VW used to have a proviso for extending the warranty on a demo, and may still have:

So there's more ammo for getting the price knocked down on a demo. :P

What do they look like??
I am looking for the relays but can't seem to find them
Thanks in advance for your help
Does anyone have any GMID certificates left? A co-worker of mine is in the market and needs help. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Thank you.
Just read your posting. Which dealer in LA finally accepted the GMID?
Thanks.

You should be able to beat TMV since you are researching, but you may have to work at it a bit harder in the Bay Area. Get some free dealer quotes from the main Edmunds.com page too.

There has been a good increase on base and some options/packages! If you were holding off for the H3X, your looking at $40k for just a H3X with Auto before even adding one option!
Steve, Host
I am ready to lease a H3. Any help will be appreciated.

Can someone validate this advertising fee? I've had dealers try to recoup a few hundred, but the difference between the on-line invoice and what they claim is invoice is about $ 1,200 ????
Based on what I've read, the GMid is the way to go. If someone could hook me up with a GMid it would be much appreciated.
Thanks !

There is no such thing as adding on an advertising fee...just tell them that they should have used the holdback for that, after all that is what GM gives it to them for in part. Stick to your guns. These Hummer salesman are slick and have a great rap. Look up your pricing on Edmunds.com and stick to your guns. They will even tell you that Edmunds is lying and that they are leading car buyers astray...just laugh and say "no worse than carslaesmen so". Their job is to make as much as they can...never show fear or doubt...they are like sharks and can smell the blood!!!!!!! I told our salesman that he could meet our price or we would just wait till July and come back with a GMID.......the thing that made it work was that he knew we meant it and would wait (never seem toooooo excited). So today I drove home my new car that I was indeed VERY excited about and truly didn't think I could wait till July for (I am a girl and we don't wait well LOL).
Hope you get a fair deal and that you lover yours as much as we love ours already!

But instead of arguing with the dealer about ad fees, holdback and all the other line items, you can just focus on the out-the-door price and let the dealer worry about how they want to allocate your money. That way the subject of ad fees never needs to come up. Sounds like you enjoyed the process though! :shades:
Please setup your CarSpace.com page and post some pics, and congrats on the new H3!
Steve, Host
Zero Percent Financing is here !!
Expected the announcement by the 30th, but evidently, it's here now. Check with your dealer.
I'm new to this H3 forum , however i do check into the Chevy Uplander forum as my wife owns one. I have a 2004 Chevy Silverado ext Z-71 and the lease runs out in appox 9 months. I have done the research on the 2007 model and the extra H.P for the new engine is what i'm looking for. Everything about the H3 has sold me on leasing a 2007. What i guess i need is some feedback from current owners on how they like the H3. I have gone over some of the past comments on this forum , but alot of the comments deal with pricing and not too much on what type of problems they have had , if any at all. Any info would be apprecited. Thanks.

Steve, Host
For $ 1,395.00, the dealer should drive over to your house each morning and start the H3 for you. A remote starter?
C'mon.. this is a $ 299.00 maximum item. Go to Circuit city. Your dealer sounds like a thief. But seriously, a remote starter? Does the car get that hot or cold that you can't warm it up or cool it down yourself?
thanks!

I am new here and haven't through the archives, so I apologize if this question has come up already.
I own an '06 H3, bright yellow, every option gorgeous mini-beast, so far I have loved it. That is until I was driving it to work last week and as I got to speed on the highway a faint "hum" started in the area of the cab-lights. As I sped up, the hum turned into a roar. I opened the sun roof and was able to feel the plastic casing or bar across the top that the lights are attached to. That bar was vibrating like heck. The noise alone was enough to drive me crazy, so it was the service road for me all the way to work....15 miles at 45 MPH...arghhh.
Anyway, I took it to the local Chevrolet Dealership, (Waco doesn't have a Hummer dealer) and after a few hours of them looking at it they called and told me that they couldn't fix it. They said that Hummer is supposed to come out with a fix "in the 3rd or 4th quarter of the year"...until then they told me to "deal with it". When I went to pick up my vehicle, I went over the guys desk that had worked on it and told him that I didn't think it was right that I have a 35 thousand dollar vehicle that I can't drive on the highway, and he just wants me to "deal with it". He was very apologetic, but entirely unhelpful. He just repeated that since it was not a safety issue, I would have to put up with the noise until GM decides to fix it.
Have any of you guys had this problem also?
I am just curious.
I really love my truck and I have always been a "GM guy", but this little episode has me boiling.
Any suggestions anybody?
Thanks,
DOwen.
Good luck.
I will contact the corporate heads tomorrow. After being given the "deal with it" line of BS I kinda figured my next option would be dealing directly with Hummer. I hate it that it looks like I will have to raise holy hell with Hummer. It shouldn't be that way, but it is maddening beyond belief to spend thousands of dollars on a vehicle that I can't even drive down a highway.
Thanks again bud,
DOwen.
No, the cab lights are fixed in place.
I spoke to a Hummer dealership in Dallas earlier, and he told me that Hummer is not even offering the cab light option any more, because of this problem. That gives me hope that Hummer is acknowledging the problem at least...
Thanks again,
DOwen.
I drive a lot so its a hard decision, but they look so awesome...
I was priced the following at $33,695 ..minus.. $1500 ..
'06 HUMMER H3. Base Equipment Package. Automatic Transmission W/Stabilitrak Stability Control, Trailer Hitch, Carpeted Floormats, Cargo Area Floormat, Moonsoon Stereo, Tubular Assist Steps, XM Satellite Radio. Black with Ebony Cloth Interior.
Can anyone help me out on how to get more off this vechile? should i expect more off than $1500 (they have a lot of black 06's on their lot) ...
I know 0% is nice.. but i want as much off the sticker too.. (obviously)
(a)... can anyone use that supplier discount? is it legal for me to find one and use it? What other discounts can i get?
(b) I drive a honda is there a competitor discount honda-to-gm?
(c) How much can i demand off sticker? most GM models can go for sticker right (these days)?
(d) Is the MSRP they have quoted too much for a base model?
any help??
Thanks a ton!!
ryan
It is not the base model though. Mine has the sunroof, leather, all the chrome doo-dads and 2 DVD players and screens. Personally, I feel that $33,900 for the base model is a bit high...but mine was used...
Before I bought mine I looked around quite a bit and discovered a huge price difference between dealers. One guy had a base model H3 with 4500 miles on it, and he wanted $34,900. The dealer across the street had a base model H3 also, he was asking $29,900 for it, and it had 5000 miles. The next dealer I went to, about 50 miles away, had the one I bought, and we started haggling at $32,900.
I guess the moral is, shop around..lol.
Try asking in the XM & Sirius Satellite Radio discussion too.
yeah i test drove one... but with 0% and money off.. im leaning towards the 2006... the 2007 would be way too much...
with so many still on dealer lots do you expect more than 0% for 5 years??
----
also you can't really care about it now.. but a used one will bring along an interest rate.. meaning now you can get new ones cheaper than used ones (from what i checked out)
the 'smoke' isn't smoke, but really 'fog'. The cold air from the AC hits the warmer, moist air in the car and causes the water vapor in the car to condense. This is normal, and actually shows that the AC in the H3 can cool the air to well below the dew point. Nothing wrong with your AC, in fact, it's an indication of it working pretty well.
It's sort of a neat effect. enjoy it
