Not enough. Leave your number and cc then demand at least 20% off msrp with no dealer fee.
Those rcf are just sitting and collecting pollen on lots.

Why is MSRP so high? Is the performance package always $80? I thought more like $76

In either case, they NEED to get this car gone..I would low ball to $61-62 and see what they do

The ppf may the x factor in that msrp. Perf. Pkg is a ~5600 option.

Nonetheless, I'd try for more

Sounds like you might be able to do a little better on pricing for a 2015.

This car has minimum mileage, right? Like under 20 miles, right? Or is this a "demo/manager's car " with mileage in the few or several thousands ?

At the end of the day, the question really for you is: "Do you like the car, it's combination of colors, and options as a whole?" AND if you DO like the car AND if the dealer rejects your lower counter offer, then are you READY to walk out and continue to look elsewhere for another one? Sure, it won't hurt to ask for a lower price, but are you ready to spend more effort and time looking around (go further out distance wise)? You might be able to spend the extra effort and time elsewhere perhaps more productive?

The car is $10k overpriced from the get. I'd say offer $60k as the slightly used 2015s are hitting low $50s all day every day

That is the exact same options I got, mine ending up being 68 out the door but I bought it December. Honestly at 65, I would be happy with the car. But if you can get away with another couple of thousand off why not. For what I paid I have 0 regrets, except for the fact that it's automatic haha.

The ones hitting 50 are the base models, don't think I have seen a fully equipped one going for any less than 60ish depending on mileage

Agreed...The ones popping up for low to mid $50s are not the one with performance package.

15ks a good starting ground. Back in March the lowest quote was 24% off sticker. So now going on about 2 months, i hope they can offer you that at the very least. YMMV as I know some dealers had said the lowest they could go in some states was about 10k off on a vehicle with a 73k sticker

I have seen an ebay one go for 48k. Only problem was it had 23K miles and the car fax color didnt match the color on the pictures.
