Now to me that's a pretty okay starting point considering that's with PP, and it's possible they'd come down after negotiation (of course, I can't know that until I'm ready to make an offer on the car and such). I don't think paying MSRP is (almost) ever a good idea.

I too called a dealer a couple weeks ago about a 2017 BRZ, and he said he was selling 3% over invoice or something.

I don't think a BRZ is a fair comparison to make because it's not a brand new model. Most people who wanted the BRZ back in 2012 already have the car. The initial demand isn't there anymore.

Just look at the Focus RS. It seems like some people are pretty happy paying MSRP. Ford dealers are having a hard time keeping them in stock, so why should they sell below MSRP?
