SpaceMonkey 03-25-2009, 04:30 PM Nino, can I come down out to test drive one of them? What time do you close?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-25-2009, 04:52 PM They aren't PDI'ed yet. I will let you know when they are ready
VQ35DE 03-25-2009, 05:32 PM What would it be with a GMS pin ?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-25-2009, 05:37 PM For a GM Employee 33,255.00 + TTL or 36,255.00 + TTL and 0%
G8BLBYU 03-25-2009, 06:04 PM Damn. And these fools where I bought my G8 GT from back in September still have their $7500 markup over MSRP on the car. :judge:

Yes, and unlike Nino's, they're likely going to sit collecting dust for a long time too.
Nino, your sig is perfect on money vs. sales. You still should make something, and do on most, but the whole point of car sales is to sell them...which you and Gay thankfully understand. Fancy, the concept:rolleyes:
Time to hurry up and get a G8, people. Not that deals will all of a sudden disappear, but why wait any longer, seriously.
Nino@gaypontiac 03-25-2009, 07:38 PM I already have hints on whats happening...Its definitely not getting any better. I promise you that.
VQ35DE 03-25-2009, 07:44 PM So Nino, how close to 100% sure are you that the ($2000) Dealer cash is OVER on the 1st ? What about the Old Inventory $1000 dealer cash ? Will it end on the 1st also?
SpaceMonkey 03-25-2009, 07:52 PM Are there changes for the 2010 model? HUD would be cool.
beach 03-25-2009, 07:53 PM Are there changes for the 2010 model? HUD would be cool.
That has not been released yet, but will be over the next couple of months.
SpaceMonkey 03-25-2009, 07:55 PM ^ Thanks. I'm trying to decide if I should wait until later this year or not. Nino's deals are pretty darn good and I would hate to miss out on it if it's not going to get any better.
Nino@gaypontiac 03-25-2009, 07:58 PM Im hearing disturbing news that the GXP might get cut. :mad:
Im hoping thats wrong but who knows anymore. :(
Nino, any idea of when you might get some 6 speed GXP's? A buddy of mine is curious about 'em. Lives down there in H-town. :)
Mika
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 11:03 AM The white one is now spoken for.
I have not seen a manual pop up yet, but I know I have a handful more coming.
josh_4184 03-26-2009, 11:11 AM Im hearing disturbing news that the GXP might get cut. :mad:
Im hoping thats wrong but who knows anymore. :(
I hope that is not true, why would they spend the money developing the car, then cut it after 1 year production?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 11:27 AM Thats what Im saying. I would be furious.
SpaceMonkey 03-26-2009, 11:58 AM How can the white one be spoken for? You said it wasn't ready?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 12:04 PM Someone wants it irregardless of it being ready.
Once someone says they will take it I make it theres so that they don't need to be concerned with anyone driving their car prior to pickup.
bracketracer 03-26-2009, 06:33 PM Im hearing disturbing news that the GXP might get cut. :mad:
Im hoping thats wrong but who knows anymore. :(
Nino, this news really concerns me. I just wrapped up a divorce and have a house to sell before I can get my GXP. I was originally planning to wait until next spring (I just couldn't leave such a fun car hiding in a garage thru a Wisconsin winter and not want to drive it!) to buy it as a 2010 model. I wouldn't ask you to reveal a source, but does this sound more like "idle speculation" or is it "hey, get 'em while you can or miss out"? Are you guys still able to get as many as you can sell, or is the supply getting hard to come by? I can't check inventory of GXPs on gminventory.com, so I have no idea how many GXPs are even out there. I know there are only 3 G8 GTs left equipped the way I would have wanted one if the GXP hadn't come along. I wonder if this is just a lull before the next boatloads, or if that's all the '09s we will ever see? I really need some good news these days, so this GXP rumor is putting a major damper on things for me.
