Bad Blazer EV off, what am I getting wrong?

[maniacss]

Went to my local Chevy dealer in the suburbs of Chicago this weekend to test drive and look at Blazer EV LT, with 2LT package. Comparing my deal to others I have seen on here it seems I am way off. It appears the biggest issue is they are leasing the car to me at MSRP and most other good deals people are getting discounts. They refused to honor my GM EV Supplier $1000 cash allowance so I am going back to them on that as well as I qualify for a recent college for another $500.

• 12,0000 miles/24 months, $453 a month, $2453 down(first payment, tax, title, fees)
• Blazer LT AWD with the 2LT package, and
• MSRP $52690
• $1000 Costco Rebate
• $1500 Conquest Rebate
• Money factor on deal is .00167

2 years 24 months, $453 a month, $2453 down(first payment, tax, title, fees)

I manually calculated all the numbers in your lease and all calculated numbers in your lease agreement are correct. DAS = 2450.30 and consists of your 1st payment plus a 2000 cap reduction which is in addition to rebates of 2500. Tax, title/reg. fees are capitalized in the lease. The sales tax rate used is 7.00%.

The sell price = MSRP is horrible. You need to check selling prices in your market. Start with LH marketplace. Other sources include Edmunds, TrueCar, etc. Check Edmunds for the MF buy rate, residual factor (dealer used 81%). Is that for 12K miles? You need to vet this data. Also, check for rebates/incentives for which you may qualify. Create a target deal and construct a lease proposal. Email it to the dealer and negotiate via phone/email. Below is an example of a lease proposal…

??? Let me know.

The Chicago area is a tough place to lease.

You’ll probably save yourself a lot of time and effort by just moving on to another dealer if they are at full sticker and won’t honor factory incentives that cost them nothing besides some paperwork on their end

Edited my original post, this 12,000 miles a year.

Yea, the only thing you need to “go back to them on” is your target deal. Make them an offer, if they say no then move on to the next dealer.

You expected to walk in and make a LH deal?

Know your target, run it by the forum, and then make offers remotely to at least 10-15 dealers.

Boss get a LYRIQ instead.

I got a great offer with 4K down 24/10

399

MSRP 74K

I would try to get at least $3500 in dealer discounts (before rebates).
Here’s a dealership who I have worked with on other chevrolet deals.
