Its the same. I went to 2 dealership in MI and 1 in Canada. I found that I knew more about the car, prices, and incentives than the salesman. I also found that whatever they don't know, they make up.
Of course, I've also had experiences at GM dealers, Toyota dealers, and Honda dealers. I think Toyota dealers are probably the worst. You want to hear a horror story? A co-worker's relative won a Toyota Highlander fully loaded (valued at over $40K canadian), contacted the prize people, set up the dealership to pick up, and went over to the dealer. The dealership tried to get her to sign the papers on a base model. The only way she found out was that she was told it had leather seats, and the base model did not.
When I brought an oldsmobile Alero, (I work for GM ok?! ;-), the salesman "forgot" to put in the $1000 rebate that was discussed and agreed upon. He tried to "forget it" in the financing calculation. If it wasn't for the fact that my wife calculated the payments before hand, we would not have caught it.
Another friend, who brought a Honda manual civic, and got delivered an automatic with an extra $1000. He didn't read his agreement carefully...
What can you do? Just be careful.
