Newsflash: General Motors Drops Sticker Prices
Written By: MyRide.com Reprinted under license.
 Prices cut by up to $2,500 on a variety of models When merchandise doesn't move, there's usually one sure-fire way to drum up some much needed business - have a clearance sale. Department stores do it. Tire stores do it. It's an approach especially popular at this time of year, evidenced by the number of "After Christmas Clearance!" signs plastered on store fronts everywhere. General Motors' new pricing program, announced on the final day of the 2006 North American International Auto show, bears resemblance to such a sale, but may be more appropriately titled the "After Employee Pricing Clearance." As many had suggested, GM's deep discount program of 2005 not only moved the metal, but also seemed to draw sales forward, and in effect, proved to be a setup for slow sales after employee pricing went away.
The new pricing strategy will start on January 11th, and unlike its predecessors, this program lacks any clever marketing taglines. This one's just about lowering prices as much as $2,500 on most of the General Motors lineup, though Saab, Hummer, and Saturn (except the Relay) are excluded. That leaves models like the Chevrolet Impala LS, down $1,000, the Buick LaCrosse CX, down about $1,100, the Cadillac SRX V6, down about $3,000, and the GMC Sierra Regular Cab 1500, down about $2,500. There's also the 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS Coupe, which is now priced at $12,990, or $1,500 less than before. That sub-$13,000 price may be just enough to get Honda Civic DX and Toyota Corolla CE shoppers to consider something other than their $15,000 favorites. Probably not, so it's a good thing rebates and incentives have been left on the table.
Lower sticker prices won't be limited to the least popular and underpowered models. General Motors Vice President of North American Sales, Mark LaNeve, claims that the hammer will drop on 80 percent of the company's sales volume, meaning the cars GM sells the most of will be less expensive as of January 11th, but don't expect the Corvette Z06 to suddenly be a $50,000 car. However, at under $70,000 that ride is already a screamin' value, a term that GM hopes will soon be commonly applied to the rest of its vast lineup.
