They don't have to give you a dime off unless it is on the sticker. You'd be better off ordering an 07 exactly as you want it and then they have to give you the discount becasue all the options are on the sticker. Also, the more you spend, the better the discount. We were going to get one stickerd at about 36, but the discount was only around 3.5g's so went just went for one more loaded up on the sticker. We also looked at some stickered lower, but had tons of dealer add-ons, and the prices were silly cause the dealer charged retail for all the add-ons even to GMID customers. Some dealers might give you a discount on the add-ons, but they don't have to. If you can, shop around dealers with the GMID and see what the discount is on a similar priced H3. You might find some dealers do not really offer the "real" GMID discount. I haven't had this problem with GM yet, but it did happen to me with employee pricing on a Ford about 5 years ago. One dealer I went to I found was more than $1200 difference on a car that was only $200 difference in sticker price at a different dealer, no add-ons. The dealer I ended up buying the car from told me that some dealerships just print bogus invoices with bogus plan pricing and pawn it off like it is the factory invoice with the actual factory plan prices, or in my Ford deal, wouldn't show me paperwork, just the computer screen with the numbers and plan pricing, which are easily manipulated in a computer. Good luck!

Same here.. ..1st dealer fudged the GMID price.. 2nd dealer.. beat his price buy $600.00. 1st dealer printed out an Invoice from "GM Dealer World" ..Looked good ..but the options from the factory were probably jacked up . Search my threads for more info supplied by "F5stop"..

He explains excactly how it works.

Shop around..
