2010 Corvettes

• No general rebates or special financing offers available.  Depending on where you live, you may qualify for $500 Auto Show Bonus Cash (if there's an Auto Show in your area).  You may also qualify for GM Supplier pricing if you qualify for the Military Discount or belong to a Credit Union.

2009 Corvettes

• Option 1:  $4,000 Customer Rebate is available, in addition to any Auto Show Bonus Cash or other discounts you may receive (as indicated above).
   
• Option 2:  0% Financing for up to 72 months for qualified buyers through GMAC.  You cannot take both the rebate and the financing offer, it is an either/or option.

Plain and simple:  last year’s Corvette sales were the worst since 1961.

Yes, this extensive drop may very well be attributed to the current state of the economy (and automotive industry) at large. But, is this decline completely reminiscent of the economy?

After much research, Edmunds’ AutoObserver.com thinks it’s a combination of two things: down economy AND loss of consumer interest in sports cars.

In 2008, the Corvette was one of the best selling sports cars around, consuming more than 6% of the sports car market share.

Just last year, the Corvette declined 43.8% in sales! Yes, the economy didn’t help, but should we also place blame on the close competitor – Chevy Camaro? Not according to Edmunds.com Senior Analyst Jessica Caldwell, who states, “Over 60,000 Camaros were sold last year, and many of the buyers are unlikely to have chosen another sports car in its place had it not been on the market.”

So, maybe this legendary American sports cars’ sales decline can be attributed to a loss in consumer “flair” after all?  What do you think?

From now until February 2, 2010, GM Cardmembers who receive a special direct mail piece will be eligible to earn special bonus offerings toward the purchase or lease of ONE new GM vehicle.

• Individuals that carry the GM Extended Family Card (as of October 31, 2009) will be given $750 in bonus earnings. These earnings can be combined with other GM incentives, such as the GM employee, supplier or dealership discount.

• GM Cardmember customers may be eligible to receive bonus earnings with GM’s January Topped-Off Earnings Retail Program. As of November, customers with base earnings between $10 - $1,500 will be topped off to $2,000, and those with earnings between $1,501 - $2,500 will be topped off to $3,000. Though one’s base earnings may fluctuate due to exchanges, purchases or merchandise returns, the bonus earnings will remain constant. This offer cannot be used with other GM incentives.

Both offers are nontransferable and may be utilized toward the purchase or lease of a new and unused 2009 or 2010 Corvette (not ZR1).

NOTE: Bonus offerings for BOTH promotions will not be valid unless the direct mail piece with the unique "Bonus Earnings Code" is redeemed upon purchase/lease.

For questions, information or to manage your earnings:

Just Announced are Chevy's offers for January, in the marketing play they are calling "Owner Loyalty."  The program is primarily driven by previous GM owners getting special discounts on new vehicles.  We've outlined the changes to the Corvette incentives programs below:

2010 Corvettes (not ZR1):

• $1,000 Rebate for current owners of a 1999 or newer GM vehicle (including all the previous GM brands that have since stopped production).  You are not required to trade in the vehicle, and the eligibility can be transferred within the household.

2009 Corvettes (not ZR1):

• $4,000 Rebate if you plan to pay cash or provide your own financing.  This rebate is stackable with the rebate below for current GM owners.
   
• $1,000 Rebate for current owners of a 1999 or newer GM vehicle (including all the previous GM brands that have since stopped production).  You are not required to trade in the vehicle, and the eligibility can be transferred within the household.
   
• 0% Financing for up to 72 months for qualified customers.  The owner loyalty $1,000 rebate does not qualify if you take the 0% financing offer.

2009 / 2010 Corvette ZR1

• No rebates or incentivized financing is available.

As always, we are here to provide you with up-front, no hassle pricing on any Corvette available nationwide, or a special order vehicle you'd like to have configured exactly the way you'd like.  Please call us at (888) 875-0728 or leave us a comment, which will be kept private, and we'll be glad to give you a no-obligation quote on a discounted Corvette for you.

Now is the time to buy.  Monday marks the end of Chevy's Red Tag Event.

Here's a quick summary of what's available on Corvettes and what expires tomorrow!

The biggest bang for your buck is 0% financing for up to 72 months, which is available with approved credit through GMAC on all 2009 Corvettes (except the ZR1).

In addition to the financing, you can also receive an additional $500 Rebate (the alternative to the 60 day return program "May the Best Car Win"). 

