6/19 Update: Dealer sent some paperwork over for me to re-sign this past week. Couple odometer statements since we didn’t notice the contract had dropped a digit, GM Supplier for friends paperwork, and an updated lease contract with updated tax numbers resulting in a $13/mo drop in my monthly payment.
Just sharing the deal I’ve been working on for the past week and signed/picked up yesterday. Was hunting for a 2024 retired loaner for the extra $3k but nobody else was able to beat this deal on a new one even with that additional rebate.
MSRP: $108849
Sales Price: $90200
Rebates: $500 GM Card*, $1250 Costco Exec, $2000 Supplier for Friends**
Monthly Payment (tax in): $674, First month waived
Due at Signing: $1000
*New Barclays GM Card application process was a mess. The wife applied this time since I did it for the Blazer last year. Was unable to get instant approval with 860 credit and had to spend an additional 45 minutes to an hour on hold with customer service to figure out what happened and correct it. It looks like the application site calls out gross monthly income but it transfers into their system as annual. So, unless you are truly ballin’ (we are not), it’ll probably flag for debt to income concerns.
**Supplier discount was not mine. Dealer provided their own pin to save themselves some money from the discount negotiated. I realize this means I pay more in upfront taxes but the final numbers were more than acceptable. Don’t sweat the details.
Is it really “new” though? 2025’s hit dealer lots almost a year ago, so any remaining 2024’s (like this one) must be loaners or sat for a year on the lot. Either way, it’s a solid deal — been seeing far better deals on 2X’s than 3X’s.
New in terms of the timer not already running on the warranty and therefore no concerns with a 36 month term which had better numbers when I compared vs 24. This particular vehicle was on their lot for 370 days. It’s no surprise that this was the VIN that they were willing to discount the most. I didn’t see any must-have upgrades with the 2025s but it is something to note that there isn’t the first month payment waiver on those.
2025’s are identical to 2024’s — so it’s totally worth going for the much cheaper 2024 MY if available. 2026’s do have minor differences however. Good work on finding a near unicorn deal!
