My best commission deals I source in the middle of no where. Always smart to call obscure dealers. Just make sure you still have a fax machine to send paperwork! I kid. But they are super slow, being a yankee I can feel the tension sometimes when it takes them 6 hours to collect a deposit.

I agree with this. A few of the best deals I have ever had on a car/truck were from a small, low-volume and middle of nowhere dealer.

Jim just willed $7k out of my wallet with pure jedi mind tricks. That guy was right. He’s a scammer and a thief

The real scam is this “CTR” is just a Civic EX with cardboard spoilers taped on with duct tape.
The dealer gets 5k of it. I wouldn’t charge a 7k fee. That’s excessive on this. The 2 I had I did 1 and 2k fee. Which seems fair based on mmr.
That tundra guy said his tundra was 75k with my fee. Msrp was 71500. So it was 73500 on a 80k+ mmr, white prob would be closer to 83, was a very good deal but he likes to embellish the numbers to make it seem worse. On his denali first he said 5k discount, later in the thread he said 9. 
Sorry just venting as I always try and sell to leasehackrs at way less then market value. Annoyed when someone spits in my face like that.

Jim it should be against your religion to have a broker fee above $250

But did you see all that Bed, Bath & Beyond swag he was able to fit in the back of that Denaili with all the hard plastic surfaces inside to rub on as well?
The deal on that rig ($5k, $9k, $30k…) might someday offset the $5+ per gallon you pay on a daily.

The situation is being addressed. Best to just move on and continue services to LH. I think every broker on LH has a wild customer story. Live and let learn.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a LH broker that can get one at or near MSRP if I am willing to wait? Or is this simply impossible for the Type R?
I just sold mine after 800 miles . I got paid 12k more than I paid for it. Paid 46 k sold for 57.500 $

How did you get one at MSRP? Solid relationship with dealer?

Most dealers have long wait lists, and many of those lists, the cars are marked up
