#4 of 46 GMS VS. DIP - Which should I be looking at? by tko Jun 15, 2004 (6:59 pm)
Was at a dealer and told him that I only wanted to pay $400 over invoice - handed me a dealer search report with the MSRP, DIP and GMS figures on it. Told me that GMS is below invoice and reserved for employees or current GM owners. Is this the case? Much obliged. Replies to this message: madridjoe (Jul 18, 2004 3:18 pm)

Replying to: tko (Jun 15, 2004 6:59 pm) I sell Chevrolets in Fl. Here is the scoop   DIP = Dealer invoice price, what the dealer pays not counting holdback   Supplier price = price reserved for employees of large companies like Disney that have an arrangement with GM. Usually around invoice, sometines below.   GMS is reserved for current, and retired GM employees. It will always be below invoice, but GM makes it up to the dealer

I just took delivery on '04 Colorado Z71 4X4 in blue, crew cab with every option but Onstar. Paid invoice price ($28488) plus body molding add-on (nicer chrome $100) minus $3000 (rebate plus GMAC bonus). Came out to be a little above $27K with taxes. Plan to pay it off as soon as the payment book comes from GMAC. Did not really want XM radio, but man is it nice! Like the truck so far. Anyone have any advice on bed covers that look nice on the crew cab? How about bedliners?
#7 of 46 Don't pay it off! by madridjoe Aug 23, 2004 (3:33 pm)
Check with your dealer, you have to make at least 3 payments or lose the GMAC bonus on that rebate. Replies to this message: seversuave (Aug 24, 2004 6:05 am) madridjoe (Aug 25, 2004 5:59 pm) wallet (Aug 27, 2004 3:32 am)

Replying to: madridjoe (Aug 23, 2004 3:33 pm) Are you sure about that? One dealer told me to wait 90 days before paying it off, or the title work would get screwed up, which makes a little sense. The dealer I bought from told me that I could pay it off the minute I got my payment book. It's probably worth a call to GMAC.....I have to get the pay off amount from them anyway.

Replying to: seversuave (Aug 24, 2004 6:05 am) I sell Chevrolets in Florida, and unless it is state regulated, you will find that to avoid a penalty you need to make the first 3 payments before you pay it off. Replies to this message: wallet (Aug 27, 2004 3:32 am)

Replying to: madridjoe (Aug 25, 2004 5:59 pm) In MA, several dealers told me I could pay the note off as soon as I got the paperwork in the mail. One single dealership told me I had to wait 90 days lest GM somehow bill me for the rebate.....

Replying to: lee_w (May 12, 2004 7:39 am) We bought a 2004 Chevy Colorado today at a dealership in Northern California: extended cab, 4x4, 5cyl, 3.5L, auto, 3800mi for $19,500 cash before taxes & fees. Has premium sound, CD, XM radio, OnStar, alum. whls, power windows & locks, sliding rear window. Dealer price was $23,995. Purchase experience was easy.
#12 of 46 Crew Cab Z71 LS 1SE 4WD by sbmackie Feb 20, 2005 (10:17 am)
Supplier discount $26,014. Got some front tint and a bed liner for $100 to close deal. Dealer fee (couldn't negotiate it away) $150, so $26,264. Less $4k in rebates...so $22,264 plus tax and license.(I am active duty military so got another $500 in rebates). Dealers agent was good, dealership management a pain. Used GMAC financing for one month, then paid off with credit union (4% for 5 years 50% loan to value) The credit guy at the dealership said it was a convenience issue with title work; no penalty for early payoff.
