I understand you're frustrated and angry but they are in the process of making money so they could have been delaying returning your call because they were 'working' the other buyer. The other buyer obviously was willing to pay a higher price or else they would have ditched him/her and responded to you. Like I said if they made their money. When a dealer can make more money somewhere else, they will.
 
Just cool down and take a breather because it is very easy to now latch on to something you may not like or even paid a higher price on. Take it easy. If it's gone it's gone. Reevaluate what model you wanted when you started your search and follow up on the negotiation until you reach your price. If not, like I said, be prepared to walk away.
 
On the financing thing, I always make sure to secure the best financing interest rate before I go in. Then if the dealers will beat it, I will take theirs, if not, I just sign for the car and use my own financing. When you are ready to buy and is sitting at the table, and they can beat your financing to make some money, you bet they will so always get something in your hand.
 
Good luck on your search.

All good points. Thanks all. But, yes, very frustrating indeed!

I have noticed the supply for 2009 Pilot is disappearing very quickly in So. Cal. It seems that the price for 2010 Pilot is moving closer to 2009. I had one dealer offered me invoice for 2010 EX-L without negotiation. I also got two emails that offered me $30,559 and $31,468 (MRSP $34,555.00). Post 13224 got 2010 EX-L for 30100 in Atlanta and post 13236 had an offer of 2010 EX-L (2WD with RES) for $31K (this price is insane for 2010 without any known factory incentive at this time). I am in the market for Pilot EX-L and I could not find the color I wanted so I have decided to wait few months for 2010, hopefully we will see some incentive soon for 2010.

That's a great price for 2010. May I ask what dealer is it? Please let us know how it went if you purchased you Pillot there. Thanks

Where in ATL did you get this? I'm shopping around now - looking for 4wd Ex-L w/ RES, Running Boards and Aftermarket Bluetooth.
 
Best quote so far I've received was 35,200 +TTL (not even close to what I want to pay -- this is the amt. I want to pay for OTD)
 
I think I need to wait for some incentives to kick in.

I got it from Curry Honda in Chamblee, GA. Just do your negotiation by email to save time. Positive experience overall.

As no incentive for 2010 model, for the EXL FWD MSRP 34,555, I would offer invoice 31,368 - 300 (portion of holdback) = 31,068
Hopefully you can find 1 willing to sell after emailing 'at leat 10 dealers'.
 
Dealer Invoice Base Price $30,658
Destination Charge $710
Total Options $0
Total Price $31,368

With or without RES? I say you can probably do better than that price. Ask the many dealers you have in contact with to lower their price and the see what you can get.
