    Laura visits Ray's dealership once again at the end of the year to get a good discount on a 2023 Ford Explorer she's had her eye on for a while now. This video will show you what you need to know to successfully negotiate a new car at the end of the year, when dealer discounts/incentives are traditionally highest!

    Ray doesn't act like most dealers I've had the displeasure of negotiating with. First, he didn't start producing an endless string of dealer installed garbage, and acting like my car was going to self-destruct if I didn't get all that garbage. Second, his face didn't turn red and his voice turn hateful when he discovered that we would be working below msrp, rather than above it. Third, he didn't pull out all kinds of personal details about his family, trying to make you feel sorry for him.

      Ray screwed customers for 43 years when he was in the business so don’t act like he is a good guy. The only reason he is telling you how not to get screwed now is cuz he is making money off TH-cam videos. I value Ray’s message in these videos but make no mistake, he screwed people for a long ass time and still slept well at night.

      @@dontdoxmebroI never said that he shouldn’t make money. All I’m saying is that Ray is not a good guy. He spent 40 years deceiving customers into shelling out more money than they needed to when they bought a car. Now Ray wants to be a hero and tell you how to NOT be deceived by car dealerships. He is not a good guy. He is a snake. How come he wasn’t telling all his clients over 40 years that they were getting screwed if they paid dealer markups? I’ll tell you why……cuz he was getting paid handsomely when customers overpaid and if he did tell them the truth, he would not have lasted in that business for 40 years. He has every right to make money off of “suckers” like us but it’s pretty rich that he tried to portray himself as the good guy that wants to help. He is not that at all.

    One thing for you buyers to know is take the selling price of the car multiply that number by the taxes in your city. ADD that to the selling price plus doc fee and divide that by how many months you want to finance. If you can’t make that monthly payment it gives you after calculations then DONT BUY THE CAR. That calculation is before interest

  • @conchobar

    Great video. From my short experience selling cars, the one event that always triggers a sales manager into negotiating mode, is having a customer ready to buy a car but the customer announces they want the car in a color not currently on the lot. For example, I go to a dealer to test drive a red Mazda CX5, but I tell the dealer I really want a silver one, even though I actually prefer the red one. The typical "Color Discount" may not be big, but it starts the negotiation process in a more positive tone than pulling out black book figures.

      Good point. I didn't think of this at the time, but I guess it inadvertently worked in my favor when I bought my (black) Toyota Avalon last year. I told them that I would love the car and buy it on the spot if it were silver, but I'd have to sleep on it whether I really wanted it as it was. Avalons were rare, so not much choice. The next day, I bought it at MSRP, with zero add-ons (not even the stupid mark-up for Nitrogen in the tires, which was supposedly already in there). In February last year, MSRP was a great price. In the meantime, I've grown to love the black color. Not sure whether the hesitation helped, but you do have a good point.

    If you know the actual out the door price of several similar vehicles in your area, just use the comparables of real estate principles. The easiest way I have found is start with asking if a dealership will honor or beat pricing of a competing dealership. If yes, good. Send out the exact make, model, year, packages, color you want to every single dealership within a distance you are willing to drive to make a purchase. Have them compete for your business. When you get a deal you like, go back to your local dealer and say “you said you would honor or beat a competing dealership” if they do the deal great. If they decline, drive to the place that gave you the deal you like and buy it.
    I have been doing this “bid” type system since about 2007 it works great. Do the same thing with a direct from the factory order. Many dealers won’t do it, but the ones that do will compete.

    I did F & I. She's the type of ball buster that you love to hate, BUT I'll give it to her, she was good. However, the realities of the (still) current market place for many dealers (I'm talking about Honda/Toyota/Lexus) are that supply is still tight and unless you're looking at an older used vehicle, they are NOT going to negotiate much off the MSRP if they have a HOT car or SUV.
    ONE good point for any consumer to remember is that when there's a Rebate from the manufacturer to YOU on a specific vehicle, you're entitled to that regardless of what the MSRP or whatever discount the dealers are offering. So, start by taking the rebates (between YOU and manufacturer) right off the starting price. Then, beat up the stealership on the MSRP and try to go into the hold-back because all cars have hold back in them. Typically, start from invoice (available on line) and go from there. Oh, and if there's a BUMP sticker (add on ) and Market Adjustment price, WALK (or run) out of there and don't look back.

