Since it is a Scion :(

Just wanted to know how they sell their cars... either you cant even negotiate, or lets say if you buy from this dealer they will give u some rims for buying from them? if that makes any sense haha

+1.
I learned from my friend who used to work in a Toyota dealer that they earn about 5-10% profit even they sell the invoice price. Dealerships are different.
I don't think we have to care how much they make because they are not going to lose selling every single current year cars in the lot.

You care how a dirt bag earns his or her money? Most salesmen I've met are liars and thieves. I'm not saying all are bad, I've had great experiences at Nissan Dealerships. The rest I would call stealerships.

As for OP, just go to their website man.

id also like to know how scion works since ive never had to deal with them...i priced out a tc just for fun and I see they offer accesories when building like springs, rims, nav etc. so im wondering does the dealer install these before you get your car and the labor is free or are you just paying msrp for these parts then the huge labor fee on top of that?! if they charge labor then theres no way id get any dealer options.

I wonder how ordering online works. Because I'm very likely to do that, unless there's a limited edition I can only get at the dealer.

I'm going to threaten the Salesman's family to have them lower the car to its "actual" MSRP. :>

Lol

If you click on the magnifying glass next to the prices of the options/accessories it says those are the installed prices, then gives a brief description and image of each item.

EDIT: That's from me looking on the scion.ca website btw. Not sure if the scion.com website is the same.

The process is pretty much "I want that one with X, Y, and Z" and "here's my money." No negotiating. At least that's how it was when my friend bought his first gen xB.
