To be honest I really can't say as I haven't really looked at prices since I bought in '06. Just eyeballing some prices and uncertain of their accuracy, however, it looks like those prices are pretty serious. Doesn't mean you can't trim more under the right circumstances with the right dealer. For example, I could see the one at $28,934 easily going for up to $900 less but you might not get that through a specific dealer. You can try something lower and always work back up to the quote if necessary.
If both you and the dealer are pretty satisfied with the deal you can also look for other ways to sweeten the deal (perhaps as a counter if they won't budge on price). Do you need any accessory options (roof rack? winter tire package? (although I guess Saab is dropping that package when stock is depleted so maybe too late); or other items? Negotiate for them at dealer cost. Dealer really isn't loosing anything if they weren't already in the deal and what they really desperately want to do is move the cars. Sell it that way.
>>> 0ne said, he'd have to close his doors if he went lower.
I hate when they say dumb things like that. The only question is will they go lower. I'd probably have responded (assuming they still had a number of cars) if you don't start moving some of these cars I'd think you'll have to close your doors.
I have no complaints about the Vis Pkg but pretty indifferent as a buyer about it at $1000+. When I was shopping it wasn't on my spec list but I ended up with it b/c that was what was available on the car at the best price.