Cash buyers can take these offers instead:

(the alternative to the 60 Day Return Guarantee)

on some inventory (dealers have a list to check).

Buyers of in-stock 2010 Corvettes also qualify for the $500 Bonus Cash alternative, and in some cases, the $1000 Old Invoice Bonus Cash.  0% Financing is not available on the 2010 model.

Please act quickly!  These offers expire at close of business, Monday, January 4th.

Click to see our inventory of available Corvettes.  And, by the way, we are offering GM Employee Pricing to everyone on our leftover 2009's!  That will save you thousands of dollars all by itself!  Call 1-888-875-0728 to discuss.  Leave a message if not answered immediately.  Thank you.

General Motors is finally stepping up to the plate with an innovative program to get conquest customers into the showroom.  If you haven't yet heard, they are offering a 60 Day Satisfaction Guarantee through November 30th, 2009.

What this means is that if you take delivery of a new Chevy (say a Corvette for example), you keep it for 30 days and if you don't like it, you have between 31 and 60 days to return it to the dealership you purchased it from.  Chevy (and us) are confident you're going to love the new GM car you choose, and we're standing behind them.

The are a few stipulations to the program, including any negative equity, accessories, service contracts or any other additions that might be to the vehicle's purchase price must be paid for by the customer when they return the vehicle.  In other words, GM isn't picking up your negative equity or your accessories.  Other than that, for the most part, you are free and clear to turn it in.  If you have a payment during the time you have the vehicle (which you will), you need to pay that.  You can't be late in your contract.

If you're interested in more information, you can always call or email us at CorvetteBlog.  If you want to see GM's commercial about the promotion, view it after the jump.

May the Best Car Win.

GM has just launched their semi-annual Car Care promotion they affectionately call Goodwrench & Go. It is a great program, incentivized by GM, to encourage customers to come into dealerships to get oil changes and discounted services for $39.95 or less.

This time around, customers receiving the direct mail piece from GM are offered a $15 discount card that they can use at any GM dealership on a service of $100 or more. In addition, each customer who receives the mail piece will also get a voucher for $750 off on a new 2009 Chevy Vehicle (excluding ZR-1) or $500 off a new 2010 Chevy that can stack with all of our other rebates and incentives except the stand alone APR offers. It's a nice little program and offer for the millions of people that receive the mailing (which should be hitting your mailboxes this week).  You can also transfer the offer to another family member or anyone in the household.

We are offering the program for all of our GM customers, but remember that the published pricing of $39.95 or less does not include Corvettes.  Our Synthetic oil change package is priced at $54.95.

The promotion runs from September 4th until November 2nd at participating dealers.

As a reminder, we have 2 ZR1 orders available.  Call us today if you're interested in placing a deposit to custom build the ZR1 of your dreams!  (888) 875-0728.

We've been taking a lot of calls lately wondering about what discounts are currently available on Corvettes.  That said, we thought we'd take a quick minute to recap all of the current offers that you may qualify for:

2009 Corvettes

• GM's Open House promotion gives everyone the GM Supplier Discount pricing
• If you qualify for the GM Employee Discount (GMS), you are eligible for $500 off
• If you have a Nissan or Infinity in the household (2000 or newer), you are eligible for $1,500 off
• If the Corvette you're interested in is an "old invoice" unit, or one that has been in a dealer's inventory for a long time, you are entitled to $1,000 off.  There's no way for a consumer to check on those units that qualify, so if you are interested, please contact the selling dealership and inquire about the program.
• 2009 Corvette ZR1s do not qualify for any of the above programs, except the "Old invoice" program, but most likely none of those would qualify either.

2008 Corvettes

• $4,000 Customer Cash Rebate is available, or you can take 5.9% financing (with approved credit) for up to 60 months.
• 0% Financing is available up to 60 months or 3.9% financing up to 72 months (with approved credit), but you give up all of the other rebates available except the GM Open House Supplier Discount Pricing (described below)
• GM's Open House promotion gives everyone the GM Supplier Discount pricing
• If you qualify for the GM Employee Discount (GMS), you are eligible for $2,000 off
• If you have a Nissan or Infinity in the household (2000 or newer), you are eligible for $1,500 off
• Every 2008 Corvette should qualify as an "old invoice" unit, so you are entitled to $1,000 off.  There's no way for a consumer to check on those units that qualify, so if you are interested, please contact the selling dealership and inquire about the program.

