2013 SGM 500

Hey guys/gals,

Have a possible opportunity on an incoming SGM GT500. Dont have too many details on it yet, but he's gonna send me the sticker on it. Dealer of course promises he'll try to get me the best deal possible but any advice on ways or methods to ensure I get the best deal?

I spoke to the SM and he seemed like a prude, non-negotiable at all. Won't even let you test drive at all! I know it's a specialty car, but do you really have to look at it only and then sign the line without driving it? Of course I can only imagine with all the reviews I've read, but still.

Another dealer kind of local has a DIB 500 with SVT and everything. Same thing though, above MSRP. No incentive rebates or anything. Not even military appreciation discount as with their other vehicles. I'm kind of thinking The Lord is doing this on purpose to keep me out of trouble!

If you pay over msrp you will lose money. My friend bought his 2012 at xplan pricing and sold it for zero loss. The extra charge is completely dealer added for no other reason but because they think they can.

On a 2012?? It's not that they couldn't, they wouldn't. Find a dealer that will accept xplan.

You sure it wasn't just the dealer banging you? But not positive.
