Establishing standards regarding price quotes

Dear Friends,

Please note that I am not an expert in this field but I see a lot of postings about TL prices and get confused by them. For example, someone has posted a TL price as

$300 above invoice.

First of all, as far as I know, there is no Invoice price. The salesmanager B]always[/B] lies about the invoce price. That is how they make extra money. It would be nice if users posted the price they were quoted and if possible the OTD price (out the door price ie. including TTL and all those extra stuff)

So it would be nice if users posted prices as follows:

Ex 1.
TL-P including Protection package (Wheel locks, trunk tray, sunroon visor, all season mats)
$28,000 Before TTL
$30,000 OTD

Ex 2.
TL-S without Navi
$31,500 Before TTL

The more details the better. This would help other users who are planning to buy a TL. Posting the price before TTL is very important as TTL is different for different states.

Please let me know your thoughts,

Thanking you,

-Tom

I would also go to www.greenlight.com and see what price they come up with. They'll give you instant quotes and tell you about incentives, etc. They're Greenlight Prices are pretty good...sometimes below invoice.
