Queen of the Road: Hi Adinar. Welcome to our blog! First off, I need to comment that for $18,000, you could get something alot nicer and newer. Possibly a new car if the right deals popped up. Secondly, the seller has it marked up too high that it’s ridiculous. Did you find this through a dealer or private party? Here’s the wholesale prices and the estimated prices that dealerships would sell that car for…
For a 2004 Honda Pilot EX-L with 38,670 miles, wholesale prices range from $15,200 (being in above average condition) to $13,500 (being in average condition) and $11,700 (being in below average
A dealership will usually aim to sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $13,050 to $16,800.
I recommend looking around, but if you really want this car, bargain hard, my friend. I checked out Craiglist for Little Rock, Arkansas and has no luck with Honda Pilots. Are there any other cars you’re considering or is the Honda Pilot a sure thing? Best of luck and keep us posted on how the purchase goes!
