I lost the link, but it seems like I found a document by doing a Yahoo search that explains the program.
The dealer gets 2% of the invoice price refunded after a GMID sale. Since GMID price (supplier price) is approx 2% over invoice, that seems to indicate they get 4% on a GMID sale. Of course, that doesn't count holdback, finance rebates, and whatever else they get from GM. The price is fixed (and printed on invoice sheet), so no negotiation.
One dealer told me they were making a net profit of $4000-4500 on every H3 sale. With GMID it would have only been about $1500, and they weren't going to do it.
My 2 cents, if you have a dealer with a unit in stock that'll take GMID, go for it. You'll end up doing a lot better than some of us.
Good luck!
