#29 of 64 Did I do OK? by hiedi May 24, 2005 (1:07 pm)
Good afternoon all! I've been reading the posts and just have to ask!   I bought a 2005 Saturn Vue V6 (not AWD) on March 31st of this year, so I have had it about 6 weeks or so. So far, I LOVE IT!   I traded in my 2001 Chevy Malibu LS (loaded, 45,000 miles) and the Saturn dealer gave me $7900.00 for it! Boy was I surprised, seeing how the Volkswagen dealer said $4900.00 and the Chevy dealer was a measly $5500.00!   Anyway, I leased the Saturn for $290.00 per month, no money down, 15,000 miles per year for 48 months. The Saturn has V6, power, moonroof, leather, heated seats (comfort package with power) and the Care Plan for 48 months, no deductible... I think that's it. The paperwork said something close to $26,500. According to the lease agreement, I will owe $400.00 at the end of the lease to just turn it in; that's assuming that I don't have excess wear. I can't imagine what excess wear I could get, the Malibu was in mint condition!   Did I get a deal? The deal is done, so there is no going back now... maybe I can learn something for next time?   Thanks all! Hiedi   P.S. If anyone was interested, this was in Indianapolis, Indiana.

#31 of 64 GREAT Trade In Deal by myvuesblue Dec 15, 2005 (9:25 am)
I purchased a Blue 2006 4Cyl. Vue in Las Vegas last week. It has the Chrome Skid Plate Package, and Alloy Wheels. I received a $500. Auto Show Discount, AND will be mailed out the free $500. Target Gift Card. Plus a added Internet Discount for $400. We can use at the Parts/Service Center! We traded a 2003 SR5 2WD Toyota Sequoia that ate us alive in fuel/maint. costs. Saturn of West Sahara Gave Us A Even Up Trade With NO OUT OF POCKET Money for us at all! No other dealers we asked would do it; Toyota, Dodge, GM, PLUS all low balled the trade at only 16k to 17k. They claimed that's all they could get at auction for it! Internet Sales Mgr.Gave us $19,320 New Saturn is $19,820. My wife and I both love the way it looks/rides/handles, and are REALLY Happy With The Deal We Got. Saturn Rules! Replies to this message: myvuesblue (Dec 15, 2005 11:18 am)

Replying to: myvuesblue (Dec 15, 2005 9:25 am) I forgot we also got for free; front windows deep tinted (need that here in the desert) floormats and 1 Yr OnStar. We believe the deal was really good, especially with the market for huge SUV's not being that great right now.
#33 of 64 Used 2004 VUE by martian Dec 20, 2005 (6:12 am)
I just bought a used 2004 VUE (only 6400 miles!). It is a beautiful car-everything except A/T (it is a 5 speed 4 cylinder model). I am very happy-paid $9800. plus my 2001 L100 trade-in ($4100.00). The seats are the best I've ever sat in, and it handles like a car. A weekend ski trip yield 28.5 MPG (in mostly 70 MPH driving). Plus-I have alloy wheels and TC. The ECOTEC 4 is a good engine-my 2001 went 80K miles with no problems. Way to go, SATURN!

#35 of 64 New Saturn Vue by gasa765 Aug 07, 2006 (6:46 pm)
Sounds like people are getting a pretty good deal on their Saturns. We live in southern Ca and they're offering 10% off the 06's, but nothing on the 07's. We're interested in the Saturn Vue because it's towable behind our motorhome. Was a little disappointed with the interior of the Saturn Vue especially the shortness of the seat bottoms. Didn't seem to give as much support as I would've liked. But I did like the roomy feel of the Saturn Vue and the peppiness of the V6 engine. Didn't appreciate the salesman saying they had a couple of similar models with the features I wanted at other Saturn dealerships in the area, but then neglecting to call us when he received the invoices for those vehicles. Found out a few days later from the internet manager those had already been sold! A courtesy call would've been nice, but maybe they're selling so fast they don't have time for future prospective customers. We'll still consider a Saturn Vue, but it's going to have to be a heck of a deal.
#36 of 64 supplier pricing by bxd Sep 07, 2006 (4:27 pm)
I am considering a 2007 Vue 4 cylinder. Can anyone give me a supplier price to use as a reference point? Let's say a completely stripped model with just ABS brakes perhaps?? Or any amount of options really, as long as I know what's on it I will get a good ballpark figure. Thanks! Brian

Replying to: scopus (Aug 01, 2006 9:28 am) Mind telling us how you got the $1,200 in other discounts?? Thanks. Replies to this message: scopus (Sep 11, 2006 1:15 pm)
#38 of 64 Re: New 2007 VUE [bxd] by scopus Sep 11, 2006 (1:15 pm)
Replying to: bxd (Sep 08, 2006 11:25 am) It actually ended up being $2350 in discounts. My father is a GM retiree and gets a yearly $1000 rebate (transferable). And then they offered the additional $1000 Summer bonus cash (we just lucked into this one, the Vue came in during the promotion 8/28-9/5). And the other $350 was GM Extended Family Card earnings. Final price was right around $20,500.   My wife loves her new vehicle, and I liked the price, everyone's happy.
