You Rob clearly have no idea what so ever on how to get a real deal on a new car. Teaching people to tell dealers "Please drop your pants and give me your bottom line price and I promise to think about it" Very effective tactics there super car buyer.

it's a brand new 2009 camry le, silver, w/ everything on it from moonroof, spoiler to nav. sys. & tin windows. was asked 26.5 @ 1st, which was ridiculous counting that i've got very good credit. then i got out less than 23 final price, plus 1k+ from financing (tried to give me 6.8%, but finally got 3.9% - on sale thing). so, that's how i figured i got 5 k there.

new or used? Had the car been hit coming off the truck? Did you verify the reputation of the dealership your purchased from? Just saying 5g's is nice, but a company like toyota isn't that desperate to sell a car these days. I find your statement hard to believe.

Gap insurance is like purchasing peace of mind. It's not like you buy it and expect to total your car in the near future. Its insurance!

This guy isn't giving out advise that is new to buying a car. If you are ignorant enough not to read up on market, trade, and invoice prices (which aren't always accurate online) then why are you complaining about not getting your best deal and that the dealership cheated you out of money? I advocate smart shopping, but I am also for keeping everyone in business. Everyone has bills to pay. Don't assume every sales person is a shark. A good sales rep wants to have customer walk away happy.

Keep in mind this is a general example and may not apply to everyone.

In defense to anyone that may say..."Well just sell your car privately to make more money." Sometimes it isn't cost effective to wait to sell your car privately. I.E. If you drive a BMW and want to save money as opposed to spending 1500 or more a month on gas,insurance, etc. If a dealer offered you 15k leaving you with 4 k of neg. equity at that moment your out 4k. If it takes you 3 months to sell the car:1500 *3=4500 you just lost 500 more than if you would have traded the car in at the dealer.

Let me start from the "don't buy anything" section. When customers come in to purchase a car there are situations where customers are upside down on their trades. Like today with trucks and big SUV's. It would be wise in these cases to "purchase" GAP coverage. Gap coverage insures that if the car is declared a total lose before the loan is paid off you aren't stuck paying any negative balance that your insurance company wouldn't cover. Just saying NO to everyone could cost your more long term.
