Note that the sticker will show the destination charge and list all options at the same figures Edmunds told you were MSRP prices. Next, go to Fitzmall.com and find a car that matches up to the one you want. You'll find the MSRP prices match up with what you've have already found in your Edmunds and carlot research. Look at Fitzmall "delivered internet" price which is the price they will sell you the car before tax, title, and licensing. They only add a small documentary fee of $55(PA.) or $99(MD), but they will waive that fee if you live out of state and you will handle your own T.T.L.. So now you have a car that for example has a MSRP price of $32,233, Invoice Price of $28,869 and Delivered Internet Price of $28,969( see stock#T524807, a Black XLE V6 listed today).Caution: sometimes the invoice price recited by Fitz won't match up with Edmunds, but they broke it down for me and I found they were factoring in Dealer Holdback amounts. Bottom line is you will have a for example $30,000 MSRP car that you can buy from them for about $27,200. You won't get a better quote from any dealer to begin with. I then found I would have to pay $99 to fly out to Baltimore and drive car back( the $99 doc. fee would be waived and Fitz would give me 30 day temp. tgs) or they would put me in touch with some auto transport companies who would haul it to me for about $600-700. I then took my Fitz price and shopped it with big dealers assuming they would argue I would have to pay extra to actually get the Fitz car here and that I should be willing to pay several hundred dollars more locally. Surprise! A couple of local dealers immediately said they would work with me and as I pitted them against each other and Fitz I finally got one that exactly matched the Fitz price including doc. fees. So I got my desired car at desired price and without extra airfare or freight fees.

I have recieved a couple dealer quotes for a basically fully loaded v6 w/nav and wondering if this sounds decent. It would have VSC, heated seats, smart key and floor mats in addition to the NAV. One is for 28,632 + ttl and the other 28,900. I put money down at both dealers over 2 months ago ( although neither has actually debited my visa ). I just got word from one that they have one in their next allotment but they don't have the details (color, dates, etc). How do these deals sound in general? Being the car is so hard to come by I'm not sure that I can do much better and it's impossible to try some of the tactics suggested here as virtually no dealer has the car on it's lot. It's still pretty much an order and wait proposition. Also, does anyone with nav know if there is any kind of monthly fee for the service?? Thanks !! |
