Chewy, I purchase a GMS vehicle each year so here is how you do it.
First, the dealer cannot mess with a GMS price. They are audited albeit infrequent, so you can be confident you are getting an accurate price. Second, 89 vette is correct in saying any other factory incentives are in addition to your GMS price, however, beware some dealers won't tell you this so you need to be proactive about it. Third, equally important is your financing rate. They could try to sting you there so check around, make sure your dealer is rated platinum because they get better rates from GM and are able to pass them along. This could be up to 1% savings from dealer to dealer. Most often I go with GMAC finance. You are probably eligible for incentives with the finance as well but you can check at gmfamilyfirst.com to be sure. Don't let them stick you for the extras ie. side steps, roof rack, chrome wheels etc, on-star sucks so don't pay for any extra services. On-star does, however, reduce your insurance rate because the vehicle can be tracked if stolen. Be sure to advise your insurance agent of this.
Most of this is my experience in buying many GMS vehicles with a couple of opinions.
Good Luck and try to enjoy the process.
