GM confirms employee discounts in incentive plan  
Jamie LaReau

DETROIT – General Motors says it will offer employee discounts to everyone starting Wednesday, Aug. 20. The sale will apply to all of GM’s eight brands.  
“We are going to have an employee-discount-for-everyone program,” GM spokesman John McDonald confirmed today. “We are going to issue a press release tomorrow morning with the details.”  
In a memo to Buick-Pontiac-GMC dealers, GM said the sale would run Aug. 20 through Sept. 2. For the B-P-G channel, the employee pricing would apply to all 2008 models and the 2009 Pontiac Vibe. Customers could get up to $6,000 cash plus the employee discount.  
The memo says 91 percent of B-P-G inventory is eligible for the sale.  
All 2008 Chevrolet models also would be eligible for the discount, a dealer said. The discount would apply to 90 percent of Chevrolet inventory.  
GM says the sale will apply to all eight brands. Today the automaker was briefing U.S. dealers on incentives ahead of an announcement of the new sales program,

on the high end stuff you are correct but it’s not a fixed percentage, it actually varies quite alot. More expensive the MSRP, higher the percentage.

i had absolutely no interest in this at all, until i checked some of the pricing:

2009 Cobalt SS Turbocharged  
MSRP: $22435.00  
Employee: $14544.15

Wow, that makes that car extremely desirable now in my book.

i don’t even see 09 ss models available anywhere, that’s probably why they printed it.

decent deal on an 09 vibe gt with similar discount, it’s msrp is around 20, discount is like 14.5.

can these deals be combined with any other offers, like a financing offer?
