Oh well, nevermind. The closest anyone will come to $18K is 18,635 (sales tax is about 540)-- so $18,100 is the lowest they will go.

So what's the end of the story? Did you go through with the deal? What was your drive off costs? I'm in the process right now myself!

I picked it up Saturday. I was out the door at $18,100. I got it for about $17,400. I'm thrilled. The car is great!!! Other than the initial test-drive, I did all the negotiation via email. The process was touch-and-go for a while, but it worked out well. The dealership treated me exceptionally well when I entered the showroom Saturday morning.
Good luck!

Congrats on the new car purchase! It seems like it worked out in your favor. I've been suprised how smoothly negotiations have been. I guess the Saab folks really want to get those things off their lots!

From what I been reading here on the forums Saab is offering much better deals than the $1500 of December 2004. Hopefully you were able to take advantage of the $5000 discount in March. Who knows, maybe you can parlay the VW $1500 deal & the March $ 5000 together with some bare knuckle negotiating and you could drive home a popular packaged Aero for around $22K. Good Luck!

What's the current rebate? Carsdirect says it is 4500. But I'm seeing other numbers like 5000 and 5500. Thanks!

I got about $5500 (I think), plus about 1% of holdback. GM is bleeding and use that leverage. My spiel was simple: I like the car (I don't love it), and if the deal is right, I'll buy it. As of about March 1, Saab had about 376 days worth of 9-2x inventory. It's a buyer's market.

So did you get MSRP - 5500 or Invoice - 5500? A dealership offered me right off the bat 17.8k + Taxes and Tags for a manual base linear. Is that in the right range or can I move them any lower?

Sorry for my stupidity, but what's the GM "hotbutton"? Is everyone eligible for it?
