If you really like xm, like I do, get a better deal -- just go to their web site and pay $500 for 5 years. Do the math.
If you renew for $60 this year, but then have to pay $13 / month for the next 4 years, you've spent $684 altogether.
If you just pay for the 5 years now, that's only $500. That's because if you order now, you can lock that price in for 5 years.
Depends on whether you're convinced you'll still have the Vette and you'll still like XM in 5 years. I'm sold.

Don't confuse us with all that fancy math.

How many are going to keep their vette for 5 years? Is it transferrable, or do you know?

$60 deal seems to be dead, but I just got the $77 promo. Took two phone calls, and I don't know exactly what I did to make it work. I just said that I was looking to extend, and some of my friends had recently gotten the $60/year deal, and that's what I wanted. She said she couldn't do it, but said she could give me a year at $77. She did ask if I had a promotion code when I first mentioned I wanted to extend my service, but never asked for it.
XM doesn't make sense to me at $15/month, but at $77/year (~$6.50/month), I'm happy.

Try for the $60.00 before even mentioned the $77. But you need to do it before your trial period ends. Tell them that you are a new subscriber and that you just purchased your car and have never had XM in the past.
If that doesn't work, then go for the $77. It doesn't hurt to try.

I received a message on my recorder from XM telling me about the special $77.00 promo. I just called and said that I received their phone message and gave them my radio xm ID # and all was taken care of. I had let my service expire about a month ago so I could get the special promo.

XM Confusion
I just spoke to XM Radio and they told me I can have the $60 extention--but only when my free 3-month trial is over. They wouldn't take my money now. So I have to call back July 21.
BTW, I already have XM in my Cadillac CTS-V. In the 13 months I've had it, I've really learned to like it. I got a 2-year deal for about $8 month when my 3-month period was up (that was when XM was $9.95 month).

I agree with you and did the same thing...not to mention, if you do sign up for the long term price breaks, if you do sell the car after 2 years (or however long) they will send you a pro-rated refund on the service. Can't go wrong!
