MSRP for a fully loaded 6MT sedan without aero in Cali is about $36,500...

Paying MSRP on an 05 is a joke. Edmunds cant factor everything in, like I said if you grab four people who want 06s then you will get a discount. Speaking of Edmunds, I was interviewed by US News and World Report via Edmunds, to talk about my recent car buying purchase, lets see if they quote me by name haha.

So you may be able to get a lower price if you finance, but they'll give you a higher rate (not that you'll ever know) on the financing.

Actually it depends, lot of times dealers try to give you a good pricing on the car thinking they can recoup some of it by fudging the numbers a bit in the finance dept. If you can pay cash for your car the way I would play it is go talk to the salesman, kinda let him know that you want to finance through the dealer, get the best price you can in writing and signed off by the manager. Then when you get to the finance guy bait and switch on HIS a$$

BOOM...bust out with the check! Of course not all dealers do this "good-price-bad financing" but theres plenty that do.
