Thousands and thousands in lease support, lease rates around 1-2% OR 1.9/2.9/3.9 financing OR dealer incentives that could make you forget about the low rate financing.
I understand how you feel though. The almost $7k incentive and the $339 lease were some pretty fabulous deals.
And why Saab lowers incentives, or eliminates them as on '02 Linears, thereby raising prices to the consumer is tough to understand. I sold many an '02 this year to people who were attracted to our "Red Tag" specials on our '01's cause the '02 was cheaper. Fortunately Linears are pretty much sold out in So Cal and won't be much of an issue. I suppose ending incentives is supposed to light a fire under the dealer to clear last years models out, I can see that logic, but it comes with a heavy penalty in customer displeasure when you tell someone who's been waiting for prices to come down that in fact they went up.
