strategy for buying, dealer qouted 28,133

Dealer quoted me, 28,133 with wheel locks, which is a couple of hundred over invoice. I didn't even bargain, he just said this is what I what can give you. Two possibilities, one he's trying to get rid of the car or he wants to cut through the BS. It's a 2001, cl-typeS and it's sitting on the lot. My thinking is to take this quote to other dealerships and ask to thrown in stuff or ask them to give me the car at invoice. Any ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks for bearing with me. I dream of the CLS in my sleep and will buy it.....that shall be mission.

That's really not a bad deal. The invoice on that car (no navi) is 28,128, so he's actually only $5 over invoice!! Plus you're getting wheel locks (about $40). Keep in mind that he's probably trying to move it off the lot b/c the 2002 CL-S' are due in July. If I were you, I'd jump on that deal!! There's really no differences between the '01 and '02 so save yourself some cash and buy the CL now!! Good luck !!

If you want the car, jump on that deal. I would be surprised if you find a better price than that. Another dealer might beat their price by a couple of bucks. That is a great price. I thought I got a deal at 28.7

woops, sorry hehe Silver. I saw PDG. I could be cool on some level but I just see myself driving it. That's what I was thinking. I'm going to talk to another dealer and see if they'll match the price with a spoiler and if not ask for it at invoice $27,648.

Another thing to look out for is the paper work charge. I've heard of dealers adding upto $500 for that (it cost them about $50.00 to process the paper work).
