Good morning. Deals on these can still bad had this month, I signed this yesterday, just have to find the right dealership. I reached out to about 20-30 dealers within a 400 mile radius.
This is a $119k msrp loaner in our second favorite color. The one pay include whatever the horrendous california tags are for this car ($1000+ I assume) and my 10.5% tax. The dealer has a baked in “premier ultimate vehicle protection” which covers tire/wheel, paintless dent repair, windshield chip repair (1 full replacement covered) and key replacement. Dealer also let me put the entire one pay on the GM card without fees, which should get me a huge amount of rewards points. Bonus to the GM card is 9 months of no interest, so I will leave the cash in my high yield credit union account and gain about $300-400 interest in that time. Dealer even delivered the car to my house from 2 hours away.
I had Costco executive, GM supplier and the GM credit card sign up incentives
I’m not sure on the exact number. I’ll know once I receive the copies of the contract. They don’t do e-sign at this dealer. The delivery guys brought the contract for wet ink signatures, finalized on my kitchen counter. We agreed on a number and it is to the penny on the dollar amount.
That’s the best I can come up with at the moment. The dealer fees section is the vehicle protection program that was baked in. Government fees is about what the tags should be, Ca DMV calculator says $1000, likely to be more. There is something GM is passing to these dealers for this month that makes up enough for the residual drop on these. One dealer SM (not the one I leased from) said it was $6500, not sure how true that is. I targeted 3X SUV specifically because they only took a 6% residual drop from September numbers and the money factor dropped by .00040 as well.
I guess the calculator doesn’t show the ratefinder parts I selected. It is the dealer end ctp cash that @jsingh5292 posted further up. I have no doubt that those are in this deal.
If you are a SDG&E customer there is a new (at least to me) rebate program.
“SDG&E customers can receive up to a $4,000 rebate when purchasing or leasing an eligible pre-owned Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) or Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV).”
Thanks, its not as high quality as my amg eqs, but the cool factor is much higher and it puts a smile on our faces. Just need to figure out what accessories to spend the $1600ish in gm points once they clear and become available.
Yeah I am in the same boat. GM Rewards owes me cashback before they changed to barclays so I can claim cashback for up to $5,000 so I put entire car on my Barclays card and will be redeeming the points against it LOL.
Look into the Tesla Adapter, Transparent Roof panels, tints if you dealer has someone in house
New to the forum, and leasing in general. I’ve been looking for a deal like this, would you say it’s easier to look for them by myself or am I better off just looking for a booker?
It will take having all the incentives; costco, gm supplier and gm rewards card sign up are what I qualified for. If you happen to be a first responder or veteran, that will take a bit more off. You have to be willing to reach out and negotiate will a lot of dealers and find the right one to make deals like this happen. This will eat up a ton of time and can get frustrating, but myself and plenty of guys here enjoy the hunt. You could check swapalease and see if there is anybody on there trying to get out of one.
