I don't know what dealer you are at. I asked Titus-will or order one for me at MSRP. Answer was NO. I contacted every dealer from Olympia to Everett that had a car that was not triple black and every single one of the had an ADM, the lowest was $5K.
I don't know who the GSM's were. Buddy with...
Brian,
I am not singling you out. I am a life long car guy and run in those circles.
Buyers hate ADM's. They stay pissed forever. I am not suggesting you sell for less than MSRP. I am suggesting you cultivate a loyal brand and dealership following that come back to you time and time again...
There is something called holdback, which is like a rebate to the dealer on all sales, not to mention sweetheart flooring packages a volume rewards.

Sounds like your dealership is one to pass up?
You can shear sheep over and over, but you can cut them only once. :thumbdown:
Oh, yeah got my FGT at MSRP and both an 08' and my current GT500 for under by moving on to the next dealer as you suggest.
I think Chrysler's approach will...
Although a huge improvement over the Base/GT I would like it more if the headlight and it's assembly were about 10% larger and if the bumper did not drop down as much in the center where it borders the upper grille.
That is about it, love everything else including the N/N FPC motor, big rubber...
