#75 of 425 Re: financing 2006 vette [monzrph] by blkhemi Oct 22, 2005 (6:52 pm)
Replying to: monzrph (Oct 22, 2005 6:39 pm) Who did you finance through? If it was GMAC, then the dealer has to go by what GMAC financed you at. I would get a second quote from my own bank. Depending on which C6 you get and the cost, 5.9% may not be so bad after all. A close friend of mine got a C6 Z51 conv. and the cost was $56,600 and he is paying a rate of 6.3% through GMAC. His Beacon score was a 740. However, you can also have to much credit, as was the case with him. $1,600,000 home, $22,000 in credit cards, $210,000 RV. It all ads up. However, if all is paid on time, you should have no problem. Replies to this message: monzrph (Oct 22, 2005 7:24 pm)

Replying to: blkhemi (Oct 22, 2005 6:52 pm) i haven't financed yet.. just getting a feel for what the dealership will offer me.. it was at potamkin chev in hialeah. the sales manager whipped out a book of percentages for each chev and showed me that the corv was "STND" which meant standard. I shouldn't have to pay more than what they pay if i have a perf score, right? i don't have too much credit either. also, how much should i haggle with the msrp? i'm such a rookie at this
#77 of 425 I'd read back through this thread ... by starrow68 Oct 24, 2005 (9:31 am)
You can haggle a bunch but at a local dealer you are bidding against the next guy who wants that production slot and he may be willing to pay. On the internet you can find dealers that will discount if you take the time there instead of letting the local salesman take up time you could use getting a much better deal.      As to paying what they pay based on credit score, I'm betting they are trying to make money so are going to get a spread, large or small, they want something. There are no rules so it is a matter of research and finding the best source, like a Credit Union is some cases.   Randy Replies to this message: socalh2oskier (Oct 26, 2005 2:30 pm)

Replying to: starrow68 (Oct 24, 2005 9:31 am) Check around. I placed an order with a dealer who gave me $500 under MSRP for late November delivery. Then I started looking on the internet and found the exact car I wanted and purchased it for $2300 under MSRP. I found plenty of dealers out there who were willing to go at least $2000 under MSRP.
#81 of 425 FWIW 2005 discounts by starrow68 Oct 27, 2005 (11:19 am)
Just looked at a site and saw a 2005 Blue and a 2005 DSOM convertible that were around $6k off MSRP. Dealer got them from dealers unable to move them and I expect they were up on snow country. Deals are out there if you look. Randy
#82 of 425 Convertible Delivery by cat3126 Oct 30, 2005 (12:45 pm)
Ordered on 9/12/05 and the car was delivered on 10/29/05. The dealer Eric Von Schledorn (EVS) was delivering four others that day. They also had drop shipped cars in Maryland,Florida and Arkansas the same week. They are the largest Corvette dealer in WI. They are located in Random Lake WI. approx 40 miles north of Milwaukee. The discount off MSRP was $3170.00
#83 of 425 First time dealer order by rootboy66 Oct 31, 2005 (9:40 am)
I've got the hots for a low-optioned, automatic, yellow, 2006 coupe and have never bought or ordered a new car. Dealer reduced price $3,000 from $46,600 down to $43,600 without my asking. Are sales slow and do I have more bargaining room down to about $41,500 - $42,000? I've studied all 80+ msgs on this forum, many thanks for advice. It sounds like a dealer's Corvette allocation from GM is based on prior year Corvette sales. Is that true? Replies to this message: jmess (Oct 31, 2005 9:16 pm)
#84 of 425 The allocation is based on prior sales by starrow68 Oct 31, 2005 (1:42 pm)
If they unload a low demand unit then they can try to get a higher demand unit in the future and get a better return. For pricing I'd compare to Kerbeck Chevy, links above since that is the highest volume dealer in the country. Most local dealers aren't even close on discounts, so if you are in the ball park it sounds like a pretty good deal. You can always make an offer and if they don't accept tell them to let you know in a week and if they call but want you to come up, let them know your offer stands but won't be as high next time. Question always is, how much do you want it?
