Reducing ADM with purchase of maintenance package

Has anyone had success in negotiating a reduction in an agreed upon ADM by purchasing a service agreement or windshield replacement package from the dealer? If so, please share any details. Thank you

From my experience, it is all based on the dollar value of add-ons. I am trying to get a deposit on a Lexus LC 500 Inspiraton edition convertible right now and one dealer said they would sell it at MSRP but they wanted an interior/exterior protection package, window tint, and some stupid App that would track the car if stolen, which they claim is worth about $10k. I told them I have my own shops doing PPF and ceramic coating and I could care less about some App so they said I could skip it and just add $10k to the price! Needless to say, they did not get my deposit. I think you will find the same thing with the G so they will try to get you one way or the other.

Dealer profit on maintenance is minimal. Best bet is to let the dealer arrange financing.
