#11 of 16 March 2007 Incentive by aaron_t Mar 03, 2008 (6:17 am)
Replying to: kcross (Mar 01, 2008 9:37 am) Looks like $4750 rebate on leftover 2007 Compass. I wonder what the lease rates would be. Replies to this message: aaron_t (Mar 26, 2008 6:40 am) rmbalisa (Mar 31, 2008 6:45 am) aaron_t (Apr 04, 2008 8:46 am)

Replying to: aaron_t (Mar 03, 2008 6:17 am) I could not hold back. I found a leftover 2007 Compass Limited 4WD 5-speed with no other options. MSRP $22,740. Sales price $15,500 + TTL. That is about $500 under employee price that I get through my wife. I picked it up from a dealer 200 miles away from home 2 weeks ago tomorrow and have put 1200 miles in it already. I would have perferred a Patriot, but I couldn't find any 2007 5-speeds within 200 mile radius, and they are running about $2k more for similar equipment. They are the same inside, I just have to get past the looks outside.   The value of the features it has, the interior size, AWD, ride highet for putting kids in back seat, and fuel economy should make it a great commuter vehicle and short trip vehicle. Still have a minivan for trips, though.   BTW, 2008 models have $2500 in incentives already. Replies to this message: rmbalisa (Mar 31, 2008 6:45 am) aaron_t (Apr 04, 2008 8:46 am)

Replying to: aaron_t (Mar 26, 2008 6:40 am) how did you get $500 under employees price? I thought that is the lowest they can go Replies to this message: aaron_t (Apr 04, 2008 8:46 am)

Replying to: rmbalisa (Mar 31, 2008 6:45 am) Dealers usually make more money with an employee sale than a non-employee sale invoice. There are dealer kickbacks and holdbacks. Invoice is not what dealers pay for the vehicle. Nor is employee price. I've purchased or leased 4 vehicles $500-2000 under EP in the last 5 years   In this case, I first offered $1500 under EP, but the sales manager sounded offended over the phone. Keep in mind, this vehicle was probabyl on his lot for a year, and it's an undesirable 5-speed. I doubt this dealer does many, if any, employee purchases to fully understand how much they really make on the sale. To him, I was just some guy 200 miles away making low-ball offers sight unseen. This was a dealer outside Cleveland, OH vs. metro Detroit that does 95% EP or supplier sales. There was one other Compass I test drove locally (only 5-speed within 100 miles) that had more equipment than I wanted to pay for. That dealer offer was $1303 under EP before rebates. It just ended up being about $3000 more than because of equipment than the one I purchased. So I got less of a deal than i think I could have ogtten, but was willing to pay a bit more to get the right vehicle/equipment for me.

Does anyone know if the jeep incentives being offered right now apply to a pre-owned 2008 jeep compass? Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 03, 2009 4:06 am)

Replying to: kbsmom (Jan 21, 2009 5:48 pm) Hi kbsmom. Unfortunately, the incentives that Chrysler is providing on the 2008 Jeep Compass right now are only available on brand new vehicles or dealer demos that have never been titled. A used or CPO Compass would not be eligible for them.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
