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.

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?

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.-

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.

I bit, and bought a 9-3 convertible on 6/30 for $0 down, 0% finance over 60 months. I paid $37,850 for a 9-3 Arc convertible with auto tranny, cold weather package and steel gray metallic paint. Price included $500 off for loyalty (was trading in a Saab lease) and they bought out my last lease payment ($340) and, of course, waived the disposition fee on the lease car. Price was in line with Edmunds TMV price.
I wanted a manual tranny, but part of the 0% deal was taking what was on the lot. I am quite happy with the car, but the $685/month payments are still going to be a lot to swallow. We ran the numbers on taking the $2000 cash, and going with standard financing (6.9%), and the finance charges would have been about $3100, so went with the 0%.
In my case, the 0% promo worked. I had originally gone to the dealership to just buy my old Saab 2002 9-5 Linear off lease, but the 0% was too good to pass up.
Love the convertible!

I bought a 9-3 SportCombi on 6/5 and got the 0.0% financing. At the end of the day it is too good to pass up, and I figured there aren't going to be any more 2006s coming so the time is now. We paid $31,400 for a 2.0T with AT, Cold, Premium, and sunroof. A few hundred more than TMV but they accommodated us nicely in finding the exact car we wanted. Also I got (what I think is) a good deal on my trade.

I went with the 0% for 60 months deal and bought a chili red metallic 93 2.0T with cold weather, automatic, premium package, moon roof for 29,436 before tax, title and doc fee. It turns out to be around 800 under invoice so I was happy with the deal. I had a friend who got his Saab 1800 under invoice but they werent offering the 0% deal at the time. So I feel that eventhough I was closer to the invoice price that in the long run (finance charges) I have a better deal. I have had my car now for about 5 days and I have to say I love everything about it! It is fun, not flashy, safe, unique looking and fast!

My local Saab dealer has an automatic, incl.power sunroof, available with 2000 miles. His preliminary offer is $26,800. What do you feel is decent price for this vehicle or is this a good deal?
Thanks in advance.
