with sunroof paid about $500 over dealer "cost" or about $28,700. Out the door with title, taxes (8% ouch!) and transfer fees $31,500 on the nose. Paid cash.

The company I work for does business with certain car manfacturers and we (the employees) get discounts on the cars that the manfacturers sell.

Mistu, GM, Ford, Dodge/ Jeep/ Chrysler, Infinity/ Nissan are the ones we get discounts from.

I can get a base EVO (if ordered) for $25k. If it's on the lot it's $26k plus tax tag and title. It's a fleet program (sales type 52).

My point is, yes you can get a new EVO for $25k

Why don't I have one yet you may ask, I have to sell my car first to meet the downpayment.

That is coming from a friend who sells cars/trucks for a living. 2nd, whether it's cash or financing, they are still selling a car, but I disagree that the dealerships would rather get the vehicle financed. The dealership doesn't see a penny of the interest, the bank or lending institution gets all that.

I had a guy offer $48,000 cash for mine, but I laughed at him and never called him back. I wouldn't sell my car right now, I am just getting used to it...
From my career experience we do get money from the interest and we do mark up the interest as well. You may have been approved for 5.9 but we would try selling it at 8.9 as for not selling your car for 48k you have just lost the deal of a lifetime i would have sold it...bought a new one and dumped the 18k+ that you would have had extra right into the engine. how does 500 horses sound? easily done with 18K

It was the end of the month, they had 6 on the lot, and it was the only way I could get financed with my limited down payment and my over extended credit. The owner of the dealership approved the deal after the GM shut me down. The owner just wanted to boost the number of units sold, so I lucked out. I think I ended up paying around 27.something k brand new, color of my choice.
Dealerships never actually lose money theres kickbacks everwhere that we can't disclose

Pay in cash doesn't mean anything...
I would rather show up with a peoplefirst.com check... shows
them you're financing and you qualify for financing..

When I bought my evo for few hundred more than invoice..
the finance manager took 30 mins calling bunch of banks in order
to beat my peoplefirst rate...

I was able to get 2,000 off MSRP.

Dealerships don't care if it's cash. They would rather finance you and make some money on the back end of the interest. They have to account for each car so it's of no benefit to take cash and make it an under the table deal.

Whats confusing about this thread is that "most" people keep saying + or - of MSRP.....but you aren't saying what the MSRP was to start off with and more importantly, what the car had? Roof? no Roof? Wing? No wing etc.

Without the latter informaiton... wouldn't it skew the perpective of savings?

Or am I a complete NEWBIE (which I am) and don't understand the basics of MSRP?

:P

MSRP is what Mits states what the car costs.... anything above that what a lot of dealers were trying to ask for is markup.....