Incentives and Rebates can be confusing.  If we can help at all, please don't hesitate to give one of our staff a call at (888) 875-0728.  Remember we also have a number of 2009 Corvettes & Z06's available, all priced below GM Supplier Pricing.

Hot off the presses!  GM has now announced another rebate that will run through the end of the month for current GM owners!  If you own or lease any GM product (1999 or newer), you will receive $1,000 Bonus Cash!

This rebate is stackable with all available Bonus Cash and the Spring Car Care rebates (that we mentioned yesterday).  However, it will NOT stack with the APR offer (on the 2008 Corvettes for example).

If you're looking for a new or pre-owned Corvette, give us a call at (888) 875-0728 and we'll be glad to help you.  We are so thankful this Memorial Day weekend for all of our readers and satisfied customers around the United States!

Happy Memorial Day!

Posted By Ryan In Buying a Corvette , Corvette Dealers , Corvette News , Corvette Purchase Incentives | 0 Comments Permalink

Well, wouldn't you know that GM has announced their annual "Memorial Day Sale" just 2 days before the actual Memorial Day weekend begins.  The sale this year really doesn't seem to have the 'bang for the buck' as sales in years past.  Perhaps that's because GM is offering 0% financing on many models right now, or perhaps that's because they know a bankrupcy is on the horizon and this is a last ditched effort for quick sales before they announce it.  Either way, the sale this year only improves the deals on 3 models:  the Cobalt, the Impala and the Silverado.  Corvette is left out in the dark.

So let's not waste time talking about the other models when we really only care about Corvettes here on CorvetteBlog.  We thought we take a quick minute to again summarize the current offers that are available:

On 2009 Corvettes:

• Some of you may be eligible for $500 off with the GM Spring Car Care discount.  There was a mailer that you may have gotten that had the discount as part of it.  If you don't know if you qualify or not, your local dealer can look up your name and address and see if you qualify for the $500 off.  Expires 6/30/09.
   
• Some dealers may be using Corvette Bonus Certificates.  This is a program that gives dealers the ability to stack up to 6 $500 certificates on a Corvette sale.  The number of certificates a dealer has is based on a number of factors including current inventory and total Corvette availability.  Expires on 6/1/09.

On remaining 2008 Corvettes:

• $2000 Bonus Cash is available if you don't take any incentivized financing options.  Expires on 6/1/09.
   
• 0% Financing is available with approved credit for up to 60 months, or 2.9% Financing is available for up to 72 months.  Expires on 6/1/09.
   
• Again, if you qualified for the Spring Car Care discount (mentioned above), you can stack that with a 2008 Corvette purchase.  Expires 6/30/09.

We have a nice selection of 2009 Corvettes still available for purchase, all priced at below MSRP and GM Supplier Discounts!  For more details on our inventory, you can click the link at the top of CorvetteBlog, or call us direct at (888) 875-0728.  We ship nationally and will pass on all of the savings from Detroit right to you!

GM announed that they were planning to reduce production to align with market demand, meaning that many assembly plants will be ideled in the coming weeks so that inventory can catch up with demand.  We've just learned that the Bowling Green Assembly Plant, home to the Corvette, will be one of the most severly impacted plants that GM has.

The plant will be down 9 weeks.  The downtime weeks are as follows:  5/4, 5/11, 6/1, 6/8, 6/29, 7/6, 7/13, 8/3, 8/10.  These new operating plans have also revised the buildout and startup schedules for the 2009 and 2010 Corvettes.

The new revised buildout for the last 2009 Corvettes will be July 28th, 2009.  The new revised startup for the 2010 Corvettes will be July 29th, 2009.

Keep checking CorvetteBlog.com for any updates related to the Bowling Green Assembly Plant.

Great News Just Announced!  GM has expanded the current Lease Pull Ahead Program from 2 months to 4 months.  That means if you are in a GMAC SmartLease or SmartBuy contract, we will pay up to 5 of your remaining payments if your lease expires no later than 10/31/2009.

Previous to today's announcement, GM was only covering 2 payments, so this is a nice incentive for those of you who have been holding out to have more of your payments waived, or to get out of your lease before you go over mileage.

Also, remember if you're in a lease and purchase a new Corvette, you'll receive $500 in addition to any other incentivized financing or special discounts being offered with GM's Lease to Purchase cash.  **Note, you do not need to purchase to get this discount; you can lease again through a bank such as US Bank.**

If you have any questions about your options, what you might qualify for, or want to price out some payments on a new 2008 or 2009 Corvette, call us today at 888-875-0728 and we'll be glad to help!

