OTD price for 2016 GS ???
Anyone have an idea avoid I should be paying for a 2016 GS. It will most likely have to be built because I'm not going to pay for options that I don't like or even need. The only options and I'm getting are those that involve safety. Car must have 18 inch wheels also. For example things that I won't be getting are spoiler, mats, wheel locks and net., one touch trunk opener.
I don't care how they allocate or where they allocate the funds to. I just want to know the number I need to write a check to leave the dealership with the car.

How about playing with TrueCar.com? Add the options you want and hopefully your dealership has it. If it's special order, it might be more expensive than what's already in inventory. Don't forget to add the tax/registration for OTD price.

The true card thing just sent me over to the dealer but I was already dealing with so the didn't really work out real well.
From what I've seen it's definitely less expensive to order your car that way you only pay for the options you want. The only thing is you have to worry about three months get it because it's order direct from the factory.
Some of the dealers don't seem to want to order a car which leads me to believe there's not as much profit for them in doing so. I've been told we can find you something close not exactly what you want and I said I'm not paying for options I don't want need or desire

Yes, its cheaper for the dealership to order you a car because they know they won't have to stock it, wait, and pay overhead costs in financing it while it sits there on the lot.
An ordered car is considered sold and will cost the dealer a lot less.
You should be able to negotiate the price of the car closer to invoice even on an 2016.
After negotiations, find out if the deposit is refundable or not - that will determine if you really want that ordered car during the 3 months....

For Lexus tho, they make you pay msrp plus deposit for any order. Its always cheaper to buy a Lexus off the lot.

For BMWs this is exactly the philosophy that they preach. Usually invoice - discounts or new model is invoice + 500-1000, and they can order the car exactly how you want it.

I will not agree to those terms.

Special Order= MSRP (due to in demand)
Deposit (Refundable but most dealers are straight NON-Refundable) deducted off of the total price of car
However if you choose one of our lease spec specials alot more wiggleroom.

Truecar's estimate seems very accurate. I bought a 2016 GS two weeks ago and Truecar's estimate was dead-on what I paid for it. So I think you can take a couple of % off the Truecar estimate for what you want and start there.
I think you could find something very close to what you want, even if it has a few extra options. You can always tell the salesperson you won't pay for it. I doubt someone wants to lose a sale over a $400 power trunk (which is a very common option).

The truecar.com website needs to be gamed to get the best price out of it.
The zip code you should use is not necessarily where you live.
For example, if you live in Southern CA, as I do, put in a zip code for a couple different areas of Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego.
The pricing results are startlingly different.
Then, don't count on true car.com to have the lowest price.
Dealers pay to use that service and that adds to the cost of the car you ultimately buy.
Your best price may very well be from a dealer that does not show up on true car.com results.

I special ordered my 2016 GS 350 F-Sport and had no issues with the dealer on the special order. Had to write a check for a $1,000 deposit (refundable) and negotiated my purchase price, which was invoice. So yes, you can still get a deal on a special order...guess it depends on the dealer.
