Don't waste the dealer's time with such a low offer...no way will they consider such an offer and if you are serious about buying you'll just make a fool out of yourself - they are not giving away cars no matter how bad the media says the economy is.

But you should be able to get 12-14% off, MAYBE a bit better.

And I wish everyone would quit whining about IMS/RMS issues.

Agreed x 2.

If you focus on something long enough and hard enough, you just might get it. Psychokinetic Energy or Hypochondria or Law of Attraction .... use it well.

Why don't you just ask to see their invoice with the understanding that they will make some profit on the deal. A simple question that requires them to answer "Yes" or "No"

I was looking at an '09 Cayenne at my Porsche dealer last week, settled on an '06 from CarMax with 9,100 miles on the clock. I added a 6 year, 75,000 mile extended warranty and was still thousands under book. Looks, drives, and smells brand new for more than 50% off the price of a new one. To be fair, I've been looking religiously for over 3 months and snapped this 06 up as soon as it showed up on their website.

Oh, that Porsche dealer has an '05 Mercedes SL 500 it took on trade for $42K, they're willing to let it go for $35K. Just be up front and don't be afraid to ask all they can say is no. Good Luck!
