Size:  5.6 KB to the site!!! I have the black ebony cloth and after almost 1 yr. still no problems. If you like leather then get leather. My last few vehicles had leather and I decided this time it was not necessary. As far as buy now or wait for incentives, do what you feel. You never know what GM/Chevy are going to do?!?

That sounds like a great price. Many of us who purchased our HHRs early go little or no discounts. Go for it!

Check out this link to see what you should be paying in your area. I find edmunds to be a great source of info when it comes to pricing cars. When I bought mine my dealer was $5 over what edmunds said it should be. It's comforting to know that I'm not getting ripped off.

Just plug in all your options you want, your zip code and look at the TMV price. I've never found it to be wrong.

Also keep in mind that you usually can't have your cake and eat it too. If you get low financing, you usually don't get the rebates, or at least not as good of a rebate. I opted to go with 60 month and $2500 rebate with higher interest than $1000 rebate and 0% for 36 months. I pay a little more at the end of it all, but I save alot every month with a much lower monthly payment. So I can set more money back while I'm paying it off. That worked out better for me.

Also, try out this if you want to figure out what your payments would be with different down payments and what not, click the "basic loan" tab. And to figure out the better of bigger rebates or lower APR click the "low apr vs cashback".

Those are all the tools I used. Hope it helps! And if you get one, you'll love it!

::edit, sorry I mucked up the links. All should be well now. :)
