We have a thread dedicated to normal dealers, it’s time to dedicate a thread to the ones to avoid.

Name and markups. Anything else you feel is a shady practice as well is welcome. Add some type of proof as well to avoid issues.

This can give buyers a chance to navigate the market better.

Hope you find a CE at MSRP in the Gulf states, it is next to impossible, all of them are asking at least $10-15k, especially in SE toyota area.

I've got a huge list of gulf states dealers that are both good and bad. Ive got a couple deposits down at MSRP places and am on wait lists for others that wont take deposits. I think I'll be able to find at least one.
Most cores around my area (outside of the city) were sold at MSRP or like 2-3k over. I can deal with that as I at least have a chance to negotiate it down. Really the big dealers are the issue. They are the ones charging 10-15 over.

Ive def seen that sort of pricing consistently in SET. Most guys over there in Alabama and Florida want 10k over minimum. We haven't actually received any circuits yet, at least as far as I can tell, so its kinda hard to gauge what pricing will be for them in GST.

The cheapest I found that is available to buy is $5k over for CE and $10k over for Morizo... sometimes you may have dealer that have a waiting list and those people on the list either pass and can't afford the ADM or get a loan approval. I do get call from them that they want to see if I am interested but still they are asking for $10-15k over.. which is crazy. The one for MSRP have a long waiting list but only expect to get 1 or 2 car this year. Even you are next inline when they got the options or color you don't want, do you still take it @ MSRP? For me I rather pay more then getting stuck with a color or options I dont like.

Romeo Toyota was listed as MSRP dealer, don’t believe it. First GRC the owner kept, ok fine, second GRC is going to wholesale / auction. Playing games and skirting the rules to say they’re MSRP. Posting here for anyone else who’s on the list and waiting at this dealer. I couldn’t even get them to agree to sell me the next one they got.
