Lease Incentives vs. GM Discount on 9-3 by chgogirl
Jun 29, 2005 (8:52 am)
Reply
I checked the Saab website yesterday about the GM discount and final cost of the 9-3 Linear, the price is listed as $22681 with the GM discount - does anyone know if this includes the lease incentives that the dealers are offering? Or should I subtract the $2500-4500 from the $22681? And, how can I find out how much the lease incentives really are?
 
I visited a dealer yesterday in Central New Jersey that quoted me the following:
 
Initial Cap Cost $24,872 (Including auto trans and heated seats, and supposedly after discounts and incentives)
Bank Fee $795
Registration $230
Doc Fee $169
 
$753.88 down/$347.38 per month for a 36 month/10,000 mile lease
 
Does this sound okay? By the way, I need your advice quickly, I'm leaving for another dealership at 2:00 eastern.
 
Thanks!

I believe the 22681 is with the purchase incentive. The incentive is 1000 more when you lease.

Anyone have luck getting the GM Employee Discount applied to add-ons / packages? (i.e paint, moonroof, auto trans, drivers package, etc)

Yes!! They have to apply the discount to the add-ons. You can call Saab directly to get the discounted prices, just so you're prepared when you start negotiating with the dealer!

Great advice! Thanks! Called 1-800-SAAB-USA & they gave me discount prices for all features I'm interested in. Good to know, as a dealer quoted me on a 9-3 ARC only applying GM employee discount to base msrp!

Weedy which NY dealer did you get your deal from? Sounds quite good. The best I've managed pre-negotiation is $349 on a linear with manual transmission and no other options.

Certified Saab Price Negotiable or Not by arncas

My daughter (21) found a certified Saab at a local deal in Aurora, IL. She asked to make an offer on the car and was told that "Certified Saab prices are not negotiable." Is that true?

9-3 linear lease by roadrunner6
Jul 04, 2005 (7:35 am)

have been negotiating a lease on a 93 linear (auto, heated seats) with a dealer. Cap cost after emp pricing and rebates works out to 23,489. Accdg to my calcs a 36 mo lease with 0 down (except reg etc. ) works out to aprroximately $329/mo. including tax 6%, and interest 3% - does this seem right?
 
The delaer is quoting me a residual of 47% on MSRP (36month, 12K lease), this seems low to me. Thought it should have been 49%.
 
Would appreciate if someone could run the numbers on the above and see if the above makes sense, also what about the residual. Is this arbitrarily decided by the dealer, or is there a specifc source that I can refer to that gives me the residual value. BTW, I noticed the SAAB deal on a linear advertised on SAAB's website for a 24mo. lease, is based on a residual of 57% after 2 years??
 
Thanks in advance for the help...

Residuals are set by the bank.. the dealer can't change them. And, they are based on the MSRP, so if the selling price is substantially lower than MSRP, then you can bet that the residuals will be low, also..
 
What is the MSRP of the car you are looking at?
