Presidential Cash Back from GM

GM has been steady, if not spectacular, in doling out cash back incentives offers over the last six months. Those incentives are getting a sudden spike this week, according to Bloomberg News: The automaker is offering an additional $1,000 cash back on 15 models in an attempt to further boost sales in the typically difficult winter climate.

The promotion includes the 2008 Saturn Vue and Aura, bumping those vehicles’ offers to $2,500. Also receiving rebates, according to Bloomberg, are Buick Lucerne, Chevrolet Silverado, Pontiac G5, and 2007 Corvettes.

The sales are timed to coincide with Presidents’ Day, and if there’s a better way to honor American history than buying a Buick Lucerne or a Chevy Silverado, we’ve yet to hear of it.

Toyota is only 3,000 vehicles shy of GM. Soon Toyota will be the official #1 Car company. Take into consideration that GM counts all of their fleet vehicles as sales I say Toyota has actually been the #1 Car company for several years now.

GM will have to keep promoting rebates as their vehicles are still inferior to Honda, Toyota and in many cases Nissan. How GM gets off selling the Aveo, Cobalt, and Impala junk is beyond me. I guess when all is said and done price will always find a market.

gene,
All automakers count their fleet vehicles in overall sales.

One thing to remember about GM rebates (Presidents day xtr $1k over $2k cash back - GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab for example)- you can get emails with offers, links to 'build your own' and all kinds of incentives, but if it's NOT on the lot, you're out of luck. Even if you commit to purchasing a new - non-exisiting new model (All Terrain let say) on any GMC lot with in a 500 mile radius and plunk down thousands to 'order' your new truck (which = purchase to me), you still will loose any rebates offers if the new truck delivery is even 1 day after the offer expires. It's a gamble. Then you read GM is loosing $$$ like never before. Go figure!
