I told them if they would sell me the car at dealer invoice I would fly out the next day to purchase the vehicle. About 4 out of the 7 contacted me back within 24 hours. 2 of those went $100.00-$200.00 over invoice and the other 2 were $500-$600 over invoice. I went online and determined which dealer out of the 5 was cheaper to Fly to and drive back from and that's the one I chose.

This saved me $3000+ of what all the local dealers would give me. It also allowed me to skip the whole, "hey would you like an undercoat, top coat, anti theft, blah blah gargbage with the sale because I had to get the exact amount of the purchase price over the phone to give to my lender to overnight them the check. I flew out the next and enjoyed my 6 hour drive home in my new Z.
that is hardcore, i dont have the time for something like that, work and school give me 0 free days, most time i have free is 6 hours on sundays
