Test Drive Today... Wish Me Luck!

It's the last day of winter and a gorgeous day for a test drive, so I want to give the '05 at my dealership a whirl and start the process of negotiation... I think it was nicer when they DIDN'T offer a bunch of incentives and crap! Instead, I have to start the week-long process of dancing with sales guys.

I figure I'll take my gf's car up there to buy some easy time with the trade-in... Not to mention my car is a f-ing mess at the moment.

Good luck, but so you know, there isnt really any negotiation at Saturn dealerships.

Technically, there is no negotiating price. However, there are a lot of hidden incentives available. So they can't take 1500 off the price, but they CAN give you 1500 in coupons.

Either way, that's cash in my pocket

It always helps when you got a GM family discount... Usually around 1500 off!

Yup, they pulled $6000 in incentives and discounts for me. You can also have them drop the warranty for a shorter one if you don't need a 5/60,000.
