I'm not against a dealership making money, and I realize that it is a business. I just don't understand some of the ridiculous premiums some dealers like to charge, and justify those premiums with some of the stuff mentioned by our SAs of the board. It's not like new car sales are the only source of income you guys have, but you make it out to be that way.

In any case, anything above $1,500 over invoice is overcharge imo. Likewise, after reading some of your posts, I can see why you think $XXX over invoice is too little. $1,000 seems to be a good medium.

I see what your saying but I wish everything was list price. Saturn does it and makes good profit on every car and the customers dont complaign they are overcharged when actually they are doing the same thing as me charging you sticker. I am hoping all manufacturers do this as all customers get the same deal and at the same time they make more money per car. I give saturn credit for such a great idea. Make money on everyone and they love you. It does not get any better than that. Its also good because customers will buy a car where they were treated right and I know I would make it so they would buy from me.
