Agree completely. Have not heard of anyone out here getting a mark-up, and in fact I've talked to a few people who got their dealer to knock $1k, $2k off of MSRP for being a multiple car, long-term customer.

Yes. Since MSRP is just the SUGGESTED retail price, dealer's can charge whatever the market will support. The question is, who's dumb enough (or just has money to burn) to pay a mark-up. That is guaranteed, 100% depreciation the second you drive off the lot.
