Bought a new 2005 Coupe with six-speed yesterday from a local dealer for $23,000. Had admired the car on the dealer's lot for some time and found that with the month (and year!) almost over, the sales manager was desperate to move the vehicle before 2007. Tax/title/tags were extra of course, but the final selling price left me room to add the 7/70 full vehicle protection plan and still come in $10k under sticker.

I'm aiming to keep the car long-term as it won't be my primary vehicle, but how else was I going to sneak into a German touring car for that money?
