Factored out to this for the SS:

Selected Style: SS Supercharged
MSRP: $21,995.00
Chevrolet Employee Discount Price: (approx.) $20,034.15 †(Details)
(after applicable incentives)

Just wonder if they'll nail me on my trade (2002 Hyundai Elantra GT 49,000 miles, please don't laugh ) at the dealer?

Thanks

unfortunately, i know for my dealership, trade in value's of a Kia or a Hyundai or drastically lower than that of anything else. Just do your research and know what to expect before going in. I wish I had one on one of my lots to give you an idea of what we would have owned it for.

Thanks AutoBiz. If I can get $5000-$5500 for it, I'd jump on it. I bough it back in March as "transportation" for $8800.00 when I sold my Tib GT.

At this point I'll take the hit as the car is nice for a commuter but NO guts.

This GM Employee discount has got me off the 05' Mustang V6 and onto a Black or Blue SS.

Thanks

Consumer Rated Condition: Good
"Good" condition means that the vehicle is free of any major defects. This vehicle has a clean title history , the paint, body and interior have only minor (if any) blemishes, and there are no major mechanical problems. There should be little or no rust on this vehicle. The tires match and have substantial tread wear left. A "good" vehicle will need some reconditioning to be sold at retail. Most consumer owned vehicles fall into this category.


Trade-In Value List Your Car For Sale Online $6,330
Trade-in Value is what consumers can expect to receive from a dealer for a trade-in vehicle assuming an accurate appraisal of condition. This value will likely be less than the Private Party Value because the reselling dealer incurs the cost of safety inspections, reconditioning and other costs of doing business.



Depending on your area, you might be close to getting what you "need" out of it.

Me? Dealerships work as almost a seperate entity from GM. Think of it like if Sony went out of business, Best Buy would still be around though. We'd just pick up another franchise which our owner is already trying to do since we are moving our 3 different location dealerships to a 40 acre area in the near future. Would be cool if we could pick up a motorcycle franchise though, like a Harley, but unfortunately in Milwaukee, we already have quite a few, and a number of REALLY good/well respected ones.

If you weren't directing that at me, then ignore my mindless banter

I guess with them cutting the 25,000 jobs, that's 25,000 less potential buyers to use the Employee Discount. Passing it on to us "regular" consumers fills some of that void and makes us "surrogate" employees.

The timing of the two is almost uncanny no matter how you look at it though.

Thanks

Last month you could get a Trailblazer for $21,995

this month, same trailblazer is $21,797

GM Employee pricing is great "marketing" and works on vehicles such as the Cobalt SS that there normally aren't any rebates right now.

For other vehicles, you take away the HUGE rebates they once had $4000 on trailblazers now down to $2500, but the marketing aspect of it works in customer's minds.

deals aren't THAT much better then you'd tend to think, get what i mean?
