Mike, Judging from your MSRP, you are getting around 6,000 off MSRP. I wouldn't do it, here in Florida you should be easily able to negotiate 2,000-2,400 more than that. |
|
Err didn't see your sale price before but 8,000 off MSRP is doable here in Florida which would get you at 60,570 + ttl and it is not the end of the month yet. I would keep negotiating.

Replying to: mike001 (Mar 12, 2008 11:34 am) I posted the invoice for you! Did you not see it? You stated that the dealer offered you $500 over. It's pretty evident that the actual "factory" invoice and what he told you don't mesh. Use the 411 I gave you to your advantage. Here's the bottom half of the invoice... again. If he said $500 over, then you should have a selling price of $60,641, which would be ~ $8k off. VIN .............: JTHBL46F385071032 --------- --------- --------- Total Accessories ...........................: $ 5805.00 $ 4661.00 $ 5805.00 Destination Charge ..........................: $ 765.00 $ 765.00 TDA .........................................: $ 775.00 Dealer Holdback .............................: $ 1240.00 Whsl. Financial Reserve .....................: $ 620.00 --------- --------- Total ................................ Invoice: $ 60141.00 MSRP: $ 68570.00

Replying to: ocautoseeker (Mar 12, 2008 10:08 pm) I am being told this is such a good deal ..ect ..ect ...guys are nice ...the " dance " to get the realistic best price is a pain in the *ss ! My quoted price is $61,223.oo plus the 500.oo profit the dealer said he'd do the deal for ...so " net net " he says the sell price is $61,723.oo plus TTL... guess I'll call another dealer in the state to see what they'll do the same deal for ?

Replying to: mike001 (Mar 13, 2008 5:47 am) Tell him you know the exact invoice, then offer him the "realistic" $500 over. If he claims that the numbers are wrong, tell him you've consulted with a professional. |

this is how he did his version of the Math to get to dealer Invoice: MSRP : 68,570.oo (he says that MSRP represents a 12% mark up ) say to obtain dealer's net cost : you divide by 1.12 says his net dealer invoice / cost is : $61,223.oo add: his $500.oo profit and he gets to the $ 61,723.oo Thanks again for you education & clarification on the real #'s .

Replying to: mike001 (Mar 14, 2008 2:39 am) Now that you know the "REAL" invoice, make your offer based on that. Nothing wrong with being polite, but stay firm... it's your money. And btw... invoice is not cost. Invoice minus holdback and ad fees is not cost. Only the manufacturer and/or the GM and Owner of the dealership know the true "dead" cost of each individual vehicle.
