.
Some else just reported on here doing the same. So it sounds like the Pilots are holding good value and Honda is more and happy to take the trade-ins. Plus with the lease prices dropping since 2010/2011 - the new model deals are more attractive!
Enjoy the new truck.... we love ours!
