They might not go below the sticker price, but if you are a returning customer, they sometimes offer to throw in some extras free of charge.

You're still getting screwed even though they throw in the extra items. Unless you are paying cash for the car, that's a common sales tactic that dealerships will use.
You want to get the best deal on the car itself b/c once the payments start so does your contract.
Invoice or below what all of you should be getting, especially in this weak economy. I'm absolutely against the Scion's Pure Pricing. The car as well as the options have invoices so there is no reason why you shouldn't be paying more for either.
I had a really great experience with
Carson Toyota's Internet/Fleet Sales when I bought my '05 Tacoma back in Oct 04. None of the Toyota dealerships in San Diego were receiving the particular Tacoma I was looking for until Nov/Dec. I was requesting a double cab, 4WD, Super White, Off Road Package and with the tow hitch. The Tacoma Sport (all color matched and 17") wasn't arriving until Feb/March and was an extra 2K.
The fleet saleswoman, Gloria, showed me the invoice prices for both and showed me the logs of when a white, dbl cab with the Off Road n tow package (OG it was called) was coming in. Told me what she can do, I countered, we went back in forth and ended up driving my truck home for $200 above invoice.
I went to Longo and Toyota of Hunington Beach and kept getting so much b/s that I walked. Toyota of HB even wanted me to fill out a credit application before they can show me anything; even though I showed them that I was already preapproved with my credit union. Longo wasn't expecting any 4WD's for a while so they couldn't help me.
