No kidding... you screwed up. Did you not know about the 0%/72 offer going now?
 
You should have got a 2006 for 0%/72. Are you paying interest? If you paid cash, you could have got the 0%/72 and put your $28K into a CD or online savings account making 5% APY.
 
The 2005 has probably been on the lot for almost a year not being drive. The 2006 would have cost about the same as the 2005 in the end, with a lower car payment probably.

You may be right. But then again, every incentive the car company offers, they get the money back somewhere else. So the 0%/72 months on the '06 means they have less room to discount the sticker on those cars. I think the dealers will be more resistant to bargain on the 2006s for the 72 hr deal. These guys aren't here to give away cars. That's my view.

sammyhagar, i think you are right, no way will they go so low on an 06 as an 05.
27400 including gas guzzla tax and 18s was a great price.

I think the dealer knew you really wanted that particular car. Should have at least received all the incentives you were eligible for (rebate, conquest, military, etc.).
 
You bought a two year-old car that is worth about $22K wholesale the second you left the lot with it.

Why would the dealers have less room? The car costs the dealer xxx amount of dollars, period.
The manufacturers dont(impossible) set the profit margins for dealers. The dealers have nothing to do with factory incentives. Those are set by the manufacturer.

I admit I play the car buying game pretty bad, but did check the going rate prices for my area on edmunds, kbb, autoworld, etc. The problem was I got a good feel for a fair price on a new 2006, but had to guess much more for a new leftover 2005. I think my price was 'fair' esp since I also got the neighborhood dealership, tires and color that I wanted. The only incentive advertised that applied to me on 2005s was $500, $750 or $1000 depending on which website you used. I admit I should have held out to get it, even if the dealer only gave me $500. Also, the GMCard website said you can get only $1K off a 2005 or 2006. The dealer took off my full earnings of $3400. Paid $26.9K + $270 lic/fees/docs + $2330 tax - $3400 GMCard. Walked out the door paying $26.1K.

Zero percent financing by usa2

0% financing on 72 month loan is >$6000 interest saved over the life of the loan. 2006 GTO's sell for approximately $31,000.... zero percent financing is a great deal! I missed it.
 
Any one know when it 0% is coming back?

Hey, a lot of people brag how much they overpaid for a car and even add the tax to show how "expensive" a car they bought. As the old adage goes, "Those who don't wait pay sticker." At least you're enjoying the car and still have a sense of humor.

Leftover 2005 GTO 6 speed East Coast Quote by maryowens420
Sep 20, 2006 (6:15 am)

I was just quoted 28100 on a Leftover 2005 6-speed, plus a 1000 discount for owning a non-GM car, to make the final price 27100. What do you think a leftover 2005 is worth October, 2006? I'm also thinking about holding out to see if Pontiac is going to offer 0% on remaining 2006's. Advise please!!!
