GM “Employee Pricing for All” Explained
Despite swearing up, down and sideways that Toe Tag sales were a thing of the past, GM started a new “employee pricing for everyone” sale yesterday. It runs through September second. At least. All the new pricing info is locked and loaded on TrueDelta. Every GM model [”91 vehicles found“] is included in the EPFE sale, even the Corvette and Pontiac G8. The “employee discount” is $75 less than it was three years ago– no big deal. But Saab and Saturn now share the regular GM formula; they had their own employee pricing formulas the last time around. This means that Saabs are priced slightly higher than before, while most Saturns drop by a few hundred bucks. (Employee pricing is especially helpful with Saturns, as many dealers normally insist on charging full sticker.) With the other GM brands, you can often negotiate a price not too far above the employee price anyway. GM shaved rebates by $1k and even $1,500 in a few cases. Rebates actually increased by $250 for the last next big thing, the Lambda crossovers. The most heavily discounted vehicle: the Saab 9-7X. The Saablazer carries an $8k rebate on top of the employee price. If low-interest financing is your thing, fuhgeddaboutit. GM removed zero-percent financing from most models; 0.9 is now the lowest you’ll find (except on a Hummer). For many models the “special GMAC rate” is now 6.9 percent. As in “get your financing elsewhere.”
