No. Negotiate your best price and them take off the rebate! The dealer is just saying that to you.
They don't want to sell you the car at a bigger discount because it is very likely that someone will happily pay sticker price, minus the big rebate. Good luck!

Actually guys, neither is correct.
GM Cars have 4 pricing tiers if you read their documentation.
MSRP - which we all know
Cost - which is what the dealer pays
Employee - a discounted price, set by GM, for employees and family of employees
Supplier - a discounted price set by GM for employees of compaines that supply GM with parts or supplies.
The 4 prices are on the invoice when we get them from GM. And the dealer is correct that supplier price is non negotiable. The dealer is reimbursed a portion of that discount from GM. You are allowed to deduct any applicable rebates or incentives, or take the GMS financing rate if you qualify. You must have your company's supplier ID in order to get this price, so make sure you ahve all the info you need.
The GMS price is the second lowest available on a GM product, with the employee price at rock bottom.

I don't think that the dealer is telling you the truth.
The dealer has already boosted the tag so that he can make money.
If you or your spouse are a union worker, you are eligible to participate in the MVCP.
My husband and I go through the program called The Motor Vehicle Certification Plan (MVCP). Since he is in a union, we only pay $500.00 less than the Dealers cost (not the sticker price), which means that we never have to negotiate a price. We call the 1-800 number and the MVCP tells us where the car that we want is located, we go to the dealer ask for the person assigned to us, we test drive the car, sign papers and drive off.
Good luck.

Correct.
**Edit --- The asker is inquiring about the "supplier price" (or factory price, if I'm reading it correctly), not the dealer's cost or retail. The price that the dealer paid from either the supplier or the factory IS fixed.

in case you get the valid enterprise cost then no, those enterprise and worker expenditures are set by the manufactorer and sellers are no longer allowed to alter them under penalty of huge fines. some flow even further, with Ford sellers are no longer allowed to "throw in" something with the deal on enterprise or worker cost deals, a $40 set of mudflaps loose to the customer will fee the broker $10,000 in fines. Im undecided what GM's fines are yet Im confident there are comparable. Many sellers around me deliver out a observe to all the worker's of specific companies that they are going to get a "enterprise" low fee in the event that they arrive purchase at that dealership, it particularly is not surely manufactorer enterprise low fee, its in basic terms an advertising trick by the broker. in case you have been recommended of your "enterprise" low fee by a dealership and the manufactorer hasnt given you any information approximately it then it quite is possibly in basic terms the broker attempting to get you to come back in and purchase something. If thats the case then the fee IS negotiable and the broker that despatched you the records can't sell you the vehicle any further low-fee than the different broker. The pretend enterprise low fee they supply you continues to be possibly incredibly low-priced nevertheless and that they wont have that plenty room after that.
