Im looking to purchase a 08 H3 Alpha-X, but i dont know if the quote that my local dealership gave me was any good, I was wondering if anyone else recently purchased one and at what price?
My quote was 47,890 without tax and tags and the $3,000 discount they gave me. So $44,890 without tax and tags. Is $3000 a good discount? It includes the GM $1000. Please help if you can.

 

that sounds good for a brand new one

 

agree with hilljob26. seems like a good price to me. i bought a couple of weeks ago and paid about what they quoted you.

 

I agree. Sounds like a good price bit that also depends on what it is equiped with at that price. What options and/or dealer installed equipment does it have?

 

Mine MSRP'd for 40,210 and I got mine for 35800. Only option was sunroof. Got it three weeks ago.

 

At KBB (kelley Blue book) .com, the average price being paid for a H3 Alpha is approximately $38,000.00.

 

38000.......thats not bad for new.........i cant wait till there are some good used ones out there for 10000 less or so

 

Kelly Blue Book was right on the money when I bought mine. The dealer gave me his invoice and the prices were right there with the KBB ones. What KBB does NOT tell you though is the dealer adds a marketing fee and dealer hold back. Fortuneately KBB explains this in their tutorial about how to buy a used car.

 

Average price being paid is relative. Relative to the area and relative to how the truck is equiped so taking all of that into account it is probably not very relavant or in fact irrelative. The basic fact is that the dealer will never give up his hold back or marketing fee unless the manufacturing is providing some $'s or reason to do so. The approximate difference between a base Alphadealer cost and invoice (about $38,725) is only about $3,100 so on a base vehicle you will probably be pretty lucky to get it for 5% less thansticker not counting mfg incentives. For a loaded Alpha retailing for about $49,100 you will probably be able to get the 5% because the dealer will probably have about $4,500 between invoice and sticker.

 

That's a pretty rare truck, too...Sounds like a fair deal.