This morning Chevrolet announced a Customer Satisfaction Program for some 2008 and 2009 Corvette Convertibles.  This is a program similar to a recall but not as formal.  If you're having the problem, and have a vehicle that qualifies, you can have the repair done at no cost by installing a newly designed retainer bracket.  Here's the details...

Certain 2008 and 2009 model year Corvette manual or power roof Convertible vehicles may have a condition in which the fabric roof cover may begin to separate from its retainer bracket near the top edge of the windshield.  When the vehicle reaches speeds of approximately 100 mph or greater, the roof cover could begin to pull away from the retainer bracket and, depending on the speed of the vehicle and duration at that speed, could tear into the rear glass.  If this were to occur, the headliner would remain intact and the roof cover would not separate from the vheicle.

Vehicles Involved:  Only vehicles built within the following VIN breakpoints are involved:

• 2008 models from VIN breaks: 85117774 through 85135284
• 2009 models from VIN breaks:  95100002 through 95112678

Dealers will confirm whether your vehicle is eligible for the repair, as not ALL vehicles will be eligible.  GM will send a letter to all customers that are included in this program and all repairs must be made before May 31st, 2010.

A copy of the letter can be found after the jump.

Now is the time to take advantage of some very special savings on our remaining 2008 models.  Here's another example of how we can save you thousands!

Our Corvettes are NEVER stored outdoors, and this one has only been driven in our showroom since received from the original ordering dealer (less than 20 miles away).  Here are the details...

The vehicle is a 2008 Corvette Coupe 1LT (Machine Silver Metallic / Ebony) with an MSRP of $53,035.  We are offering the vehicle for the discounted price before taxes of $43,000!  This price assumes you don't take advantage of 0% financing.  If you wanted to take 0% financing, your price would be $47,000 (the $4,000 rebate available doesn't qualify with 0%), which is still a hell of a deal.  Here is a list of the vehicle's options:

• CC3  Removable Transparent Roof Panel
• FE9  Federal Emissions
• F55  Magnetic Selective Ride Control
• LS3  6.2 Liter 436 HP Engine
• MX0  6 speed Automatic Transmission with paddle shift
• NPP  Dual Mode Exhaust
• QX3  Chrome Aluminum Wheels

This discounted pricing is available this month only!  This is not a demonstrator unit and it only has 21 miles on it.  We will be glad to get you a finalized price including taxes and fees depending on wherever you live and what your tax rate is, in addition to discussing shipping options or VIP delivery here in Detroit, Michigan.

For more information, give us a call at (888) 875-0728 or leave a comment, which will be kept private.  Take a look at all of the pictures of the vehicle after the jump below.

Many of you have probably seen the national advertising GM is doing for their Spring Car Care promotion called GM Goodwrench & Go.  It is a great program, incentivized by GM, to encourage customers to come into dealerships to get oil changes and discounted services for $39.95 or less.

Customers receiving the direct mail piece from GM will be offered a $15 discount card that they can use at any GM dealership.  In addition, each customer who receives the mail piece will also get a voucher for $500 off on a new Chevy Vehicle (excluding ZR-1) that can stack with all 'coof our other rebates and incentives.  It's a nice little program and offer for the millions of people that receive the mailing (which should be hitting your mailboxes this week).

We are offering the program for all of our GM customers, but remember that the published pricing of $39.95 or less does not include Corvettes.  Because Corvettes use synthetic oil the pricing will be higher at dealerships.  Keep that in mind when you think you're going in to get the oil changed on your Vette.

The promotion runs from April 1st until June 30th, 2009 at participating dealers.

What can we really say about March sales?  There is good news amongst the doom and gloom.  With the weather getting nicer in many parts of the country and with incentives (including 0% on 2008 models) helping to move inventory, we can only hope that we have turned the corner and are going to see some additional growth in sales over the coming months.

March saw a 56% decline in sales versus 2008's figures, although there were more Vettes delivered in March than in any month since September of last year.  That's a bonus.  In total, however, 2009 sales since January 1st are still showing a 55% decline against 2008. 

