There's a lot of factory money on the 12's right now and loyalty $$$ too. Find out how much of that $6000 is from the factory and I'd bet most of it is; then get the dealer to contributre thier fair share om top of it.

The best way is the get the email addresses from the dealers within 50 miles and send them your RFP (request for proposal) with detail specs of what you want. Have them bid against each other. It has worked real well for me every time. I got about $10,000 off MSRP.

I just bought a Audi A7 for the wife and got $1400 off invoice ($7800 off MSRP) using the same method.

It saves a lot of time and hassle. The winning dealer would have the car and all the paperwork ready for me when I get there. In and out in 30 minutes.

I snagged a manufacturer demo vehicle with less than 5K on the clock. Never titled, I am the first owner, and somebody has already broken it in for me. Doing that enabled me to get a deal similar to the one listed above...at least $10k off, not to mention special rates < 1%.
Good time to be in the market for these kinds of vehicles.

Holein1, do you send the same email to all the dealers, or you email them individually? I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this.

I send a single email, copying all the dealer to let them know they have competition, with a list of my requirements and preferences (including 1st choice and 2nd choice). It is important to let them know that you are ready to buy/lease immediately.

I'd conduct a second round for revised bids once you get the best offers from the first round. I try to limit it 2 rounds and make a commitment not to keep shopping the offers around, just to be fair; but, that is purely up to you.
