I think in many cases an ordered vehicle carries the same level of motivation from the dealership to off-load as an inventory car. Just negotiate the same either way and get the deal sheet in writing. You should be solid. However, walking from an ordered vehicle at your local dealership won’t generally serve you well on your next car.

This is actually what got me in my I5 M60. I was busy looking at the window tag and wife said “hey look, hanging from mirror”. It said price for 36 month lease and i was happy with that price. Deal done after test drive 😂. Told them I’m sure there are others like me that hate the idea of the “haggle” and just want to see a price and if they feel the price is worth the value, no need to haggle. Some will say “you always have to haggle”, but i disagree that it’s not leaving meat on the bone if you are really happy with the price:value.

I use the analogy of 6 pack of beer and a large pizza with 8 slices. most want either one extra beer or extra slice to feel like they got the best value where I want an equal split and a nice party
