[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 738247, member: 6354"] You have to be willing to walk if you can't get your price. Dealers actually assume you'll be begging them to let you have it, whatever it takes. They forget they ought to be begging you to take it, whatever it takes. Years and years ago I looked at a '90 or '91 Mitsu Galant VR-4. Rare, the all-wheel-drive turbo driveline from the Eclipse but in a well-appointed sedan. And this one was well appointed: leather, power everything, blah blah blah. It had been on their lot [I]7 months[/I], so I knew I could steal it. Made an offer, they countered a grand higher. I walked. The following week the car is on TV at my price!!! Oh, well, I'd bought something else somewhere else in the meantime. [/QUOTE]
