Another pricing question-is this 'good'?

[72C10chevy4x4]

I received a quote from my local dealer, $2900 off the sticker for a 2500 Sprinter w/ the options I choose. I calculated the amount to be 6.8% off MSRP-someone posted (on this site) around 9% off is invoice, but I've read a bit of conflicting info here, some of which may be sensitive to the time of the posting. One poster couldn't get dealers to budge off sticker price while another poster (different thread) said you should be able to get a Sprinter for $300-$1000 over invoice.

Does the dealer pay invoice? What's a 'good' price in relation to MSRP (or invoice). I've been hunting down a Calcite Yellow 2500, but there do not seem to be many on the east coast!

I got mine for $300 over invoice, this is for a T1N though. I think one person with an NCV3 got it also for that price.

You really need to shop around and be open to going out of state. I lucked out in getting it at that price with a local dealership, but mine was ordered with the options that I wanted and I was willing to wait.

I live on the East coast and the dealerships that handled Sprinters were very limited. I paid 1,250 over Invoice for a 2006, however, the MSRP pricing has increased greatly. Edmunds TMV at the time was +1,000 over invoice (so I paid a slight premium).
I see you want to enter into Business link and so this must be a business vehicle ... what's your time worth? I quickly fiqured shopping all over the state to try to save several hundred dollars made no sense. That time could easily go into the business. Here's my advice if you want to shop it. DON'T PERSONALLY VISIT EACH DEALER.
We just bought a new subaru for wife and paid -1,500 below TMV and $500 below invoice. He's how we did it. I just called each dealer and asked for the new car sales manager. I looked at their inventory online and asked for the best price ... they are use to this internet shopping and are happy to deal with you. If they are not, don't give them your business. Anyway, this dealer came in way below everyone else because he had to hit a sales goal. While he gave our vehicle away, economically it made huge sense for this salesperson / dealership from a compensation standpoint. The total time invested from when we decided to buy a subaru, looking at inventory, calling dealerships, and finally signing the paperwork took a total of 5 hours.
My advice. You know what you want, make the calls, and close the deal AND GO TO WORK.:drool:
