There four Honda dealers within 50 miles of my hometown one in South Central PA. I listed each in descending order of proximity on a sheet of paper. I then priced the trade-in value of my 2012 Touring Pilot w/83k miles with Kelly BB, Edmonds and CR's and printed them out. The range of value was $9K to $17k. I took my dealer list paper and the print-outs with me and began my visit with the hometown dealer and showed them the valuations for trade-in from the on-line resources, shown them the dealer list and told them I won't pay more than $30k for the Elite. If you won't meet my terms I'm going down the list until one of the other dealers does. They gave me $15k for the Pilot and I had a new Luna Elite for $30k with running boards in two days.
 
Yes, very dark green. There are about 3-4 of them within 50 miles of me in Houston area. Even when I searched online auto pricing sites, they don't show a green as a color option.
When I test drove it last week, it was so dirty from dealers new building construction, sales guy called it black. After I parked in the sun, we saw the dark metallic green color come thru.
Are they that rare? It's not as nice as the Outbacks Touring green. But it's different than all the light/dark grey autos I own/owned.

Have yet to see that color. Nice.
 
Dealer washed it few days later n sent me pics of it. It's a very dark green, metal flake was vool. But it looked black as it was very dusty and parked in the shade.

It really looked black before washed...."There's none blacker". Nigel Tuffnell
 
Seems all the dealers in my area have the "Pro Pack" add on pkg on every Passport. I mean, it's accessories I usually get aftermarket on my last few SUV's but its so very over priced on that front windshield sticker I'm seeing. Don't see them taking that gear off any PPorts at any point.

Short of ordering one, I guess best move is to haggle the price down some on this Pro Pack. But it seems so over priced, one might still pay too much for such adds on at those prices.

Ah well, at least I'm getting a couple more full, OTD prices now and not just sketchy numbers as before. The haggle-dance continues; y'all.

OH AND, not the best pics sales-slug sent me but here is the green colored Passports' I'm seeing in my area.

I hate it when dealers put on packages/accessories just to drive the price up :(

Interesting colour. It looks like you really need the light to hit it right for the green to show - just like the copper.
 
Yes it is a very deep, dark green. Sslesguy came out saying, O have r keys to this black one. And he sells the damn things, lol.
More I look at it, kinds getting past this green color. But I do prefer the grey colored rims over black. Even the blue passport not great w grey wheels, imo.
The metallic grey w grey rims, just the best match, again, imho.
 
Ended up getting the Obscenely Blue Touring, 2WD today. OTD. @ $38,351. They did very well on my '15 HL trade, I ended up financing an even $27,000.00 with C.U.

Same accessories Pro Pack as most, wheel locks, cargo tray, mud flaps. I haggled down those silly window tint, nitrogen prices so I could add Outdoor Side Lighting just off their price sheet. I may add aftermarket nerf bars or running bars later. Very happy with my deal today. peace, e

Congratulations! Welcome to the owners circle :)
Nice colour there - one of my shortlisted colours (y)
 
I may have posted this elsewhere. After emailing 4 Houston area dealers asking for a total drive out price, with only one actual visit test drive, 3 came back at $42k. But still minus Tax, doc fees,add ons, etc for a 2wd, Touring.
Then one, unprompted besides my first email, came back with $38,351.00 total cash price. At that price, I had to drive the 25 miles to see it. They had 4 passports. I test a grey n blue one.
Asked them to knock off few hundred from the silly window tint, nitrogen prices and they did.
They had mudflaps, cargo tray, rust proofing. No upgrade mats. But my upgraded aftermarket mats from my HL fit almost perfect in my PP
They did way better than I expected on my '15 HL-LE trade. F&I lady was quick to take my NO replies to her add ons. Signed papers, drove off about 2.5 hours total
 
Passport Elite trim purchased on May 11th 2019.
Modern Steel Metallic with Black leather interior.

$40,928.30 with destination included + dealer installed accessories + $799 dealer fee in South Florida. So adding them together puts us at $41,727.30 before adding tax/title/registration which is location dependent. No trade in.

Installed Accessories ( Dealer already had on car) - Pinstripes, Door Edge Guards, Body Side Molding, Wheel Locks, Front Window Tint / Lifetime Warranty, Cargo Cover, All Seasons Mats, Cargo Trays, and Cargo Bins.
 
2Eklab, Congrats on a good deal. I had body side molding thrown in on my '15 HL as part of that deal. I felt it made my HL stand out. Some thought it detracted from the smooth lines look.

I almost got the BS molding with this new blue, Passport but passed. If you get a chance, pls post a pic of your new ride showing it with the body side molding. I'm curious to see how it might look with that add on.

On my HL it sat in the middle of the door area. Not sure if it worked but I never had a ding. From some pics, it seems they place it kinda low on the Passport. Not sure one could have them raise it higher, if they chose to? Thanks and peace, e.
 
Finally got one. Fresh off the line. May manufacture date. Black/Black Elite. 44k OTD. Coulda financed and got 500 rebate, but just wrote a check.

.. A couple places offered 500 less but didnt have a new one in the color we wanted, so.. yea.
