How am i doing? any room to improve on this?

The discount should be stronger - it’s currently 9.8% - you should be able to push for more before the incentives. Find some cars on cargurus…it can sometime be tricky to find dealers in MI that are advertising without the GM employee or family discounts, but spend a bit of time and see what you can get.

How many dealers have you contacted?

I have a talked to 5 or so most of the dealers are very low on 2018 stock so it’s making it a little difficult.
Looking at Explorer, Durango, Traverse also having a hard time getting around 275 on any of these with awd heated seats.

Looks like there are over 25 dealerships within 100 miles of you - I think you need to check out more dealerships. Autotrader.com shows that about half of the available AWD Acadias within 100 miles of you are 2018’s. Maybe it’s harder finding the SLE’s with the heated seats.

Here is one vehicle with a big discount. I would contact them to see how the discount breaks out - they don’t mention employee pricing.

I’m heading to another dealer tomorrow on lunch. Sounds like he might be able to give me a better deal. Talked to my brother in law he’s able to get me a executive employee pin.

Glad you got the executive employee pin…not sure how it works, but I’m sure it will help. Depending on how it works, I wouldn’t mention that you have it until you’ve got a really great dealer discount.

Generally, I think the negotiations should be done via email until you’re getting close to finishing the deal. It’s hard to drive to 25 dealerships, but very easy to email 25 dealerships. Some dealerships like to see people in the flesh or at least on the phone before giving up their best prices. I would not travel dealer to dealer in person to try to get better numbers.

Did you confirm the MF and residuals here: https://forums.edmunds.com/discussion/46779/gmc/acadia/2018-gmc-acadia-lease-deals-and-prices/p8

It looks like the info you have and the info on Edmunds may be inconsistent. Confirm the Edmunds info has the proper trim and AWD vs. FWD. Make sure you’re not paying a marked up MF.

The executive pin allows you to stack the current incentives + conquest . I bought my Acadia from him he’s looking to deal.

Yea I just dropped a comment over there asking again for the sle-2. My options 1 Acadia or edge at this point. I found a dealer with a bunch of sle-2 demos but they are dealing :confused:
