I'm looking to take advantage of the 0% for 60 months on a leftover 07 Sierra 1500. With a sticker of $38165.00, how much off can I expect to get? |

Hi everyone, Recently my father remarried and his new mother in law works for gm. I am buying my first "new" truck and was offered a gms discount from my new step grandmother. Today I went to the dealership and found a 2008 silverado with crew cab and the 1 lt package. It has a v8, onstar and satilite radio. The window sticker was $28,880. After talking to the sales manager at the dealership I was given a price if 25,510. I can choose an extra $1000 rebate or take 3.9% finacing for 60 months. I have been reading the forums for a few days now and I am starting to think that maybe if I forget about the gms and just go in as a regular buyer I may be able to negotiate a lower price. Am I overthinking this to much or is the price a little bit high for a "Employee Discount". This is my first really big purchase and I really dont want to get ripped off. Any input would be appreciated. thanks

I have been looking at a 2008 crew cab 2 wheel drive loaded truck for MSRP $36,660.00. I have got the dealer to go to $1000.00 below invoice. $33,300.00. Is tis a good deal or should I get more. The above prices are with no rebates applied taking the 1.9% apr thanks Nick

Replying to: ngunter (Nov 27, 2007 1:33 pm) I can put a posi, pdl and power front windows (not the back door windows) and a decent stereo in a $25k msrp WT work truck pretty cheap, so even an absolute base work truck package would be acceptable. However, I believe that the $7k msrp price difference between the $32k msrp LT2 and $25k WT package will potentially be somewhat smaller in reality as I think there is a lot of markup in the LT2 "stuff". Besides, who in their right mind would buy a longbed LT2? So, what should I realisticallly expect to knock off of the $32k msrp LT2, and the $25k msrp WT? Would it help to use a "inflated" trade in to allow the dealer to "save face" over the real price, or am I overthinking this? I appreciate the help, hope to make a buy this week. Regards, Skip

Replying to: jackel142 (Nov 15, 2007 4:19 pm) It is a 6.0 liter with the 20" wheel package, seems to be the only one within 500 miles. I have them down to approx $34000.00 so far. I don't think that is much below invoice. Any idea of what the dealer holdback on an 07 with a sticker of $38165.00 is?

Replying to: jackel142 (Dec 26, 2007 10:43 am) If not go to a quiet restauraunt, get some coffee, review their "final" deal-- taxes, doc fees, the payments etc., talk to spousey. Hit them with a counter over the cell phone for 3% less and see what you can work. Then go across the street and get your car. They may have the edge with a unique leftover silverado but end of year and month sales pressure can be intense. Good luck --jjf With only a couple days left in the 0% for 60 month deal, I'll be taking one more run at the 07 Silverado.

A previous poster asked this question and I don't think it has been answered, so I wanted to ask again, is GMS pricing (employee) the best possible price? I ask because my dad (the GM employee) has always been under the impression that it was, but in the past when I have car-shopped, the price hasn't seemed very impressive, but I've never seen evidence that you could get a car for cheaper. What do you think? I bargained pretty effectively (I think) for my Honda Accord so I am willing to bargain if it will get me a better price, but if I'm wasting my time, I'd like to know that and save the hassle. Thanks in advance!
