hi gohatters. If I was in the market for 2012 Cadillac CTS right now, I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice minus any available cash incentives. You can look up the invoice price of the exact car that you want over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
As far as the incentives go, General Motors is currently providing a whopping $6,175 cash incentive on 36-month leases of the '12 CTS Sedan through Ally.

Hey alialex12:
If by "competitive lease rebate," you mean the rebate for being a current lessee of a non-GM car, then no, I did not qualify. You cannot combine the private lease offer and the competitive lease rebate. However, my deal was revised somewhat by virtue of the fact that I wound up using 1500 GM points. So, the monthly went down from $400 to $360, but my out of pocket at lease signing went up to $800 plus tax. The dealership is North Bay in New York.

Hey Car Man,
What is the rate and residual for a 15,000 mile lease on a base 2012 CTS Coupe right now?
For 24 months and 36/39 months?
What are the lease rebates?
Thank You
#733 of 948 Customer Service

The Cadillac customer service department promised me a customer appreciation certificate, but when I went to have them set it up for me to use it, they told me that it didn't apply to my deal. No mention was made of this when they made the commitment when I told them I needed help because I was under water in my BMW lease. Hardly a way to treat someone who's switching from BMW. Anyway, does anyone know how to contact Cadillac corporate customer service so I can see if they're willing to make good? Thanks, David

Finally went through with it.
CTS base 4 door
Sticker: $38,515
36/mo 10k miles/yr
$0 out of pocket
$328/mo pre-tax
While it's probably not absolute rock bottom I felt pretty good about it. They tried to get me to pay $1700 for fees/title/1st payment, but thanks to this thread I knew I could negotiate that down to $0. Thanks for the help!

Congrats on the new CTS! i wanted to know a few things about your lease and your negotiation.
There's a lease going on at my local dealer for $328/mo. 36/mo 10k mi/yr and $1999 dwn pymt. Is that the same program you saw in your area?
If so, how did you get them to go from 1999 dwn to 0 down?
