I bought my car through Price Club.  The only hitch was they made me
buy a whole truckload of 'em. :-)

Seriously, I'm glad someone else mentioned Price Club.  I bought my
92 Accord EX through them from Stevens Creek Honda.

The fleet sales guy showed me the dealer invoice price, subtracted
dealer kickback, and then added 3%.  I also got discounted prices for
interior and exterior treatments and my car alarm.

The Price Club deal was better than I was able to get through a broker
(I priced several of them).
