You are in the Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum. Your Hosts are car_man & kyfdx
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.

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 don't quite believe him. |

Replying to: amethiste (Jul 07, 2008 5:44 pm) And as far as that "ends tonight" pressure, that'd be enough to make me buy from another dealer.....As we get closer to the 2009 Aveos coming,the 2008s won't be getting m ore expensive..

Replying to: merckx (Jul 07, 2008 8:15 pm) Another dealership (Jerry's)here in Baltimore is alleging that this dealership (Fox)that gave me that quote did not mention the freight charge. Jerry's is alleging that Fox is trying to sell me a vehicle that belongs to Jerry's. The Sales Manager at Jerry's wants me to get the vin number so he can see if Fox is trying to sell me "his" vehicle. Ack - I just want to buy a car. What's with the drama?
