Hey guys - I'm trying to bite the bullet on a new 2010 G37 coupe premium/sport/nav with an MSRP of $45,500. According to truecar.com, the invoice is $41,652. I am being offered $1k below that. They said that is their actual cost (except for the holdback). I questioned him about truecar saying the dealer cost is $39,760 and he said that $40,652 is their cost after $1k dealer cash incentives.

I thought "Invoice" wasn't truly what the dealer pays? He says this is making 0 money for them.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks!
Stephen

 

the dealer wouldnt sell the car if he wasnt making money off it..there in business to make money...its simply a way to make u feel llike you have an amazing deal. the deal doesnt sound bad, thats about how much i paid for my 09.

 

I suggest that you check out this site.

CarBuyingTips.com new car buying guide, avoiding dealer scams, new cars, used car buying

this site explains everything you need to know about how to buy a car.

I actually used truecar and worked out great. Try to offer lower range of the graph (below invoice). Dealers can still make money selling car at below invoice.

 

I think that's a food deal.. I bought mine (10 G37x coupe) at the invoce less $1000 and free 2 year maint. and 0 finance. Thats through VPP.

 

it changes on a montly basis but if you feel it's a good deal then take it

 

I payed for my 2008 coupe back in october of 08 for 42k out the door. car was priced at 45k

 

Sounds like a good deal to me. I paid $39k + TTL for my 2010 similarly optioned back in March but I got VPP....
