    How Much I Paid for My Bolt

    My residual was $24598.35.

    Was yours a LT or Premier? Can't compare total lease cost unless both were equipped the same way, and same trim. Not to mention the variability of your trade in value.

    Gotta side with Michael on this one. There is a high degree of certainty that the dealer stands to make more on your trade in than on the sale of the Bolt. I get not wanting to sell a used car on your own, so you chose to trade it in, which is ALWAYS going to yield less than a private sale...

    This one was on their website at $4160 off as well. I think the combination of Orange and no fast charger made it less desirable to many, but it was exactly what we wanted.

    Yes, it was a lease. My paperwork shows that the agreed upon price was $38,995, with a capital cost reduction of $6500. I put $3000 down, which leaves $3500. I believe this $3500 consists of $2500 (my portion of the $7500 tax credit), and an additional $1000 rebate. Edmunds shows a bonus...

    I bought the one Bolt Premier at Harbor Chevrolet for over $4000 off MSRP. What is interesting is that when I showed up, they gave me another $1000 off in a new rebate I didn't even know about. My car doesn't have the fast charger, which I know is a must for many potential buyers. I just know...

    How Much I Paid for My Bolt

    Here is my deal on a Bolt Premier. The only options were Orange color, driver assistance, and Bose audio package. Didn't want the fast charger. Never thought about using it on our old Leaf, and any roadtrips we take, which are rare to begin with, we'll take one of the gassers. MSRP: $43155...

    2017 Chevrolet Bolt Deals......

    While I have never actually done business with this company, keep in mind that they charge a fee of $595. So long as the price they get you is $595 less than what you can negotiate on your own, I guess it's a good deal. Moreover, they probably make the "process" a little easier since they...

    Which options are worth having others not worth it.

    She drove a Nissan Leaf for about 39 months, right at 12,000 miles per year. Even if we did have a fast charger, I still wouldn't want to deal with the hassle of finding one and waiting to charge when I have 2 hybrids at the ready. And frankly, we just don't take a whole lot of road trips to...

    Which options are worth having others not worth it.

    We were waiting for a LT with the Comfort/Convenience and Fast Charger. Took my wife to see one of the in-stock units, and she hated the cloth seats, said they reminded her of burlap or canvas. Also didn't like the two tone color scheme. We decided to pass on the LT, and have ordered a...

    The seats are a deal killer.

    Not sure what the difference is, but I sat in a LT with cloth seats. And yes, compared to my fat body, you should be just fine!

    The seats are a deal killer.

    I finally got a chance to sit in a Bolt last night, and I was more than curious about this seat issue. Keep in mind that I'm 6' 5" and 280, so I'm definitely in the upper 1% as far as size. I can definitely see what people are complaining about, but I was able to readjust myself into a...
