My current deal by curtiskline

I have a deal in work with a dealer here in Oklahoma. We've agreed to a price for a specific car, and I have paid him $500 down to find it. He hasn't found it yet, and I am thinking about going elsewhere, since he said he would have it in two days and we're going on four days. But I wanted to run the deal by the forum here, and see if it sounds OK:
 
Altima Coupe 2.5S
Convenience Package
Moonroof
5-piece mat set
Dark Slate
MSRP (per Edmunds): 25,295
Invoice: 23,579
TMV: 21,791 after 1500 rebate
 
I offered 21,791 and he said OK. He tacked on a $200 doc fee, but nothing else. So I should get the car for 21,991 if I can get through F&I without being a sucker.
 
Should I stick it out and wait for them to find the car? Or head to another local dealer who I found out has this car in-stock? I doubt the first dealership is going to give me back my $500 without a fight, so I would have to get a really good deal to make it worth walking.
 
Thanks,
Curtis

Is $18500 OTD a realistic price for a 2.5S around NYC area?
 
Thanks.

I just purchased a "used" 2009 Altima 2.5S with 6,000 miles on it. It was put in use back in September 2008 (I ran a CarFax on it before buying.)
 
All the standard features, plus spoiler and aftermarket rims. $15,000, $16,500 out the door.

2.5S with no options by rvaidyan

I had a commitment from 3 dealerships in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis-St. Paul) area for a 2.5S at $17.5K as long as I closed today (June 30).
 
Since I live in Duluth and had a trade-in (2003 Honda Civic LX coupe with low miles), I did not relish the 2.5-hour drive to the twin cities and then negotiating the trade value, I went to my local dealership and agreed to $17.5K - $6K for the trade.
 
Final sales invoice said $17,998 - $6,499 = $11,499+TTL.
 
I saw a $75 "documentation fee" pre-printed on the invoice that got me upset. Finally, after a lot of arguing, he agreed to add another $50 to the trade. Final, after TTL and trade was $12,562 OTD.
 
I may have been able to do better playing the TC dealerships off, but it would have taken the rest of the day. Thanks to this forum for helping me set a good target price.

Doesn't it still make sense to buy new as you get the sales tax refunded (next years tax bill) on the purchase of a new car?

Can I ask what dealer you got this from? Pm me if you don't want to say on the forum.
 
Thanks

The sales tax isn't refunded. It's deductible against your income on your federal tax return. For most people, that's 25% of the tax amount.
