Acadia SLT-2 Price Paid by griesemer1
Mar 24, 2009 (1:24 pm)
Reply
Acadia SLT-2 AWD
HID Headlamps
Tech Pkg
19" Wheels
Trailer Pkg
Cargo Pkg
 
MSRP $43,845
Consumer Reports Dealer Price Est. $38,400
Paid $38,600 ($40,600 less $2,000 lease incentive)
 
I figure the dealer probably cleared ~$2,000 on the deal, which seems fair since he has to deliver to me out of state.
 
If you can find an Acadia with a qualified VIN (mine was not eligible), there is a "March Clean Sweep Overage" cash-to-dealer incentive of $1,500. Ask the dealer if he has any VINs that qualify. Otherwise, go to gmprograminfo, call the 800 number and ask if your VIN qualifies. There are also $2,250 of incentives OR 0% financing. I took the 0%. But if you paid cash on a qualified VIN, are in a lease that is expiring soon, and negotiate a little harder than I did, you could probably walk out the door with something similar at $34,000. That's almost $10,000 less than MSRP.

How are the taxes only $967.85? The taxes on the Acadia we looked at would be over $3500 (in CA and they tax on the MSRP before any credits).

Good call on the Overage discount!
 
The Lease incentive is a good deal if you can use it.
 
GM has a generous incentive system. You did well.
 
$10K off MSRP may be a stretch if you cannot use the lease incentive, but $8K off is likely do able.
 
Any $8K off deals out there?

Taxes are 3% here in NC and they are calculated after discounts but before cash rebates.

I was incorrect, $10K off MSRP is possible with the GM Employee Price combined with the generous GM incentive system!

Acadia seating by dell46

Recently I test drove a 2009 Acadia SLT-2. It was great to drive, smooth, quiet, great acceleration and all of the accesories that you could ever want. Then I tried the second row seating, It had the captains chairs(seven passenger) and a small rear fold down seat. I am about about 5'11" and my knees and feet were so cramped in this second row that I was immediately turned off by this vehicle. For a large suv the seating in the rear is awful. My advice to any one who is interested in the Acadia or the Enclave is to try the rear seating before you purchase it. For a family car with children I am sure it would be no problem, but if you intend to haul adults check this feature out before you buy.

The second row seating is adjustable. I'm 6'1" with long legs and can adjust that for plenty of room. I think I can adjust the second row about halfway back and get it where I would be confortable in either the second or third row...though the third row is a little lsmaller for foot room.
 
I have an 08 Saturn Outlook with second row captains chairs. On a golf trip last year, Harvey rode in the second row for 500 miles one way..all 6' 4" 230 lbs and was comfortable.
 
I think the adjustment release is on the side of the seat. Shame on the sales person giving you the demo for not showing you this.

Did u push the captains chairs back? I just bought a slt1 and I have the front seat all the way back and the second row captains back and I fit and I'm not cramped. O I'm 6'4 so not sure what your talking bout. The 3rd row is cramped unless someone sits in the middle btween the captain chairs
