2003 Seat Prices

[skrupski]

Just looked at kbb.com for the 03 prices. Things are pretty much the same except for the trl hitch now optional and a $900 increase for bucket seats, all three choices, cloth, sport leather, leather. Is this real or did someones info get screwed up? Seems a bit excessive when there are lots of '02s left, or they are trying to tell us something.

Did you consider that the buckets seats now come with the upgraded Bose system?

Hummmm I the heated leather seats (AN3) do not come with the Bose system. To get the Bose you have to have the bucket seats. I think that the $900 increase is from the addition of the rear audio controls, A/C vents ect. You also get the memory in the adjustable brake and accelerator peddels. And finally you get an 8 way power seat not the '02 six. Those are the only things that are different in the AN3 pakage from '02. But do all those things cost $900? Seems high to me....it all boils down to $2100 for heated leather seats...ouch

The Bose system does not come with the bench seats (AE7). ?You need the console for it. ?With the system, you also the Bose subwoofer and Bose amplifier.

With the buckets (A95 or AN3), you get the upgraded Bose system, rear audio controls and a/c vents. ?Also required for the DVD entertainment system.

Not really when you consider you're getting most of the new convenience package goodies. Now here is the million dollar question - if you get bucket seats with the overlapping conveinence package features AND you get the conveinence package do you get some sort of credit on the difference between the two?

Wait...so you are saying that if I order the $2100 option AN3 (full feature heated leather) then it comes with the Bose system? I thought you had to order the Bose system/ In-dash 6 disc (UC6) seperate on top of AN3.

I know what you mean. I think I am tripling my "steering wheel radio controls" with the various options I'm getting. Basically I am paying $1100 for side air bags and one year of On-Star with that "Personal Security Package".... Oh well its only money. I'm learning to like just bread and water for dinner....

I think you figured it out. The Bose system comes standard with the AN3/A95 seats.

So I guess there are no rear stereo options with bench seats? Good thing my kids have their own personal CD players with headphones!

Goo I know you work for Chevy but where did you see that the AN3 seats comes standard with the UC6 Bose system. All the info I have shows them to be two separate options... I pray you are right though, makes swallowing the $2100 price easier.

AN3 Seats, Heated Bucket