    Cash or OTD negotiating - if you can get the dealer to stick to that - it clarifies things; but it was crazy here when I went out looking - virtually all the dealers were doing the payment negotiating and they would not want to even let me look at the car even - kind of would say I'm a poor match to doing business there. So a GM dealer owner (owns the Chrysler dealer now I used to buy from, and surprise Hyundai dealer now) - anyway, the Hyundai dealer manager said "the reason you are being shown the curb at all the dealers you go to is because you want to work off the car price and not payment - and 98% of people are payment shoppers now and we make way more margin and customers are very happy with their low payment. You are a price shopper and if we negotiate on pricing it is actually less profitable, more time consuming, and the risk of walk away is higher. If credit approves "a payment level" we can sell you the highest model, highest margin that payment will allow us to structure. The business manager said - you did not negotiate, I suspect that you just convince us you were right.

      A lot of Toyota dealers are still asking for markups but will come down to MSRP when you tell them how greedy and despicable they are and that you have added their name to the list of Stealerships. Even hybrids. I don’t know about below MSRP, though. There are more and more Toyotas in stock on the lots and fewer buyers. I’m looking for a RAV4 Hybrid. MSRP is the best price I’ve found so far so I will probably wait till the end of the year. Or just order a Tesla Model Y. Get it just the way you order it for the fixed price or find one in inventory for a possible discount. No fuss. No Stealerships. After incentives and rebates, they are about the same price. I may break down eventually and pay MSRP but I will never pay a markup. I also will not pay for dealer add-ons like paint protection, door guards, colored or blackened emblems, or Cilajet.

      Ray an Laura, this was a great video. It motivates me not to lose faith this is actually possible.
      However, Ray was way too friendly and acceptance.
      In my experience, arrive as a small woman alone to a dealership is like a little sheep in a cave full of wolves. Even if they put you to talk with a baby wolf, HE (always in my experience) will try to eat me alive.
      And by eating me alive I mean the seller is going to attempt to put me down, bully me, treat me as second class citizen, stupid and less that a person.
      I am so tired of it. I haven't had the opportunity to deal with a saleswoman yet, but I wonder if she would be a momma wolf too?
      Not only car salespeople are trained to rip off their customers, their sales style brings out all the sexism, racism, and all the unconscious biases they may carry, and people like me have to put up with it.
      I am so grateful to Caredge to offer these videos for free. They are eye opener and have help me to be strong again after my first experience buying a car, in which I fell for all their tricks.
      Now, every time, I go to the dealership and listen to their wolf aggressive techniques, I just laugh internally, remember Ray and Zach's teachings and continue negotiating.
      I haven't bought the car I want, but I will share my testimony when I get the fair deal I hope to get.

    I like how she did the research. Couple issues that would negotiate better and faster. 1. Have them breakout the rebates from dealer discounts. 2. Don’t deal with a middle man since he said he will do what he can. As I learned in business deal with the people who have the power to make the decision because things get lost in transportation. 3. Ask for more than your willing to accept. They will go back and forth, but you will more likely shoot for less than you ask for and get to what your willing to accept.

    Dealers can sell @ invoice and still make money.

    I remember my father buying a 1970 Buick for $4,200 sticker price and out the door price was $3,500. These people are only talking a couple thousand dollars discount on $58,000 ! What's wrong with this picture? I'm surprised people aren't pulling cars out of the junk yard and repairing them!

    • @SenecaRaine
      @SenecaRaine 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      One thing to keep in mind is that inflation causes general cash efficiency to be halved every 18 years on average, essentially doubling the price of some items. 4200 became 8400 in 88, 16800 in 06, and 33600 in 24. We still had way too much of a jump beyond that, but it gives some more context for the comparison.

  • @josephprice9733

    Ray, I think at the first of the video that she used verbiage that may decrease the chance of her getting a better deal. First, she showed how excited she was on the test drive, allowing the salesman to see it and mention it. She agreed, saying she "100%" enjoyed it and that she is "thrilled". Secondly she has mentioned that she has had her "eye on this car for a long time" and she's "really excited" about the opportunity to buy it. Would this approach be detrimental to getting the absolute lowest price? I would have thought that we would go into the deal with a more neutral approach?

    • @CarEdge
      @CarEdge  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +31

      Typically using words like thrilled and really excited about the vehicle signal to the salesperson that the customer will be an easy mark and in most cases that would be true. However some buyers can share that excitement and still work a good deal because they are informed and are prepared to leave if their desired price isn't met. Having said that, I would suggest that not showing your excitement for the vehicle while remaining somewhat ambivalent often times might lead to a better deal more quickly. Either way can be successful. All the best, Ray

    Tell them the only way they can earn your business is by penciling the deal on a printout of the factory invoice. If they're a transparent dealership, they'll have no problem showing the markup, the holdback, and the floor plan assistance (all of which are line items on the invoice).
