The person actually selling you the car makes a surprising difference. A friend who worked at a Ford dealership for awhile told me to always go straight to Internet / fleet sales. Reason? Those agents are comp'd based on volume over minimum, not on margin (or how the lot salespeople are measured). End result? If he or she can sell you a car in 5 minutes for over the minimum, they'll happily do so and then chase the next sale.
