I've used 3% and been successful... however that 3% is over the listed invoice price minus incentives, but for most dealerships there are hidden incentives to the dealer from the company that you can't (and probably shouldn't try to) negotiate.

I hate car buying. My last experience on the 'final' offer back from them, the sales manager took my offer and added 1 cent to the price. I was very close to telling them to fata off at that moment. It's been a long time since I wanted to punch someone over something seemingly trivial.

Such a frustrating experience.

And I'm going to have to redo it all over again soon. I'm taking the advice about emailing. I don't have any more energy to get so angry about things. I've read the sales managers hate email shoppers, but to be honest, that's the way things have gotten because of all these bad experiences have soured people so thoroughly.
