Shoulda coulda woulda. You can't beat yourself up that prices changed after you bought your car. As long as your happy with what you got at the time you bought it, you did OK.

Saab has an offer right now - $250/mo lease on the '05 linear. I thought I was going to walk in there, plop-down my $3K inception and sign on the line for $250 monthly payments. Am I being naiive? Do I need to crunch numbers and try to wrangle a better deal? I've never leased before . . .

I saw that deal for 24 months. It also assumes an msrp of $27,570 (10k per year), which is pretty much a stripped down model that they probably have very few if any in stock. I would suggest contacting the dealer and finding their money factor and residual and crunch the numbers yourself. See how much you have to subtract from the msrp to get to the advertized lease expense. That will give you and idea of how much the dealer is making and if there is room to do better. Also, try running the numbers assuming a different msrp (auto/prem package/heated seats) and see what happens. When I did a deal Mar 9th the money factor was .00011 which is about 0.26%.
 
Good luck.

Is This a Good Quote for a 9-3 Arc? by novice1

Been on the fence for buying a new car for sometime (dislike my 4 cylinder Camry). Hate car payments and whole car buying experience. Anyway I live in SF Bay Area. Been offered the following. Is this a good deal? Has anyone else done better? Going back to dealer tomorrow. Deal good thru 3/31.
 
2005 Arc, Driver Package $29,995
2005 Arc, No Drivers Package $28,500
 
0% Financing for 2 years.
Was told that this was $4K of MSRP.
Forgot to ask if this comes with sunroof.

Novice1,
 
What else does that include: Heated seats? Xenons? Automatic or manual? You can compare with mine: automatic trans, sunroof, metallic paint, and heated seats for $30,000 before tax. It was about $500 over invoice for me. I purchased in late December 2004.
 
Also, that 0% financing is pretty good. How much is the interest rate after those 2 years? I'm doing 4.6% for 4 years on mine.

$4000 sounds like a lot.. But, Saab puts big incentives on their cars..
 
Check with Car_man on this board, and he can let you know the incentives available on your model..

It doesn't sound like you know a lot about this car.. I'd want to know the exact MSRP and options... Your description sounds a little vague.. This is a large purchase.. make sure of what you are buying.

March Madness Saab Deals by gryhndmom02

I missed the March Madness deal by one day. Purchased my new Linear on 2/28, but still got it for $3500 under invoice. I got an automatic, fully loaded with metalic paint, and added front fogs, and paid $26,445. I got the GM incentive deal through my employer, plus some other rebate on top of it. In all, I think it was a pretty good deal.
