I'm under the impression that you want to buy off the lot and not wait for an order delivery. If that's the case, finding a dealer selling at MSRP will be difficult. Use the database that Grayson73 just posted to find a dealer and pay for shipment or plan to do some travel to pick it up.
Yes. I prefer the Form Results table which I can copy and paste into Excel and filter. index/dealermarkuptracker - electricvehicles
That's interesting, thanks for sharing! I'm happy to place a custom order, so I suppose that helps. I spoke to two non-markup dealers in the last week - one in Richmond and one in Williamsburg (thanks EV & Chill above). Both can do custom orders, but the first one stated 8 months and the other said 4-6. Is there really a difference between when different dealers would receive custom orders? Richmond is my local, but I can drive to Williamsburg to pick it up if it arrives sooner (it's a hassle, but it is doable).
Well, I stopped by King Kia in Gaithersburg, MD earlier today. Did't get a chance to get surprised, unfortunately. They have a single EV6, a Wind RWD in Runway Red, on the lot, which has been over there for at least a month already. The window sticker lists a "market adjustment" of $7,500. The "sales representative" quoted $5,000 and offered to reduce it by a few hundreds, but definitely not thousands. He claimed that they have the smallest mark-up in the DMV area, which might actually be true. Clearly, they are not in any hurry to sell their cars.
Also, Mark McLoud at Williamsburg Kia. Am in process of ordering one at MSRP. Be advised that certain interiors and options becoming unavailable (e.g,, no black interior with Runaway Red, no GTL mud flaps, no cargo cover).
I've had good experience with the Honda part of Herson's in the past, so they indeed look like a better place to deal with. But they currently don't have a model I'm looking for, a Wind RWD, so there is nothing to negotiate about. I do check their inventory regularly, though. Good to know that they are willing to compromise on the price. Thanks for the info!
I purchased mine on 4/27 from King KIa for a 2k markup. I worked with service manager Nan Wong and salesperson Jose Vargas.
I'm working with Jose from King Kia in Gaithersburg on an EV6 GT-Line. He's selling it to me with a 5K markup. He was telling me that because of the demand there's no way he can bring it down after I made a couple of attempts to bring it down closer to MSRP. I haven't even talked to the sales manager yet. Did you provide any other quotes from dealers or did you simply play the haggle game with him until they budged?
I got my GT-Line at Charlie OBaugh in Staunton, VA at MSRP + $499 doc fee. That was about 5 weeks ago.
I don't have any intention to pay 5k over the MSRP price. It's the lowest from all of the dealers that have a GT-Line in their lot or in transit. Most of the dealers in DMV have mark ups from 7-10k average. The only two dealers who have given the lowest mark ups over the past three weeks were Dulles Motors Kia and King Kia Gaithersburg (5k). I've gotten most dealers in the area to lower their mark ups by 2k at the most before. One dealer in NJ lowered their mark up by 3.5k (from 10k to 6.5k). They, too, have mark ups of 7-10k average. They're selling fast here and it's looking like people are buying at dealers initial mark up prices.
