Used TMV from $13,619
I purchased a Hummer h3 in the beginning of 2006. After, about 3 months of having the vehicle the check engine light came on. So I panicked wuickly went back to another dealer closer to my area. I was told it was fixed but, 2 days later light back on. So i brought it back to the dealer. After they kept the truck for 2 months-2 months. I was told it ... Read More
1. How has GM handled Oldsmobile owners. 2. Buying four year old vehicle and worried about six years from now. Not a unique question. A. Calling the Hummer H3 "...my car..." makes me think mall cruiser. We haven't rock crawled but appreciate a strong body on frame. B. $20,000 - maybe lease a new GM ( if you're a GM fan) SUV with awd or a ... C. Need/Want DD or ... Read More
I am thinking of buying a used 2006 or 2007 H3. It will probably have between 40,000 - 50,000 miles on it. To describe a complex situation in very broad brush strokes, GM has just announced that the sale to China of the Hummer brand has fallen through, so they're now going to close it down in an orderly manner. It very much depends on how many miles you'll put on ... Read More
I am thinking of buying a used 2006 or 2007 H3. It will probably have between 40,000 - 50,000 miles on it. I have two concerns; 1. GM says it will honor the warranties but can they legally retract that commitment at a later date? 2. Parts availability concerns me. If I get in an accident 6 years from now will I be able to get a quarter panel and whatever ... Read More
can anyone tell me how to remove the lower plastic grill (behind this is where the horn is bolted on) on a 2006 hummer h3 so as to change the disgusting horn they come with? thanks.
I do not recall specifically as I did not keep the receipt. However, I do remember that this was a frequent problem with the H3. To the best of my recollection it was the left front window railing molding. The noise only occurred under freeway conditions after I reached a certain speed. However, all you have to do is report the problem and the dealer will replace free of charge under ... Read More
can you recall WHICH LEFT FRONT MOLDING THEY REPLACED? i'd like to pinpoint it for them cause the local hummer dealer is located a distance from an interstate to get it up to speed to hear it? thanks much.
thanks for the reply and i'm positive that will remedy my problem. sure sounds like it. can you recall which front molding they replaced? i'm afraid they won't be able to properly test it cause the local hummer dealer is quite a distance from an interstate where they can hit the higher speeds. and it sure would help if i could pinpoint which molding was defective. thanks.
I have a 2006 H3 purchased in 2005. I had the same problem. I took it to the dealer right before my warranty expired. The molding is defective. The dealer replaced the left front molding and the problem was resolved. I also have a right front seat rattle which I never fixed. I should have also taken care of this problem while under warranty.
when running down expressway 75 to 85 mph (the different speeds at which it happens depends on the amount of headwind but usually at 83 mph) i get a loud constant rumbling wind (?) noise. its not a whistle or air leaking sound like you'd expect and pretty sure its not a tire howling but is left front near windshield or hood. was wondering if anyone else has experienced this sort ...

You bought or leased? This is the H3 leasing forum. If you leased, your buyout may not be really as bad as you think. If it is a 2008, how many lease payments do you have remaining? GMAC allows you to buyout the lease with just the depreciation portion of the lease payment multiplied by the number of payments left on your contract. Your payment IS EXTREMELY HIGH but that $610 ... Read More
I have a 2006 H3 with Adventure package and have just clocked 96K on it. Loved it until I cracked the casing two weeks ago and had to replace the transmission with a refurbed GM unit. Of course my warranty was only for 50K, so I footed the bill for that one. HOWEVER, just got my truck back last week and guess what, the same thing happened again tonight!! Same noise, ... Read More
I am having a hard time getting a dealership to tell me they can get me a 2006 H3x with no mileage (or very little). All the sales guys keep pushing is a 2007, but I am thinking I can get a greater rebate if I can find a 2006...is this foolhearty? Where are all the 2006s out there? I see that under current rebates and incentives a lot of manufacturers ... Read More
Hi Wojnocki... Well, I haven't pulled the trigger on the H3 yet....seems I am researching it to death! I have compared specs to the FX35 and they are even steven with maybe an inch give or take on space, legroom, etc. I actually went and drove the 2006's and then looked at the space in the back. You know how the FX has more of a "deep" space" in the way ... Read More
Unfortunately, joeycap, Hummer's lease rates are different than its special financing rates. Furthermore, General Motors is no longer providing lease support on 2006 models. If you want to lease a Hummer H3 through GMAC, you will have to go with a 2007 model. The 2007 H3's base lease rate is currently 3.45%, which is pretty good, but not nearly as good as the 0% finance rate that is available for 5 ... Read More
We bought from Hummer of Orlando this afternoon!!! These people are awesome, one of the best dealerships I have ever dealt with, they are family owned also. I received my GMID cert yesterday so we leased a 2006 H3 for 27 months. I think the lease specials for 2006 models ended today also. Here are my numbers: $36330 Msrp $33,271 supplier price $1709 cap cost reduction which included $595 acquisition fee ... Read More
Hi Dave. Most manufacturers advertise leases on base models to make their monthly payments look lower. This is the case with the lease that GM is advertising on the 2006 Hummer H3 right now. The MSRP of the vehicle that is being advertised is $29,500. As you were told, this is the MSRP for a stripped Hummer H3 with a manual transmission. I would be happy to give you my opinion ...

