Yes it should be. I’m in the boat that not getting the exact color you want will never be worth it. So make sure you love it!
How does that work? The window sticker that the dealership provided me was identical to the one shown on Ford's website. I also did build it on Ford's website which gave me the same price. As I understand it Ford creates the window sticker not the dealership. Am I misinformed?
I was quoted 2K off sticker but the cavoite was I had to finance the vehicle with Ford. It appears a great deal if you can get 3K off the sticker with the Marsh Grey.... I would go for it.
Correct, Ford creates the Monroney labels (window sticker). It is required by law for auto manufacturers to create them and display them in an easy to see place before leaving the assembly plant
It's off sticker, but of course they add processing fee.
If they want me to finance it, I'm walking.
Nope doesn't sound like it. Sounds like you literally did exactly as I suggested. Formerly being in the business, they will be specific with word play. They will use the words like "3k off the sticker" rather than "3k off MSRP" and make people feel good that they got 3k off their sticker that was actually marked up 7k over the MSRP using terms like "fair market adjustment" and upcharging for every lil thing they did like $800 floor mats or $1,200 conditioning fee etc... and whatever else they can build the price up...most will have 2 prices on the vehicle, the actual MSRP paper taped to a window as well as their upcharges with a final price INCLUDING their upcharges... No manufacturer calls the MSRP the "sticker" price that is a dealership term from when they put number stickers on the window to show the price. The sticker is what the dealer wants to sell for. Just saying people have to be specific because the dealership saying sticker may not mean MSRP. Guess you happened to find a honest dealership that didn't try to sell or include anything else in the price. When I bought my RR I called all over the country and heard multiple times "are you aware of the namesake mark up" or told straight up " There is no way we are selling it at MSRP".
I had the same kind of interactions with dealerships when I asked for below MSRP price.
COOKIES, NICE! They are out there just far and few between. Bought my Bronco Badlands from Granger Motors in IA at 5% under MSRP and they were also legit and hassel free and stayed true to the deal even 2 years later from when I placed the pre order. no cookies but good. I called them to buy my RR from them but they couldn't do it.
You're not misinformed but "sticker" can also mean their price after the add-ons, which they can also stick to a window. It's dishonest and bullshit, but some dealers will try it. My local one did. "Oh, that's not the sticker I was talking about, this is the actual sticker". Yeah, bye.
