Attn CANADIANS: Where/how can we find out dealer invoice?
Americans are lucky in that they can check out dealer invoice at edmunds.com, and other sites I'm sure. But where on the web, or elsewhere, can Canadains find out how much a dealer paid the manufacturer for a car?
I'm not focusing specifically on MB. I'm curious about all manufacturers and makes.
TIA,
David.

I don't know
But our prices are already a lot lower than those in the USA and in Germany too, so in the big scheme of things, who cares? I imagine the dealer margins are pretty lean up here in the Great Wet North 
Don't you already have your car anyway? If so, it's just so much water under the bridge. Let it go

Never mind, I found some sites:
http://www.carcostcanada.com/en/
http://www.carquotes.ca/
You have to pay for the info though. Oh well, it isn't too bad.

Dealer list doesn't really matter b/c you are in Toronto. My understanding is that all southern ontario benz dealers are factory owned, thus there is no incentive for the "dealers" to undercut each other.
At most you might be able to haggle for a free CD changer...
I hear Montreal area is no better, the "dealers" are not factory owned, but all owned by the same guy...