Tjones39, unfortunately the $2,000 customer cash that GM is currently providing on the 2006 Hummer H3 is not compatible with its special lease program. Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum
Hi tjones39. Yes, General Motors has special 24 and 27 month leases available on the 2007 and 2007 Hummer H3 right now. The 2006 Hummer H3's lease program is actually better than the 2007 H3's program right now. If you were to lease a 2006 Hummer H3 through GMAC right now for 24 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 3.45% and 69%, ... Read More
Welcome Matt. I'm glad that you find this site so informative. There's nothing wrong with trading in your current vehicle in when you lease a new one, however you should be much better off having the dealer that you are working with cut you a check for the equity that you have in your trade than using the proceeds from it as a down payment for your lease. I always advise ... Read More
I'm glad that you enjoy this site so much, knuckles9975. The fact that you can purchase your Hummer through GM's Employee Purchase program should enable you to get a good deal on it. Let's calculate a lease payment on the truck that you want and see what we come up with. You never mentioned what model year this truck is, so for now I will assume that you are talking about ...

Welcome, suv_shopper1. I am glad that you enjoy this site so much. Here is the information that you are looking for. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2006 Hummer H3 with 15,000 miles per year are 3.45% and 72%, respectively. Its lease rate would be the same for the other terms that you mentioned, but its residual values would be as follows, ... Read More
Greetings Kevin. If you were to lease a 2006 Hummer H3 through GMAC right now for 27 months with 12,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 3.45$ and 72%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease should be 3.45% and 63%, respectively. I would be happy to use these numbers to estimate what the lease payments would be for the truck that ...

I'm glad that you enjoy this forum so much, hooperaus. GMAC's lease program for the 2007 Hummer H3 is pretty good right now. I am not intimately familiar with what the market is like for the 2006 H3 right now, but I suspect that they can be had for fairly close to dealer invoice given the fact that the 2007 model is out. I would be happy to give you a ... Read More
Id like to purchase or lease a 2006 HUMMER H3 and I badly need a GMID certificate to afford this vehicle. Is there a kind soul out there who has an extra certificate Thank you very much...Barry(rvman)
If you are still looking for a GMID, you need to read through the posts and e-mail for one. You should get a positive reply. It worked for me -- but be ready to buy. Regarding the pricing, we bought the 06' with 0% 5 year and GMID. That's about the best deal you're going to get. Not only that, the 2006's get 1MPG better than the 07' and the pricing ... Read More
You're welcome and thank you abuaisha. I believe that Hummer's latest and greatest base lease rate for the 2006 H3 is 3.45%. As far as this truck's price goes, a base 2006 Hummer H3 only has a spread of around $2,300 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice price. You were quoted a discount of $5,500 on the truck that you are considering. This is an outstanding price for a lease ... Read More
Here you go, hartt. If you were to lease a 2006 Hummer H3 through GMAC right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 5.75% and 62%, respectively. The last couple of posts discuss this truck's 27 month program. I wouldn't say that this truck's 27 month lease is better, its lease rate is actually exactly the same as the 36 ... Read More

