I paid 22,900 for my 2013 MT with 50 miles on it when the 2014's were about to hit the lot.

And.. It'll .. Be an.. Automatic.
I don't think that is a bad price for an automatic at all. You can't negotiate tax and title. So that is about $2400 right there. $27,500 out the door essentially means you paying $25,100 for the car. Invoice on the car was $28,000 so you are getting it for about $3000 under invoice. Do you know if there are any other options on the car? Invoice might even be closer to $29K. Folks have to remember that the automatic is more expensive than the manual. I really don't think it is bad. Can you do better because it is a 14? I mean you might be able to squeeze another $500 or so out of them, but you might be better off negotiating in free oil changes, or some extra options like all weather floor mats, etc.

just fyi @thill , you're talking about MSRP and not invoice. Invoice is the price the dealership "pays" for the car before holdback and reserve. if you are truly getting 1-2k below invoice, you are doing a pretty darn good job. a good deal is only one you think is a good deal. you seem to have found at least close to the bottom of that deal in my opinion. don't stress over a couple more dollars when you could be already driving it!

What you should do is go to Edmunds.com or KBB.com and search IN YOUR AREA to see what people IN YOUR AREA are paying. That's how you know you are being quoted a fair deal. Auto prices vary by geography.

You can also switch up your zip code in those searches to see if people in other areas are paying less than in your area, which can be handy to figure out whether to go look around in the next city over, for example.

I'm not too familiar with the NY market for BRZs/FRs', but you can do better on the price. I paid 3k under MSRP, for my '13 BRZ back in the summer of '13. And, keep in mind that the demand was higher back in 2013.

That was invoice pricing I quoted. Straight from KBB. MSRP was well over $29K. He is paying about $3K under invoice, remember he has an automatic which is more than the manual. It just comes down to whether he thinks $3K under invoice on a 2014 when the 2016 are shipping soon is a big enough discount to him. As others have pointed out so much of this is regional too. Just because someone on an opposite coast from you paid less two years ago does not mean you will. And it is the internet where people tend to exaggerate everything.

Damn, I called and someone made a deposit on the vehicle. The manager will let me know if he's going to buy it or not on Monday.

If you do get the option to buy it, that does sound like a decent deal. I paid $25800 for a limited 2014 with a bunch of accessories back in May last year. Since we are looking at getting 2016's pretty soon, the 2014 should be available much cheaper. But then it is an automatic and that should negate some of the possible price drop.

$21k.

I see a slight dent on the passenger side door (not that noticeable) that i'll try to speak to the manager about. Also lowering the price.

FYI, I got my 2015 BRZ Series.Blue here in Chicago last October for $27,350. Out the door it was $30,020 thanks to our high taxes and such.

^^ my total cost was +/- 50 bucks from yours on my 2015 limited brz auto w/ add ons too.

yeah the tax rate blows here as well. I tried to figure it out exactly but its set up in tiers by dollar amounts... so i said f it and used a rounded up number, using 9%
