My wife and I are pretty well stuck on the Uplander after driving the BIG 3 in test drives. I like the looks and feel and the price is pretty good as well. I have a question before heading out to the dealer. My question involves this employee pricing program they have going. We would like to know if they are going to extend it beyond the 30th of September here in Canada because I don't want to feel rushed about it .. that only leaves me 5 working days to buy a car and thats really rushing things. If this is the true deadline for it should I opt to wait and pick up a 2006 or reap the savings of a 2005 ... or is there savings?

I'm shopping for a new Uplander and have a 93 Cavalier i'll be wanting to trade-in for the deal but I am unsure at what point is the smartest time to tell the salesperson re: the trade-in? Will I get more for it after we have agreed on a price for the new vehicle and than lay it on them or walk in the dealership and telling them right off the bat? |

Replying to: wilson7 (Sep 24, 2005 6:13 pm) 1) If you know you want an '05 Uplander, then I wouldn't wait... Some makes, once they put buying incentives on a car, leave them there until the car is sold... But, the domestic makes seem to be schizophrenic about things like this, and many times a vehicle may cost $1000 more, if you miss the special program... End of the month and end of the quarter are coming up.. That is always a good time to buy.. Don't feel rushed, or feel like you have to buy.. but, get out there and see what you can do.. 2) You didn't describe your '93 Cavalier, but in reality, any 13 year-old car is going to be worth less than $500 on trade.. So, it isn't going to materially affect your final number, no matter when you bring it up.. If the car is in nice shape, you'd probably do much better selling it in the private market.. regards, kyfdx Host-Prices Paid Forums |

Replying to: lee_w (Dec 22, 2004 5:36 am) Isthere anyway I can know who and where did he buy his uplander and what was the options he got for that price? I bought a new van last Feb 3, 2007 and the salesman told to me that I got the best price thoughout Canada, The Price was $22,800 + Tax. Please advise $800 is a big money for me considering we have triplets. If I know him, I may contact him and ask the options he got then I can come back to my dealer and will try to ask something. A $800 is almost 1 year of gas already. Please help |

Hi, I am new to this forum and just came across this discussion. We just bought a 2007 Uplander LS with remote start option for $20305 all in.

Love my 2008 Uplander who else sells a mini van with ground clearance that these vans have? 2007 thru 2009 they were raised 6.5 inches. While the trend to buy crossover vehicles i still love a van. 240hp + 240lb torque with 90% of it from 1500 RPM on Variable cam timing which makes it so clean running that it doesn't even require a EGR valve. Ford Chrysler are left behind in Engine design. Yes some of the older Uplanders had problems! GM saved the best for last.
