Are the Friends and Supplier prices identical?
 
I have an offer for an additional $500 off for suppliers. Is this discount being offered to friends as well?

I thought the Friends code was supposed to take the hassle out of the negotiation process.
 
My suggestion would be to NOT do any negotiations in person. Tell them you are not setting foot in the door until you have agreed upon the price in writing. After agreement, then you go in and make the deal. [Also, if you were not using a Friends code, but instead just negotiating on price, you could easily shop their best deal to competing dealers to lower the price (see how far into their holdback they will go to make the deal) - e.g. DonkeyPunch method]

I have a friends code, but I feel like they've been trying to take me since I started this whole process.
 
What are they doing to make you feel this way? The Friends discount price is listed right on the invoice. Look for the "PP" (Preferred Pricing) code on the sheet. You can ask to see the invoice if you have a Friends discount with you.
 
Any current rebates or other price incentives are subtracted from that price for even greater savings. Other than TTL (in some states) the only thing they can add to the price is up to $75 for a documentation fee. If they start talking about dealer prep fees, marketing fees or other things run out the door to another dealer. Dealer add-ons, such as tinted glass or stripes, are additional costs also.
 
If you have a trade-in, THAT'S where you have to be careful. A dealer isn't making near as much profit off someone with a Friend's discount and sometimes they will try to make that up on your trade.

April incentives by eriley99

I have a question about April 08 incentives. Edmunds shows the $1500 or financing deal as well as a $1000 conquest or loyalty bonus (we have a 99 Quest) but the Chrysler site only shows the $1500/;financing promo. I used my zip code on both sites. Does anyone know if the add'l $1000 is legit? We get a supplier discount so that helps, too. Although we'll have to go out and get the tires replaced w/ Goodyears.
 
After a toyota, a VW and 2 nissans, this will be my first domestic purchase. I learned to drive on a Vega so understandably I'm a bit leery, but man, I LOVED the interior of the T&C. It had me at the clock- that cute analog clock!

First let me say that rebates and incentives are really difficult to find. I would suggest that you call the Chrysler Rebate Center at this number: 1-800-227-0757. They will ask your state or zip code since the rebates and incentives are different in the various regions. When I got my T&C in March there was an Auto Show Bonus Cash of $500. The show was in Cleveland even though I am 200 miles from there it was counted in the Great Lakes Region. After you have all the rebates then hang up and call back and get a second opinion. I had two different answers on the $750 conquest cash.
 
Also ask your salesman to show you the sheet with the current rebates and incentives. The new one came out April 1. Do not rely on the various websites for reliable rebate information. Even Edmunds does not list all of them. Some sites I visited even said that there were no current Chrysler T&C rebates. In March there was a $1500 rebate and $500 bonus cash. I believe that the bonus cash now is only $250. I got $1000 owner loyalty because I had been leasing a T&C. Good luck.

Friends Discount Code Request by jwmiii
Apr 04, 2008 (7:07 pm)

Am in the market to buy either a 2008 Chrysler T&C Touring or a Dodge Grand Caravan SXT? I've been reading these threads and people discussing getting a Friends discount code.
 
If anyone is in the "giving" spirit...how would I go about obtaining a Friend's discount code. You can email me at my Carspace email jwmiiicarspace.com.
 
Thank you to anyone who responds...I'd like to buy tomorrow, 4/5/2008, if anyone is quick.

Employer Discounts by avonmeg

I went to buy a magnum - or considering a pacifica or another town and country if not a magnum - as they are really hard to find in AWD up here -
Anyway - Our employee site indicates that we get 1% below invoice - at certain dealerships - all we have to do is show our badge and maybe a recent pay stub - so I had myself all excited - well when I went to buy - they said I can't get that discount without a code - as I'm reading here I see what they are referring to. Well I called my employer HR - who is where they said gives them out - they don't - they said just show your badge -
So - now I'm all pumped - we had found a magnum that I loved - but I can't afford it without that discount - Anyone else run across this before ?
I'm so sad that I won't be able to get my dreamy magnum - unless I can solve this mystery -
Thanks in advance all -
