So you think. Market adjustment houser be paid but do you think discounts should be giving?

People need to stop listening to KZbin channels “teaching” how to negotiate. My price is MSRP, it’s online, it’s a fair price. If you like it then buy it, stop playing games. Transparent car dealerships and transparent car salespeople are here and now. Stop the games. If a car has a markup, then negotiate the markup or walk away and wait until the markup is gone. I have sold 20 cars at msrp in the last five weeks to people who waited for prices to come down, some of them I have been in contact with for over a year.

[@marv8481]

Exactly, and there isn’t a shortage. I personally have a couple of friends in a couple of different dealerships, the dealerships are just ordering less, a lot less, and typically ordering the higher packaged cars instead of the base models or lesser equipped vehicles. And when someone tries to buy a lesser equipped car that would need to be ordered they try to talk them into buying a premium packaged car that’s on the lot that’s been marked up thousands over msrp. But, at least in my area, the dealerships started ordering much less new cars as they are making more money selling the used cars for nearly double their actual value while still only giving the person who traded it in less then KBB trade in value, typically 10-20% less. And they’re ordering the lesser equipped cars so they can talk them into the more “sought after” better equipped cars, which is one of the only few new cars they have on the lot, and because of market adjustments, and skewed sales research, those higher equipped cars are in more demand, because that’s nearly the only ones these dealers are ordering, and when they do order that 1 or 2 base or LE vehicles they are not on the lot for more then a day typically. One of my good friends works at a Chevy dealership near me, they still currently have over 50 Silverado ZR2s, over 50. They’re only ordering 2-4 of the lesser equipped Silverados every month. And in their advert they tell you to come on down because they got the hard to find, rare, highly sought after, ZR2s in stock, so hurry in. And most other local Chevy dealerships have over 8 ZR2s in stock too. This whole automotive fiasco is absolutely ridiculous and the general public needs to do exactly what you said and start putting their foot down and so no! I don’t care if it’s even 1k over msrp, NO! And everyone needs to do that. And people need to stop paying equal or greater amounts for used vehicles compared to their equally equipped NEW counterparts. I’ve seen used vehicles for sale for over 10k what you can walk inside the new section of a dealership and order the exact same package, trim level and equipment for, the only difference is you’d have to wait 2 weeks for delivery for the new vehicle. Take the blinders off folks!

The best tip is, go to your own bank and ask for a pre approved loan. This way you do not have to deal with the dealership and you can bargain for the exact price you want to pay. In the end you will pay far less for the car. If you bank gives you 3% interest the dealer is going to make it 6% or more. This is how they make their money and you do not need to get a loan from them.

By the time I sell my 250k+ mile car, it's not worth dealing with the flakes in that market segment. If you are trading something under 100k miles, maybe, if folks can get that sort of cash together.
