So putting this out as a reference point for pilot/elite black edition shoppers.
Shopping for mom’s is hard, anyway she turned down 18% pre incentive off an x7, declined the aviator and settled on a pilot because it was less flashy to drive to work, go figure. (Has an 05 pilot she likes to drive so dead set on the pilot)
So I did the best I could. With some good constructive criticism from a few people on here.

@lazarus did. Lazarus is probably like me, shopping for their parents, and unlike me, he’s one savy bmw shopper, and if he said he got one for 18% pre, he found it somewhere.
Anyways great deal on the Honda, how many dealers did you have to contact
Yes I noticed it when they lined up lol, crazy what 15 years will do.
I found 18 on a dealer in Texas, advertised at 14.8% and went back and forth until he stopped at 18%, my goal was 20 but it wouldn’t have mattered after driving a bunch of my dad’s cars and occasionally my brother’s she wanted something lowkey.
Your volvo deals are insane lol! I do alright with bmw, and I went to 3-4 dealers, Shopped the quote around looking for a magic unattainable number, I wanted 43k before incentives and these guys got the closest so I bit. They have 180 pilots and had 12… now 11 black editions, I would assume they just wanted to dump some stock.
I thought so too
Dealer does not want me to share who they are. This was a circa net loss… maybe they had some advertising cash or bonus to hit but the deal itself should be a loser.
My thoughts exactly, if he would have hit 20 I probably would have picked it up for myself to make some money on SaL. At 18 + Shipping it just wasn’t enough for me.
Yup, Finished up her MBA, she had been slowly working towards it for a while, between working at the hospital 40-50 hours a week plus balancing family life it was a grind. Crazy after 4 years college + 4 years med school + 5 years residency she wanted one more degree.
