Replying to: carsalesman2 (Jun 18, 2009 5:22 am) Not sure what you are referring to, but I am sure that you have no idea what you are referring to. I don't know anything about "Performance" and never claimed otherwise. I do know, however, that there is a huge inventory of '09 EXLs, and that Honda will not move them without raising their incentives to the dealer substantially. I would say that anyone who is purchasing a '09 EXL at $2500 under should think twice, when you can get a '10 at $300 under. A model year is worth a lot more than $2200. Unless you are planning on keeping this vehicle for forever, or unless you are leasing, it doesn't make sense to purchase an '09 at this time. Under certain circumstances, it may make sense later in the year, as Honda will undoubtedly be raising that incentive dramatically. The demand for these vehicles continues to be minimal, and the supply ('09 EXL) is very substantial. I'm not surprised by your post, because you are a car salesmen, and car salesmen commonly fabricate information to confuse, or befuddle others, for their own benefit, primarily. Good luck (not to you specifically, because you sound like a liar), but to others looking to this forum for real and useful information. P.S. I'm a chick, not a 'he'. |

Replying to: rayzam (Jun 18, 2009 11:43 am) Hope this helps. The best price I got was from Spreen Honda in Loma Linda. EX-L 2WD 28,069 (Advertised Price on their emails). This also includes a free lo-jack system if it was a vehicle on their lot. I spoke with Matt Humphrey who was great. The only reason I didnt buy earlier from them was that they did not have the Grey on Black I wanted. Only the silver. He offered to try and get another vehicle, but I ran into a BMW dealer and purchased something else. Moss brothers in Moreno Valley honda also quoted me 28,018.85, but they only had one White on Beige left. Not sure if they had any EX-L with Res. Becareful though, when I called for a quote they said $28,018.85, this was the Customer Service Rep. When I spoke with the sales, David, he said I was mistaken and quoted $28,418.85. I later spoke with a manager who confirmed the $28,018.85. My local dealer, Diamond Honda in City of Industry (sales Jerry), offered me a pretty good deal. $28,800 for EX-L, NO res, but had Lo-Jack and aftermarket Bluetooth. They actually had at least 8-10 EX-Ls on the lot, some with RES. I had to negotiate several times for them to give me this price though. Jerry seemed like a straight forward guy, no throwing random numbers around. He just couldn't match the price of Spreen. Lastly, both Riverside Honda and Norm Reeves in Cerritos seemed to have the best selection of colors, but they would not budge on their price of $28,800-$28,900. This is just my experience. The only places I visited personally were Diamond and Norm Reeves. And since I ended up buying something else, I cannot say if any of these dealers would have re-negged on their prices. But, all of them were happy to give me a e-mailed written quote. Best of luck Rayzam and anyone else on the market. I ended up buy a BMW, go figure. They gave me a ridiculous deal on a Demo 2008 when i took my other car in for service. Got no money for 2 new cars, I will save up a little and maybe buy at the end of the year.

Replying to: kellysim (Jun 20, 2009 4:46 pm) I found that the dealers that are giving $2500 and more discounts under invoice are running pretty low on choices. If those dealers had my color selection, I would have been driving a pilot last week. (Grey/Blue/Red on dark int.) But, those dealers that want more, seem to be sitting on a boatload of these Pilot EX-Ls in all colors. Not sure what they are waiting for, but if thats what they want, oh well. Hopefully Honda will increase some incentives so they can lower the prices. Just some experience from me. Best of luck everyone.

Replying to: pangaroo (Jun 20, 2009 4:59 pm) What is annoying (and confusing) is the fact that some want to group the EXL situation with all the other models. The EXL glut is massive, the other '09s aren't available to any great degree. The dealers are sitting on the '09 EXLs and they are waiting for Honda to increase their incentive so that there is a larger spread ($4k+) between the '09s and the '10s. Honda needs to get on with it because as time goes on it's going to get harder and harder to move these '09s. The dealers in my area are not selling them ('09 EXLs) either and the inventory is unbelievable. Good luck.

Replying to: kellysim (Jun 21, 2009 1:43 am) By the way I am always up for an adventure if the incentive is regional and worth it I will make that move. Road trip  Give me you input. You seem to have more credible and useful info. than others.

Replying to: kellysim (Jun 20, 2009 4:46 pm) All I am saying is that customers who listen to you might miss out on what is now a great deal on 2009 Pilots because you insist that the incentive will be $4000+. You are wrong. Get the chip off your shoulder and get over whatever happened to you at a dealership in the past. |
