NOTE 2 - Calculate based on an AUTO. If you bought manual, add an additional $2,000 to your purchase price
NOTE 3 - If you didn't get metallic paint, add $350 to your total before voting. If you got extras like a spoiler thrown in for free - subtract their retail price (eg $500ish for a spoiler)
I don't really want to start a pissing contest (I think polls work as an anonymous survey?), I'm just interested in finding out how low a dealer can really go into their margin before they would be losing money - I haven't dealt with new car sales before, so I'm completely in the dark. Also those of you who paid Retail or think you might have gotten a better or worser deal - remember different states, country vs city, and different waiting periods (7 months!!!) will get you different discounts - and now times are getting tougher, discounts are dwindling as well. Bigger discounts can also return worse service.
Cheers.

But then again, Dad sponsored 20k... and I traded my car in... so it's basically free. Only 1.8K out of pocket.
At least I didn't have to take the NAB 12.9% student loan!!!!! And I have decided basically to drive this car to the ground just because I hate what I paid for it so much.

yea car prices up here (infact nearly everything up here) is way dearer then down south :eek:. Isn't the price of a car supposed to be the same all over australia??? or is some tax that makes the difference? dealer delivery maybe???

You have to make adjustments as per his instructions if you have a higher model... Guessing you paid about 28,000? The "onroad" costs like registration and third party etc.. also vary a bit state to state...
