Looking for thoughts on this one. Are dealers generally more willing to give a good price on a manual transmission since most buyers want automatic, or do they price higher because there are fewer manual trans Vibes for stick-lovers to choose from? MSRP $18,630 Supplier price 17,915 or 18,059 depending which GM website you believe (neither is a very good price) Invoice per Edmunds 17,518 Local dealer is quoting me the following: $17,893 vehicle price $204 doc fee + taxes and plate transfer - $500 rebate - $500 dealer cash (is this the $500 'marketing support' mentioned on the Edmunds site? The GM site currently lists $1,000 cash back so I want to make sure there's not actually $1,500 on the table here, i.e. $1,000 cash back PLUS $500 marketing support) - $2,000 GM owner loyalty - $2,000 GM Card (can I really redeem $2k on the Vibe? My card is not one of the old 'unlimited' earnings ones; it says the redemption allowance is $1k on Vibe but I've got a $2k top-off bonus earnings and the GM Card website says "GM Card Bonus Earnings can be used above applicable GM Card program limits." TOTAL approx $13,100 excluding taxes and plate transfer. This quote looks to be about $375 above invoice, plus the $204 doc fee. I've read the recent deals on the thread but just wondering if I should expect that a deal at invoice price is reasonable/attainable? I would think so, but don't want to be too greedy. The dealer would need to trade for this vehicle, from what I can tell. Same dealer offered a price of approx $11,600 on a 1.8L manual transmission Vibe with Preferred Package but without AC. That sounded like a much better deal -- $1,500 less than the one with AC, and AC is only a $950 MSRP option.

Replying to: bluedevils (Jun 24, 2009 7:57 am) Anyone thinking about purchasing a Vibe should consider that according to this New York Times article: http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/06/23/gm-to-end-pontiac-vibe-production-in-- august/?nl=wheels&emc=wheelsa1 production of the Vibe will end in August of this year rather than sometime in 2010 as was previously announced. I have not seen any rebates or incentives listed for 2010 Vibes so far and they have been arriving at dealerships as the 2009 Vibes disappear. |

Replying to: mallaik (Jun 23, 2009 3:18 pm) transmission) + $616 (sunroof) + 585 dest. charge = $20,470...That's for a 2009 Vibe GT. Incidently, the smoker's package invoice is $31 and MSRP is $35.. Let me know if you need anything further....

Replying to: raythegerman (Jun 25, 2009 9:07 am) transmission) + $616 (sunroof) + 635 dest. charge = $21,902...That's for a 2009 Vibe GT. The smoker's package invoice is still $31 and MSRP is $35.. So GM added almost $1500 since then. Still $20470+31=20501 is $1301 more than $19200, the invoice mallaik got. Wish we can get a deal that good. |

We have the details worked out on a 2009 Vibe purchase for my son. Now I just need to decide if rebates will be better or worse in July. We have a current Pontiac, so quality for the loyalty rebate. Dealer is passing along the dealer rebate, so total is 3K. 1,000 in rebates expire 6/30, although the loyalty rebate expires 7/6. My intuition is telling me that regular July rebates will go up, but the loyalty may go down. I'm hoping to have a day where I can double dip so to speak. Other peoples thoughts on this, please!
