Hi, YEP just came back from the dealership. I bought the last 2004 Malibu MAxx on the lot. I used a GSM discount..so I paid 22,800 for a Galaxy Silver Maxx LT with 1SB options package. Got $5000 in rebates and I paid $1400 for a 72 months, 72,000 mile GMPP 0 deductible Major Guard warranty. They said that the $1400 was the GMS quote for that warranty. It would've been about $200 cheaper if I went for $100 deductible. By the way..my dealership didn't offer any longer warranty on new cars. So about $21K out the door for a loaded LT with sunroof and 6 yr 72,000 mile warranty. My car was built June 06, didn't notice any rough idle or steering drift (knock on wood).
 
So now I'm officially part of the Club! I pick up the car Saturday

Current rebates end Sep 7th and GM sales were down 14% for August so rebates should stay the same or get better.

'04 Maxx LS Rebates by tfbr

On 9/1 I was given the following rebates:
 
Incentive Amount
Customer Cash 3500
Bonus Draft 1500 financing through GMAC, no prepayment penalty
Marketplace 500 MI rebate similar to some other regions
GMS GM relative1000 recently announced employee/relative rebate
Total Rebates 6500
 
I would think everyone should be able to get at least $5000 through 9/7. See my full post under Chevrolet Malibu Owners: Meet the Members Discussion: Run, Don't Walk...yes, the incentive may continue but if you are seriously looking I'd lock it in. After exhaustive review and evaluation my experience and impression of the Maxx is extremely positive.

I've been to busy to go to the dealer. There are hundreds of Maxxs within a couple hundred miles of Omaha so I'm not worried. We'll see what the rebates do on the 8th.

Well I am interested in a 2004 malibu base sedan and they have it in white or black...for $12k!! However, when I went in to purchase it, than all of a sudden I could only get the $1500 if I financed it and that wasnt' one of the rebates listed on the car but the saleguy goes, "oh someone wrote it up wrong". I have to go in and really read what all the rebates are as the sales people angered me by taking so long and kept coming back with this or that! And now I keep reading about problems on the other webpage so still havent' purchased..hopefully the problems are more with the MAXX?
 This is the first time I've ever NOT seen a car that really thrills me...seems each manufacturer is making everything "loaded"=mostly power and that concerns me as my previous 3 cars weren't and they had NO problems for each of their 8 YEARS! Wish me luck.

Don't rush into a purchase they want to sell them more than you want to buy one, see http://www.detnews.com/2004/autosinsider/0409/06/a01-261924.htm

What is the Marketplace 500 MI rebate similar to some other regions. I have gms and they said there is only $6000 in rebates. Could you post more information on the marketplace $500 rebate.
 
Thank You

Hi, I will be buying an 04 Maxx LS in Oregon today (last day of current rebates). I am a GM employee relative so will be getting the $3,500 cash back + $1,500 GMAC financing + $1,000 GM relative bonus discount for a total of $6,000 in incentives. Have an internet quote already of invoice price less these rebates so hoping to do better at the dealership where my mother works.
 
Ill post the deal we get but thinking it will turn out to be simply invoice minus the $6,000 in rebates so looking at around $13,764 (no sales tax in Oregon).
 
My mother says there are lots of rebates so it is confusing to know which ones we qualify for and there may be more bonuses on top of those listed. She says she has no idea what new rebates may become available after today so we will jump on this bargain.

A reporter is looking for a consumer who within the past few days has purchased a new vehicle, primarily motivated by the incentives currently being offered due to the end of the ’04 model year. If you live in the LA area and are willing to talk with the reporter about how you made your decision, please e-mail Pam Krebs, Edmunds.com PR, at pkrebsedmunds.com, with your daytime contact information. The reporter will need to speak with you before mid-day tomorrow (Wednesday, Sept. 8). Thank you.

OK we bought the '04 Malibu Maxx yesterday. Boy was the dealership packed with everyone rushing to get in on the rebates before they expired!
 
We got the 2004 Galaxy Silver Maxx LS with:
 
Preferred equipment group 1SB
Power Sunroof
Onstar
XM Satellite Radio
6-Disc CD Changer
 
for $16,104 out the door (no sales tax in Oregon but inclusive of about $150 in title fee, plates and registration).
 
Got the $3,500 cash back, $1,500 GMAC financing rebate, $1000 GM relative bonus plus dealer holdback thrown in (about $750).
 
Actually would have preferred the base model without all the extras for about $2000 less but they didn't have any other LS's in stock. Didn't go for any of the extra garbage they try sell their such as paint protection, fabric protection, overpriced gap insurance (get it at one sixth the price through our regular insurance company) or an overpriced extended warranty we can get at half price directly from the source online.
 
Will be refinancing as soon as the paperwork arrives in the mail through our credit union at 4.59% for 84 months......yes seven years! Hopefully it gets done before Sept. 21 when Greenspan is set to hike rates another quater point!! Note well there is no pre-payment penalty or other penalty clause for refinancing at anytime as others have alluded to in prior posts.
 
Now its time to wait and see what new rebates they bring out on the '04s and kick myself if they are better!
