| For you to clarify,but first ....Congratulations! You are going to love the car.I just leased a 2008 Aero 4 door and as an owner driving the car on a day to day basis I am much more aware of the cars qualities than I ever was doing 5 mile test drives with clients!The last point to clarify is I suggest you ask is: if when the owners wife took the car for her personal use did they report the car as being in "loaner car" service?This is a common practice as it qualifies the vehicle for an add'l. $2,000 rebate at time of retail sale.You buy the car at an equivalent lower price than a brand new car off the showroom floor,however the factory warranty started when the car was reported as a loaner car.This should be a point you get clarification on.If the owners wife was driving the car for the Summer of '07,prior to the car being put on display for sale as a leftover '07,you may have lost as much as 9 months or more off of your 48 month warranty.Mileage on the car at time of sale to you would also count against the 50k. allowance. | |

I know I'm going to love this car. I'm only going to have it on the road from mid April to mid November, then put my 4-runner back on the road. Yes, I did receive the $2,000 loaner discount, and I did know that the warranty period will be shorter. The salesman was great and very upfront about everything. I've bought several new cars (usually end of the model year), but this negotiation was by far the easiest one. It took all of ten minutes. Also, I do know a mechanic that works there - maybe that helped! Judy |

| In the process of purchasing new 2008 9-5 with visibility and paint. negotiated with dealer to 35.5K$ so far. However, given the cash back from manufacturer I am thinking the price should be ~1.25K$ less. MSRP is 39040 without destination. Invoice is 36740-$2500 for cash back= $34,240. So it looks like 35.5K$ is too high? Do all dealers get the cash back for all models? Is there any reason not to apply the cash back discount to the purchase price? | |

Replying to: elvis2k (Feb 03, 2008 6:59 am) I'm asking because I may soon be in a similar situation with a Saab I want sitting across the country. Thanks. |
