I just purchased and picked up a new H3, Yellow with black leather, sunroof, Lux Package, Off Road Package. Purchased from a local dealer in Louisville, KY. I was the first one they sold an H3 to that used the GMID. I talked them into it over a 2-3 week period.
MSRP 37,639.00
GMID 34,348.89
Savings of $3,290.11 whoo hoooooo

They told me no on 06/27, other than that they were great, nice people, especially the salesman, Paul Taylor. I felt bad for him, so sent him a thank you with $50 in it. I ordered my H3 the next day, on 06/28 with Lynch Hummer.

Thanks, I live & work in NYC and have a home in Prospect(Louisville) which is where I'm going to keep the H3. Flying from NYC to St. Louis, driving 300 miles to Prospect and play for a few days, then fly back to New York.

Hello Everyone,
I just purchased a Boulder Grey H3 with my GMID...Like Gary, I was the first one the dealer I went to accepted here in the Boston area. I checked around with every dealership within 100 miles of here. Saved $3300 on the sale so it was definitely worth doing the "homework".

Congratulations on your new H3! I'm researching and considering purchase. I too would hope to use a GMID. I'm located in NY -- Marc, you mentioned you had difficulty and then success. Would you mind sharing which dealers gave you problems and who ultimately "hooked you up".
Thanks to all.
Chris

Okay, here's my deal using GMID at LYNCH HUMMER (picking up my new ride on Thurs, 08/18).....H3 Boulder Grey/Ebony Leather/Lux Series/Auto Tran/Sunroof/Chrome Appear/Chrome Wheels/Chrome Tubular Steps/XM Satellite Radio/Roof Marker Lights
MSRP...$38,280.00
GMID... - 3,428.26
TOTAL..$34,851.74
Besides the great price, I have had the pleasure of dealing with the professional and accomodating staff of Lynch (who actually return your calls and follow through with requests...who knew???). I have read about a lot of bad experiences with dealerships, you WON'T find that @ Lynch, definitely worth the trip. I couldn't be happier!  |

Well, being a Cowboy fan, I could probably plan a nice trip to see my team and pick up a Hummer. That being said, it's just too far from NY. It would be a nice ride though. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Try the four dealers in the Detroit area; Detroit Hummer, Novi Hummer, Suburban Hummer, Friendly Hummer, most have quite a large inventory of H3s. They are also willing to accept GMID, GM Supplier and GM employee plans, since this area is filled with GM employees.
Another area that might work is Buffalo since GM has a large facility in Tonawanda.

Three of the yellow hummers at Suburban Hummer, Troy, MI had the H3 embroidered in the headrests, and the salesman stated they came from the factory that way. Now, maybe Suburban had it done, and the salesman doesn't know his *** from a hole in the ground.

Was this a "long distance" purchase or do you live in Missouri.
Congratulations and good luck!

Gary, did your H3 have H3 embroidered into the front headrests?
Each yellow one I see around here have the H3 embroidered and yellow gauges. Dealer says they come in that way.

You did your homework and even though it took you two to three weeks to get the dealer to take your GMID Certificate it was well worth it!
In NY some dealers where not taking GMS for actual GM employees. I was fortunate enough to find a dealer in WNY area that allowed me to use mine.
That is why a site like ours is so great, you can find out where the best deals are being made! </span> |

<span class="ev_code_blue">Syracuse wasn't accepting GMS,  Rochester wasn't sure if they would. 
Buffalo Hummer was willing to take a few GMS certificates. 
THANK YOU BUFFALO HUMMER! </span>  |
