Some carmakers are dealing with this directly. Subaru, for example, requires dealers to sell cars at MSRP...and does not allow dealers to mandate "mandatory" add-ons like extended warranties or "paint protection packages." Dealers which violate these rules get their dealer allotments reduced for desirable models/trims. (In the LA area, a dealer that was adding a mandatory $3000 protection package to certain 2022 Outback trims saw its dealer allotments quartered for those trims for the 2023 model year.)
- to11mtm 4y ago> Subaru, for example, requires dealers to sell cars at MSRP I'm glad they do that now. I know one dealer local to me tried to pull a markup on me... 10 years ago (when it was easy to find another dealer that was able to give me invoice due to a TrueCar thing.) I will say, one of the best things about Saturn was No-Haggle, consistent pricing. As relatively pleasant as the dealer I bought my WRX from was, it was still a pretty big 'jolt' compared to my previous experiences with Saturn.
