Saturn and Pontiac – Get $7000+ Off
In an unusual move today, General Motors let dealers know that they would receive $7000 for each Saturn or Pontiac they still have in inventory.
This is money they will use to provide customer price discounts.
It’s being called a “fire sale.”
As you may know, the Saturn and Pontiac brands have been discontinued by GM. However, dealers still have inventory of 2009 vehicles of these brands.
As we understand it, dealers have until January 4, 2010 to take the deal. The dealers, in effect, become titled owners of the vehicles. Then, the dealers can sell the vehicles after January 4 to customers at huge discounts — up to 46% off MSRP on the less expensive models. Technically, the cars will be “pre-owned” or “used” vehicles since the dealer is the first owner.
If you are in the market for a Saturn or Pontiac, the time to buy is NOW. We like the Pontiac G6 sedan, one of the hottest cars for 2009.
It just doesn’t get any better than this. Brand new cars for fire sale prices.
In many cases, you’ll be able to do better than the $7000 discount when the dealer throws his own discount on top. Understand, they NEED to get rid of these cars ASAP.
What’s the catch?
The catch is that some dealers don’t have much inventory of these vehicles left on their lots. That means you might not have a lot of choice as to models, equipment, and colors. But for $7000+ discount, maybe you don’t care.
Not to worry about warranties and service. GM dealers will continue to have parts, honor warranties, and provide service for Saturns and Pontiacs for years to come.
