#166 of 653 Re: Made a deal today [kyfdx] by ktrue Jul 08, 2005 (10:09 am)
Replying to: kyfdx (Jul 07, 2005 12:58 pm) Actually, the only money the girl next to me put down was a $500 fee they charged...and that's it!   I don't know where you are getting your info from, but when you look up the residual value of these cars on NADA and KBB, they are quite high. Usually around $16, 000 and up. So after we are paying off more than our use of the car, they are selling it for 16 grand still. The "wholesale" value as you call it is actually quite high on these! So I don't think I am "over estimating" what the car will be worth!   SO therefore, I am sticking with my original claim....that we are getting ripped off!

Replying to: ktrue (Jul 08, 2005 10:09 am) KBB and NADA won't buy your car... So, their numbers are just pie in the sky..    The bank doesn't sell your car to someone for $16K.. They sell the car wholesale. either through an auction.. or directly to your dealer.. Your dealer then re-sells the car.. They have to make a profit on it... They won't buy it from the bank for $16K, then sell it for $16K..   If you feel you are being ripped off, then go elsewhere.. You know the terms of the deal upfront.. How can that be a ripoff?
#168 of 653 Saab 9-3 aero lease by ern16 Jul 13, 2005 (1:39 pm)
Hi. I posted this on the Car Leasing Fourm, but I thought somebody here might have some insight.   I am looking into leasing a 2005 Saab 9-3 aero under GM's current "everyone gets the employee discount" offer. The sell price of the car w/ all options except navi is $30300, which I think is good. However, the MF they quoted me on a 36 mo, 12k mi/yr lease was .00212. Does anyone know if they can bring this down? I'm looking for something closer to 0.0013. Has anyone leased with Saab under the current deal? Thanks.
#169 of 653 Just leased one by cpa_howard Jul 14, 2005 (12:27 pm)
Hi! I just leased one 93 linear in Santa Ana, CA. My car with auto trans w/ moonroof and metalic paint. I paid $5000 down and $307 for the remaining 35 months w/15,000 miles every year. Is it a good deal? Actually, I just moved to us and my credit history is not enough long. So I think the dealer could lease to me is very good. Nice car, I liked it Replies to this message: blane1417 (Jul 15, 2005 7:00 am) blane1417 (Jul 15, 2005 7:01 am) schoup (Jul 24, 2005 2:01 pm)
#170 of 653 Anyone have any feedback on this deal by blane1417 Jul 15, 2005 (7:00 am)
Replying to: cpa_howard (Jul 14, 2005 12:27 pm) I am looking at a 9-3 ARC with heated seats, moonroof.   I am being quoted $ 30,167. Seems high to me. The lease I'm being quoted is as follows:   $1443 upfront to cover tax, title, license, acq fee and 1st mo payment. $393/month for 36 months. Residual 49%, MF= .00155. There is also $3k lease support.   MF seems low, however, i think the price of the car seems high.... anyone have an opinion? thanks in advance Replies to this message: blane1417 (Jul 15, 2005 7:01 am) schoup (Jul 24, 2005 2:01 pm)

#172 of 653 Saab 9-3 Linear Price in NJ by fatray Jul 20, 2005 (7:44 am)
Just had a question. Was quoted $26,100 for a 9-3 linear with automatic, sunroof, and heated front seats with TTL extra. However, was also told about GMAC Smartbuy, which in the end would bring the total payments to $23,500, basically paying around $350 per month for 36 months, $1000 down, with a payoff of about $10,000 with the final payment. I don't know much about the GMAC Smartbuy, but that is almost an additional $3000 off?!?! Any thoughts. I was ready to just finance the $26,100, which I think is a good price. Is that a good deal too? Replies to this message: kyfdx (Jul 20, 2005 7:52 am)

Replying to: fatray (Jul 20, 2005 7:44 am) Just guessing.. but, it is possible that the interest rate on the Smartbuy is fairly high... like maybe 7.9%.. and so, they give an additional rebate for signing up for that interest rate, which is then deducted from the sale price..   You'd have to do the math, to see which is the better deal..   Can you turn your car in at the end of the 36 months.. just like a lease? If so, that wouldn't be a bad way to go...   regards, kyfdx

Replying to: blane1417 (Jul 15, 2005 7:00 am) If those are the only options that price is high the MSRP for what you listed is $32,670 including destination. Take the MSRP and knock off 9.1% that gives you the GM employee price then take the rebate of $2000 off and that is a initail quote...then start your negotaition. From what I've been getting as quotes that's how it seems to be working. The Residual of 49% and money factor are good. Also, watch how they are calculating your cap cost, some dealers will try to screw you with that if you don't know what your doing
#175 of 653 Got my 9.3 SS by Hacksaw Jul 30, 2005 (6:28 am)
Here's my breakdown on the 9.3 Linear:   $24331 - car (new with only 7 miles) $1283 - auto $452 - metallic paint (smoked beige -- looks gray) $430 - heated seats $1032 - moonroof $850 - dest & dealer fee ($720 dest + $130 prep) SubTotal = $28378 LESS $2500 rebate on purchase (Pennsylvania) Total = $25878 + tax/tags   We financed $20k with payments of $377/mo for 5 years.   There wasn't much availability on th 9.3 and dealers are few and far between here. They weren't willing to negotiate beyond the employee price nor did they try to tack on any extra fees (the $850 is what's specified by GM).
