"This new car is hot, everyone pays MSRP. We don't have to sell it cheaper."
A common sales tactic in auto sales. If they have any in stock of your new car or SUV, then it's not in demand or there would be 6 month waiting lists. If your new car is not "in demand," then you should "demand" less than MSRP for your new vehicle.

The Best Time for New Car Buying
Many people ask when to buy new cars. Read our tips on the best time for buying new cars.

When buying new cars, don't trade in a car you owe money on!
I get complaints from people who traded in a used car they owed money on to buy a new car, and 2 months later were shocked to hear the new car dealer did not pay off their car loan in 10 days as promised. With this scam dealers pay you less for your trade than they promised. When the bank calls, YOU are responsible. The car loan is still in your name, until the dealer pays it off. When buying new cars, if you trade a used car in, make the dealer put in writing that he will pay off your car loan in 10 days, or no deal. Then he is liable.

Early Car Lease Termination Without Penalties? Taking Over a Short Term Lease?
Shift your strategy away from terminating an auto lease early, trading your car and paying huge penalties. A better strategy is transferring your car lease to another person via an auto lease trade. Sites like Swapalease.com and LeaseTrader.com can do a car lease swap for you, and reassign your auto lease to another buyer, saving you thousands. You can also use them to take over a short term lease, where the previous owner already took the big depreciation hit.
