#6 of 49 Question about Add-ons? by nowarranty Feb 04, 2004 (7:48 am)
I was thinking about getting A Saturn considering their current 2500 rebate offer but had a question about their No-Haggle pricing: I stopped by the Lot and was surprised (LOL, should I be, they are a car dealer!) to see $1000 Mark-up for the typical "Fabric Protection, tinting, etc." and was wondering if THIS padding was negotiable or if the No-Haggle applies to that as well. Thanks.

When I bought my ION last year, they did not have these. When I was there last month for service, I noticed a bunch of these stickers. I would tell them I'm not paying it and leave. They are added profit and I'm sure they will not let you walk off the lot if you really want to buy an ION. Good luck!

I thought they might have added these additional mark-ups to offset the Big rebate. This was the first time I ever looked at the No-haggle Saturns and was surprised by this additional sticker which is usually reserved for haggling at other dealers. Thank you.

Keep us informed on the Saturn ION thread about how it's going.

$2500 rebate? Is this regional?
#11 of 49 the old trick by kurtamaxxguy Feb 13, 2004 (4:20 pm)
Yes, Saturn does try to practice the no haggle pricing, but the big "gotcha" is when they pack the car with dealer added accessories like tinted windows, dub wheels, and other stuff you may not want. The only way around this dealer nonsense is to order a car that's not on the floor and make them promise in writing they will not pack the car before delivery.   I've seen Ions jacked up nearly $6000 with this overpriced junk. Anyone wanna bet the Redlines will not only have no rebate but be packed with any and every possible extra???   Also keep in mind Saturn is no longer its own enitity, but is now just another GM division. How long they can resist the usual showroom garbage remains an unanswered question. Replies to this message: sman290 (Feb 06, 2005 11:00 am) Sylvia (Feb 06, 2005 7:14 pm)

the $2500 is only for cash buying, it should be at all dealers. If you want there is a 0% (yeah right) and $1500 bonus cash offer as well. I think it goes until the end of the month (2/29)
#13 of 49 0% APR query by legalsec Jul 13, 2004 (5:22 am)
Greetings!   I have seen a lot of remarks regarding the 0% APR, that is, people seem to guffaw as if its existence is as likely as a unicorn's.   Is my perception right? If so, why is that? I got 0% APR when I bought my ION2 last July; however, I probably had a number of things working in my favor.   Just wondering what the fuss is about.

I received 0% APR on my ION purchased last year as well.
