Question From Paul:  I got an offer from a dealership at 15,605 for a 2008 Kia Optima EX (V6) for the appearance package.

Is this a good price?

Queen of the Road:  Hi Paul. Welcome to AutoBragBlog. What is the MSRP of that offer? What I can do for you is compare MSRPs with one of our deals and see if the percentage discounted is as high.

Lots of cash incentives available here. Be sure to claim them at the time of purchase. Well, you’ve got prices, now what?

Print out all the blue links above and take them to your local Kia and Suzuki dealerships. But before you go, we recommend you call and make an appointment to see the Internet Fleet Manager because he/she should understand what you mean by “internet prices”. Stay away from the floor salesmen, go straight to the Internet Sales Manager.

If they aren’t buying into your prices, ask to use one of their computers so they can see where these figures came from. It’ll be impossible for them to doubt you because you’re pulling up another Kia/Suzuki dealership’s website and checking their inventory. Remember, cars are a commodity so these prices apply everywhere in the U.S.  A car in Nevada should cost the same in Florida. The taxes vary by state.

At the end of the day, this is your hard earned money. If you don’t feel right paying a certain price, walk away. There are some dealerships out there who believe in doing business the right way. Goodluck and keep us posted.
