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.

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.....

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.

Employee pricing by orlando5

Why did the employee pricing change from end of July to September on Colorados? It appears GM is still advertising employee pricing but is it truly employee pricing since prices decreased approx. $700 - $1000? Employee pricing is usually a percentage off of invoice and the invoice price did not change on the colorado. Is this false advertising?
I paid approx. $800 more in July than the current employee price in September even though I purchased with a dealership that participated in employee pricing.
 
I do not think I paid what GM employees paid as there advertising goes.

I got the employee price after reviewing my contract.
 
The #14 posting is in error. No wrong doing by the dealership or GM.

Hi, my brother just bought a 2006 Chevy Colorado Regular cab, 2WD, 5-speed manual Transmission, 2.8 liter/4-cylinder. He was telling me over the phone that the MSRP on the truck is $15,330 and the Invoice price is $16,260. when he said this, i got a very bad feeling that he got taken by the salesman. I looked over my papers from the purchase of my 2004 Silverado that i bought new back in mid-2004. It had an MSRP $27,260 and the Invoice price of $24,096. I believe that the Invoice for my brothers truck includes the Factory Holdback and possibly other in-valid charges. Can anyone on this forum tell me if i am reading these numbers correctly? Should the Invoice price always be quite lower than the MSRP? I read this really good site that is very imformative. The Factory Holdback is not supposed to be included in the buyers price as it is given back to the Dealership once it sales the vehicle. Please contact me if you have any information on this issue.
 
Thanks,
 
Juan, Tampa, FL

I sell Chevys not that far from you, Invoice will always be lower than MSRP, I suspect your brother did not have his figures right. Holdback is not reflected in either MSRP or Invoice pricing, it is listed separately on the invoice. For the record, if you ask to see the invoice and the salesman refuses, you are in the wrong dealership. Today, since everyone has access to this info anyhow on the net, there is no reason not to be up front with all of this information.

Does $24,000 with $26000 OTD sound like a good price on a left over 2006 Canyon SLT 4x4 with an MSRP of about $32,000?
