I'm looking to buy a new '21 Versa and wow, my local dealer tacked on $2000 ADM (Additional Dealer Markup) on the addendum sticker. This on a bottom feeder car; all other Nissans there had $3-5000+ ADMs.
I went down the road to a not-so-local dealer and they had the exact same car and price but no ADM, so needless to say I'm dealing with them.
Is this a thing now? Yeah sure, COVID, labor "shortage", chip shortage and so forth...but on a cheap car, a sedan "no one wants", manual transmission "no one wants", they can't possibly be serious.
(Bonus question: Does anyone have a '20 or '21 Versa with manual trans? They were redesigned in '20 and are very impressive, not at all like the previous penalty box that they were.)
