Replying to: que2 (Sep 25, 2005 3:40 am) It seems that prices have dropped somewhat since the fall of 2004. Outside of California, a "good" deal amounts to approx 89% MSRP, which you received, and inside California, approx 87%. Too bad I can't compare lease deals. Did you have to negotiate any or compare dealers or quotes to get you 88.6%?

Replying to: ray12k (Sep 28, 2005 3:58 pm) California folks have been getting about 88-90.5% on 2005s. Each % MSRP represents $377 for your car. I might pay 1% MSRP more for a 2006 over a 2005 but that is about all. It is up to you how much extra you would want to pay for a 2006 over a 2005 if you have the choice. I think that 91.6% MSRP is too high. I'd see if I could dealer-hop to pay no more than 90%. And I think 89% is quite reasonable for a car from a So Cal dealer, at least for a 2005. Depending on how much I wanted the specific car, I might start at 87% with a willingness to work up to 90% max. Also, you might want to use dollar amounts, not % MSRP, when you talk to the dealers There are LOTS of dealers in So. Cal. There is a large dealer in San Bernardino and another large one in Riverside, and another large one in Cerritos..... Makes it very easy to walk out of one and into another to negotiate a better deal. |

Replying to: que2 (Sep 24, 2005 12:00 pm) I spoke to the dealership in NJ and he was offering the invoice price for a 2005. Had a colleague who purchased it from Doylestown PA and got it $200 over invoice after the Labor day sale that the dealer ship was having. I would think the 2005 should be available at below invoice price. ! I hope for that, I am going to start talking to dealerships again.
