Question about current pricing by legalsec
Jul 30, 2005 (9:12 pm)
Hi, I've been out of the market for an ION and my brother-in-law might buy one. Would someone be kind enough to explain the effect of the current GM Employee Pricing system and flex cash certificates on the prior 2003 bargaining scheme, which consisted mostly of rebates and market adjustments? Thanks in advance.

I'd wait.... by ghulet

....I just read yesterday (in the Chicago Tribune) that GM is making 'pricing adjustments' and adding equipment in some models (in lieu of 'Employee Pricing') and that the Ion2 sedan, at least, is supposed to go down in base price to something like $12490 (down almost $2500). It might be wise to wait a month til the '06s come out and see what materializes.

Thanks for the information. I'm not ready to buy yet, so I'll keep researching in the meantime.

Saw an ad in the paper Saturday for 2006 Saturns. All MSRPs were down and they were "value priced". I'm in Canada but I am sure you will see it state side also,

I loved the Saturn buying experience, but is there a new Ion replacement? by manueltrans1
Oct 30, 2005 (6:41 am)
The Saturn purchasing experience was the best experience in car purchasing I had. Now I am trying to purchase a Honda 06 Civic, it has been a month and a half of futile negotiations, and a battle of wits against a hungry bunch of sales persons whose income depends entirely on commission and how much they can get the customer paid above invoice. I have been lured into showrooms where they do not even have the car. I have given spills that I must pay premium for a factory order. I have had misleading low ball offers that balloons. I have been offered dizzy financial schemes to rip me off.
 
I long for the Saturn buying experience, but I want an improved version of the Ion.
I like the 06 Honda Civic, but I hate the buying experience at Honda Dealers.
 
Would a replacement of the Ion be coming out soon?
 
Yours Sincerely, Manny

I was looking at them. I couldn't really find what I wanted, '07 ION 3 w/2.4 auto and leather without a sunroof. And I couldn't order because they are stopping production in March. So now I'm leaning more towards the Hyundai Elantra. Seems comparable in size and price to me with the Elantra having a better interior, more standard features and better gas mileage. But that's just my personal opinion. Happy hunting!
