#755 of 763 June 2011 Malibu Incentives by dsatterw8

So what are you all seeing from dealers for incentives on 2011 Malibu's. I'm looking for an LTZ.
 
Went through the AAA website and got three quotes from Cleveland (OH) dealers at 3,300 below invoice, which I think includes a 2,000 incentive and maybe 1,000 in factory to dealer incentives passed on to me.
 
Will be trying to push dealers lower before buying within next week or so. I'd like to get them to 4,000 below invoice including all incentives and such.
 
Woul like to know if anyone knows how low they will go?

MSRP 2011 Malibu LTZ, 4 Cyl, Red ext, Cocoa/Cashmere Int
    STANDARD VEHICLE PRICE*: $27,015.00
    $325.00 RED JEWEL TINTCOAT
    $100.00 COMPACT SPARE TIRE
             (REPLACES TIRE SEALANT AND
             INFLATOR KIT)
 
    TOTAL OPTIONS: $425.00
    TOTAL VEHICLE & OPTIONS: $27,440.00
    DESTINATION CHARGE: $760.00
    TOTAL VEHICLE PRICE* : $28,200.00 MSRP
 
Went to www.lovemycreditunion.com and registered. Must be a credit union member of a participating credit union. Then went to the GM site it referred me to.
 
Once registered on the GM site, I was sent a pin to give to the dealer. The dealer asked for proof of my affiliation and once satisfied, pulled out the invoice and showed me the Credit Union price which is just below invoice (about $80).
 
The best part here is there was no negotiating. The price was fine, and the dealer can not add a dealer fee which in Southeast Florida ranges $599-$999. They are allowed to charge a $75 administrative fee and that's it.
 
My car had a dealer addendum sticker with a bunch of mark-up BS, but he was not allowed to charge me for them (Nitro Fill, Pinstripe, and door guards).
 
SO----
GM Price---$27259 (non-negotiable)
Admin fee $75
-$2000 Rebate
-$1000 Dealer Cash (Thanks Edmunds for letting me know to ask for his cash)
+Taxes & Registration.
 
After a $2500 trade-in, with all taxes/fees/registration----->$23578.00
 
Picking it up this weekend and can't wait. First GM car purchase in 15 years. Hope they got better.

2011 Malibu LTZ
Red Tintcoat (extra cost paint)

Actually got a lower email quote from Sterling Chevrolet a day after purchase, which was $200 less than this price.

Actually, the "new" Malibu will be considered a 2013. Chevy will be selling 2012's with the "old" bodystyle until the 2013's arrive in early to mid Calendar Year 2012
