Default Re: Anyone get any freebies/Discounts?

No insult intended but without knowing the final bottom line number and how it was arrived at, what does "about $800" and "cost of freight" taken off really mean? I hope he got a great deal and I don't want to rain on anyone's parade. Dealers will add anything to a sticker price and then take stuff off to make it look like a great deal. Read a recent article in Car and Driver as to what goes on in the business.

At the end of the day, I don't really care if some other Joe beats the price I'm paying by $500. If I'm happy with the deal in front of me, I buy the deal.

My 'deal', ordered 6 weeks ago, due in on 6/15, is covered by an offer sheet printed by the dealer. It is MSRP less $500. I was told by the salesman that they usually charge a $199 dealer document & car prep fee. Not paying any of that extra stuff.
