What do you Reckon?
$1000 over invoice is what Erhard likes to get. I got an offer for $700 over invoice (which includes some perks with their privilege program). I've read lots of posts on the forum about people getting anywhere from invoice up to over $1000 above invoice.

My personal feeling on this is that spending a few hundred bucks more is worth it if you've got a good relationship with the dealer and want to do business with them. I was more than happy to get the price I got even if it's a bit "high" when compared to some other parts of the country. By the time I shipped the car or went somewhere to get it, I'd be right at the local dealers' prices.

You can always shop the numbers around to Grand Blanc or Erhard and see what they're willing to do. I've got a huge loyalty to Erhard because of how they treated me with my 330, so it all comes down to what's going to make you happy. I read a post here that said "If you feel good about it, it's a good deal." You can't get any wiser than that.
