I think that the price is good. I paid about $5000 more. Remember, however, that we are in August and the car is out of production. The 2008's are currently being built. That means that it is essentially a "leftover".
If your plan is to hold onto the car for a long while, then the deal is sweet. If you change vehicles every few years, then it is not such a great bargain, in my opinion.
Good Luck whatever your decision.

Hi Dallas Dealer,
I was interested if you could give me some pointers on how to track down overstock deals of this nature. The dealers in my area act like they don't really need to mark anything down. I would love to hear 60k car marked down to 45 or something similar. Thanks for the tips.

#69 of 96 2006 Escalade ESV and Depreciation

We have our eyes on a fully loaded (Nav, DVD Players, 20" wheels, etc) that is being offered to us at $51,500 OTD, including a 5 year/75K mile Major Guard warranty. The vehicle has 6500 miles and was a lease return. Two questions: 1) Does this sound like a good deal?
2) We plan on keeping this for about 3-4 years. Since it's the last year of the older body style, do you think we'd be better off paying about $6K more and getting an 07 with similar miles?
Thanks for any help on this.

We are thinking about buying FULLY loaded (22" Chrome) 2008 ESV for $63K with an MSRP at $71,000 in Houston area. Is that a better price? Would greatly appreciate if anyone can share their experience of ESV for 2007 and/or 2008 model(s).
Thanks

Yesterday, I purchased a black on black fully loaded 2007 2WD Escalade. It was the manager's demo and has 7k miles. However, it is still considered a brand new car since it has never been titled. I am receiving the full warranty. Here are the options the vehicle has:
Information Package (Navigation)
Rear Entertainment Package (DVD)
22" Chrome Wheels
Power Release 2nd Row Seats
Rearview Camera System
The MSRP was $64,720 and I purchased it for $56,100 plus tax, tag, title, and dealer fee ($600). I also got 0% interest for 5 years and free maintenance for 3 years. How did I do?

Bought mine in July:
Information Package (Navigation)
Rear Entertainment Package (DVD)
18" Chrome Wheels
Power Release 2nd Row Seats
did the whole deal via email from a dealer in CT. It was a used 07 (Caddy Exec Vehicle) with 9k miles. In-service date was Feb07
Paid $52k

Im going to be buying a cadillac in the next week. i got a really good deal on an escalade and i want to know how reliable they are. First of all im 19, money isnt thin, but i dont want to spend an unreasonable amount on maintenance and all. I can get a 2000 Escalade with 60k miles for $13k with a 1 year warranty. Is it worth it and when will it start giving me problems if any?
Thx

Why are you considering a Cadillac at age 19? It's not the money issue that concerns me, but the lack of driving experience. I would suggest putting on a couple of hundred thousand miles on a mich cheaper & smaller automobile. New drivers make mistakes. It takes a while to have gone through lots of complex situations before you should tackle a large automobile.
I have owned over 57 cars in my life, so far, and feel that I probably have gone though just about every potential crrisis situation. Trust me - it's worth the wait, You will appreciate the Cadillac more later on.
