If the prices will be the same after the event, I will just get one in January or February. Who knows, maybe I will get them to come down to 45.5 or 46 and closer to home.

Just an update for you guys. The sales guy emailed me and said the December to remember event really only reflects the incentives, ie. Rebates and 0.9% financing.

Yes, but it also corresponds with end of the year, where dealers try to get rid of as many units as possible (to meet quota). This means they are more likely to lower the invoice cost.

Not a very accurate calculation.

However, thank you guys for the responses. I had one dealer willing to go to $46,499 with exact options. With that in mind, it was mentioned that the prices are good through January 5th on this sale. Does this mean the prices will go up after that?
You need to do the individual build to skip lux and tech.

Right; I get AWD 350 @ 46.2 with NV BD, RWD @ 45.3 for Miami, DC was $+600. The cars.com build was less within $100. Remember, this is a STARTING point, try negotiating from lower at first.

Those numbers make more sense than $55+ !

Right, who knows if the prices will remain the same for Jan. or Feb.??? I'm thinking the same way - if it doesn't happen between now and Jan. 5, then it wasn't meant to be. So far, another dealer got involved and gave me a better price than my closest dealer. Still negotiating!

True. Dealers want to sell cars and bring in new inventory. That said, they'll do whatever (apparently) to move those " leftovers"
