I just got back from the dealer and I finalized my deal on a black V. Car should be here early next week.

Here are the details of my personal deal:

- Dealer showed me Invoice, MSRP, GMS (which is not available) and Supplier.
- Dealer gave me the Supplier price
- Dealer gave me the $2000 cash back regional incentive which is available on the 2009 CTS-V. Go to the Cadillac website and see if you are in a qualifying state/county.

- Dealer allowed me to us the GM Reward Points off the GM credit card. On The 2009 CTS-V you can redeem up to $1000 worth of points toward the purchase of the vehicle.

- Finally I haggled to get an additional $1000 off on the vehicle.

So overall I think I did fine and I will happily take delivery on the vehicle early next week.

TIPS for you:

- Make sure you check the Regional Incentives for your area. The $2000 Cash Back on the 2009 CTS-V IS AVAILABLE in certain areas.

- If you or someone you know has a GM Card with the reward points the points can be used toward the purchase of your new V. If the GM Card is not yours, you either must live at the address of the cardholder or be an authorized user of the card to use the reward points.

My experience at the dealer was not bad at all and I hope this information will help you guys. Happy Ving….
