Replying to: ktrue (Jul 08, 2005 10:09 am) 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? |

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. |

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

Replying to: cpa_howard (Jul 14, 2005 12:27 pm) 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

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?

Replying to: fatray (Jul 20, 2005 7:44 am) 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 |

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). |

| I am looking to buy a 05 'Arc. The price of an Arc on GM's website under the Employee Pricing Program (Which has been strecthed till the 6th of Sept) is $26,253. Does anyone know whether any additional dealer rebates are still available (the $2,500 rebate mentioned in earlier posts)? What are the chances of picking up one below the Employee Price? | |
