Good price?
 

I got my dealer down to $16,800 U.S. for a Pro5 with the Sunroof, alarm, cargo net, floor mats, destination charge. does that sound good? Did anybody get any lower?

Woops! Sorry, Pro5

Yeah. I paid like MSRP $19.5K. Only thing I got more than you was the 6 disc changer and cassette.

I don't mean to be rude seeing how you're an administrator and all but ummm...maybe you should read his first post one more time...a lil slower. ;) (unless he edited it and if he did then i feel like the ass!!)

But yeah that is a very good price with all those options. 16,800 was what i saw the car as basic.:cool:

He was right I fixed my mistake

damn i hate that edit option sometimes :doh: :beer: :dunce: :crook:

SHHH. What color you getting?

Blue,it will match (almost) my other car. I have to wait until next month for it to show up, but I am traveling a bunch for work so I would not get to enjoy the P5 until then anyway. I am sure the dealer will find a way to charge me more

considering the invoice in my area for a P-5 with NO options is 15,800....with the list of options you got? I say you are on the ballpark for a fair deal. if that price was OUT THE DOOR...as in TTL included...that would be even better! lol for that is about $1G

not bad, i would think its a fair deal. maybe a lil better than fair

I wanted a base model 5 speed with no options, and did some online searching and found I could buy them for $15,349 (everything but TTL) at 2 or 3 different dealerships, all out of my state.

When I went to talk to the boys at my local dealership, I told them I had already found my car and could buy it for that price, so our negotiations began there. I really would have preferred a "dealer demo" with a few miles on it, to further lower the price, but he told me all 3 of his demo's were automatics.

When we began searching for a basic silver 5 speed, lo and behold, out of the 21 P5's on his lot, the only car they had which fit my description was an overlooked "demo" with 5300 miles on it.

We negotiated a little more, and I bought it "out the door" for $14,649, - EVERYTHING included but TTL. I made the sales guy throw in the floormats for free ;)

Don

thats cool DonM, i wouldnt mind buying a demo and save $1000+

i almost got a base silver 5spd for $16k flat plus taxes,etc.

Out the door I paid something like 17200. The only thing I got was polished wheels which were like 500 extra. Sounds like your getting a pretty good deal .

Yea sounds like a good deal. I got mine for $17.2+TTL for an Auto w/moonroof+deflector, mats and all the little stuff etc..

I got mine for $13,900 including a graduate school discount of $400
Its a base pro5 with the floormats and 2 miles on the odometer
out the door everything included it was just a hair over 15 grand

ive been punished though for my good fortune, as ive recently posted..... i scraped my right front wheel on the curb, im such a dumb ass :mad:
