Most should be quoting their deals based on negotiated price including the destination charge.
Doc/Prep fees (I paid $299, standard), tax, tags, title/license fees should not be included as it varies state-to-state and by dealers.
BTW...I got mine for $500 over invoice.

I would've waited for VPP, since my company does business with Nissan. However, I wanted to sell my Mazda6 before the warranty was up, and I fell in love with the G a long time ago. That said, I got my G35s 6MT (very rare at the time) before the launch. Mine was from the first shipment that arrived early. It was probably one of maybe 10 6MTs in northern California. At the time, the best anyone had on this forum was $1000 off MSRP. I got mine for $1750 off.
No, not the greatest deal, but considering the timing, and the dealer had exactly what I wanted (6mt + prem + nav + splash guards, stone -- and I jumped ship from Lakeshore Slate to Blue Slate), I was happy with the transaction.

invoice at 32950
purchased at 32550
out the door 34760.
NO TRADE-IN. Bought in Northern Virginia area.
Where did I buy it? @ Tyson's Corner, VA Infiniti Dealership. Avoid Jim Coleman (Bethesda)/ (they are not good at pricing)
How did I make a deal like that? Cause i'm a beast. Psych. Um.. first day of February I went in and I shopped two dealers out, and they wanted to get a jump start on the month. Also, I had independent financing.
No the car was not a demo. Come on guys. I bought the car with 7 miles on it.
I'm wondering if anyone can beat 400 under INVOICE not MSRP.
Oh another tip, when you go to negotiate, tell them that you saw these cars selling for 600 under invoice online, and then meet at 500 under invoice. Nice right. I know, its true though, I got mine for 400 under invoice and I think if I tried hard enough, I could have gotten it to 600 under invoice. Anyway. Toodles.

I just purchased a new 07 Sedan a couple of days ago.
07 G Journey Sedan
Premium Package
Tire and Wheel Package
Tire/Rim Warranty Replacement
Paint/Interrior treatment ("scotchguarding the interior/exterior")
It also had a light tint(not the factory uv film)
and a cargo net in the trunk(I thought the net was extra So i'm unsure)
$32876+ $50 Document Fee
I traded in my 05 Acura TSX but I had equity in it which I didn't include in the number above.
Did I do well?

It becomes worth it for the dealer to lose $2-3K in a car in order to reach a quota that may pay them an extra $15k. If they are too far off from being able to make a quota, its just another normal negotiation...
most dealerships meet their quota long before the end of the month.
So I asked the manager why it's good to buy at the end of the month then....
He said because the more cars they sell, the more cars they get during the next shipment.

What would I know though? I am an engineer, not a manager/owner of a dealership-
