I love how people feel they are "owed" some sort of discount. If they let you leave and didn't make any sort of follow up offer, then they aren't interested in selling you the car beneath that price...whether its no-haggle or not. Business is business.

Don't turn down a good deal and a good car just because you feel "wronged" because they wouldn't haggle with you. Thats an emotional response, emotional responses have no place in business.
Yes,if it's a good deal but that's rare.
If it's an asking price on used vehicle,99% of the time,it's overpriced.
I've traded in many vehicles and saw those vehicles at 20%-25+% over trade in number.

As have I, but to use my 2010 ES as an example. They gave me $25k, they listed it for $27,900 certified. I think thats pretty fair.

Yes,that's fair and a good deal.Especially if CPO.
I got $32000 on my '12 ES and they were asking $37995.
5K miles and I don't believe CPO.
