This seems awfully high. What is the MSRP?
 
I might be wrong, though... You do have a lot of options..

I've read exactly that in another thread..
 
It is the GM employee price, but not the GM employee purchase program.. and, GM card $$ can be used..
 
Just what I've heard...

I’m getting the Linear because the Aero requires 93 gasoline. The Linear will work on 87. The way gas prices are these days it just doesn’t pay. Besides I drove both the Aero and the Linear. You’d actually have to floor the Aero in order to see a bit of difference in my opinion.

actually, i looked on gmcard.com a bit today, and GM Card earnings cannot be used on Saab vehicles.
 
But it appears GM is paying dealers 5% of MSRP for vehicles sold during this current promotion, to ensure dealers make money on these vehicles. That would support the idea that the employee price is negotiable during this promotion.

I’m actually paying $1000 less than a similar Aero configured on carsdirect.com and these guys sell cars in general cheaper than the dealers. You basically buy the car at invoice price. Which dealer will sell you a car at invoice price?
Why do you think I'm paying high? Please explain.

Please list the details - base price (MSRP and selling price), and each option's price.
 
Off the top of my head, the Aeros have been going for $7,x00 to $8,x00 off MSRP with the current GM employee price for everyone deal. Backing tax out of your deal, are you around $22,500 pre-tax? That would put your discount off MSRP at less than $7,000 and that doesn't sound right.
 
Either the dealer is adding on some extra charges, or I'm misunderstanding the numbers, or dealer isn't giving you the employee price, or something strange.

That is why I asked for your MSRP... At that MSRP, it sounds about right...
 
The GM employee price is actually under invoice.... Invoice minus holdback.. However, the Linear has $1000 less dealer cash incentive than the Aero.
 
I've heard the same thing about acceleration comparisons, when both are equipped with automatic.. Evidently the automatic is not a good combination with the turbo motor..
 
Interesting about the GM card points... I guess I've heard that before about Saab, but didn't remember.. One more reason for me not to get the GM card.

He said it was 23,784 including 6% tax.
  
Selling price of the car was under $22K, I'll bet.
At $22K, he pays tax on $27K... that's $1620, and only leaves $164 for doc fee and the actual state paperwork.
 
Compared to an MSRP in the $29s, I'm pretty sure he did just fine.
  
Now if I can just find one of these puppies to drive. Subie dealer here in Wilmington NC has one automatic OB Sport and one 5-speed WRX sedan, and Saab has zero 9-2X's. Not going to buy sight unseen either, ya know?

Both models Linear/Aero have the "discount" But the Aero has a $7-8000 rebate and the non-turbo has a much smaller rebate- in the $2-3000 range.
Also you do not HAVE to use premium. The ECM will make the necessary adjustments and will run fine on whatever gas you use.
