Question about incentives and credit score by aph
Aug 04, 2006 (1:19 am)
Reply
What I'm having trouble understanding is how these dealer incentives work in conjunction with credit scores. I understand that the manufacturer can offer either a financing incentive for the upper-tier credit scores such as 0% for some time. What happens if they offer say, $3000 back in lieu of the 0% financing? Does that require the same upper-tier credit score and, if so, how much would the amount decrease with a lesser credit score.
 
I am looking to take advantage of the $299/mo, 39 mos., $0 down, $1939 at signing listed here at Edmunds.com but I can't figure out if I'm eligible with my credit score, which was 626 a month ago. How would this offer be affected by a mid-tier credit score like mine?

I spoke with a dealer here and he offered me the following:
 
2006 Cadillac CTS
4dr Sedan (2.8L 6cyl 6M)
$33,635 MSRP (Edmunds shows $32,390)
$31,800 invoice (Edmunds shows $30,080)
39 months
3.95% base lease rate
.53 Residual = $17,826.55
Cost reduction -$2,800 (Edmunds shows -$3,000)
Administrative fee "charged by GMAC" $780
 
All for $32,678 (he says it's invoice + administrative fee + $500 + his cost of sending a driver to get the car from another dealership).
 
Is he lying about the MSRP and invoice here? I understand these things can change, and he said that this car is >200 days old so has the "older MSRP". I am willing to give him $500 but only if he is giving me accurate information in regards to MSRP, invoice, and that the administrative fee is really charged by GMAC.

I really don't know. The 'agreed upon value" in the lease contract is $36,494. and the gross capitalized cost is $37.450.

Does anyone know the money factor that Cadillac is using for its 299/mo setup?

2005 CTS by cme2c

Carman,
 
Any idea what the dealer incentive and Residuals would be for a 2005 CTS. I would like to do a 39 or 48 month with 15,000 miles. A local dealer has a new 2005 CTS with Sport package and Auto Trans. MSRP is 42,000. I am hoping to get about 10,000 off MSRP, maybe more. Nobody was there tonight, gonna go back tomorrow to try to deal.

The 2005 CTS I mentioned above has the 1sc package, sport package, luxury package, autotrans. Just curious if they still offer the non-GM owner bonus?

Hi radioative2006. What is this car's full MSRP? I ask because this number will show me how much of a discount you are being given and it will enable me to use GM's current lease program to estimate its monthly payment. For now I can tell you that it is not in your best interest to make such a large down payment on this lease. Consumers can and should lease any vehicle that they are interested in without making any sort of down payment. I say this because if your leased vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered during your lease your down payment essentially disappears. Anyhow, let me know this car's MSRP and I'll tell you what I think.

Hello aph. Consumers' credit scores do not have any impact upon the cash incentives that are available on vehicles. They only impact the interest rate that you will be charged if you want to finance or lease. This is a moot point anyhow because I do not believe that the aforementioned dealer cash is compatible with GMAC's special lease program for this model. GMAC is usually fairly lenient in who it approves for its special finance and lease offers. While I cannot say for certain, I suspect that there is a very good chance that you will qualify for GM's special lease program for the CTS.
