Totally agree here.
...also, don't be afraid to walk out that door, if they won't give you something off the price, or include something with your purchase. No one is forcing you to take the deal. You be in control, otherwise they have you.
Choosing something that is in-stock will give you more weight as they want to sell That unit first, rather than incur the added expense of having to bring another vehicle in from somewhere.
If you can't get any money off, then ask for something included, or some things worth x number of $$ (be realistic - they have to make Some profit).

If you can get a newer model for a lower price, go with that one!
I had my Dad help with the negotiating since he's a retired Lawyer and Judge, having owed 2 Saturns before where it was no haggle, we held our ground even with the sexy woman used to sell undercoating. Got a 2014 Corolla LE for just under $18,000 from Jim Coleman Toyota. My Dad used the USAA buying service when he got his Prius, I was eligible too since I'm also a member but we just used hardball tactics.

Buy online (toyota.com, build & price, then get internet price. Internet sales are the same salesman that do fleet so they want high volume and cars to go out quickly so they can move on to the next deal). Better deals. Sticker on my 2014 S was $22,800 and I ended up paying $20,300. Of course I got the extended platinum warranty and pre-paid service for five years so he somewhat got the money back, but it would have taken the car another $2,500 higher, and I could have always declined it.
