you guys that pay almost sticker I laugh at. 65k out the door is a good deal for me if the dealer wants it gone. I,m not paying any more than I have too. worked in auto sales for 6yrs they can come down a whole lot more than you think. this money off invoice is a selling point for them. not the price they really paid for the auto.so go laugh all you want been there paid less.
Haha, you're so full of chit!
Almost $86k sticker, you say they'll come down 20 grand + TTL and whatever else, so more than $25k off sticker price? (You said out the door, not me)
I'm shopping for a new truck. You find me a 30% off MSRP Bighorn megacab 3500, either trans (cause that's what I want), any color but p*ssy pink for 30% off, I'll buy it tomorrow and give you $1000 for your time. Heck, make it $2k and I'm serious.
Nice!!
I too was in the car business for almost 10 years and he is F.O.S.
There might be some additional money to the dealer that isn't advertised in the form of volume discounts, but often that money is used to discount the vehicle.
What a lot of people outside of the business don't understand is that the profits are smallest on new car sales. The real money that comes in to the dealership is in the used car department and parts/service. There probably aren't many dealerships that would be able to stay open if they relied strictly on the money they made off new car sales.
If you're trying to buy an "ad unit" vehicle, it's already discounted pretty deeply and there just ain't a lot more wiggle room in the price.