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 07:48 PM The GXP's are not going to show on GM Inventory. The district managers are going on a first come first serve basis to dealers selling alot of G8's any time they hit the ground.
The other G8's are plentiful and I can get as many as I want.
The words come more as speculation but I take it with a grain of salt because this model is strong in AU and extremely strong in China as a Buick Model, so I cant see killing something that does so well, I would believe that they shift production to hear in the US and perhaps thats where assumptions are coming in. It would be alot more feasible to buld them here along side the Camaro rather than shipping.
VQ35DE 03-26-2009, 07:56 PM Nino,
What about the Old Inventory $1000 dealer cash ? Does it apply to any of your stock?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 08:12 PM Nino,
What about the Old Inventory $1000 dealer cash ? Does it apply to any of your stock?
I don't have any old ones here, but I have gotten a few for customers with it. Most of the dealers that have it still aren't competative enough to beat me. ;)
Weren' you supposed to come by?????
VQ35DE 03-26-2009, 08:17 PM So when you dealer trade for one that has it, it goes with the car to the new dealer? Correct?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 08:46 PM Yes
VQ35DE 03-26-2009, 08:50 PM Can it be stacked with the $2000 dealer cash for tagging dealers that tagged their quota?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-26-2009, 09:06 PM Absolutely
VQ35DE 03-26-2009, 09:25 PM Thanks Nino .
Way2Slow 03-27-2009, 08:13 PM Is the silver one still available? Please let me know, thanks
KemahGXP 03-27-2009, 11:33 PM Nope...I signed the paperwork on the silver one today...now if the hauler would just bring it on in! Can't wait to pick it up. Come to papa baby, come to papa...
Big thanks to Nino - he's been putting up with my indecision and pestering for a while now. He let me drive his own GXP today, which pushed me over the edge. By the way, it looked like they sold two GT's while I was there this afternoon - guess GM does make a car people want to buy, no matter what the politicians think.
Now I just have to keep the wife from finding out I bought a "commuter car" thats only rated 20 mpg highway:D
KD
Nino@gaypontiac 03-28-2009, 09:41 AM Thanks for the business man. I appreciate you choosing us over everyone else especially considering you had GMS pricing.
This makes all my incoming GXP's sold for now, but many more to come.
On the MPG, I wouldn't worry to much, you saw mine was averaging over 18 mixed driving on the DIC. ;)
BestG8 03-28-2009, 07:28 PM Getting pumped about the White Hot. Hope it rolls in on Monday.
mchspd 03-29-2009, 12:36 AM Hey Nino...I am getting about 16 mpg, any chance of this settling down as the engine breaks in? I only have 450 miles so far...
Nino@gaypontiac 03-30-2009, 10:48 AM 16 seems low to me. Im still averaging 18.4 and I've been having alot of fun since I passed 500 miles :p
During break in with gentle driving I was averaging 19.5. I basically shifted 1-3-5-6.
mchspd 03-30-2009, 11:48 AM Is there any thing to do about it?
josh_4184 03-30-2009, 12:05 PM Is there any thing to do about it?
Buy a prius, J/k

