I wouldn'y pay by phillyguy3

one cent over MSRP no matter what. Although I did not/am not ordering a Pilot(I have a CR-V on order), the CR-V's had been going for sticker when the 02 first came out and I waited until the market loosened up. How would you all feel if 6 months down the line you find out that you could be paying UNDER MSRP! Of course if you want what you want when you want it, then you will have to overpay. I have always believed that no one can make you pay more than you want unless you give in. Just my opinion.

Is it artifical manipulation of the market? by jaw2000

I was able to get my wife's 00 Accord Ex 4 cyl for a great (below MSRP) price. Is this because there is much competition in that market + many Accords available?
 
If so seems that Honda is really screwing with the buyer -- did not Toyota do the exact same thing with the Sequoia?
 
Or are there still 'import' note the quotes on these guys/vehicles?
 
I am now more wary of buying from Honda/Toyota if they are out there creating their own market demand/supply ratios in order to get higher prices -- and dealers that are really sticking it to consumers with delaer packs that make it even more!
 
Did Chrysler do that with the PT Cruiser? How much can they gotten for now? Invoice + say about $100?

TMV for Pilot. They show $30,603 for an EX which is almost $900 over MSRP.

Dealer tried to sell me one on the lot with a value added sticker charge of $1,200.00 + list price and every dealer installed option for a total of $34,350.00!!! I told him I would buy a MDX Base for $35,200.00 before I spend that on a Pilot.
 
I offer MSRP on a Pilot EX-L from his next allotment. He said his General Manager ordered him to sell all his Pilots loaded with optional equipment. He said he ask his GM if he could sell me one MSRP and contact me work tomorrow. I got the OK the next day.
 
I put $1000.00 down on a Silver Pilot EX-L and paid MSRP $30,980.00.
 
Delivery in 4 to 8 weeks.

copterpilot1 regarding Weseloh by rustyjay

Hmmmm.....I just talked to Rick Nabers in the Internet Sales Dept. and he offered me one with $500 down for MSRP +$500.00. And he would drive it out to me. I live in Las Vegas......more on the dealers here later. Skip the Sales people they live by their commissions. The fleet or internet people take a salary and deal in volume so they will skip most of the outrageous things you heard. Of course you still have to be careful. For example, he would have given it to me for MSRP + $500 but I WOULD NOT have gone on a waiting list and that tells me that if a better offer comes along I would have gotten bumped until they couldn't find a buyer and they would tell me that it "just came in"

Anyone have any information on pricing in the southern Calif. market? I live in San Diego where the dealers are asking 1500 - 3000 over invoice. Thanks for the help!

I have been on an MSRP list since March (#10 on the list). According to their incoming orders, I should have had an EX-L in my hands by early July. However, I was recently informed that the dealership will sell most vehicles at market (above MSRP) and feed a few to those on the list. So far, no people on the list have received cars despite their receipt of several. When speaking with a sales rep, they estimated late summer before I could be surved? Remember, I'm number 10? I am very upset by these recent findings, and the constant changes in the dealers games. I will most likely move to another vehicle.

Sagebrush vs. Sandstone by murphybrown123

I'm interested in a Pilot EX-L and was quoted $1700 over MSRP at a Long Island dealership last night. The Price included options package (running board, roof, lights, etc). They expect Sagebrush and Sandstone vehicles in August.
 
Has anyone seen these colors yet? I'm leaning toward a Sage Brush Pearl but it is difficult to see the color in the brochure.

What is wrong with your people? First with the Odyssey and now with the Pilot... Don't you think, you pay too much for these vehicles? The Honda dealers are getting richer everyday on your hard earned money...Stop buying Honda untill they come down on the price...my 2cent.

Murphy, here is a link to the best picture I've seen of sagebrush

http://pilot.honda.com/images/popups/gallery_Exterior_0.jpg

I like it and have one on order (I get the first the dealership gets in...no build date yet, but hopefully august or september...) They offered me either the Silver or Red EX-L's they already had in, but the silver is a little too bland for my tastes (and there are way to many silver cars/SUVs around...had an Silver Odysey and MDX on either side of me yesterday)...and we already have a 02 CRV in Red

and just for tranmi...I'm buying at MSRP/No Options in Nor Cal to make you happy