Here's the breakdown:

• Option 2:  Take $4,000 off in rebate money
• Option 3:  Take $2,000 off in rebate money and get 5.9% for up to 60 months

2009 Corvettes:  CorvetteBlog is offering GM Supplier Pricing or less to everyone on all of our 2009 Corvettes while GM is offering these options as well:

• Option 1:  Take $1,000 in rebate money
• Option 2:  Take 4.9% financing for up to 60 months
• Option 3:  Take $500 in rebate money if you have a lease vehicle (any make or model) in your household expiring before 10/31/2009.  This option can be combined with either option 1 or 2.

Call us today at (888) 875-0728 to get detailed pricing on any Corvette we currently have available.  We would be more than happy to help you in any way we can.  We also will locate the Corvette you want nationally should we not have it and put together a deal for you.

As we all know, car manufacturers are feeling the blunt of the market now with car sales at an all time low. In an effort to appeal more to consumers, General Motors has issued an increased warranty coverage on Certified Pre-Owned vehicles.

This new warranty will come standard on all GM Certified Used Vehicles or Saturn Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles as of September 13th. When a consumer now purchases a certified pre-owned vehicle, the new program offers a 12-month or 12,000 miles bumper-to-bumper warranty.  This includes all Certified Corvettes.

Now, maybe you’re thinking, what’s bumper-to-bumper mean? Well, the warranty will cover the entire vehicle excluding items that wear down over time and usage, such as tires and brakes. Pretty good deal, if you ask us.

GM also offers a powertrain limited warranty of 5-years or 100,000 miles on all 2007 or later vehicles. This package is exclusive and also provides consumers with 24-hour roadside assistance, free history report on a vehicle, 117-point inspection, and a customer satisfaction guaranteed period.

For further information, click below to learn more about GM Certified Used Vehicles.

One of only 399 being produced, a Ron Fellows ALMS GT1 Championship Corvette Z06 is expected to reach Al Yousuf Motors showroom in the United Arab Emirates in June.

Having written about the Ron Fellows Edition Corvette previously at Corvette Blog several times, the news is that one of these fabulous Z06's is now bound for the Middle East. 

Although the Dubai City Guide claimed that Dubai City is now the only city outside of North America to get its hands on the very limited signature series Ron Fellows Corvette Z06, the original announcement from GM was that a total of sixty-six were to be exported (not counting Canada).  Perhaps the distinction is that, while not exclusive, they are first.

We recently blogged about the arrival of our beautiful new Ron Fellows Edition 2007 Corvette Z06.

The stunning creation of the Bowling Green Assembly Plant drove out the doors of our dealership in just a few days from hitting the showroom floor!  And what a happy customer!

Stay tuned for the arrival of our first fabulous Indy 500 Commemorative Edition Corvette Convertible.

Our parent dealership has just taken delivery of our Arctic White Ron Fellows Corvette Z06. And what a beautiful car this autographed #190 is (out of 399 total being built)!

It arrived in the place of honor behind the cab on the car carrier, safest there from bugs and flying debris. The vehicle had the typical clear stretchwrap on it, and it came with a trunk full of decals, the front splitter, the wheel hubs, etc.

Careful attention was given to prepare it for showroom display behind the stanchions, not too far away from our gorgeous Black and Victory Red Z06’s.

Of course, every Ron Fellows Z06 comes with metric gauging, so some feel that kilometers per hour and miles per liter are there to honor the Canadian roots of racing driver Ron Fellows. I haven’t checked, but the navigational radio probably calls out all the Tim Hortons restaurants across North America, eh?

Once a year, most of the Corvettes in Michigan's largest automobile showroom are removed to attached indoor storage to make room for a school auction!

The "before" photograph  was taken a few years ago, before the C6 Corvette introduction.  The "after" shot shows some of the current Vettes moved to one side of the showroom to make room for tables and baskets.

The South Redford School District has benefited by tens of thousands of dollars over the years as parents, students, educators, and friends pour into the monstrous showroom of George Matick Chevrolet of Redford to bid on selected auction baskets and offers from local businesses, and to enjoy a great party.

The dealership prides itself in effective community activities like this.  Do unto others as you would have them do for you.

This year's event is Friday, March 23, and, as you can see, the dealership is ready for the crowds.  If you're in the area, feel free to join us for the fun!

According to a memo recently received by new Chevrolet Corvette dealers, Monterey Red Metallic Tintcoat (80U) is being discontinued.

The final date for order submission in this color is April 7, 2007.  If that's the color you want, you do not have much time to order.

The memo indicates that a replacement color will be made available at the beginning of 2008 Model Year production.
