Actually, I may have a good option for you that can save your deal. There is a Carmax used car dealership in Burbank. You can take the car you wanted to trade in to Carmax. They will buy it off you, even if you do not buy a car from them. When I sold my wife's Subaru, the guy buying it didn't know how to get rid of his old car. A dealer offered him about $3,500 for his car. He went to Carmax and they offered him $8,000. He actually gave me an extra $500 just to thank me for suggesting Carmax.
BTW, I eventually sold my wife's Subaru for $21,500. Carmax had offered me $20,000 for it, so what they offer is actually pretty fair. It's definitely a lot better than what the dealer will offer you on a trade in.

Thanks. I'll try Carmax, but I am doubtful I'll get close to what I owe on it. I'm looking to take no more than a $2000 loss. Can't hurt to try tho!

Good luck with Carmax. Let us know what they offered you. I am curious if they are still giving decent offers.

Hey bromion. Negotiate the lowest possible pre-incentive selling price that you can for the Volt and then have the dealer subtract the $2,420 from that. The incentive is completely funded by General Motors, not dealers.

Gotcha. I did notice this $2420 in the lease write-ups I looked at recently. Alas, still not enough to bring down lease prices to where they were a month or two ago.

Hi Travispete,
 
Would you mind sharing the dealership name.
 
Thanks in advance.

Not trying to take anything away.
Here in SO CA (Costa Mesa, CA)
I had a great leasing experience with Connell Chevrolet.
I dealt with Eddie and his son Joey.
Eddie has been there for years 20+.
His son maybe 6 years.
Anyway, we have bought from them several times, always a good experience.
Again, not trying to take away, just posting my opinion.

#239 of 313 2013 Chevy Volt lease deal by mochacina

Dec 05, 2012 (11:33 pm)

Check out George Chevrolet in Bellflower. Ask for Alejandro.
 
I got my 2013 Chevy Volt leased in September.
 
$44k msrp without navigation. Don't need navigation when you get 3 years Onstar with turn-by-turn navigation download to your vehicle.
 
$1200 drive off including 1st month.
$325/month for 35 months....12,000 miles per year. ($325 is the total monthly payment with tax and everything.)
 
I got $1500 rebate for the clean air incentive program.
 
I used to pay more than $300 for gas every month. Now, i pay around $40-$50 a month to charge my car. So far, i only used up 3 gallons of gas from the same tank when i leased the car. Don't see myself filling up any time soon.

Can you tell us the residual on your lease? I have a feeling September was before they dropped the residuals and good luck getting that deal now.
