Got another call from a local dealer today.

asking me if I wanted their black/black they are getting in a few weeks. I told him, I turned mine down at 25k over sticker and am not interested in buying unless it is sticker or less.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

Norm,
I bet you have one, on YOUR terms, before the end of the year.

Re: Got another call from a local dealer today.

I take it that a 45% drop in sales is making 'em rethink their business plan.
Tell 'em now it's MSRP minus 25K. (Payback is a b!tch)

With sales so bad overall, they will be anxious to book a profitable sale before the free floorplan runs out

Re: Got another call from a local dealer today.

If it is the same dealer who tried to screw you before tell 'em to suck your
If it is a different dealer tell them to call when the price is BELOW MSRP.

Re: Got another call from a local dealer today.

How much were they asking over MSRP? Hang in there and soon you'll get it at MSRP or lower.:cool::cool:

Re: Got another call from a local dealer today.

If I were you Norm, I would have my name at 100 dealerships and would be enjoying the phn calls. When the first dealer wakes up, make your move. Enjoy and buy it your way. You would have to figure they will depreciate alot the first couple of years w/ a very limited market. They aren't selling new! Good luck

Re: Got another call from a local dealer today.

I'd call back and say for invoice I am sure it is really not that unrealistic to get one below msrp. I would try to hold out a little longer if you can until that unbeatable deal is knocking on your door.

Re: Got another call from a local dealer today.

It was a different dealership that knew I was in the market. They said they wanted $40k over sticker. I guess they haven't been watching the market very well.

All good things come to those who wait. I sure hope this is true.
