Hey just wondering where in NJ did you get offered this deal? we went to 2 dealerships yesterday in Union NJ & Summit NJ and we weren't impressed with them.. one laughed at us when we said we wanted the basic SLE model with just the entertainment package added on...he said he's never heard ANYONE want 'just the basic' model.
 
so we're looking for dealer recommendations in North Jersey...we're in Maplewood but we're willing to drive to get a good deal.
 
we want SLE basic with RES package for 36 months/12000miles, zero down bar incentives
 
are we crazy thinking we can get this below $430??
 
also is it common for salesman to just NOT give u the residual or money factor..we kept getting 'its approx..etc etc'

We just bought last week in Memphis, TN:
 
2008 Acadia FWD SLT-1
White Diamond Tricoat
Ebony leather (captain chairs)
Dual skyscape sunroof
Power liftgate
Convenience pkg. (ultrasonic parking, remote start)
Cargo pkg.
Trailer pkg.
 
Total: $35,909.03 with the Supplier's Discount and $1,500 in rebates ($500 rebate and $1k Conquest).
 
I'm not sure that I got the best deal but I researched it alot and this is the lowest I could get. They are not moving alot on the prices, at least down here in the South!
 
Salesman insisted it was below invoice but I don't buy it--he even went as far to say that Supplier's Discount was below invoice...which is a lie). They have to make $$$ too, as long as they don't screw you in the process. I feel like it was pretty fair deal.

Did you have any rebates or incentives? It looks like this should be close to invoice plus rebates. Do you know how much they came off msrp before any incentives? Where in NC did you find this deal?

Anyone know what the current conquest rebate on Acadia is right now?? I thought it was $500 but was hoping it went up with current GM loyalty rebate offers.

They have to make $$$ too, as long as they don't screw you in the process.
 
"Below invoice" does not mean below their real net cost. The so-called invoice that these dealers use (and you can look up on Edmunds) is filled with hidden profits for them. So oftentimes, you can buy good cars for $300-500 below invoice. Slower sellers go for $1000-1500 below invoice. End of Year leftovers can go even lower than that. Of course, there is a lot of variation according to car type and date of transaction, but those are general rules of thumb to consider.
 
You should also keep in mind that Edmunds TMV pricing looks "tough", but car dealers would be in heaven if they could do deals at the TMV price all day long. (Note all the automobile advertisements on this website...strange the car companies are not angry with Edmunds for this "aggressive" TMV pricing...hmmmm )

$3000 below invoice by thomasw98

I wouldn't touch one of these cars for anything more than $3000 below invoice (including all the rebates or whatever you want to call them). This company is teetering on the edge of Chapter 11 bankruptcy (my guess is that they will have to take drastic action within 6 months), so who knows what will happen to the warranty and service needs for this car after you buy it?!?! With all that risk, I need a very special price. Maybe I won't get it...in which case, I will stick with the import brands.
