We ordered an Enclave weeks ago for "Invoice plus ..." Our dealer just told us that our cuv has been built and is being shipped "as we speak." He says that, as of last week he didn't have firm invoice prices from GM (although they appear in the Edmunds and KBB sites.) Can anyone confirm that GM has provided invoice prices to their Buick dealers? I want to firm up our contract. Jay

Replying to: boomzer (May 09, 2007 8:34 am) We solicited fax quotes from 6 local dealers (sent in quote requests through multiple websites initially). After some back and forth bargaining on the phone, the best offer we have now is $350 less than dealer invoice (including destination and ad fees). On top of that we need to pay tax, tag/registration ($260, this is only a little higher than titling/tag services charge here) and $100 doc fee. This offer is still $500 from our initial bottomline (Edmunds invoice price). But the manager is not willing to budge further. All the other offers are at least $450 more than this. Should we just cave in at this point or try to haggle more face-to-face? If we delay ordering any further, we will risk losing the $1k conquest cash.

Jay I can confirm that dealers have invoice price now. At least 3 dealers showed invoice price on their quote. It's Edmunds invoice plus ad fee. Are they seriously that fast building and shipping Enclaves? In that case I probably shouldn't worry about the conquest cash |

Hubby and I went to the dealership this afternoon and placed the order. The manager wouldn't budge on the selling price no matter what. We knew it wasn't a bad deal already and since I'm 8 months pregnant, I really didn't want to walk out and start the negotiation elsewhere from the scratch. Finally we talked him into removing the doc fee and tag/registration charges ($360 total) since we can do our own registration with cash purchase. He also threw in an additional year of free oil change and tire rotation, which isn't worth a lot but still better than nothing. This is what it breaks down to: MSRP - $43,725 Dealer Invoice - $41,083 Selling Price - $40,725 Tax - $2,037 Total cost - $42,762 We paid $500 deposit using credit card. With the order number, we can try to call GM and track order status, but may be referred back to the dealer since GM is overflooded with order inquiries |
