If you see a particular car you want, you can easily calculate the percentage off MSRP to see if you’re getting a good deal by comparing it to AutoBrag’s discount statistics.
How To Calculate The % Off MSRP: MSRP - Invoice Price = X / MSRP = Y (move the decimal point over two digits to the right and that’s the percentage you’re saving.

There are 3 methods to obtain this deal:

1. Before you begin calling or visiting every dealership, I highly recommend you start a virtual negotiation with your surrounding dealers through Braggle on . You basically place anonymous offers to all dealerships within a 25 to 200 mile radius within your zip code. Dealerships get to compete for your business without gaining your contact information. This method is the easiest procedure and it’s free of charge.

2. Another option is to either buy the car directly from the dealership hosting the deal. You’d have to contact their Internet Sales/Fleet Manager to close the deal. Then, travel to that dealership or have them deliver it to you, which can be costly.

3. The third option is to compare this deal with the inventory at your local dealerships and hope they’ll honor the deal. I recommend printing out all the blue links above and taking them to your local dealerships. But before you go, we suggest you call and make an appointment to see the Internet Fleet Manager because he/she work with internet deals. Avoid the floor salesmen, head straight to the Internet Sales Manager.
Below is an explanation of the data above and how they apply to all the methods.

The first blue link breaks down the numbers so that you don’t have to do any math or researching. You’ll see exactly how much money you’re saving if you pay the “Internet Price”. It also lists the National Average Discount, the National Maximum Discount and the National Average Price for each vehicle. We also provide our personal opinion to whether we think the deal is good or not.

If we approve the deal, we’ll show a thumbs up and “Bring Your Checkbook“.
If we think the deal is ok, we’ll show a thumb tilted sideways and “Fair Market“.
If we disapprove the deal, we’ll show a thumbs down and “Keep Shopping“.

The second blue link is the proof you’ll need when you step foot onto the dealership. Don’t leave home without it! It’s the page that shows the price which you’ll be asking for. It’s basically what you need to pull up on their computers if they don’t believe you found that price online form that dealer’s inventory.
If they don’t believe your prices, ask to use one of their computers so they can see where these figures came from. It’ll be impossible for them to doubt you because you’re pulling up dealership’s website and checking their inventory. It may take a few tries before a dealership agrees to honor the deal.
