First of all, I would like to thank LH for the amazing insights and great information coming from this community!
A week and half ago I decided to target a 2024 LYRIQ (Lux1/Sport1 loaner) deal before the end of the year and started emailing dealers at a 150 mile radius from me (around 15-20 dealerships). In my first email I just asked if the had any loaners available for lease, most of the dealers didn’t have any loaners and if they did they were a higher trim than the ones I was looking for. If the dealer had a loaner I would reply with the deal that I wanted to target (My deal was based on the info in LH). Most dealers replied back with a “LOL” or “We’re not just giving cars away for free”, but a few dealers replied with a decent counter deal. The dealer I ended-up leasing from simply asked me “What’s the number we need to beat to get your business”, so I gave them the number of the best offer I got and they were able to beat it by $500.

In return of the dealer discount the dealer needed to mark-up the MF.
