Good deal on '08 SLT-1 FWD? by zoesdad
Nov 11, 2007 (11:10 am)
Reply
Been monitoring for a while so now it's my turn to post:
 
As noted in title, '08 SLT-1 FWD
Liquid Silver Metallic with Ebony Leather
2-2-3 seating
Preferred Pkg
Convenience Pkg
Rear power liftgate
heated wiper fluid
115V power outlet
 
MSRP: $35,500
Total purchase price: $33,871 ($32,793 selling price + $1,055 sales tax + $23 tags and fees).
 
Essentially, I was given a $500 Conquest rebate and a "preferred customer discount" of $2,707.
 
I believe invoice was approximately $32,300.
 
Wanted the dual sunroof but dealer did not have a FWD SLT-1 with both 2nd row captains chairs and the dual sunroof. Most vehicles on the lot were AWD, which I didn't want. (Didn't necessarily want the heated wiper fluid or power outlet either, but that is how it was equipped...).
 
Had a nice sales experience with dealer, all-in-all (J. Koons in Tyson's Corner, VA).
 
Please let me know if you have any reaction; good, bad or indifferent to this purchase, thanks!

0% Financing on 07's by winedogs

GMC is offering 0% financing for 60 months on all remaining Acadia's. First saw this on TV and verified it on PAGMCDeals.com. Has anyone purchased an 07 using this offer?

What should I expect to pay on an 07 Acadia this late in the year? I would assume that having 08's in the market should put a 07 Acadia well under invoice? Any input would be appreciated.

GMC Acadia SLE FWD by asantheb

I got a quote for 2008 GMC Acadia SLE-1 FWD with 2 Captains Chairs (ABB), Remote Keyless Entry with Remote start, Ultrasonic Rear Assist (PDD) and AM/FM Radio w/In-Dash CD Changer (US8) for $29,706 + TT&L.
 
This quote was from Ewing Plano, TX dealership and in response to a quote request from Edmunds.
 
Is this a good price? I also noticed that they applied a $500 rebate to get to the $29,706? Is this the conquest rebate and is it 500 or a 1000?

Hi,
I've been following this forum and the Saturn Outlook forum as well.
 
The Outlook forum seems to be very, very slow. I am more interested in the Outlook because I prefer its looks over the Acadia. But, no one seems to be posting in the 'prices paid' area.
 
Does this mean that people don't like the Outlook? Or is just that you can get a better deal on an Acadia?
 
I've been reading other GMC forums and no one really has metioned any thing, except that the Outlooks aren't selling as well as the Acadia... But why? Is it just the price difference?
 
So, I have sent requests for quotes on the Outlook all over California, and everyone is just asking MSRP. I guess that's why people rather go with the Acadia. But, I really do like the Outlook a bit more and will try to see if they come down in price since they are not selling very well.

I had not really good experience with Saturn dealer. I came to one this and test drove. I like everything and we start negotiating price. One moment I start felt like they don't want to sell this car. I don't know how to explain, but maybe some one had same experience, it's like you trying hard to buy and they are trying hard not to sell it. After that I went to GMC, I felt very pleasant environment. That's why i bought Acadia.

Just got an '08 Acadia by jdsci

Hi Everyone,
 
Last week, I just got an '08 Acadia SLT-2, with Nav, DVD, sunroof, HID, Tow Package, Pearl paint, 19' wheels minus the wheel credit... I think that's it. I need to pull the actual invoice numbers from my purchase contract (not with me now) to post here so you all can confirm the deal, but my recollection is that I paid $42,250. Invoice should have been approximately $42,011 (including destination - but not including bogus advertising fees, etc)
 
Got the deal by calling the local fleet managers (who these days are just the internet manager) of several dealers, and asked them what SLT-2's they had on their lots for immediate purchase.
 
Pretty standard procedure for me, but a number of dealers tried to tell me invoice included their advertising fees (as much as $800/vehicle) and a couple other smaller charges. Edmunds has the accurate data, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
 
Finally got my deal (essentially $250 over Edmund's invoice) and they still gave me the $500 GM conquest discount. Pretty cool.
 
Good luck out there!
 
I would love to hear from someone who has installed aftermarket lock pick and/or bluetooth in an Acadia/Outlook/Buick-Egg

Hi Bruce.
 
Unless Saturn has changed their policy, they always sell their vehicles at MSRP. Saturn doesn't negotiate on their new vehicles. They just hand you a pricing sheet when you walk in. They claim that's why their prices are lower (no negotiating). The only thing they negotiate is on a trade-in. Good luck, man.

re: Saturn pricing policy... My daughter was buying a used Saturn years ago and they claimed to not even negotiate pricing on their used vehicles. IIRC, late in the 2007 model year there was a $1000 or so rebate.
 
My wife is covered under the GM Supplier discount program. I can get the GSM pricing for Buick and GM from their web page...for Saturn it says contact dealer for pricing details...so, I guess you get some discount but it is not published.
 
I don't think the Outlook has any price advantage over the Acadia with the same equipment...the base Outlook has a little less equipment standard than the Acadia so when you add that to the base Outlook, the pricing is about the same. Acadia might even be less if you can get a discount off MSRP and Saturn does not discount.
