Me Too. My '05 CTS to be is now $200 higher but this is without the dealer cash of $1500 that was on the table last month. So, if the dealer puts the $1500 back on the table I would have saved $1300. I was hoping for something around $2000.
 
We are awaiting postings from the more "insightful" on this forum. What exactly are the new incentives during this Red Tag event? Are they only mfr to dlr?

1.9% on 2004 BMW M3? by leeshuck

I noticed a 1.9% APR starting in December, ending January listed from the incentives and rebates tab for the 2004 M3 - is this applicable in Southern California?
 
Thanks,

The additional Red Tag incentives are in the form of GMAC Finance Bonus Cash. It is slightly different in each of GM's 5 areas. But they increased the amount on some of the cars that already had it and added it to others that didn't have it before. Not all GM models will have the Bonus Cash.

Is there a place on the net to find what is available in the various regions or is it posted on the GM site somewhere.???

gmbuypower.com seems to have the most comprehensive listing for incentives and they also seem to have this site updated the fastest when new incentives are added. Once you go to the site, click the "Current Offers" link near the top of the page.

It doesn't make sense to me why GM even has the second FAQ listed though. Since GMID = supplier price, why would one ever try to use the GMID plus GM card earnings in "conjunction" with the Employee/Supplier discount? The question itself doesn't make sense to me.
 
I'm looking at a new Maxx and am a bit confused; the Red Tag Sales Event didn't help.
 
I think there are two scenarios under the new incentive, using the Maxx as an example:
 
$3,500 total cash allowance, GMAC financing required - but NOT low interest
 
OR
 
$1,500 GMAC "bonus cash" allowance, low interest terms (i.e., 3.9% for 60)
 
With either choice if you use employee/supplier discount you get an extra $1,000 allowance.
 
(not sure if you get the extra $1k if you use GMID, but I hope so)
 
Is this how other folks understand it? Or is there some more mystery not reflected on the chevrolet.com special offers website?
 
If I understand right, with the GM in the Driveway program, the deal could be as good as:
 
GMID Pricing (equals supplier pricing)
- $1500 GMAC bonus cash
- $1000 extra bonus for being a GM participant
- $2000 GM card points "roundup"
all financed at 3.9% for 60 months
 
I did browse through my dealers lot this afternoon & saw Maxx's that should invoice out around $21,500 were red tagged around $18,000.
 
I got one quick call into my salesman before they closed tonight. He said the $18,000 red tag is based on the $1,500 GMAC Bonus Cash (and thus, would use the low interest financing). This didn't make sense to me, but I need to call back Monday to learn more.
 
Hope you are all having better luck understanding the deals!
 
Cheers, Steve

I acquired a lease on a 2004 M3 convertible and the dealer did admit there was a 1.9% financing program. They wanted to mark it up to 2.9% for the selling price offered. I posted details on the lease in the "Lease Questions - Ask Here" discussion.

Instant Value Coupons by Car_man HOST

Yes, wrx, General Motors provided its dealers with a new round of $500 Instant Value Certificates for the month of December. On Chevrolet models, up to two may be used per 2005 model and three per 2004 model, but dealers definitely do not have enough of these certificates to use one on every deal.

I don't believe that the General Motors' dealer cash on the 2004 Cadillac CTS changed in December. There was was $1,000 on this car in both November and December.
