Does anyone know if has been extended? How long? Any online documentation stating the extension so a dealer can't cheat anyone out of it?
Status of the Conquest rebate?
1 - 20 of 31 Posts
I don't know for certain. I ordered mine June 15th, and the dealer told me I would get the Conquest rebate even if it wasn't extended until the time I took delivery. I hope this is true...I got it in writing, so I've got that.
I've also got a "GM Family First" discount that they said I could use with the Conquest. However I've read other posts saying that some dealers won't allow this.
I'm just worried that they might sing me a different tune when it arrives. I won't have much bargaining power...I've waited so long, they know I'm not actually going to walk away from the deal. Plus they could be jerks on purpose because I guarantee they could sell my order the next day for more money.
Maybe I'm overly uneasey about this. I'm just hoping my dealer sticks to their word.
Sorry, that's a bit off topic and doesn't answer your question. Woops!

You cannot use Conquest rebate with GM Family First or Supplier discounts. If you are truly getting GM Family First (or what's normally referred to as GMS/GMO pricing) you are already getting the car below invoice. Dealer is not going to give you a rebate that you are not eligible for. They are routinely audited by GM to make sure they aren't giving rebates out without authorization (they also audit to make sure they give rebates when they are supposed to). Trust me, I know GM like the back of my hand. I have had several family members and friends (both living and deceased) who have worked for GM.grd398s said:
To answer NOLA Saints question, Conquest rebate is available until July 31 as of right now. You must take delivery on or before that date to actually get it (if you meet eligibility requirements). GM can always extend it and probably will be the fact they are offering a $500 conquest rebate on 2008 Acadia's which are just starting to be delivered.

That's not true anymore, I don't believe. I priced out my Enclave on the gmfamilyfirst webpage. The list price is $42,110. According to them the supplier pricing is $39,485. The invoice price published by sites such as Edmunds in $38,883, without any regional advertising fees. The one caveat is that I am not sure if the supplier price adds in the dealer advertising fees that we pay here in Minneapolis. If they do indeed build that ~2% add fee into the price, then the supplier price really is slightly less than invoice.monstersinc1 said:
I would have punched up the supplier pricing in a different zip code to check the ad fee issue, but I do not know where those fees are not charged.
Re: What is the Conquest Rebate?
The Conquest rebate is for $1000. It goes to current owners of foreign vehicles. You have to prove ownership, but do not have to sell/trade that vehicle. It is supposed to expire 9/04/07. It has been expanded in the past however. Don't know if it will again. I plan on using it. My Enclave was built this las week. If it doesn't look like it will make it to the lot on time, I will "buy" it before it gets there since the dealer already has the VIN number. Hope this helps. If you need more info, seach the forum for more links.

Re: What is the Conquest Rebate?
I got the GM Suppliers price on my Enclave. Saved over $1500. You need to be employed by a company that supplies to GM. This is a rather large group of companies. My salesman took care of all the details for me, all I needed was a pay stub from my employer. Here is a link for info:

Re: What is the Conquest Rebate?
We were told you can not combine GMS + Conquest. Bummer. Some dealers around Indanapolis are not taking GMS right now. My Dad got his this weekend in KY. They had 9 NINE of them. He cancelled his MAY 8 ORDER. Done DEAL!!!!!!!!!! He got the White Diamond and I have the Carbon Black. We are finally done with this quest that started back in April. :cheers: :blob:

One More Conquest Rebate Question
Our Enclave should be on it's way. :
I printed out the page from autodollars.com that mentions the Conquest Rebate..the date it ends is now 9/29 (or so they say).
But, I assumed as long as we were within the date that we would be eligible for the rebate.
The website mentions that your car needs to be a 1999 or newer. We are trading a 97 Camry!!! :banghead:
Now, it sounds like we won't be eligible!
Is this true????

Re: One More Conquest Rebate Question
True. The date things can be worked around sometimes, but the rule of 1999 or newer is set by GM and that's how it is. If you had ANY other non-Gm vehicle in the household that was '99 or newer--doesn't have to be traded in--that counts, but otherwise, you're out.
