In addition they allowed profit (4% for our case) over the wholesale value of the vehicle, you can also negotiate for extra goodies (winter tires for example) for being part of the deal.

Coming into the dealer knowing how much profit there is and we also knew about other dealer incentive such as holdback really helped speed up the negotiations. Also, we created a spreadsheet with all the aspects of the t4ransactions so that we didn,t need them to crunch the numbers for us, we did it ourselves.

Chose dealer based on broad selection of models and colours. Used report to ensure negotiations took place on base cost and to achieve an understanding with the sales rep that I understood that while margins were thin I still wanted some of them. Be sure to ask about Manufacturer's Discounts, especially near the end of a model year - I was able to achieve an additional $2,500 (plus HST) off of the final cost of my car.

We decide we wanted a 2011 Honda Odyssey EX-L and obtained a car costs report. I emailed all the regional dealerships, with very specific details of what we wanted and asked them for their best price. All the dealerships responded with quotes and there was a wide range of prices from full MSRP to +4% dealer margin, instantly I knew which dealers were honest and who wasn’t. I went to the dealership with the best offer (+4% margin) and began negotiating without telling the dealership I had a car costs reports. The sales person stated they didn’t have any more margins on their offer and the offer was the whole sale price, but once I told them I had a car cost report and showed them it, suddenly they was room for more negotiations and I was able to get a further discount. In the end we settled for a 3.0% dealer margin and received a discount close to $3000. Without a car cost report I wouldn’t have been able to negotiate such a good deal, and sales person stated I obtained the best deal of anyone on 2011 Odyssey. Thanks Car Costs Canada

Your website is not very user friendly. I would like to see it revamped. . . .Did not mention that I had the dealer invoice pricing. They were pretty eager to deal to get the 2010's out as the 2011's are coming soon. It was very comforting knowing the dealer cost as I was able to negotiate with confidence.

I used the wholesale price as a guide. I did not tell the sales representative that I had the report. I had worked out what I believed was a fair offer and they accepted it. Part of the reason may have been that the Car Cost Canada fright number was wrong.

I was initially interested in the Honda Fit, but with incentives and 0.9% financing, the more expensive Civic Sedan ended up being cheaper overall. I went to Ottawa Honda because we have been going there for many years. Along with wholesale pricing information, the price report indicated there were two incentives, one for $1,000 and one for $500. The sales rep didn't mention the $500 rebate until I showed it to him on the report.

The Wholesale Price Report was critical to my negotiations because it revealed not only dealer costs, but incentives that were available at the time. I took a gamble and asked for the maximum incentive available and then stuck to my offer. The sales rep made 4 trips to the Manager''s office, and eventually they took my offer. I saved $4500 off list!!

We went to 3 dealerships and presented the same price. Only the last one considered our offer. We used the following formula: Wholesale Price - Incentives - Holdback + 3% profit is the lowest that "can" be done but you will not get many dealers to agree with this. We then added a nominal amount of profit above this figure. We believe that if you do not get some serious effort on the part of the dealer to come to terms with your CCC price within the first 15 to 20 minutes, then you should simply leave the dealership.

After test driving the car, and deciding to buy it, I emailed the salesman a detailed offer with everything itemized (taxes, fuel conservation rebate etc). I included wholesale +$600. In the offer, I gave him a chance to accept (otherwise I would email to other dealers). After a few phone conversations, we settled on the price (wholesale +700). I went in, and it was just simple paper work. It was handy to have the very detailed offer in my hand, to make sure thier invoice was correct - there was a $200 charge for something I didn't ask for - I could spot the discrepency right away.

Ottawa Honda was great, I dealt with Bobby over the phone and then went in to sort out the paperwork. Spending the least amount of time as possible in the dealership. Ben Spatafora informed us what dealer in Ottawa to contact. Then I dealt with them to get my price. I then called Ben with the price I got before moving forward with the purchase. This may not have been possible if I didn't deal over the phone.

We came right out and let the sales rep know that we had the wholesale report. The rep and dealer agreed to split everything down the middle. Job done. Other dealers did the old "Let me talk to my manager" routine, coming back with something in between and asking us to play some more. We didn't want to play, we wanted a fair, painless experience and we got it at Ottawa Honda.
