i'm buying a brand new Z enthusiast (mt). dealer's giving me a MSRP of 28800. that's w/ floor mat. Is this a good deal? If not, how much lower do u think i can get it down to??

thanks!

 

The dealer cannot give you a MSRP. The MSPR is fixed.

What is the MSPR?

 

lol sorry. msrp is 30850. he's giving me 28800. do u think i can go lower than that?

 

You can definately get lower than that...a lot of people out here are getting their enthusiast for abou $29k - $29.5k OTD including ttl...i got this quote in so cal...so that should give you an idea on taxes...check to see invoice and deal from there...good luck!

 

Offer $27,765. Stick with the offer and don't budget a nickel.

 

Did you offer $27,765? What happened?

 

he said he can't sell it at that price. lowest he'll give me is 28,700 with side airbags. he said the invoice would be 28,102, so he's only making $600. is he bsing me??

 

No, he's still making factory holdback and floorplan fees (~$600-750). I used http://www.carbuyingtips.com/ to come up with a better offer and paid less than invoice for my 06.

 

You can always do better. A couple grand below MSRP ain't bad though.

Question is how much more time do you want to put into getting another few hundred off?

 

Just use a broker like costcoauto.com

I got mine for $500 over invoice. I thought it was an excellent deal, and the best part is they got the exact car I wanted with no haggle and no hassle, delivered to a dealership within 2 miles of where I lived.

Some people may be able to haggle to get below invoice, and power to them. I prefer to get the car for a fair price (not the BEST price), in the long run I don't care about $500.

he said he said. I don't believe any numbers that a dealer gives me. I don't like the price. If its OK with you, go for it. Me? I would be patient.

 

Is this a different car? Did the MSRP change?

 

no, same car: 06 enthusiast. MSRP is 30575 (w/ destination charge and side airbags) invoice is 28102 (he claims) and he is offering me 28700. so basically i'm getting it for 600 above invoice.

 

Is it a bad deal? No
Could you get it cheaper? Yes
I see you're in Illinois also, which dealer is it?
Let me know.

 

ask for 28k flat and say a guy from cali where taxes are high got it for. not otd but invoice.

 

This dealer is tough. Offer $27,823.

 

How do you like the new ride?

 

GL!

 

I just bought a new Enthusiast, with $270 in options, for $27,700, including destination charge.

My experience in the last month told me that the price of cars depends on the area. For ex. Bailey Bill said he paid $27,700 for an enthusiast plus options. Over in Miami all the dealers wouldn't drop past 26,7xx on a Base. and thats without the Destination charge! I tried for a month and went up and down South Florida and all the dealers were the same. I think it has to do with the demand in the city + the cost of living
