Luck with the private offer
Im trying to buy my new camaro this month. I know that its the 14 and the hit day is usually after the 15. What are the chances of being able to get it?

it was from ally bank, but when i went to the dealer, they looked up ALL AVAILABLE REBATES on there computer and had the same offer, so what I would do is go to your dealership, and ask the sales manager to look up all the available rebates for you.

Thanks man for the inside info. I really appreciate it I've been really trying to get down to a reasonable amount. I have the preferred price military discount you think they will allow me to use that too? Maybe the 750 one too.

basicly, i could go in, and talk down the price where i would get it for the same discount your talking about, if not cheaper, its good to know what they paid for the car. Thats what i did, and offered them $500 on top of that, then took off for all my rebates and incentives. Some incentives will cancel out others, but i know my sales manager, and he spent time by the computer, checking which incentives cancel out others. being prior military, i could use a usaa dicount, but then it cancelled out the other $1000 discount from ally, so i chose ally because the usaa was only for $750
too bad your not in wisconsin, i could save you the hassle and just send you to my dealer, i sent someone else a couple weeks ago, and he bought a camaro a couple days later from there

Yeah I agree I could use some help. So your saying start off with the msrp price and go down from there then use the incentives and stuff, right?

I always negotiate the price first then bring up incentives I'm eligible for.

dont work from the msrp at all, find out what the dealers cost on the car, and then offer them $500 above that. If they dont like the offer, try another dealer, odds are they will stop you as your walking out. Only worry about rebates and incentives AFTER you agree on a price.

Then walk out. Which won't be easy because they'll be crying and stumbling for something to say. Go home wait for their calls, they'll call you and tell you they will match that number. I don't even go to another dealership, I just tell them this is the price they're giving me, if you can match it we got a deal. I tell them I'd rather buy it from them because the other dealership is further away or I thought the salesman was a real jerk or any nonsense you want to give them. Then for the grand finale, while on the phone with the salesman I work into the conversation something like "wow what do you do work seven days a week" then of course he will tell you when he's off next. That's the day you go and buy the car. Walk in, he's not in (since its his day off) and you go straight to the General Sales Manager. Tell him if the price was $300 or $500, if you have the nads, less you'd sign the dotted line right now. Works every time. Why? The General Manger doesn't give a crap about the nickel and dime stuff the sales guy is trying to make, he makes his money by Moving cars! Sign the papers and get out of Dodge. |

I am waiting for my 13 1LT Conv IBM to be delivered, hopefully this week. I am also trying to use the Private Offer Pop-up, its the 18th, I though it would have worked by now.
