Chevy, Cadillac, GMC and Buick will survive. Good-bye Saturn, Pontiac and Saab.
 
I am sure if you buy any GM car and GM survives , you will be able to get service at any GM dealership. I could take my Olds Aurora to any Chevrolet dealer and get it services after Olds closed. It was actually kind of nice because the nearest Olds dealer was another 5 miles away.

Chevy, Cadillac, GMC and Buick will survive.
 
That seems to be the most widespread opinion these days, and I can see
a model or two in almost each one of the brands above -- a model that
can give the brand at least a small chance of survival, e.g. Malibu
and Silverado for Chevy. But Buick? Which Buick model makes that
make a candidate for survival? Or you think it can be a winner in,
say, China, without a single model being at least slightly ahead of
the competition?
 
Good-bye Saturn, Pontiac and Saab.
 
Pontiac, on the other hand, has Vibe, G6, G8 and Solstice, which are,
at least, interesting.

I would love to see Pontiac make it here over Buick. But, as you said , Buick is big in China. I don't think any of the Chinese model are sold here, so why can't GM just do what Datsun\Nissan do and just change Buicks name to Pontiac in China.
 
I think even if Pontiac goes away the G8 and Solstice will be transferred over to Chevy. I heard GM was selling it's stake in the joint venture with Toyota. So the Vibe will be discontinued.

09 Malibu LS base + side moldings + mats by famus

Hi,
Is $18500 OTD a good price for a new 09 Malibu LS base + side moldings + mats? MSRP is $21650. It's in California with 7.75% sales tax. Thanks a lot!

No! Anything beyond $17,250 OTD is too much. By the way, a good way to upgrade is to buy the base LS and install after market (Katzkin) leather. That's what we did and we are extremely satisfied with the result. It only cost $1,300 more for the two-tone cocoa/cashmere combo.

Thanks. But the three dealers I went to would not lower even to $18300 OTD. Some insisted on selling at over $19000 OTD. And that's the low LS model. How can I make a good deal? Now it will very near the end of the year, will I get a better price? Thanks.

Just some food for thought. $18.5K OTD for a 2009 Base LS Malibu is pretty good. Comparing it to other base midsize sedans, that is a really good price. I bought a Accord LX automatc (base) for $20K OTD less then a year ago. Resale value is another factor to consider. How long will you keep the car?
 
The new Malibu has held its value better then previous Malibu's, if you check on kbb. On the other hand, I have seen used 2008 Malibu LT1 and LT2 going for $18.5K OTD with about 10-15K miles on them. Something to consider. If you plan on keeping the car for a long time (over 5 years), I say go for the deal.
 
Regardless, the Malibu is a very nice car.

$18.5K is the best I am getting. I am heading out now to buy it.
