No disrespect but you're confusing invoice with dealer cost. Dealers do not pay invoice. There's more to it.
Every dealer pays the same price for the same car. Period. The invoice is the same. The holdback is the same.You do realize dealers don't actually pay invoice right? Sure, w/ hold back and destination, there's more to be figured, but they don't show you dealer volume incentives. Typically the factory will offer a larger volume dealer more incentives that won't be reflected on any invoice you'll be shown.
Yes, there are other incentives that will affect the dealer's profit as a whole, but that depends meeting other quotas which may or may not be met. The invoice less holdback will tell you how much a car costs the dealer NOW. It is not correct to base a dealer's cost for a car based on any extra incentives they may or may not receive in the future after you've purchased the car.
