That's not a bad price at all. You could probably do a little bit better, but if you don't feel like haggling anyomore, then jump on it and don't worry about it.

Not bad, about $500 over invoice. If you have the time and are willing to negotiate, you could probably shave another $2,000 off of that.

Out the door price in Midwest by whitney10

Final price offered by dealer was 47,350(including tax & title). This included Mark Levinson audio/navigation and premium plus package. I still think this price is too high based of other people's comments on the board. Any thoughts? I'm trying to buy this week!

It's hard to know since you included the tax and title in your price. I don't know what the tax rate and title fees are in your state. What is the MSRP on the vehicle? What is the dealer invoice price? Just stating that you have nav w/ML and preimium plus doesn't tell the whole story. There are other options that may or may not be included on your vehicle. That is why you must know botht the MSRP and dealer invoice to determine if your negotiated price (+ taxes and title) are a good deal.
 
If you can get the vehicle at 4-5% above dealer invoice (+ taxes & title), then you have made an excellent bargain.
 
Some people have posted getting deals below dealer invoice, but this is the exception to the rule. The dealer does have to make some money afterall.

Don't know what the invoice price is but the MSRP is roughly $51k. So that being the case, what should I expect to pay?

To be clear:
 
If your final out-of-the door price (with taxes and tags in the price) is the $47,350 price you listed, then that means you are paying perhaps a little less than $45K on a $51K MSRP. That is an excellent price!
 
If you must add taxes and tags on top of the $47,350, then that is not a good deal.

I'm assuming that 400h you are looking at is the AWD and not the FWD. If so then $47,350 including TTL is a very good price.
 
Bear in mind that different dealerships around the country will have different leeways on how much of a discount they'll give. Heck, even in MD there are dealerships within the state that have wide differences in price quotes! Just because a forum member in CA was lucky enough to get invoice doesn't mean your local dealship will be willing to do the same for you!

You should also know that there's a $850 dealer holdback on the 400h right now (or at least there was until this past weekend,) so even if the dealer sells it to you at invoice, they're still getting at least $850. So you should be able to negotiate a bit to get it closer to invoice. But other posts are correct when they say that prices vary by state and even by dealerships in the same city. While I was able to get $1500 under invoice from the dealer I ended up going with, another dealer in S. Cal told me there was no chance they were dipping below invoice. It also helps to go through the internet managers, since they're not paid on commission like the guys on the lot are, so they're more willing to lower the price to get the sale.
