I understand that Saturn has a no haggle policy on pricing. (My first car was a
1993 Saturn SL2.) My wife and I are in the market for a new car, and after doing internet research, going to the local car show, and finding out about the $3500 off incentive ( I believe it ends on May 31) we decided on a 2004 Saturn VUE FWD V6. There are a couple of issues that I would like to present to this newsgroup:-Do you know of any Saturn dealerships that , AFTER you've priced everything that you want on a particular vehicle, try to tack on stuff like "environmental protection packages", pre-tinted windows, etching and hand-painted sports stripes, etc. They said that it was done at the dealership and not at the factory -hence the increase. This would have tacked on between 600 to 1100 dollars (!) on the car. I was a little dismayed with the salesman, when he somehow miraculously got his hand on a list of VUEs within a two hundred mile radius.
-How have your experiences been with Saturn dealerships? No haggle? No malarky? Anything like my experience? Will they try to tack on 10 dollar rust-proofing for an extra 500 dollars??
Any comments would be GREATLY appreciated!
