We just bought our Pilot at Motor Werks.

First contacted the salesman by email, back in May '02 to inquire about this new vehicle that Honda is releasing in June '02. Took one for test drive in July and ordered ours in October. Jeff Omet, at MW, was very helpful and informative throughout this prolonged process.

I cannot imagine a more seamless buying experience and he offered $500 off MSRP, which was very rare in October, when we ordered the Pilot, and is still uncommon from what I've heard around the country.

I also called Pauly, Grand, Rosen, Highland Park and Loeber (now called something else) and none of them would move from MSRP, when I talked with them in Sept./Oct. They may be moving below MSRP now.

I haven't been back in for any service yet, since we've only had the truck for 5 days, but I do plan to go in for a free carwash every Saturday, starting this week. Small, but nice perk.
