Topic says wait until 10/4/02 do you mean 9/4/02? Just want to make sure I did not misss anything in the letter.

Thanks for the heads up. :cool:

Ken,

The program says "THIS RETAIL CONSUMER CASH/APR/DEALER CASH INCENTIVE PROGRAM IS
AVAILABLE ON DELIVERIES TO RESIDENTS IN THE WESTERN REGION ONLY." What is included in the western region?

Ken Fichtner

Ooops...in my haste to break the news I screwed up the headline. I am glad someone reads this stuff though!

The headline should have said "WAIT until 9/4/02"

Each region announces the same program but sometimes some regions may be heavy on a specific line i.e. Cavalier and therefore they will increase the consumer rebate or add a dealer rebate. The Western region report will give you the same info as the other regions at this time.

luvinc5

interesting news

PREDATR

When are they going to up the ante on the GM card bonuses? I've got at least 1500 stock piled.

YELLOHHH

What deals are out there to be had on any remaining 2002's?

Greg
:cool:

Ken Fichtner

To recap the programs for Corvettes as offered by GM effective today, 9/4/02:

2002 Corvette
$1000 rebate or your choice of NO special financing

2003 Corvette
$0 rebate or your choice of special financing:
0.0% for 36 months
2.9% for 48 months
3.9% for 60 months

irfgt

That's really great. I bought a 2001 Chrysler Sebring Convertible and a couple weeks later they increased the Warranty to 7/70 on cars bought after mine. Now I buy a new 2003 Corvette and pay normal financing rates and after I buy they offer the low rates. It ain't fair!!!!!!! :mad :mad :mad

2ndZ06

irfgt,

I feel your pain :cry and frustration :mad . This is the second time GM has done this to me. Last year my 2002 that I ordered came in AFTER the 0% financing ended but BEFORE they announced the $2002 cash back deal. This year my ordered 2003 came in BEFORE they announced any incentives available on 2003! :smash:

I guess I have bad luck on ordering cars. One of my friends told me not to go to Vegas :lol:

Our cases still aren't as bad as what Toyota did a few years back. They dropped the MSRP on the Supra turbo $10k one year before they quit making them.:crazy: Can you imagine buying a car and then the next model year comes out and it is the same car as yours but costs $10k less?:eek:

Jeff
