What kind of % off have people been getting on 2004s?
#12 of 719 Just bought a new Maxx by oldntired1950 Jan 15, 2004 (5:44 pm)
I just signed on the dotted line yesterday for a new Maxx - an LT completely loaded with every option except the block heater - it has XM, OnStar, DVD, Leather, and on and on! The sticker with everything was $27,500 - the dealer took $1,500 off the sticker and then deducted the $1,000 rebate. I then handed the dealer another $1,000 rebate certificate that I received in the mail from GM so I ended up with $3,500 off the sticker. I don't know how good a deal this is, but I'm satisfied. The Maxx is in transit and I should be driving it by this time next week.... now, if only we can defrost here in the Northeast!
#13 of 719 How was the negotiation? by geneta Jan 15, 2004 (6:20 pm)
Hope you are pleased with your deal oldntired1950. I'm also interested in the same exact car you purchased. What was the dealer experience like? Where in the northeast? Did they wack the $1500 off before you got serious? Did they try and sell an extended warranty? What about service plans for XM and OnStar? Hope you enjoy the car, my family and I are waiting to go to the local dealer for a test drive.

A newspaper reporter is looking to interview someone who bought a car within the past six months. Please respond to jfallonedmunds.com with your daytime contact information, make and model of car, and incentives applied to the purchase by 10 AM Pacific on Friday, January 16, 2004. Thanks!

Sounds like a pretty good deal. 24k for a loaded Maxx. Hope you enjoy it.
#17 of 719 But won't be by chevyguy657 Jan 16, 2004 (9:57 am)
if GM decides to offer a $2K higher rebate this summer. GM stalwarts (like me, I thought, but guess I'm not as pro-GM as some) seem very defensive that that won't happen. I beg to differ. Check out the recent complaints in the Maxx forum re: price and cargo capacity behind the rear seats.   Also, wish you the best of luck having bought without seeing crash test results. I think you'll be OK, but GM has had some strange deviations lately....   Anyway, best of luck and congrats. Let us know how it's doing from time to time.
#18 of 719 Safety starts with the platform and works up... by logic1 Jan 16, 2004 (10:56 am)
The Maxx' platform mates, the Opel Vectra and the Saab 9-3 have very high safety ratings. In fact, the Saab earned top ratings in all categories in both the US and EU.

but the GP did miserably in tests, whereas the Impala did far better. Exact same platform. Malibu is missing chest side airbags.   $27.5 (actually I've heard of one $300 higher, so oldandtired must be missing one option) is insane for a Malibu. A Malibu? Will be worth $13-15K in a year, unless, for some strange reason, the Maxx sells like hotcakes.   Some people just have to be first, at all cost.   The Maxx concept is a good one (esp. since I dislike SUVs), but with the Equinox on the way shortly, will be VERY interesting to see if the Maxx attracts much attention. I can see younger folks and empty-nesters going for it, but not the middle of the market.
