Well, on a brand new 2017 custom build 4S (rare as it is) the MSRP was $140k and the dealer gave it to me for $131k. Drove into Brooklyn from Warrington PA to sign the papers.

I can't beat the crap out of them after that.

I'll accept the windbreaker - and I'll see what PCNA can do that will NOT harm the dealer.

But yes - they are responsible just like we would be if we subcontracted work out and the client had a penalty.

If my math is correct, you got about a 6%, an average discount.

Congratulation! A heck of a good New Year's gift.

So I'm a bit late to the Holiday celebration as I was up in Washington for Christmas with family. My SA sent me the first photo to let me know it made it from Houston like the rest have posted here. The second photo is my car next to some red and white model..... Better pics when I pick it up on Sunday! The 35 year wait is coming to an end!

The exact numbers meant just shy of 7%. I thought that was rather good for a brand new custom built car where 4S allotments are not in abundance.

I got 7% on a custom '17 c4s order and am happy to get it. It's a good deal, IMO.

I got 5%, and that's decent. 7% is exceptional. 6% is NOT average. It may become average over the next several months as the model year gets older, but it has NOT been average. I would say average is closer to 4-5%.

Especially on a car like a 4S which is in high demand with low supply.

Essentially, on an MSRP of $140k and change - I put $5000 down (my deposit) and my payment is $1895 / month for 39 months.

Had 4 or 5 quotes of $13000 down and north of $2000 a month. You all probably remember my original thread of "prices are insane!"

I feel it would be tricky to prod the dealer to give me back December's lease because of the plate issue.

Asking PCNA for something seems viable - but not if they will dock the dealer.

There was a whole thread about this and the average seemed about 5%.

I got 6.25% off my build in early December. I feel I probably could have done slightly better but the build slot I wanted was going into lock the evening I put my deposit down. A little more off msrp was not worth another 1-2 month wait for me. There is quite a bit on competition in the north east and for anyone in this market I would aim for a minimum of 6%

I got 4% plus a bit on a Turbo S custom build scheduled to freeze Jan. 17 and to hit production mid Feb.

I am happy to get an allocation AND discount!!

I did a bit less than 1Gunner at some 3% on my 17 TTS Cab. I am fairly new to the PCar world, and my dealer, only 3-years. I was happy as it was 'my' car speced just the way I wanted.
