Is that going to insult the dealer?

I would imagine that is well under invoice, so maybe it might yeah.

Unless the stealership is having a bard month you may get told to move on.

actually i think that is a reasonable offer, its just about invoice price. im just not sure how FJ's are selling in your area. i paid invoice for my FJ last weekend, so be stern and get it for invoice....good luck making the deal!!

How many does he have on the lot?
If only one, move on to the next dealership unless he comes close to your price...

Just my opinion...

You can never insult a car dealer. Go with it. Then you'll have a purchase or a negotiating point. Good luck.

I think its a good deal, I paid 36,995 for my Voodoo blue 4x4, roof rack,subwoofer,parking sensor etc. etc.

So here is what the dealer came back with.

27,509.07 plus TTL

Seemed reasonable to me, however, when I got there, they didn't have the car I wanted. Not a happy camper right now!!!

I think you can get it for $26,800 +/- a couple hundred dollars. I got mine for $25,800 with all you mentioned except it's a 4x2. I bought mine a couple of months. Since then gas prices have gone up so you should have more leverage.

That price seems to be nearly Invoice (is it? Did you research that first? Check nadaguides.com, kbb.com, edmunds.com, or many others), so I'd say that's a pretty good deal. You may have to pay more depending on color, location, timing, weather, mood, and hunger level.

And, no, you can't insult the dealer. They do this all day long.
