Is $1000 worth the one month wait?

I'm talking to 2 dealers right now and the first one sells the car for MSRP and with $389 doc fee and the car is availble now while the second dealer will discount the car by $800 through Costco program and will only charge $200 for doc fees but the car is in transit and is due to arrive 4 weeks from now. I'm now trying to talk to the first dealer if they can match it and see what happens and if not, I think the $1000 discount is worth the wait.
Hmmm.... Let me see what can I spend the $1000 for...

same color and options? Go with the one that you would prefer more. I wouldn't let price be as big of a negotiator as teh actual options on the cars, unless they are the same

Up to you.

If you have 1k to spare yes.

If you don't no.

Also note it's october, when you get your car it'll be november.

If you have winter than you lose a month, but that $1k can go into coils/tires.

Up to you.

I would wait, but then again I've been waiting for SIX months for the one I requested. Hope Costco can deliver the car when they say they can, unlike my dealer.

FYI on the Costco thing, if you have http://www.buyersedgeinc.com/ as a company perk or access to it some other way, it works similar and will get a good price with participating dealers. I used it on my mustang and it saved about another k after my previous negotiating.
