A dealership in Mississippi is going to try and email me a copy of the window sticker for a GT they have coming in.

Blue (not sure which blue, but I like both)
Light Graphite interior
Automatic

Judging the MSRP is looks to have just about all the options I could want and more AND they are selling it $2100 below MSRP. I will have to pay MSRP at my local dealership. That savings will be worth the drive and we might can visit my father-in-law during the trip!

I found that one on autotrader.com, but I have checked at Forddirect.com too - no luck there.

I'm not sure what the invoice is, but I figured that price was pretty close to it.

MSRP is $28,645
Price is $26,556

I hope they stick to it!

My dealer had to tell management that he has to stick to the price he gave me (which was MSRP) in August. Management wanted to mark up another $2995!! (and they've sold 2 already WITH the $2995 mark up)

GOOD LUCK!!

Since you are a girl I will say I hope this car is Little Mr. Right - and it is right now and the right deal. Good luck.

Getting a deal that saves enough - but creates the need for travel is kind of a blessing.

I was hoping to lay the ground work for just such a thing when I bought my last boat. I contacted tons and tons of dealers (I first built a data base on all the dealers in the USA - then the emails went out) that carried the brand (it is a twin-engine Sea-Doo boat not a PWC).

I told them all I was after was the best deal no matter where it was. In this case there was no color or options to get in the way - I wanted a Speedster and they were all the very same color etc.

What happened was uneventful. The offers started coming in and I started getting educated. I became the one with the power.

I saved the dealer in my town (Kansas City) for last. By that time I was full of confidence and did not care what the dealer said - I already had a couple "bagged" that would make a nice trip.

I really wanted the trip (to go fetch my new boat) but the KC dealer (I went right for the owner - I had his name from research) gave me a deal that was equal to the best deal I had found. He had just told me what I did not want to hear lol. I had no excuse for the travel so ........

Since his price killed my potential fun - I offered him 500 less and hoped he would not sell it for that. He said "okay" - shoot lol.

BTW - I hope everyone knows that just because a dealer "shows you" the invoice that don't really mean much. I am pretty sure there is an "invoice" and there is an "invoice" papers to show.

After I had bought and paid for the boat above. The owner seemed kind of like he was wondering just what he did pay for the boat and started to look for the info. This was AFTER. He found it and showed it to me while he was looking at it. His shipping cost was also on the paper (there were three boats on that paper). As far as I could tell he made 25 bucks.

(yes different item different times but my point is the trip)

I have been all over the place bringing home my new boats - I have yet to buy a car out of town - maybe that will change the next time

what i meant was, forddirect.com lets you search a particular dealer's inventory and then you would be able to view the options of the car along with the MSRP and Invoice price

Oh I see what you mean. No I didn't check that dealer's inventory on forddirect. It was a dead end anyway. The autotrader listing was wrong. Oh well, back to square one.
