The prices listed on the website for the remaining two LTZ was what was listed when I first looked at their site ($22,524). I called and spoke with a Salesman, Aaron, and he said that they had recently listed those three cars for $21,999 in an ad in the D&C and that was their bottom line. As it turned out my son had a swim meet in bath that night so I made arrangements to test drive the car that day since I was traveling down in that direction. Up until that point I had pretty much decided on a Hyundai Sonata Limited that I had priced out in Buffalo for $20k and had every intention of buying after Christmas. Up to that point, I preferred the test drive of Malibu but the best I could do locally was $21.3k for a LT1, 4 cylinder 6 speed with sunroof, vs. the Sonata that was loaded. All that changed when I drove the 6 cylinder LTZ, I liked it much better than the Sonata and knew if I bought the Hyundai, at some point I would have regrets that I didn't stretch for the Malibu. I had no intention of committing that night, but they were obviously motivated and while they were very ridged on the price, they asked me to think about what it would take, and to let them know. I discussed it with my wife that night and decided if they could get the price down to $21,500, I would commit to it. Working with Aaron, I was able to get the price down to $21,700 and they absorbed $200 of the fees, bottom to me was the same as a my asking price. I drove down and picked up the car that Saturday, it was as painless and pleasant a transaction that I could have hoped for, and was, I believe a great deal on a great car. I've had it for a little over a week and am thrilled with it. It certainly would be worth a call, and defiantly worth a drive if you could save the amount i did over local dealers. Aaron and the finance person were the only people I dealt with, but I can vouch for the fact that they were very straightforward in my dealings and I would certainly use them again. Good luck. |

Replying to: mickey77 (Jan 02, 2009 4:51 pm) Call me crazy but when I was on the GM site tonight it appears that they raised the rebates from $1000 to $1250. (dated Jan-2, today) Would I have found out about this before the dealer? |

the name of the dealer here in hallandale, fla is billkelley chevrolet.however,before i commit to the malibu i also want to check out the new 09 mazda 6 which has the same msrp as the malibu and is a much better equiped car.i seriously doubt though if the mazda dealer can match the internet quote i recieved for the malibu of 16,250.00..plus TTT...the mazda 6 is in much higher demand than the malibu and overall is a much better equiped car for the money but we'll see what they say.
