Replying to: jfritsch (Apr 09, 2009 9:56 am) jjf, will you give us specific dealer names where the $7k + discounts are available? I don't see anything like that here in Sacramento. Thanks. Replies to this message: jfritsch (Apr 19, 2009 6:39 am)

Replying to: ddombrowski1 (Apr 17, 2009 9:33 am) was that the out the door price...or still have to add Tax, title and tags to that price?

Replying to: sierra95831 (Apr 16, 2009 7:10 pm) These are from newspaper ads in the southern Ohio area the last few months. Read my last 4-5 posts. The Malibu's Saturn twin has a used 08 trade in value of about 13000 with avg miles. The near twin 08 Pont g6 about 11000. Hyundai Sonata 08 (20400 msrp)gls about $11000. 08 mazda6 12000. Chev 08 impala ls (msrp 24000) $10500 trade in . .   You want at least a 15000 deal on a 22000msrp 09 malibu. Probably 13000 or so on a G6. Especially with Gm's situation. If you can't make it happen email 10 or more mazda dealers last week of the month (mazdausa.com website) for bids on a new 09 M6. Better car.   Good luck --jjf    will you give us specific dealer names where the $7k + discounts are available? I don't see anything like that here in Sacramento. Thanks.
#678 of 719 Still no specific information by sierra95831 Apr 19, 2009 (4:36 pm)
jjf: Generalities aren't much help, especially in response to a request for specific information. I've read all of your recent posts. I did that before I asked my question. I have not seen any Ohio dealers advertising the deals you say you've seen. So my question is simply, "Where are you seeing these deals?" Please share this information with the rest of us.   Telling me what I "need" to get on a Malibu because of what the trade-in value might be doesn't help me find the great deals you've reported.

jjf:..just curious what you do.....are you a car dealer?....most of your messages are cut and paste on the same issues across the board.....Scion, Honda, Hyundai, and the Chevy forum here....   IMO no dealer is going to enter a car negotiation deal based on what the car is going to be worth in a year....depreciation is a fact of life on a car the second it rolls off the lot......if you are trading cars every 2-3 years...then yes.....it may be a factor....and your are definitely losing money..(again my opinion) if someone is doing that....most people today I beleive consider an auto purchase a long term investment (5-7 years at a min) and dont worry about trade in value.....I for one dont...as I tend tor drive the cars until they are not worth the effort or expense to repair anymore......   most dealers are willing to work at our slightly above invoice, and then add in the incentives ongoing at the time.....the Malibu seems to be a seller for GM right now just as the CTS is, paper ads are one thing, but getting into the dealer and getting that number is another.....

Replying to: pao (Apr 20, 2009 7:13 am) I agree with you. I've seen the so called "screamer" ads in the newspaper listing a vehicle for a low price however when you arrive you find that either the vehicle isn't available or there are added "fees" associated with the vehicle. At any one time a person may get lucky and get a great deal on a vehicle and post it on here giving people the false impression that everyone will get that same deal in their market but the reality is not everyone will get that same price in their market. I've seen cases where posts have been made listing a great price however the dealership is never named making me wonder if there is more to the story than is being told.

Replying to: fpinho (Mar 29, 2009 8:31 am) I purchased exactly the same car, used a GM employee discount which took it to 26100 roughly then took 0% financing vs. any additional rebates. If I did do rebates I was only offered 2750 off, which would be 23,350.   Curious could you break down your 6750 in rebates?

Replying to: luckycat007 (Apr 28, 2009 7:54 am) Hi,   The 6750.00 consists of:   1250.00 Rebate 1500.00 Rebate 2000.00 Lease Rebate 1000.00 GM Card Earnings   500.00 Auto Show Rebate   500.00 Some kind of dealer rebate they through in -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6750.00   The incentives this month are worse than last month and I think they will get even worse going forward due to inventory being adjusted.

#683 of 719 new Malibu by jameskk1 Apr 29, 2009 (6:15 pm)
I just purchased a loaded LTZ in Black Granite.. loaded meaning it has the 6cyl engine and rear power package ($30K sticker).. I made an offer of $24,500 and the dealer accepted. In the end I decided to do the 0% financing so they added back the $2750 but I came out with lower monthly payments doing this. Was offered to ext. the base warranty to 6yr. 60,000 miles for an extra $13/mo. so I did it as well. I shopped around for about a month and this was the best deal I got. Another dealer told me that I should take this deal because there was no way that he could sell that car for $24,500. So far I am really liking it. The handling is good but the ride could be a bit better.. of course, I am coming from a Mercedes S500 which is probably the best riding car on the road.
