I’ve been reading on this forum and others. But this is the first time I’m going through this process. What exactly am I supposed to say?
I don’t want to come off as being rude or a jerk. But I’m pretty sure most of the dealerships I’ve contacted are giving me the car at full MSRP and just taking off incentives/rebates.
Do I just as for x amount off msrp? Mention that truecar says it should be x off msrp?
I’m confused as to what to say in a response to get the price lower? Should I try to tell them I want x monthly payment, with taxes and see if they will meet it?
See my post that @phat posted. I specifically ask for the cars selling price before incentives. Or you could ask what incentives are included in their price.
After that, I just ask for the price I want: Can you sell the car at $x before incentives?
I hope this helps. The worst that happens is that they say they can’t accept your offer.
I simply said to them, “can you do it for X” With X being MSRP minus dealer discount minus rebates/incentives.
They either will of wont. Something that makes a big difference are the add on fees. I received 2 quotes of $517 and $479 the only difference being dealer fees. I went with the $479 deal.
