Ordering a Vehicle

[Audiosaur]

Has anyone ordered a vehicle from a dealership before? I'm thinking about it for my next purchase so I can get exactly what I want. My question has to do with how one negotiates price for an ordered vehicle.

Were I to purchase from a dealer's standing inventory, I'd request out the door price from number of local dealers and avoid the face-to-face negotiation. Can I do that when ordering?

You can, but not so easily or effectively. But your leverage is to let the dealer know any profit they make will not be eaten up with the car sitting on their lot.
