Last week we bought a new 2012 Outback. The car we had in mind was in stock and we went to the dealer. My wife had done most of the research and had the print-out for the car with the MSRP. While discussing it, I noticed on the print-out there was something printed on it that said "GET EPRICE." This was the first I had seen it and my wife hadn't noticed it either. I showed it to the salesman and asked, "What is the EPRICE?" He basically dismissed me saying it really was insignificant and that the price would be "about" the same. Since my wife really wanted the car we went ahead and got it at the MSRP.
This morning it started to bug me and I decided to check and see if this EPRICE was really "insignificant." Well, I went online and clicked "GET EPRICE" for another car from our dealer as well as for several others. It turns out all of them were at least $2,500 less. The EPRICE from our dealer was over $3,000 less. I feel ripped off.
I intend to call them on this try to "renegotiate" this thing, since it seems patently unfair and that we were basically lied to. I'd be interested in any thoughts others might have. Thanks.
