How much of a discount can one expect when buying a demo??? My friend is looking at a Xfire demo with 270 miles on it. Any inputs? Thanks...

 

Hey guys... no inputs on this subject???

 

Don't pay anymore than invoice on a Demo!

 

The following site has a method based on age and milage to determine the proper discount for a used vehicle. Also some good advice about how to be prepared when you purchase a new vehicle...

I work at the dealership and we put several crossfires into demo service and never drove any of them. just so we could get the factory 1500.00 rebate on the cars and pass it on to the consumers call to Reedman langhorne Pa ask for Bob N

 

That's interesting... $1500 rebate for cars that are classified as demo. Why don't dealers do this for all cars? There must be a limit to this (probably based on the number of salesmen or executives of the dealer). Does it work by mileage, and they just fudged the miles? The X-fire is a good candidate for this kind of "bookworkery" (No dealer holdback an all). I was at another dealer Saturday looking at a black automatic. I said I would not be interested until there is a reasonable factory incentive and some negotiating room. He took my name and number and said he would call if anything sprouts up. He then told me that the car was so nice, he'd himself put 100 miles on it. Doh!... that screams demo pricing to me. Any more than 10 miles or so and I says it's a demo. I know he's going to call and offer up something. Wait until I tell him I know about the demo rebate. Heh Heh..I won't bite unless it was ~$700 over invoice, plus the rebate ($700 over dealer cost). Call me cheap. If that's not good enough he'll need to sit on it until June when the weather warms up.
BTW, I can't believe they even sell cars without all-season tires in Wisconsin. this should be a requirement for cars sold in this area. (Not that I'd drive it in the winter, but if you live on the edge of the seasons, it's good in a pinch)

They only allowed us to put demo allowances on three units the mid atlantic zone they also had a holiday rebate on any xfire for a two week window around dec 20 to dec 31 but that ended. I suspect that there will be an auto show rebate of 500.00 because of the upcoming Phila. auto show. We have one black (6 speed)left but now the zone said we can put an additional 500.00 rebate on that so that makes the total rebate 2000.00 without the auto show bonus but the auto show rebate is just speculation and can only occurr during the time the philadelphia auto is open to the gen public and only can be given to customers who buy there cars in the Phila area otherwise known as the MID ATLANTIC REGION there the only dealers who will have the auto show rebate if they infact do such a promotion never the less will sell any one that last demo with no niles on it for 500 above invoice and give you the 2000.00 rebate right now. if any one i intrested they can call me reedman chrys 215-757-4961 ask for bob Nieves by the way i got mine with the demo rebate!

 

Mine has the all season... and I am in WI...
