Cost vs reason.... Posted by Mike Lynch [Email] (#81) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Mike Lynch) on Thu, 10 Feb 2005 16:26:06 In Reply to: 2004 9-3 Linear, Steven Engel, Wed, 9 Feb 2005 03:51:47 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I've seen the pattern many times. A dealer has a left over 2004 that they actually own for more dough than a new 2005 'cause Saab is pretty miserly with closeout incentives compared to current programs. So the 2004 just sits until someone likes it and doesn't ask what a 2005 costs.
If you go at it from a reasonable stand point, gee a 2005 is worth X so a 2004 has to be worth Y which is an appropriate amount less, you often find the dealer unresponsive. They'll just wait until they find an "*ss for that seat" as the saying goes, there's one for every seat eventually.
Better to just let it sit than to take a serious loss for what logically is a reasonable figure.
