But there's a somewhat lesser incentive on the Linear, so I don't imagine you'll see $6k off list, maybe $4k.

Of course there's lot's of ways to state a discount and what it does and doesn't include. In the case of the 9-3 Linear there's a somewhat larger incentive on the lease. Some dealers will advertise GM employee pricing as if it were availible to everyone and then pile on loyalty discounts that folks don't qualify for.

Normally advertised prices are as low as they get, in fact in many cases it can be very difficult for a consumer to buy an advertised car. The dealer wants to advertise the car to attract customers, not to sell that particular car. It's often difficult to achieve the same level of discount on a similar, but non-advertised car. A dealer will advertise an unpopular color, a non metallic color like laser red which by nature is $500 less as there is no metallic paint charge.

After spreading all this gloom and doom about advertised cars, some dealers are straight up about it and it can be a very useful tool even if you're not purchasing the ad car. Such is the case with Saab advertised leases.
