Well, I almost got a great deal on a red 05 Pacifica Touring AWD today w/leather and rear DVD. MSRP was 34,515, it was advertised for 25,988. Employee price: 28,239, less 2,000 rebate, less addl discount of 2,251. It had been advertised for two weeks, and we hemmed and hawed, hesitant to pull the trigger. When I finally decided to buy and went to the dealership on Saturday afternoon, I was excited to see it was still there, right in front of the showroom. I even verified the stock number on the sticker to make sure it was the ad vehicle. Alas, the salesman said they had just sold it - a couple was inside working up the deal as we spoke. He said he'd call me if the deal fell through, but the call never came. Moral: Yes, there is plenty of room to get a deal below the employee price. And once you make up your mind, don't hesitate.

Replying to: b25nut (Aug 03, 2005 4:44 pm) Great to hear about your Pacifica's performance. At this time, we have yet to receive any official information regarding the vehicle. As far as the release of the 2006 Pacifica's is concerned, the vehicle should be available early in the fall of this year and the information for it will probably be available a few weeks before that. Stay posted for updates. Miguel M. |

I am currently in the process of negotiating the purchase of a new car. I have been quoted very competitive numbers for the price of the car, but when I show up to have my Trade In appraised the dealers are considerably lower than what Edmunds or KBB show as the Trade In Value. I have a high mileage 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd. It also seems that they try to muddle the 2 together, price of the car and trade. Should these 2 be negotiated separately i.e.: what is the price of the car you are offering and what is the amount you will give for the trade. They have quoted "Wholesale value" on my trade, but should I even care about that? Is it unreasonable to require the numbers given by Edmunds and KBB? They don't seem to be very willing to budge. Any help would be awesome as I will hopefully be purchasing within the next day or so. |

Replying to: hutchinj (Jul 26, 2005 3:04 pm) What I got was Touring FWD, with after market leather (much nicer) DVD, CD, in roof monitor, power gate, roof rack, side airbags, and sirrius. I think thats it for about $26,225. I also was able to get 3 years of oil changes. I had to get some things that I didn't want, since the inventory of EP+ qualified vehicles is low. However, if you are willing to give and take, you can get a good deal without it being too painful to either side. I take delivery in a few days and look forward to it. My salesman was a great guy, and was very accommodating.

| Would like to know if anyone has had any dealings with Chrysler on a buy out at lease end? I have a AWD 04 Pac. Lease buy out is 21,400.00. It has 5 mounth to go. I would like to buy the Pac,but they are only selling for 18 to 19 K. I know I had a GM lease and they cut the buy out by over 2,000.00. If any one can tell me if they had any experience with this please let me know. | |

Replying to: arrtnut (Aug 10, 2005 5:03 pm) the second thing was I just had bad feeling that the transmission was going to go bad after my extended 70k warranty. They had problems before with transmissions and the pac was starting to shift very heavy at times when going at a mid speed say around 45 mphs. between 2nd and 3rd gears. the B9 was lighter but same HP. and figured the Subaru had better AWD. not that it matters much because the PAC handled very very well in the snow with snow tires on it felt solid. too many bad experiences getting it to where it was when I traded it. it ran well but the mulitple visits to the dealer left me never wanting another Chrysler ever again. the initial quality and design is not there. the features are hard to pass up and thats what got me into a PAC in the first place. but the quality of the features got me to leave Chrysler. I would recommend leasing a PAC. its a great vehicle for a 2 or 3 yr lease if they give you a high residual value
