Here in Western New York, the Conquest cash is in place through July, and there is the additional $500 for May. However, am having a hard time finding an Acadia equipped like I want (SLT-1 with Convenience & Trailering pkgs). Dealer is searching now. I'll update what I find and price I am quoted. |

| Got quoted $1100 OVER invoice on an SLT-1 the other day; with also a weak deal on trrade-in. Certainly won't take that. Tightening inventories on Acadias may make the deals tough. Anyone else seeing such high quotes? | |

For the past 3 days, I test drove 3 Acadias, asked for quote, have my trade-in appraised. I chanced upon a very base model SLE-1 FWD with only a cargo management option worth $90. MSRP = $30080 Dealer Savings/Incentives = $2055 Edmunds Invoice = $28163 My dealer told me that I was already been given $700 over invoice. However, all calculations are based on the MSRP $30080. I brought up what I found in Edmunds and the dealer says that Edmunds does not consider dealer ads, etc, etc..in the price. What am I missing? The Acadia I'm interested is the very basic model and it clearly shows the MSRP= $30080..I cannot reconcile the figures. Any thoughts? |

Replying to: willhbauto (May 16, 2007 7:35 pm) Sorry to bother you but since I saw you were with a dealer in AZ thought maybe I could ask an unbiased question since I'm in MN. We used to live in Scottsdale. Starting to warm up there I bet. Anyway, I have a dealer here who is trying to sell me the GMC Acadia SLT-1 trim with parking assist and power tailgate in cherry color for $33,852, including the $1000 conquest for non GMC trade in. Is this a pretty good deal or should I keep waiting for a better deal or better financing? I had heard online there are some 0% deals on the Outlook but I haven't seen that in MN yet. Thanks! |

See earlier in this string, the dealer ad fees vary by location. These are usually mandatory, just check across several dealers in your general area to be sure they all charge the same. As to the financing, I have not seen any good deals on Acadia. Around me, the Acadias are going fast, and 08's aren;t expected until late July or August. Also, a price increase is to be expected. |

Has anyone rec'd any quotes from dealers on incentives available for June 2007 on the Acadia? The reason I ask is that the GMC website took down the $500 cash rebate that was posted for May 2007

Sitting here in NW Oregon....no-one has more than a couple of Acadias on the lot, and they're going fast. Really wanted to deal with my local GMC dealer, great reputation. They located almost exactly what we wanted: FWD Summit White SLT-1 Sunroof at a dealership about 3 hours away from us. They came back with this very itemized expense list....bottom line was they wanted MSRP for the rig after all advertising fees, overhead, salesman commissions, etc. ($35610), then minus Conquest cash, $34,610. The person acted insulted when we countered back with $500 over invoice and advertising fees. We left. I contacted the dealer who had the unit we were after: $34,388 out the door, minus Conquest Cash, $33,388. $1,300 difference. I don't want to drive three hours to do the deal, would you bother going back to the local dealership and showing them the quote? I think part of it is they have two fully loaded AWD SLT-2's on the lot, and they'd have to trade one of them...loosing out on a larger profit margin. May end up doing the driving!! thanks $34385

Replying to: therogue (Jun 10, 2007 12:25 pm)  Give them some incentive to close the deal as in "I'm a player & will sign today if you can match these terms" . Also, decide what your acceptable range is above those terms prior to going in. Chances are they won't exactly match the deal given they are swapping with another dealership. But if you get close enough & have decided what works for you ahead of time you will know when to take it. 3 hours is a long time to drive so if you decide what you are willing to pay above that current offer to save 3 hours drive time you will be happy with signing w/in a certain range. I had a similar situation. My local dealership wasn't pricing out very competitively so I drove a good deal further to another dealership & they said they would do "1% over invoice" + $289 doc fees & ~$200 TTL. I presented this offer to my local dealership & initially they said they would do 2% over invoice & we finalized on 1.5% over invoice +$249 doc fees & ~$200 TTL (which was acceptable to me because .5% was worth having the dealership in my backyard essentially + slightly less on doc fees). I've placed my order at 1.5% over invoice and waiting for delivery of an SLT-2. In the end, I decided that given the close proximity of the dealership to me I would just take the deal & get my Acadia because they seem to be in high demand at the moment & we wanted VERY specific options

Replying to: mtnwestsienna (Jun 10, 2007 2:22 pm) $1,000 over invoice, PLUS delivery charge. Either that or we fly to Sacramento, where there's several dozen, make the deal, and drive up. arrrg. TR
