GMS = employee
GMU = supplier

 

They don't have that in Canada that I'm aware of. I hear about it a lot when buying a car in the US but never in Canada.

 

I got the GMU, (Working for Intel made me a supplier). My fico is about the same as yours and I had th option of going with 0% 60 month or 1.9% 72 month.

 

bump for update from O.P. did u buy it's dood?

 

I could have taken supplier pricing and another $1250 in rebates and gotten 0%. But if I took 0% then I don't get the $4000 rebate.

If I pay the car off early, I get a better deal than 0% with the 4k. If I don't then the 4k will cost slightly more.

Yeah, I agreed to terms on Monday.

I should be taking delivery tomorrow night.

Silver Ice metallic, low rise spoiler, moonroof, usb radio, limited slip etc. More options than I wanted but that's fine. The limited slip will help in the winter according to the manual I read online.

 

You need to get all-seasons or snow tires first if you decide to drive in snow. The stock tires are summer ContiSportContact 2's.

 

I'm not deciding to drive in snow, I have no choice, lol.

And yeah, I've been reading all the problems with wheel fitment. I'm kind of hoping I can find a set of 17" SS/NA to put on.

 

don't feel forced into another set of rims for winter, i road my stock rims with 18inch low pro winter tires and did just fine. We got 30cm of snow overnight last week, i was able to drive thru it just fine.

and btw, no scratches on my rims at all

 

Congrats man!

 

I ran snow tires before and they just wear down too quickly especially if you're not driving on snow all the time. I'm looking for all-seasons.

 

trust me, for where the OP lives he will want snow tires for all of winter, we can get over 10inches of snow overnight up here and u wake up and now your all seasons are no seasons.

 

I know, I know search button.... but since it's been brought up what size snow tires/brand do you guys run in winter?

 

I used 17" BSA rim with 215/45/17 General Altimax Arctic Tire. I would use a 205 if possible though so its a little thinner. Cost out the ass though at almost $1800.

 

$1800 eh? Daayyum. I'm hoping to get some on sale in the fall or something... try to lessen the blow a little

 

How much snow are you looking at? The reason I ask is because good all-seasons will get you through about 6"-8" of unplowed snow. Anything more and dedicated snow tires MIGHT work assuming you get enough clearance. Just my 2 cents...

 

Well, I get a pretty solid amount of snow here typically (granted, not as much as the Albertans)... my end of town seems to always be the last to get plowed as well
My sister just put snow tires on her balt this winter and the difference was pretty awesome, so I'll likely go the same route.

 

Good man. With proper snow tires and the LSD these things are damn near unstoppable, even in atrocious conditions.

 

i got the same deal with $0 down and 5k upside down in a trade that was still in the body shop cus i ran it into a rod iron fence...guess its nice to have your mom as the salesperson.
