way too enthusiastic

Sorry everyone for paying a premium.. Two issues welll three.. I showed way to much enthusiasm for a car I wasn't expecting to buy.. I don't even buy Altoids this fast.. So, they had me.. It was a refused order car that was just sitting on the display floor.. Could have gone in days if i didn't jump...(how high you ask??) $1500.00. But, I felt since I loved it and our trade in was very good.. I could use the premium price paid car later on when I needed some thing done right..

Live and learn, but drive what you want.. it could alll be over tomorrow..

As one who had more than $500 (dealer fees alone was $600) above invoice, I can tell you that the time I have had the car vs the length of the wait if I had ordered it, the difference in price has paid for itself. Above MSRP/months you would have waited = cost 2 you (sound right?)

Paid $1575 above MSRP and believe me it was well worth it and I would do it again rather than have to wait not knowing if my original order would or would not have come in. And what if it didn't come in and I was shut out of a 2006??? No thanks, Lp

Nice deal. What's GMPP pricing anyway?

This poll was doing very well when it was on the front page.

The way the software works is that the poll with the newest creation date in the Polls section is put on the front page. No, you can't create one directly in the Polls section, create it in some appropriate forum, then, if it's an interesting Poll, one of the Moderators might pick it up and move it to the Polls section.

I paid $1000 over MSRP. I thought that was a bargain since I talked to about 10 dealers and most were charging $3000 - $4000 over sticker.

I think he is referring to what they call program cars. Been driven for anything up to about 7,000mi. and then sold to employees at a larger discount.

I ended up actualy paying less than MSRP because when the car finally got here, it had the wrong seats from the factory. There wasn't a way to mark two boxes on the survey. I got about 875. bucks knocked off MSRP and had 3,487.00 built up on my GM Card. I've been with this salesperson from Chevy to Pontiac for 12 years. I've been told I have the cheapest Solstice ever sold. I think they may be right! Hooray

Just got out paper work and realized my dealer never added the destination fee on the first page to the total on the final talley. I think I'll go buy more stuff.
