So you think I should sit tight and wait? I felt rushed to purchase tomorrow but I know I will kick myself if the rebates go down since a $2750 rebate isn't bad but If I can get more that would be awesome. I am hoping they stay the same or increase for March 2009. I just hope the car I want is still available. It's a gamble but I think I will wait and hope for more.

We've all been in that boat. Its a coin toss, or a gamble. How much do you really need the car? If the rebate does fall, do you have a backup plan? Dealers have told me that they don't know until its announced - and I believe them. Its like buying stock - how do you know it won't be cheaper tomorrow? How do you know if you've timed any market to buy at the lowest price? If I needed the car and they had the exact model with all the options and color, I'd buy it and not look back to see if the rebate increased.

I know it's a gamble and I think I am willing to wait to see. I don't need the car tomorrow and the car they have is close but not exact to what I want. This will allow me to research a bit more and find the actual car I want. If it means paying a little more - I am ok with that.
Thanks!

That sounds like a good plan. I think the first step is to find exactly what you want and the rebates are secondary. I wonder how many buyers "settle" for something because they think the rebate is too good to pass up?
Good Luck!

I was wondering the same thing about rebates and incentives. I started thinking about it when I was driving by a dealer in my area and noticed he was advertising one of his cars with "4000Rebate.com" on the windshield. That got me to thinking and I did some research on this site he was using. I contacted the parent company that owns 4000Rebate.com and they gave me the skinny on rebates and incentives... It seems that the manufacturer releases these deals pretty much at their whim. They base it on the excess inventory the dealers have on their lots, and then subsidise the dealer with these rebates to help him move the cars off of his lot. Even if they put an expiration on the rebate, the can cancel and replace it at any time they want. The dealer just has to go with it. I personally think that rebates are the way to go when buying a new car. Sometimes the dealer will add some of his own discounts to the rebate and you can close a pretty good deal. I found my 2008 Ford Focus at autoincentives.com national rebates page. Great site with current deals updated every day.

i am looking to buy a new buick enclave within the next six months. I know they are currently offering 0% interest for 60 months but was wondering if anyone has heard about them offering 0% for 72 months like Ford did this last weekend. Thanks for your help.

When is the decision made by the automakers of what incentives will be issued? Like Chevy currently has 0% for 60 months on several 09 vehicles but had 0% for 72 months 2 weeks ago. The current incentive looks to be up on July 31st. When is the next incentive usually published?
