Since it was technically "used" they did the sale as a certified pre-owned.
There were no rebates or financing incentives available. (it had 6,000 miles on it)
 
It was the salesman's bad, when I walked in, I said "What ever i get will be $15,000 out the door (check in hand)"
He first said he could do it, then the manager tried to squeeze another $2,000 for a down payment. I got them with "The salesman said he could do $15,000 out the door. Later!"
6 blocks later, the manager called me and said "We will make it happen"
They still had to do some certified inspections for the classifications, so they gave me a Malibu to drive until the car is ready, telling me to save the gas receipts for re-embursements, and promised the car to have a full tank and be perfect.

New rebates? by northerncedar

We looked at an Aveo 5 door economy version about 2 weeks ago. The dealer called yesterday and said chevy has a new rebate of $1000.
 
So we get $1000 rebate, plus another $1000 for being a current Ford owner (2000 or newer ford).
 
I think the sticker price was about 10K
Minus $2000 chevy rebate (apparently just released).
Add tax, delivery etc.
Minus my GM rebate from our credit card of $1450.
Michigan tax is 6%
 
Out the door price is $7650.
 
So if you didn't have any GM credit card rebates, it would be about $9000 with tax, or about $8600 without tax.
 
I guess for a car without air, just manual everything, is it a good deal??

The SVM is a great car, if you are not needing A/C. And a wonderful value for the money. Moreover, at $7,650 plus the money you save in gas, you definately come out a winner in the end.

Actually lower than blue book value. by northerncedar

We looked up the blue book retail value for the vehicle, and it was a little bit higher than the bottom line price (not counting my GM card rebates).
 
A used Aveo with about 6000 miles was being listed for sale on ebay for a higher price. So I think this must be one of the lowest price in the year for this model. I think we could have saved a few more hundreds if I had bartered. But I didn't feel like bartering too much.
 
I know that most of the time, if you bring the invoice to another dealer, he'll knock a few more hundreds off.
 
So folks, you can print up my post, and take it to a dealer, and likely will beat me by at least a hundred bucks. The rebate might run out at the end of the month... Or maybe not.

Buying an 08 Aveo LT sedan AT by amethiste

I have a quote from Casey Chevrolet in Newport News, VA for $14,500 "out the door" under the GM family first plan. Does this seem like a reasonable price. I am nervous about this car as I see a lot of people on car-space seem to be having problems and CR ranked it a 36 out of 100. I commute about 240 miles a week and need something reliable. My 99 Ford Escort has about 200,000 miles and has to be repaired about twice a month so I need to replace it . Thanks in advance for any input.

Impossible to say with the info you provided. How is the car equipped? What options?

I can only estimate, since I have no idea of your actual location.
 
But, according to Edmunds...
 
MSRP is around 15,580. Invoice is about 14,700.
 
That is before any rebates.
 
Personally, I would suggest you research a few other models, such as Toyota Corolla, Nissan Sentra, Hundai and Honda Fit.
 
The MPG of the Aveo seems to be all over the board by posters on these forums, and for just a little more money, you can have a larger vehicle with the same or better mpg.
 
But, if you have your mind set on the Aveo, I suggest you send your requirements to 3 or 4 dealers nearby via email, and see what they offer. That will give you the best idea if the price is competitive or not.

I really liked the Fit however it is significantly more expensive. I have emailed 3 local dealers in the Baltimore, MD. My parents live in Newport News, VA and they took a look at the car for me as my car is dead in the water so I could not do it myself. I'm looking at the Aveo because I have an family member who works for GM and could get me a discount
