The last time I bought a car, I researched it on edmunds, knew what the option pricing was. I went in, they had a car I wanted and th price was a grand cheaper than edmunds reported. I thought it fair, didn't even haggle
If it was zero down for the price you wanted, why not. A few years ago it made sense to take the 0,, 1 or 2% financing. Buy a CD at 5% and make the bank give you money. Nowdays, interest rate at banks suck and you cannot pull that.
Nope. They want to play a fucking game. Game on. Fuck them.
Tell them you want to trade in your vehicle too. They will lowball the sales price of the new one in order to get your used car. When it comes time to seal the deal, tell them you are paying cash and they cannot have the used car.
You have some leverage if it's an unpopular model that's not moving.But they will not negotiate on the manufacturer give back. They also will get you back on parts and service.

Here's another trick. They will give you the price you want, the trade in value you want, the terms you want, everything you want and you will think you are kings of the wheeler dealers. You'll get home after showing everyone your new car and the next day will get a phone call from the dealership.Your financing didn't go through and they're going to have to re-work the contract and will need another $2K down. You'll go no way, give me my old car back. Well it'll already have been sold or auctioned off or crushed, you won't be getting it back.So you don't have a car. Most people will bend over and go for the new terms.

I have been looking for a new vehicle but cannot find one. No one makes a vehicle I like.
What I would really want is an updated version of a two door Tahoe, full size or a Ford Bronco, full sized. Or a Defender 90, that was brand new. Money is no object but they don't make cool vehicles anymore.

I really like that vehicle. A lot. Especially because of the head room. Too bad they don't make a 4Runner with a spartan interior like that. My wife has the Lexus chassis version of the new 4Runner. Excellent vehicle.

Agreed. Those types of manly vehicles have all been turned into over accessorized, blinged out grocery getters.

And smart people tell them to fuck off, keep the car and tell them to talk to your lawyer.
Motorcycle. Just go through the whole process and then get a payoff quote a month or two later. They'll love it.
fuck them.
I did that with my apartment mortgage on my birthday. Walked in the door with the last $29k and they flipped out. The loans manager cunt came scuttling out of her office croaking angrily "YOU CAN'T DO THAT". Yes I can BITcH...I negotiated an open mortgage...

Dealers and financing companies have seen it all before and have contingency plans, so have fun in arbitration for the next six months while carless
Just pay them a fair price with a little profit and quit being such a tightwad. Car sales people have ADHD retarded, futureless kids to feed, too.
