and you basically cant negotiate any more, since that is what your supplier discount is....like most said it can work against you, unless you know what your so called supplier discount is.....which you wont...most places will just say here is your discount, follow me to the busniess office.
You can look up whatever discount you get online, usually at the GM Friends and Family site. Dealers have to follow the pricing to get the "kickback" from GM.
