sorry, my cat jumped on my lap and my first message got sent.  but i see it did not even post to the board..

anyway, it was for a 2007 accent 2 door. 

thanks for any tips you can provide in negotiating a good price

ps. no way it could have been a FIT, as they don't leave the lot for less than $23K unless you bring your own KY

Friend of ours wanted the Fit Sport.  $20's for it...she ended up with a Vibe AWD.  I'd go with that car too...lots of good deals on them and they are a decent vehicle with their partnership with Toyota.  The Vibe/Matrix has been a good seller with the Vibe getting the better looks. 

Tips on getting a good price?  Carcostcanada to get the invoice price, the markup, the incentives etc....and work in a fair profit for the dealer and you have your new car.

Ugh - I can't stand the Pontiac style snout.  Tongue Tongue Matrix looks much better in my humble opinion.  Wink

actually, you know something; what you said means something to me.  my employer sais i get a car deal of "dealer + 4%" with honda (at specific dealer only), GM & ford (canada wide) .  so, when i went to honda and asked that they showed the MSRP price.  so i was confused.

now i know they just tried to screw me. 

so, when i go to GM tomorrow and ask about their pontiac wave price will be be sure to ask their dealer price and show discount.  thanks! 

hope we are still on topic Smiley

BTW, the Wave/Aveo/Swift+ is probably the WORST car currently available in North America. The one I drove last summer was pathetic in almost all regards. It is a rebadged Daewoo. Buy it only if you have very low expectations, care nothing for resale value, don't mind poor gas mileage (for its class), poor handling, a gutless engine (even for its class) and iffy reliability.

If you actually knew something, I would have to put in a lot of effort grading your work. That was unnecessary since you confessed to complete ignorance, thus saving me a great deal of time and toil. That's worth an A+ in my retired books.  Grin Grin

Can't seem to get anything less than $500 over Dealer invoice for Toyota Corolla 2007 CE.

Anyone know why?  APA charging $600 over invoice, and ARL (at work) $500.  Is it because the Toyota is so popular or am I doing something wrong?

How much is $500 over invoice in $$$ under MSRP?  Personally, I think $500 over invoice sounds good on a 2007 Toyota. 

Have you tried the Mazda 3 yet?
