Canadians: what did you pay for you P5?
I'd like to know how much dealers can deal on these things. I saw American invoice and MSRP and there appears to be a 9.8% markup. Higher than I thought for such an inexpensive car. The one I want stickers for 22,590. Is it reasonable to ask for $2k off? $1k for sure.
What did you pay and what options do you have? Thanks.

Not bad. That's about $1200 off. How do you like your Racing Beat springs? How much, how hard to put in and how much did it lower it?
Nah, I like my name. I'd get it as my license plate if they approved it

Car is lowered 0.75" all around. RB been discussed in the past, do search.
Installing is not difficult if you know how to work with wrenches and aware of safety precautions, I did it myself in 3 hours.
I like them because ride is almost as stock and there's enough suspension travel to absorb bigger bumps.

According to www.carcostcanada.com when I checked a couple of weeks ago, there's a $1566 difference between dealer cost and MSRP (dealer cost on a P5, stick/metallic/air/roof is $20,234; list $21,800).
I ended up paying $21,500 for that car including tape deck, trunk tray and hood deflector (about $450 in accessories). Decent enough deal for me.

Thanks, I checked it out. Not a big fan of foam filters though. I think I like the AEM intake better IMO.

Best of luck either way.

That was probably (at least I hope so) with taxes in. We pay 14.5% tax here so if I can get one for $22k, I'm looking at $25,190 after tax.
I got a few quotes in: $22,590 (MSRP) , $22,395 and $22,150. And these are just email "internet pricing" quotes. I expect to about $500 less so around $21,700 or so.
