So the 2011's are finally out, and I went and took a peak at some at the near by dealership. What have people been getting these for? A base 6-speed manual has a sticker of 23k, is there any room to play on these? Is my X-Plan available on these, if so how much does it save? I would like to get a 300.00 a month payment for 60 months with 2k on trade in if possible. Thoughts?

 

Mine stickered for $29,005 as optioned below. Yes, X-plan can be used (I'm using Z-Plan) but I don't recall what it saves you.

 

Yes, you can use X-plan.

Yes there's room to play.

Did you look at the price guide under the stickies?

$300 * 60 = $18000. That's going to be tough even with $2k off for your trade. That would mean you'd need to get the car for $20k including taxes, tags, doc/admin fees AND finance charges. Even if you got a 4% rate, it might be a bit of a challenge.

 

Simple math....300/mo x 60 = 18000 = not gonna happen

plan on at least 400 more likely 450 though with even a few options

 

$18k at 60 months is $331 at 4%.
$20k at 60 months is $369 at 4%.

The car's invoice with dealer holdback and delivery is about $22k. Most people are paying a couple hundred above that with X-plan. Take $2k off for your trade and a little cash and round down to $20k for giggles. You're at $369.

$16250 at 4% for 60 months will get you your $300 payment. You're going to need more down.