Any update on this Nino?
Nino@gaypontiac 03-30-2009, 03:47 PM No, I spoke with the rep and was told the lind is set to start on 2010's, so thats a little better.
As for mileage, are you running 93? 89? 87?
I think the car needs a tune frankly. Seems to run rich IMHO. Not that I have any evidence of it (I will soon however) but thats my thoughts.
KemahGXP 03-30-2009, 07:00 PM Hey Nino,
Any word on the hauler? Do we need to put out an APB on the driver? :wink2:
-KD
mchspd 03-30-2009, 08:19 PM I am running 93. Is there a place in town to get a tune? Any way to make this vehicle like a 90 ZR1 with a switch on the dash? haha.
Any reason to wait for a branded tune like from Superchips? Not familar with all that stuff.
BestG8 03-30-2009, 08:44 PM Hey Nino,

Mchspd, check out PSI motorsports. A buddy of mine has had work done there, and as meticulous as he is(extremely anal), he's impressed with PSI.

Nino@gaypontiac 03-30-2009, 11:07 PM The hauler is really making me unhappy. I have no word at all as to whats going on.
I got yelled at today for screaming at the guy from the transport on the phone in the showroom LOL
mchspd 03-30-2009, 11:11 PM Thanks Mika...will check them out

Thanks for trying...
$$$'s to donuts the driver is shacked up with a girlfriend somewhere...
Years ago we shipped a trailer of liquid hazardous waste to a processor. Despite explicit directions not to stop anywhere, no side trips, the driver missed the scheduled delivery a couple of hours later and was awol. Middle of the night we got a call from the local cops - the trailer was rolled over in a front yard a few miles from our plant. The driver had pulled into the neighborhood to hook up with a "girlfriend", then rolled the trailer trying to back out in the middle of the night.

Hope this one did not get rolled over or there might be a few upset G8 owners... Nino, any update on the incentives or lack there of?
VQ35DE 04-01-2009, 05:35 AM Nino, what's the update on the $2000 (tagging) dealer cash and the $1000 (old age inventory) dealer cash incentives for April ?
josh_4184 04-01-2009, 07:06 AM Nino, what's the update on the $2000 (tagging) dealer cash and the $1000 (old age inventory) dealer cash incentives for April ?
From the looks of the GM.com, it appears that they have extended the 0% financing for 60, or $3,000 cash back. Not sure about other incentives such as the $2000 dealer cash or the age inventory, Nino can chime in on that one. It also looks like they have started their "Total Confidence Promotion" as well.
Nino@gaypontiac 04-01-2009, 09:25 AM You 2 GXP's have landed Guys!. Ill have them ready after lunch.
Also, yes it was exactly what I expected. The dealer cash is GONE. We now have 3000 or 0%-60/ 2.9%-72 :(
Glad I got mine early. Sorry to the rest. Hopefully they give us some form of dealer cash again later.

For some strange reason I have a feeling that better incentives will not be to far off again.:) Especially if GM is going to into Chapter 11, they will need to move vehicles somehow even with Obams's promise to cover warranty's if the company should completely fold. I do see Chapter 11 in the future, but not 7, however that still will shake consumers confidence in buying a car form a manufacturer going through all that restructuring.
KemahGXP 04-01-2009, 10:35 PM Well, Nino was right. The truck arrived today, and my silver GXP is sitting in the driveway! Think I might just have to play hookie Thursday afternoon and put some mile on her.
Thanks for the easy deal Nino!

BestG8 04-01-2009, 10:57 PM Just picked up the white hot from Nino. Thank you sir.
BTW - I got 23.2MPG on my way home....I love this car!!

Wow, you got 23MPG in a GXP, I am begining to be more tempted to wait until early next year and pick up a used one. Where is the 13-19 BS coming from then????
Nino@gaypontiac 04-02-2009, 09:52 AM :)
Glad to have seen you guys. It was like a mini GXP owner meet, all 3 of us together at the same time. LOL
BestG8 04-02-2009, 10:18 PM Wow, you got 23MPG in a GXP, I am begining to be more tempted to wait until early next year and pick up a used one. Where is the 13-19 BS coming from then????
This is all HWY driving for 40miles, plus a few stoplights when entering the city - and keeping it below 3K RPM....lol...that is a task on its own.
Nino@gaypontiac 04-03-2009, 12:05 PM Yeah, its hard to get that break in done LOL
KemahGXP 04-03-2009, 09:05 PM I'm not getting anywhere near 23 mpg, but then the ~100 miles I've put on have been ~70% stop and go - not true city.
My average is around 17.5 mpg, mostly less than 3k rpm, but with a few good "load variations" thrown in. Wouldn't want to stay at any one rpm too long during break in now, would I...:wink2: This car is going to be a ball to drive once the break in is done.
Punisher 04-15-2009, 01:41 AM Hey do yall have any manual gxp's there? I'm looking for a MSM, with all black int, sunroof and manual trans.:driving:
Nino@gaypontiac 04-15-2009, 11:07 AM Not currently. But Im waiting for some other ones to hit the inventory screen soon.
Hey Nino: Do you expect these to come and if so, when?
