It's your money and you have the right to save as much as ou could.. Look at the previous post...local dealer will not move from MSRP and got a huge saving for driving to another dealer.... People normally bit themselves thinking it's the last available car in the world.... Just look at auto trader or others and check for the car you are trying to purchase, that will give you an indication of depreciation and what actually the car can be sold. A friend just bought a Buick Lacrosse/Allure and told them....This is my final number (includes tax, fees, on the rodad)....you give me that car for that much and you have got a deal.... There was a few days of silence - that is the period where the dealer believes you will break up and come back to review what went wrong - my friend did nothing. Then he got the call, "it's a deal" and he got the car for $7000 under MSRP. |

Hello. I am in the Chicago area and looking into getting a GV Xsport AWD. I went to the Suzuki dealership in Hoffman Estates, and their MSRP for it is 22,699 + 595 delivery, so 23,294 on the sticker. I wanted to know how much others have been able to negotiate down on the same GV configuration, before any rebates, trade-in and financing. Thanks!

I got a sweet deal because of my misfoutune with my Verona, but the rebates are nice, especially if you get in a demo at Fox Valley, because it has never been titled, the price is lower because there is some mileage on it, and you still get all of the rebates, I think I got a total of 1500. That is the 1000 for cash rebate and 500 for loyalty. Well, hope I helped and good luck in the search, it is really a great vehicle from Suzuki. Peter

Replying to: pciro2180 (Sep 12, 2006 9:15 am) Yes, I did mean Advantage Suzuki in Schaumburg. It's so close to the border of H.E. that I mistakenly said Hoffman, but you are right. Thanks for the input. They had a few Grand Vitaras on their lot, as well as a few of the new 2007 SX4's. I'll keep in mind about Fox Valley Suzuki. I know there are some other locations around. There's still the 1,000 cash rebate. Unfortunately I'm not a current Suzuki owner so I won't get the loyalty one. Care to share how much yours cost when you got it after the rebates? Thanks, Jaygee

Replying to: jaygee33 (Sep 12, 2006 7:09 pm)  , It was bought for just above sticker price with 7,000 miles on it, which I don't mind one bit, just to get out of the GM/Daewoo Produced Verona, that was a nightmare Suzuki did not want from GM, but GM forced it on them anyways with the partnership. Thank god there is no more GM/Suzuki partnership!!

Hello all, I have a final offer of $18,555 before TT&L for a 2006 Grand Vitara Luxury in Azure Gray with black leather. Sticker is at $24,500, and I do have to take their balloon cash (which I can refinance in three months with my bank) and do a balloon payment at first to get the final ofer. Is this a fair price?

Hi All - I am planning to buy the 2007 Grand Vitara and i need to get some feedback from people who own this vehicle. - How good is the reliability ? Any major issues that owners have face - How many mpg in city ? - Is it a worthy investment or better to invest in Honda Crv or Toyota Rav 4 ? Thanks all

Replying to: rxv2562 (Aug 28, 2007 9:37 am) City mpg varies as much as what "city" means. This is not a light car, and unless you get the 2wd version, is always in 4wd. So if you're looking for a fuel miser, this isn't it. The X-Trail may be the best in this regard. The Grand Vitara holds resale value well. Yes, resale value is not as high as CRV or Rav4, but an equivalent model costs less to begin with. Keep the difference in cost in the bank and make interest on it. Consumer's Guide rated the '07 GV as the best value in the segment. IF you really need the GV's off-road capabilities, which are the best in this segment except for Chrysler's Liberty and Patriot, then choosing the GV is a no-brainer. If you don't need those capabilities, then the choice is harder because you pay a price to drag around all that extra metal, put up with stiffer suspension, get less milage due to the weight and full-time AWD, etc. Styling could well tip the balance also, if you happen to really like or dislike the GV. Or if you want something that's relatively uncommon to see on the road. |