Thanks ksoles . If you were to lease a 2006 Hummer H3 through GMAC right now for 24 months with 12,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value would be 5.75% and 73%, respectively. The numbers for a 30 month lease of this truck should be 5.75% and 68%. The numbers for a 36 month lease of this truck should be 5.75% and 64%. I don't know how ... Read More
Hi again romankory. The price of 2006 Hummer H3 models should fall when the 2007 model is introduced as dealers try to unload their leftover inventory. Having said this, if you are purchasing through GM's Employee Purchase Program your price will not change. Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
Hey Carrie. Dealers often try to "mark up" vehicles lease rates and lease money factors. Just because this is a common practice does not mean that you should let this dealer do it on your deal. Consumers who know what the base lease rate or money factor for their vehicle is can almost always get the dealer that they are working with to agree to use it to calculate their lease ... Read More
When I was researching I got a lot of different answers as far as "how much" the GMID price was. Whether it was X amount off MSRP, X amount over invoice, X amount under invoice and etc. Then I came across a Link that would give MSRP and "Supplier Price." Supplier Price = GMID price. Just filled out the information on the first page for a 2006 Hummer H3. On the ... Read More

Hi dogsambam. A base 2006 Hummer H3 has a spread of a little over $2,300 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice prices. You are being given a discount of $3,170 on the truck that you are considering leasing. Unless you currently own one of the trucks that qualifies you for the $1,000 conquest incentive that Hummer is currently running on the H3, I suspect that this is fairly close to ... Read More
1. All H3's have the potential to experience this after they cross the 10-20K mile mark. True 2. GM has dealerships replacing the seals, valves, and cylinder heads. True 3. Appears to be a basic FLAW in the design (yes, same engine as the Canyon and Colorado but NOT the upper half of the engine - that is NEW for the H3). False. Exact same except for the air filter and ... Read More
Hi jorgedbernal. What a coincidence, you're the second straight person who is using GM's supplier purchase program to get a new Hummer H3. Given the fact that this model has been selling pretty well, I'd say that GM's supplier purchase price is a pretty good deal on the Hummer H3. You certainly can shop around a little bit and see if you can do a little better than this price if ... Read More
Hello Cgmmny. Given the fact that this model has been selling pretty well, I'd say that GM's supplier purchase price is a pretty good deal on the Hummer H3. You certainly can shop around a little bit and see if you can do a little better than this price if you want. As far as making a down payment to achieve a target monthly payment goes, I always advise consumers against ... Read More
No problem, jhl1963. If you were to lease a 2006 Hummer H3 through GMAC right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year (I don't recall ever seeing a GMAC lease of a Hummer with fewer miles than this), its base lease rate and residual value should be 5.75% and 64%, respectively. Most banks that lease vehicles charge acquisition fees. In most states, GMAC's base lease acquisition fee is currently ... Read More
Ahhh, I see that you do have another question, jhl1963 :P . I should have scrolled ahead. GM's January lease program is funny. It introduced a new one on the 4th, like it was scheduled to, but for some reason it only runs through the 10th. I suspect that it will be very similar after that date, but you never know. You never mentioned how long you want to lease your ... Read More

Hi gintini. Even though neither you nor any of your relatives have ever worked for General Motors, you still should be able to negotiate an attractive deal on the Hummer H3 that you want.

Hi Westongirl. General Motors is not currently providing any sort of customer cash incentives on the 2006 Hummer H3 right now, other than the certificate that you have.

You should ... Read More
Hi tbrown567. If you are able to lease a 2006 Hummer H3 at invoice you are getting a very good deal.

Fairly good gossip says 2007 should have about 20 more hp than 2006. Will still be much less than 300. Why do you want so much hp? I'm perfectly happy with mine as is.

Plenty of other car-based SUV's with more hp, and the ... Read More

I have called about 7 Dealerships within a 200 mile Radius of where I live in South Carolina, they don't even know what a GMID Certificate is.

They would stop me and tell me that the "Hummer is ... Read More
GMID is for 1% over Invoice....and will include 2006 H3's in the not too distant future (ie. in the 1-3 month range) Once demand dies down dealers WILL accept GMID certs. This info comes from a Hummer dealership..
The GM employee Discount program does not include the 2006 H3.
