Well now it sounds like your getting somewhere.
What did you price out in the Alpha as far as options..?? I'm looking at Moon roof..Off Road pkg....NAV and leather..Towing Pkg.... Roof marker lamps...etc.

GOT IT!
i went to the dealer at 1 and told them what i wanted. they said they had one that almost fit, i wanted black with black interior, no side steps roof rails, no nav, no backup camera, i wanted lux/ offroad, and sunroof. So they had a black one with morrocco interior with chrome sidesteps, roof rails, nav, sunroof, body matched grill and backup cam. i told them to take those off and they had a deal. they gave them all to me for free!(nav, backup cam, chrome steps, and roof rails) so i got it for 40100 or 42 out the door, which is the area i wanted to be in. then i put some money down. im not a fan of the interior but i may be able to live with it. here are the pics. im pullng my old brushguard off and throwing it on this one tomorrow, along with my much better nav/stereo

Sweet.. So you still have your old H3..?? Or did you trade it with the cash down..?? It it sounds like your gonna be financing $10-To $20K with a trade.

[wannabeH3]

the paperclip you say? let me try that... anyways i guess i forgot to tel you how much they gave me on trade, they gave me 17k! more than i expected so i had to roll about 6k of my old loan into it hehe im going back to get the old one today to pull all my stuff off it.

My Dealer just called me after hunting for a week. He found what I wanted except it's Bolder Gray. Not My knid of color. He told me their are only two Alpha's in the Northeast area out ther with NAV and OFF road and moon roof,and the rest of the options I wanted. Both are bolder gray. And on top of that I'll have to Kick in for roof Marker Lamps and side steps.

Anyway.. He told me that The Factory has been shut down since Nov. No more H3's are being produced. What's out in the USA is it. GM is in Talks with some one to sell the line. I heard it on the news today. They will announce where they are by the end of march if the deal goes thru.

So..for me to get into an Alpha it will cost me at Least $20K from my 2007.
Theirs only $2k Cash back on the H2. My dealer said that there not having a problem selling them or I would consdider moving up.

So I'm up in the air again. I don't want to put my sack on the line for $20K. $10 K I could do and not feel bad about.....but $20K makes my Chubby go down.

Congrats! Since they gave you the Nav for free and you're pulling it out, want to pass it on for 10X the money? (10 x 0 = 0)

Seriously, are you going to sell it? I'm planning to take the D2 out of mine to put in another car, wouldn't mind the factory Nav.

[wannabeH3]

yeah im planning on selling it, im waiting for a new part to get my old nav installed. i guess the going rate is pretty good for those things on ebay. send me a figure you wanna pay and ill see what i can do.

[wannabeH3]
