20% Off 2018 Sonic Deals. . . Post Here !

[shorebreeze]

Very early in the model year to see 20% off. This may very well be the last year to buy a new Sonic, at least as we know it....

Yeah, what does Chevy have in mind for this segment? It seems to me with ditching the Cruze and the Volt it opens the way for a slightly bigger Sonic to replace both the Cruze and the current Sonic with a single model offered in both gas, hybrid and plugin-hybrid forms, let's say sort of VW Golf/Jetta size.

I'd just as soon keep it close to what it is, but no question there's a big gap between the Sonic and the Malibu, and a smallish gap between the Sonic and the Spark.

I’m thinking of looking in to trading my 18 A6 Premier Hatch on a 19 Premier Hatch with M6 sunroof and the performance pack/lowering kit/performance exhaust in the new Shock highlighter yellow color. I think that would make a really cool and unique Sonic in what will probably be it’s last run. I will probably wait till another 20% deal comes around somtime in spring tho...

I have the same car as you with the performance package, you can get great lowering springs and a zzp exhaust for equivalent and both won’t void your warranty.

Well I really did it today... After thinking long and hard I decided to take advantage of the awesome 20% off deals out there this month and I pulled the trigger on this brand new 2019 Premier RS Hatch with A6 sunroof and drivers confidence package. I traded my 2018 Ivy Green Premier with just 4K miles on a 2019 in the new Shock Yellow.... A fun car needs a fun color! Santa was definetly good to me this year, LOL...and WOW what a head turner!!!!

For anyone looking to buy before January 2nd while 20% off MSRP is still going on, there are some great deals out there on new 2019 Sonic’s. I’m seeing deals advertised online on autotrader and cars.com at over $6K off of MSRP. I know this is possible because I just traded my 18 for full NADA trade in value plus received over 6K off the new 2019 after negotiation. It’s very early in the model year to see these kind of discounts. Great time to pull the trigger while these cars are still in production....

Well. . tell us what "area" these $6K Off deals are and what dealer you bought from if you really want to help others. This is the second time you claim you got an amazing deal and yet to hear what area of the country and what dealer .. Please.
Otherwise . . ..

 

[Chazzz]

There are several dealers on autotrader KBB.com and cars.com advertising new 2019 Sonic Premier’s for over 6K off MSRP. I did my homework and took these deals to my local dealer and was able to negotiate a similar discount. If you are a serious buyer and do your research and homework in advance, with a little effort a 6K plus discount is possible....

I don’t know how real this is, but here’s a 2019 LT hatch advertise for +$8500 off...yowza!!

It looks like this one has a discount for a GM employees plan and a GM card rebate tied in to that price that you would have to qualify for. You have to be careful and read the full description on pricing as a lot of dealers will try to bait with low ball pricing. There are a few legitimate deals out there but you have to read the fine print. If you find a deal that sounds good, f you are seriously interested follow up with a call to the dealer to verify pricing ....

LOL .. so then .. . just like "last time" you are just going to beg off with that weak no answer . . . reply.

Seriously, what's the big deal that you can't even give a general area or even the dealer so that others can compare these $6,000 discount deals.?

I have searched and see no $6,000 off deals let alone $10,000 Off like you claimed last time. . nada. Post some links if you would please. ..
If you did the searches, it shouldn't be all that difficult to show wome of the links you found.

 

[Chazzz]

Rest assured I wouldn’t have traded my 18 after less than 4 months and just over 4K miles if I wasn’t into it very well up front. Believe what you wish.... https://www.landerschev.com/VehicleSearchResults?search=new&make=Chevrolet&model=Sonic I’ll post more when I get a chance to relocate them....

 

[JTee2017]

Well, thank you very much. No deals near that good within 400 miles of 53154 zip that I could find using Autotrader or cars.com. I've seen some $4,700 to 4,800 off and most all are sedans. So now, that wasn't so hard now, right?
Others can now have something to show their own local dealers to negotiate and will appreciate your real help.
Myself . . I wish I could find a dealer that had more than 1 or 2 Sonics in stock. There just don't seem to be around here. And no Cajun Red hatches which I just can not part with unless I found a super deal on another. I just first turned over 5,300 miles.

 

[Chazzz]

I agree, with your low miles and the mods you have done I would just keep your car unless you can find a deal you can’t refuse. Who knows what deals will be out there later in the model year, especially if the Sonic goes on the chopping block...

Well .. just trying to elicit some factual info so others who might be car shopping can have some basis to make an offer or find a car at at a good competitive price. As my old boss would always say . . "It's difficult to know when you have "good" information."

Even then, some of these car prices posted on dealer websites include some discounts that aren't applicable to all buyers. They are click bait to get you to email, call or stop in at the dealer.
Also, many areas simply do not have much inventory. Especially for hatchbacks. I would have to drive +350 miles to find a dealer with more than 1 or 2 cars in stock. Other areas have dealers with 6 to 10 or more in stock and most within 400 miles form me are only $4,700 to $4,800 of MSRP. Not enough to make me bite. And.. . . few to none Cajun Red which really is the color I wanted and was difficult to find even last year in September of 2017.

January 2nd is the final day to take advantage of the great 20% off deals on new Sonic’s. Awesome way to kick off the new year and there are some sweet deals out there. This dealer has several at well over 5K off before negotiating.... https://www.connellchevrolet.com/inventory?type=new&keyword=Sonic. And here’s a few more.... https://www.garylangchevrolet.com/n...cted=inventory-listing1-facet-anchor-model-17

19% off all new 2019 Sonic’s in March if you have a competitive brand vehicle in your household. Looks like 2019 will be the final run so a good time to get one while you still can....

I take it you’re thinking they won’t make a 2020 Sonic? There was that thing over at camaro6.com that hinted it might be around another year, at least. Since it isn’t “officially official “ (to my knowledge), I’m keeping a bit of hope...

http://www.sonicownersforum.com/for...oks-like-sonic-may-live-see-another-year.html

But hey 19% off is good...

While there is an all new Chevy Trax and Buick Encore ready to go for 2020, there are no such announced plans for the aging Sonic. Sadly, with such low demand and sales figures continuing to plummet, I have all but given up hope for an all new Sonic. It seems the only reason the car is still in production today is they had extra unused parts and Orion assembly which GM recently invested $100 million in for electric vehicle production is only operating at 34% capacity.

 

[dannyg]

Unlike Cruze and Impala and Volt, Chevy has not announced the cancellation of the Sonic. They could have just done it in one announcement and gotten the pain over with. Until it’s official I’ve got hope! They even un-cancelled the Impala (and Caddy CT6) at least for another year, seems like chaos over at GM management.

Great News...Just Announced 20% off all new 2019 Chevy Sonic models for the month of November during Chevy's Black Friday sale! Amazing time to trade up into a new Sonic as these 20% off deals seem to be getting fewer and farther between...
