Ask HN: Community of Car Buyers that Share the Price of their Purchase?
Is there a community on the web where recent car buyers share the type of car they purchased, the price payed and at what dealership? Feels like sharing this information could help others in negotiating a better deal..

[ 2.5 ms ] story [ 20.7 ms ] threadIs there any site where different prospective car buyers can pool or "mob shop" their purchases in order to get a volume discount?
(e.g. I want a new 2013 Chevy Cruze, and so do 49 other car buyers; when a critical mass of 50 is reached within 3 months, the "tilt" buy takes place and we all pay 0.90 * dealer invoice). GM (or one of their high-volume dealers) makes next to no profit on each vehicle but they keep their numbers up. Could perhaps even Hotwire-style it and limit it to (again, for example) "Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, or Toyota Corolla" where you don't get to pick which.
Let me know what you think about having this app, and specifically about this feature and for cars. Thanks
