Hi all,<br /><br />I am going to be purchasing a New boat.<br /><br />Here's the Specs:<br /><br />2004 Lowe Fish & Ski FS175 w/ 90HP 2-Stroke - $12,299 (Price includes Dealer Prep & Dest.)<br />- 90 HP 4-Stroke (Upgrade $2,008)<br />- Swim Platform & Ladder (Option $350)<br />- Bow Cushions & combing Pads (Option $480)<br />- Fish/Depth Finder (Option $200)<br />- Swing Away Trailer Tongue (Option $150)<br /><br />The dealer quoted me Out the door @ $16,758<br /><br />OR<br /><br />2005 Lowe Fish & Ski FS175 w/ 90HP 2-Stroke - $15,299 (Price includes Dealer Prep & Dest.)<br />- 90 HP 4-Stroke (Upgrade $2,008)<br />- Swim Platform & Ladder (Option $350)<br />- Bow Cushions & combing Pads (Option $480)<br />- Fish/Depth Finder (Option $200)<br />- Swing Away Trailer Tongue (Option $150)<br /><br />The dealer quoted me Out the door @ $19,758<br /><br /><br />So basically they are giving me $3000 off the 2004 vs the 2005. No discounts on any of the options.<br /><br /><br />FYI: Lowe lists the 2005 Fish & Ski FS175 w/ 90HP 2-stroke for $17,324 MSRP + Dealer Prep & Destination + Tax & Lic.<br /><br />Does either of those prices sound fair? It looks like they are discounting about $2000-$2500(ish) w/Dealer prep & dest. off the MSRP. <br /><br />How much can be negotiated? If boat dealers are like car dealers, I know there is extra margin because they assume you will negotiate, and I don't want to be the 1 person that pays full price, but i don't want to do like some and try to completely screw the dealer either.<br /><br />Thanks for the help,<br /><br />-TheChad
