Default Do your research.

For a new car, find out exactly what the dealer’s price (or “invoice”) is on the vehicle you want, right down to the optional alloy wheels. Quincy says he configures the options and then asks a few dealers for the best price they can give him. With a site such as Consumer Reports you can tell exactly what the dealer paid, including “dealer holdbacks,” the secret money the factory will pay to the dealer if they sell a certain amount of cars. “Just say, will you take 3% over invoice?” he recommends, a slim, but fair, profit for the dealer.

What exactly are you attempting to point out here? These "nuggets of wisdom" are akin to someone saying "water is wet"...but this post is as pedantic as they come. Perhaps you should share with us what Audi you have and what you're looking to do with it on the forum?

This is just one of several "nuggets of wisdom" from this poster. He/she would be more at home at Edmunds, instead of wasting space on this forum.
