Exactly what I thought. I went to one those "no haggle" stealers yesterday to order a new 2009. They claim they sell at $500 over invoice, yet when they printed the sales sheet for me to sign it says FWP, not invoice price and is about $400 higher than the invoice price as listed on Edmunds. Of course they said FWP was their invoice price from the manufacturer. Can anyone lead me to source that explains the difference or offer advise on how I should go about disputing their claim?

What claim are you trying to dispute?
 
If you don't like the price than don't buy the car.

Sort of a baby sh*t creme?
 
Yeah that's a good way to put it. I think we said something similar.

Transportation cost?
 
If that is not it then print up the invoice from Edmunds and ask them to compare. If they refuse just tell them to shove it and then go somewhere where you can haggle!!

To add destination charge (freight) to what the invoice is.
 
I wish they wouldn't seperate this!

Gray interiors generally remind me of used chewing gum.

I agree! That would be a step to simplify things wouldn't it? What a novel idea, simplify things? Purchase price plus state fees for tax tag & title.
 
But no, dealers here tack on all sorts of fees and bogus discounts after starting with an inflated price. You should have seen the figures on the sheet Universal Nissan started me with. It made the 4 square sheet simple. Orlando is more and more a snake pit.

Maybe they have a advertising fee built into their invoice from the manufacture that doesn't show up on Edmunds.

1. Is $400.00 worth your time. To each his own, but it wouldn't be for me.
 
2. I've been in the car business now for a little while and I've never seen a lighter color interior be cooler than a darker one. I sell BMW's in Texas where the humidity is very high. All interiors get hot, color is irrelevant. It's not an opinion I promise.
[More of a statement I realize.]
 
3.Congratulations to BMW Sauber for their first win in F1 since the 80's. [Again with the statement thing.]
