The internet is enabling buyers of new cars to purchase at
pre-negotiated, rock bottom prices without hassle. How is this possible? Dealers have
considerable overhead associated with showroom sales. There is time required on the part
of the sales manager in going "back and forth" between the salesman and the
customer regarding continuously changing offers. There is a sales commission to the
salesman on the floor, too. The internet makes this process obsolete, since there are no
middlemen involved. A sales manager agrees to sell a car at a prenegotiated price –
say $500 over dealer’s invoice. If you agree to this price, you can just go to the
dealer and take delivery of the vehicle. There is no fuss, and it is win/win for both you
and the dealer. This novel strategy, made possible on a large scale because of the
internet, is dramatically changing the $1 trillion per year auto retailing business.
A Summary of Online Buying and Leasing
- Determine the invoice price of a car first (using
CarPrices.com dealer invoice pricing data). We provide you with the invoice pricing of
not just the car, but of all the options that are available for that car.
- Complete the free, no-obligation AutoVantage price quotation form.
- You will receive an email from AutoVantage with the name of
a local participating dealer in your area.
- You will also receive in this email a guaranteed price for
this car (e.g., $400 over dealer’s invoice) and a confirmation number. You will also
be notified of any current dealer rebates in this email. Dealers are allowed to add
gasoline and advertising costs to invoice costs, but must inform you what these are if you
ask. (Fixed, non-negotiable, just-above invoice prices occassionally may not apply for
rare or specialty cars).
- You are guaranteed to be able to lease or purchase the car
at this price. Print out our dealer invoice price and the confirming email from
AutoVantage and take it with you to the dealer. With leasing programs, this will be
the final negotiated price from which all other information will be based.
- Arrange for payment or leasing at this fixed low price and
drive home your new car!
No headaches, no greasy
handshakes, and no two-tone shoes!
