#302 of 405 Just Bought Acadia 2008 SLT1 by mojo18 Dec 08, 2008 (7:04 am)
MSRP $38,265. This is a Summit White Acadia 2008, Only 42 miles, FWD, 3.6L V6 with Convenience Pkg, Luxury Package, Trailer Package, Power Liftgate, Head Up Display. No Entertainment pkg or Nav. Got $5k off. No up front money am paying $660 per month on 60 month buy (5.9% apr). Lease price was $600 for 39 months, 15k miles, $0 down. Dealer would not budge past the $5k discount price. Feel I got a reasonable deal. Love the car.

Replying to: kmchotwheelz (Dec 07, 2008 4:42 pm) It was probably a demo. I bought a demo Avalanche a couple of years ago. I got them to take an additional 15 cents a mile off for the excess mileage. My argument was that they charge 15 cents a mile for a lease overage. It worked.   I would try to get true invoice less $600 for the mileage. It has 4000 miles more than a new car, so it has 4000 less life on the tires, probably never had an oil change. All these things have a value. Good luck

Replying to: kmchotwheelz (Dec 07, 2008 4:42 pm) The vehicle is new as long as it has never been titled. Interestingly, if you finance, banks will charge a higher "used" vehicle rate even if a you buy a previously titled vehicle with as little as 500 miles. Banks will charge a lower interest rate in this case or even in the case of a never-titled vehicle with say 10,000 miles. Nobody ever said banks were smart.   That said, unless the dealer bends significantly on the red-tag price, you can probably find a used equivalently dressed Acadia with extremely low miles for somewhere in the very low $30K range. I usually always buy new, but I'm close to buying a used '08 with 10K miles (origianl MSRP $41K) for $28K. I'm not sure why the depreciation has been so hard on these vehicles. Perhaps there are concerns about a GM bankruptcy which could put your warranty at risk as you are in reality an unsecured creditor.

#309 of 405 GMC Acadia Advertising by autowrite Dec 25, 2008 (11:04 pm)
I hate it when GM vechicles are advertised as better than Honda or Toyota or Nissan, etc. Advertise the GM vehicles as having so & so good quality and leave the competion out of it. Always bad mouthing the compation makes current customers that drive Honda, Toyota, Nissan etc. stay away from your salerooms. I've own Fords, Chryslers and currently have a Honda Odyssey. If you want me in your showroom "keep how better you are than........" out of it! Canadian from Ontario. Replies to this message: vinnyny (Dec 29, 2008 8:03 am) autowrite (Dec 29, 2008 8:45 am)

Replying to: autowrite (Dec 25, 2008 11:04 pm) As a fellow Odyssey owner, the GM ads don't bother me in the least. In fact, I'd be disappointed if the domestic makers didn't try to convince us that they're better than the foreign competition. I trade my vehicles in very often, generally every other year, and I consider the Big Three every time. However, I haven't found another family vehicle that compares to the Odyssey (my fourth since 2001).   GM should try to make the argument that the Acadia, Enclave, Outlook, and Traverse are a better alternative. When I trade in my Odyssey next year, I'll be taking a very hard look at the Traverse and Acadia (especially since my wife will likely kill me if I stick her with another minivan!).   One thing that does bother me about the domestic makers is that prior to their recent difficulties, their prices were absurd. I bought my Mercedes C350 for about $5k less than the Cadillac CTS I really wanted to buy. Even the BMW 335 was less expensive. GM has to drop this dependency on rebates and offer lower total costs of ownership if they want to bring foreign car buyers back into the fold...
