GenVibe.com rules, thanks for all the information it was invaluable

Post by 2005Vibe4Wife »

I just wanted to say how much this site helped us when researching and looking to purchase a vibe. We finally found the color we wanted (Neptune ) and bought our vibe yesterday. Here is the breakdown for those still looking for their perfect vibe:2005 Base Model with Power Package Moon and Tunes Package Monotone Paint JobNegotiated price of $16,580Cash Back Rebate -$1,500Conquest Cash Rebate -$1,000GMAC Financing Rebate -$500GM Card Earnings -$2221'92 Honda Civic Trade-in -$1000 (Served us well, 140,000 miles)Sales Tax +$835Title, License, Misc fees +$150 --------FINAL PRICE ~$14,400We will payoff the loan when our first payment is do, that way we keep the $500 GMAC rebate and avoid finance charges. I think this was a pretty good price. I am curious about what others are paying for 2005's.Price information was the only thing I wish GenVibe had more info on. That is why I posted this information. I hope it helps someone.

Thanks for the info.As for posting price information to help others - thats a hard thing to do because of all the options you can get, new or used, some get GM employee rebates etc, and pricing is different in Canada. It won't be the same situation everytime someone buys and so the prices will always be different.Edit: Also the base price and options price should be available from the pontiac (and/or GM) website or gmcanada.com (for us canucks), if thats what you were looking for.

Sounds like you got a pretty good deal. I agree, pricing info is tough to come by. It is really nice to have a general idea of the out the door price before even looking/considering a new vehicle. The dealerships like to have all the info/ advantage when it comes to $$$$. My 04 was 14,999 after rebates and negotiating. Base, auto, two-tone, power package.

The MSRP on my GT was 22,040. I got $2400 on trade with a minimum down. When all was said and done, I walked out paying $15,089.
