I'm getting a quote of about $22000 on a brand new 2007 Sport 6M (no options). Thats not a bad deal, but I'm seeing others on here get better deals...closer to $21K and some even less. Now this is their first offer and this is via online. In all of the 15 cars I've owned, I've never dealt via online so I assume the game is the same and there is still some bargaining room.

I'm going tomorrow to see it and hope to bargain a bit more. Do the old standard rules of new car bargaining still apply? I don't want to jump in the game not knowing the ropes. Think I can get them lower?

I told myself I'd never buy another NEW car, but here I am.

 

I got my 07 with 8k miles for 21k *23 out the door*. I really didn't have any room to bargain, as they were already hounding me about how little credit I had, and nobody really wanted to finance me. Then again, I got 4 bank statements saying I was denied the finance, lol...I guess they weren't kidding.

 

tell them to try 21K, cuz remember, 2008 CAME ON THE LOT FOR LONG *** TIME. and 07 .... it has been there for at least a year +

u should tell them straight up, you really want to buy, but you're not going to pay more than 21K for a car that has been on the lot for 1+ year.

and this is just a *sports* model. So 21K sounds about right for a car that has been on the lot for so long.

Thats why u should always check your credit b4 u go, better yet, try to get some financing deals before u go, at least you can use those as a *bargain* weapon. Like tell them *look, they're doing 6%, if u're higher, no reason to do it with you, right?*

To OP : Im telling u, they will do everything to try to get business, especially with the bad economy these days. Life is going to be hard for car dealerships.

 

shoot low, its the same game. once they give uthe best deal, go to other dealerships and see if they wanna beat it.
