bobropa - to get the GM supplier discount you just go to the human resources office of your employer and ask for the form. Your company must be a supplier of pieces or processes to GM. Can be applied to factory ordered or out of stock units. You can not sell for one year and you can not contest the arbitrator in a Lemon Law dispute down the road. All regular retail incentives apply and the dealer gets the holdback as the handling fee. Win - Win if you work for a supplier.

I got a brand new 2003 Black Z66 avalanche msrp around 31,000 for 24,446 out the door. What a steal! I had a GM credit card with a 1,000 bonus with the 2,500 rebate. My total rebate was around 8,400!

paid just over $24. GM Supplier Discount Price - $4,000 rebate -$2019 earnings from GM card. (approx. $1350 courtesy of the General). Couldn't pass it up.

#81 of 131 Rebate is at $4500 right now, depending on state by joelis

If there is an auto show in your state, then you are probably looking at a $4500 rebate (500 extra for the show). Add that to the $5000 reduction from MSRP to Invoice on a loaded model, and its a damn sweet deal.
 
I forgot to mention the 3.9% financing on top of all that too.
 
(I think I better buy this week).

#82 of 131 0% Financing and SmartBuy by gregdempsey

Looking to purchase a new Avalanche before the end
of April, 2003 when 0% financing for 60/mos is set to expire.
Does anyone have any credible info on whether 0%
financing can be used with a Smart Buy contract?
Dealers say no, GMAC says they have heard of it.
  Also, how does a GM credit card aid in discounted GM vehicle prices.
                    Thanks People

#83 of 131 0% is for retail purchase by friendinthebiz

Good News - they extended the rates & rebates (at least in the North Central Region)
Better News - they increased the cash back to $4000 from the previous $3000 (this is in lieu of the 0%)
Bad News (for Greg Dempsey) 0% is only for real retail purchase contracts, no SmartLeases or SmartBuys. They have their own incentives ie., supported residuals, special money factors (not 0) and CCR, Capitalize Cost Reduction

With the GM Card, every purchase you make will accumulate earnings that you can save for up to seven years. Depending on which color GM Card you have, you might be able to use all of those earnings or only some. One card (the old card) gives you 5% of your purchases back in point earnings and allows you to spend only a certain amount on vehicles. Another card (one of the new ones) gives you 1% of your purchases back in point earnings and allows you to spend all of your points, no matter how much you have, on the vehicle. I don't remember if it's one or both, but I remember there being a 3,000 point cap on some card. Check out the GM Card website for more info.

#85 of 131 Seems like when I got my GM Card by txyank1

(the original) it was $500 per year for seven years totalling $3500 max. And seems like in the eigth year your first yr dropped off, so it in effect is the last seven years earnings.

#86 of 131 GM Platinum Card Worthless for GM EMP by dmanz66

Jul 08, 2003 (6:08 pm)

I have more than the $1000 available for use on the Avalanche on my GM platinum card. I have found out at the dealer that I can not combine the platinum card earnings with the GM employee discount. The dealer would not budge from the employee discount price. I haggled over the phone the the gm card reps to no avail. That $1000 would have closed the deal. Walked away with no Avalanche.

#87 of 131 Yes, that was a recent by txyank1

change they made. They certainly aren't making it more attractive to use the card.
