#247 of 652 well by dhanley Jun 21, 2006 (7:26 am)
It does cost something for the dealer to advertise and prep the car, and to do a swap. So while there is profit there, i doubt it's pure profit.   Also, don't forget that there is holdback:   http://www.edmunds.com/advice/incentives/holdback/index.html   The dealer does have to make a little money-that have to maintain the dealership, finance the cars, and buy food.   All i can say is it's hard to know when to buy a car and for how much. If you love the car and don't want to wait forever, you may have to leave a few bucks on the table. Replies to this message: hgershman (Jun 27, 2006 12:58 pm)

Replying to: angy168 (Jun 21, 2006 5:49 am) Any and all charges on the invoice are from the manufacturer to the dealer and an intrinsic part of what they pay to the manufacturer.They are NOT profit, they are dealer costs and have to be added to where you begin your bottom line negotiations.

Replying to: saablcp (Jun 29, 2006 7:33 am) Thanks for the info. A dealer actually faxed me the invoice sheet from Saab which lists all the fees, so they are paying the ad fee & prep fee. BUT since they are very eager to move this car off their lot by 6/30 (quarter end), they offer to split the holdback. So I got my price below the invoice and into part of the holdback. Since the car (the color & 5 speed) is getting harder to find (lots of dealers are out of it) so I closed the deal (over the phone since they are 300 miles away) and will pick it up this Saturday, right on time with the holiday weekend. Bottom line is - know what car you're looking for, locate the dealer that have the exact car sitting in their lot and strike the deal by month end AND quarter end.

#253 of 652 0% APR for 72 months by allysonz Jun 29, 2006 (6:32 pm)
GM now has a deal for 72 hours in some states and some counties for 0% for 72 months. That is a great deal. I am also guessing that i can subtract the 2k off the invoice price of the car too. If they dont have the car in the lot I wonder if they order it if I will still get the 0% for 72 months? I am guessing yes if I sign a contract within the 72 hours of this deal. Am I right?

Replying to: allysonz (Jun 29, 2006 6:32 pm) Sorry to say you are wrong on all counts... Saab 0% is only up to 60 mos. and cannot be combined with the $2,000 which is now considered customer cash not dealer cash It is strictly an either/or proposition.You cannot order a car and lock in the promotion ,you must be signed ,sealed and delivered by end of business 07/05.- Replies to this message: joezperry (Jun 30, 2006 9:06 am) allysonz (Jul 01, 2006 11:18 am) spidaman (Jul 06, 2006 6:52 pm) allysonz (Jul 08, 2006 2:04 pm)

Replying to: saablcp (Jun 30, 2006 7:21 am) You are right it is 0% only up to 60 months. However, I did get quoted (with my choice options) around 1,000 dollars under invoice price (with the 0% APR deal). I think this may be the best deal I can get. I called around and other dealers in the area cant beat it. Replies to this message: spidaman (Jul 06, 2006 6:52 pm) allysonz (Jul 08, 2006 2:04 pm)
