: Anyone know of any EP+ 06's left?

I've found two 06s for sale thus far. One dealer claims that the owner is driving it and wont sell it for EP+. Isn't this against DCX's rules? Another place said that as the vehicle has some 300 miles on it, it's considered used and thus EP+ does not apply.

I have cash in hand to buy an EP+ 06 this week but I'm not having any luck. I don't want to wait for an 07 and the price difference is signifigant enough that even if they were available today I would probably choose the Trailblazer SS instead.

Black if possible.

Your help is very much appreciated.

If you are willing to travel in order to procure, here are 3 ( 2 reds and a black)

TBSS would be a mistake (too many reasons to list).

Yeah, I do, but where are you located? Are you in Canada?

Thank you for the link Black SRT8. I will contact the seller with the Black one and try and feel him out price wise. I do get the feeling that his reserve is going to be closer to 47k than it will be to EP+ (about 40 even) though. I do not particularly want to go down the TBSS road either but if I can't find an 06 @ EP+ I probably will.

I am located in Reno, Nevada. I would rather buy in Nevada or California if possible but I am willing to travel (or even buy sight unseen and have the vehicle shipped :eek: ) if that's what is necessary.

Red unfortunately is out of the question for me (different strokes) and I would much rather have black but I am also aware that this may not be in the cards.

Wow! Thanks a lot! I'll start working through these right away.

Probably a stupid question, but can I buy a nav unit for an 05+ GC and install it without issue in an SRT8?

If it is a 5 Start dealer they have to offer employee pricing. Hope that helps...

Of course this one isn't actually black - they put those pictures up "accidentally" - and it is "99% sold".

Sigh.

That may very well come in handy. Thanks.

I know of a dealer in the Philidelphia area selling three red srt-8 for $1000 below EP. But, you don't want red :(

:( thanks anyways

like i said, different strokes for different folks. i figure for a vehicle at this price point i might as well get what i truly want.

Negotiate a $500 to $1000 over invoice on a 07.....there are dealers that will...and you will have an 07 with additional upgrades instead of a depreciated 1 year old SRT.

Hell, do what makes you happy.

Just bought mine last night with EP. It had 280 miles on it since they had to drive it from another dealership to get it to me in time. Good luck.

Interesting. Does anyone know at which point a vehicle is considered used? It seems like a way dealerships have been weaseling out of giving EP+. Once its been titled?

Are you aware of any specifically? I absolutely hate the negotiation process at dealers.

Still looking for a Black 06 at EP+ if anyone is aware of any.

There is a bright silver SRT8 in Louisville, KY that has the EPP.

Anyone know where I could find out definitively whether or not this is the case? I found exactly what I want at a 5 star dealer relatively close by but was told that it isn't being sold @ EP+. When I pushed I was told "Im not sure why not, I just asked and thats what I was told".

:mad:

^^^ My SRT8 GC arrived on the first day of EP. My 5-star dealership informed me of the price decrease - I had no idea. I had the feeling they were forced to tell me. Why would they sacrifice a $5k margin?

AFAIK DCX reimburses dealers for the EP+ so I'm not entirely sure why they wouldn't want to sell @ EP+ unless the reimbursement is less than MSRP.

I would emphasize that point to the dealers.

Central Valley Jeep in Modesto CA has a red GC SRT8 with EP (If you ask for EP) It is fully loaded.
